There’s a press release that Yahoo was going to leave Tumblr’s operations alone so no need to worry if Tumblr will undergo a similar change. If it does, it’s the same old Tumblr staff.

If I were to ever commission a MH doll from you, would you be able to sketch out what your vision of the final product would look like? I know it's a weird (and possibly rude) question, but thanks for taking the time to answer!

Yes, I can do that. I’ve done it for some commissions. =)
He’s a grumpy little bugger!

Do you think it would work to spray paint the body and head white and then colour it with pastels if you cannot find the right colour airbrush?

I had considered this but in some of my experiments, the vinyl paint would “weaken” and crumble when Mr. Super Clear Flat was applied.
Between Brillo (designed to recolor leather) and RustOleum (Car spray paint), RustOleum might be a better candidate since it really sticks to the plastic (via some chemical reaction, probably the acetone content).
I haven’t explored body recolors in a while so please do share your own experience or findings. =)

I can’t help but think that this might be a response to most folks moving towards mobile technology (Windows 8, I still hate you with a passion) and they are making these changes to better fit in with that paradigm assuming that people will just accept them eventually.
Remember when Facebook forced us to change the layout? Well, I still hate that too.
It’s not that I despise change, most changes are a move forward. What I can’t stand is that some changes seem unnatural or are inconsiderate of intuitive user-experience/ user-interface in exchange for something that kinda looks aesthetically pleasing.
That said about their interface, the changes to their subscription model is kind of a huge let down. These changes may be because of the limitation of the changes that they did but it’s unfair to take away some of the really cool things from a paid subscription… like keeping track of your statistics or an easy way to eyeball faves, comments and whatnot. Everything is a huge, loud image now. That must suck for areas where high-speed internet isn’t common yet.

My first Tonner repaint! You’ll be seeing more of her sometime this week.
These dolls are so lovely! I’d really love to work on them more in the future.
Here’s a look at the second cosplay I ever made from the series Sailor Moon, debuted nearly a year ago, at Animazement 2012, I really enjoy wearing this despite its imperfections.
At the time when I made it I attempted using horsehair braid, but I found it difficult to use and understand so I pleated the skirt instead. I have since learned how to use horsehair braid and it is some really incredible stuff!
I made all of the patterns myself (including ones to recover the shoes in satin, they were suede before) exclusive of the leotard pattern which I modified from a Kiwk Sew one.
I wore this cosplay again at Anime Weekend Atlanta 2012 (where these photos were taken) and Roundcon 2012 as well.
This costume allowed me to prove to myself what I thought was impossible, I could make cosplays from my favorite series, Sailor Moon. :) Following this one I made Sailor Cosmos, Sailor Venus, and Sailor Pluto, photos of which I will post at some point. ;)
Anyways, thank you for taking the time to look! You can find more photos and follow my progress, where I update about new cosplays and conventions I’m attending, here.
Photos taken by ZeronXepher, who I’ll be working with again next weekend for photos of my newest Pokemon gijinka cosplay!!
Ugh.. You’re so beautiful!
