| THIS DOLL IS UNFINISHED Chris was so happy with Remy, that he asked me to make another doll. This time of a character he hadn't even designed yet. This would be my frist Cat-girl project, and I created Tethe'alla (MY doll, not yet posted to this site) as a cat girl, to experiment and get used to the techniques of ear and tail making. |
| Stancie |
 |
| Since the character hadn't yet been designed, Chris and I collaborated on the details. This first pic (left by Chris, right by me) is after quite a few changes. She started out with "mixed browns" for hair with a purple streak SOMEWHERE, and eventually it was changed to milky pink pigtails (to cover her human ears). At this point I suggested star hair holders. The color of the ears changed a few times, as well as lip color. Her eye color was set from the start. He wanted YELLOW. We had planned on EB Beauty S body with "A" type head. |
 |
| Then the day I received the parts, he made even MORE changes, putting her in a ponytail with red streaks. This is his "final" design guide. |
 |
| There weren't any unrooted "A" heads available at DHS at the time, so he ordered a prerooted head in the same hair color as my Lily. As I expected, the part ripped while I was unrooting it. I was a bit glad when he ordered a ponytail instead of pigtails, since it would be easier to cover the split that way. In the package with the prerooted head, and the payment body, the EB Beauty S wasn't there. He ended up buying an EB B, which comes with an unrooted "A" head. I was a little upset, because I had completely wasted a prerooted head, in a very nice caramel color. I did use the prerooted head for Stancie, though, so its not a total loss. |
 |
| Then came the cutting off of the human ears (bt request) and initial rooting. The hairline is a bit unatural, because I wanted to cover the empty space where the human ears would have been. Those two trailers were put in to fill some very large holes left by the Volks rooting machine. Her ponytail is up in the star hair holders in this pic, and is complete. Chris wants to cut her bangs himself, so I've not cut ANY of her hair. Then the bangs and colored stripes were added. At the LAST minute he changed his mind on the color of the stripes. The "Ruby Tuesday" color from Restoredoll.com is VERY pretty with this milky pink (also from Restoredoll.com) |

 |
| Here's a better look at the colors. The streaks are only four plugs wide. This may change if Chris wants more of the Ruby Tuesday. |
 |
| ALSO at the last minute, he decided he wanted Stancie to have eyes just like Tethe'alla. And he added some green to the design. I used a very light yellow-y green, so it doesn't show well in pics. He did get his VERY bright yellow eyes, though. He was thinking they could be sisters, which is quite impossible. Stan = + whiskers, - human ears Teth = - whiskers, + human ears Maybe half sisters. Here her whiskers aren't rooted. I've marked where they go with a light flesh colored paint for future reference. |
