trouble begins with “d”

His intended wig isn’t here yet (I’m hoping for a delivery tomorrow), so he’s still playing the role of anti!Justyn. To add to that, I took him out onto the stairway landing today to grab a few more photos using natural light instead of artificial. It suits him well enough!

Definitely need to get him an appropriate eye patch soon. Ideally, I would want something like the patch included with the DollHeart “Fallen Princess” set. Unfortunately for me, I wouldn’t have any use for the rest of the outfit, I doubt anyone would want to give up just the stupid little square of fabric with ribbons, and the set’s sold out anyway. I should try just making my own; even for a complete sewing klutz like me, it can’t be that hard to make. Maybe I should make two, one plain and one with a heart on it. ♥

Augh, I love him, but that wig needs to go. XD

JoJuVi pile-up snuggle in the corner. Take that! ♥

I’d actually taken these more than two weeks ago but never got around to editing them all. Even if they’re not the greatest, they’re still kind of fun just ’cause the three of them are so cute. Maybe by the time I get Vincynt back, I’ll have miraculously gained the skills necessary to take real photos of them together. Wish me luck?

This turned out much longer than I’d planned – I’d originally wanted to only take a couple shots. But Justyn + camera = me going overboard. I just can’t help it with that face of his; the camera loves him, and I love him, and so he gets spoiled rotten when it comes to photo shoots. If he weren’t so pretty and so easy to take photos of, it’d be different.

Alas, it’s not, and you’ll just have to put up with it.

Edit: By the way – Joce is not to let Justyn put yukata (or kimono, if I ever get any) on by himself anymore. Justyn thinks it should be worn comfortably, like a robe, which means…tying the obi in the front. No more of that, J-bird. (He has no idea what that could possibly mean, except that he’s happier with how it feels.) XD

Just some quick shots of Vincynt before he leaves.

I hope no one’s too attached to his current faceup. While it’s beautifully done and certainly approximates the character, I’ve gotten more disillusioned with it since he first came back. The other day, annoyed that I just couldn’t get him to look good in photos no matter what I did, I yanked off his upper eyelashes. That helped some – they were too long, dark, and girly for him – but it didn’t fix everything. His mouth in particular is driving me batty. Don’t get me wrong, the faceup job is really fantastic. It truly is. And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with Vincynt himself – the character – but the faceup just isn’t doing what I thought it would for him.

So, he’s going to be sent off again, this time to Armeleia for facial mods and a new faceup. I won’t describe what I have planned for him quite yet (rest assured, no elf ears), but I really hope that this will help solve the problems I’m having with him. Wish me luck. I hope I won’t miss him too much.

run to you

I know that when you look at me
There’s so much that you just don’t see
But if you would only take the time
I know in my heart you’d find
A girl who’s scared sometimes
Who isn’t always strong
Can’t you see the hurt in me?
I feel so all alone
