Description >w< Doll!Faustus got adorable new glasses today, and what belongs to Faustus belongs to Calliope, in some way or another. ;//w//; She looks so cute in glasses oh my gossshhhhhh
Now I want to get her some of her own because she looks just as awesome in them as Faustus xD
Q//A//Q CALLIOPE Y U SO GORGEOUS ASDFGH
-shot-
Funny thing is, when I originally designed her character she wore glasses as her brother Faustus does, but I decided shortly after that she would not wear them because the way I drew her with them it made her look too cynical and mature (and too similar to Faustus xD). But, I've always wanted her to wear glasses at some time or for something, so I think in alternate reality/ modern day i've decided to make it canon. though i'm sure she doesn't actually need to wear them, its just a fashion statement xDDD

TuT Its really nice having the dollies around. Lately i've been feeling really out of it and just "off", but whenever I see them I am really happy and excited about everything to do with them which is amazing because rarely ever do I get passionately excited for anything. Sewing silly things for them or working on them and stuff helps clear my mind when school and drawing become a little overwhelming. Just a minute ago I was feeling a little off, but something as simple and silly as putting glasses on Doll!Calliope and taking some pictures made me feel so much better in an instant. ;u; <333
Like literally I just set her on my desk and did that then took a picture, hence le super crappy photo xDD lol
...xD Thank goodness some legit clothes will be coming in sometime soon for the dollies because wow I can't sew for crap haha. Calliope what are you even wearing haha <333


Anyways sorry for dollie spam. I spend a lot of time with them when I can't focus well on art. I'm thinking I might make a flickr account for dollie photos soon because I take so many of them and I should not be spamming them so often on my DA xDD

;__; I uh, guess its better than not posting anything though...right....?

Just wondering, what kind of materials did you use to do the lovely face ups on your dolls?

Oh, Waifu, just thought I'd let you know, the picture of us in super chibi form I told you about in your livestream will be put into action quite soon ^_^ It'll be uploaded to my PsychicSeal account, hopefully, unless I come up with some better username in the next few days, which may happen because I'm still not sure if I like PsychicSeal... Gaah, I'm making such a big deal out of this Dx

You could always try making your own! :0 they wouldn't look exactly like those glasses but you can try making some simple square frame glasses using some wire
Granted they'll probably look really silly but sometimes silly works <:]

i think the clothes you make look amazing. The materials and patterns you choose are so playful for her!
I miss making doll clothes. ;w;
I never had much material to choose from though, but I made do. The last time I made clothes was for my friend's OC plushie-- one friend made the doll and his default clothes, and I borrorwed him and made him some casual clothing. It was so much fun! Sewing is s relaxing.

o//A//o T-thank you! I-i'm glad you think so....!
>u> Hehe, yeah! I love finding awesome patterns! xD The cool thing about Calliope is that she has an eccentric style, so I can mix a buch of silly patterns and get away with it xDD -shot-
o3o Oh! Actually, A really awesome way to find cute material is to search "Japan fabric" on the website Etsy. You can find tons of kawaii style patterns with the cutest colors and most are really well scaled for dolls too! <333 IRL Fabric stores are kind of hit-and-miss i've found in the cuteness/originality factor and its hard to find properly scaled prints there as well, so yeah I get a lot of my fabric from Etsy. >w<

;w; Aww, that sounds so cuute!~ >w< Sewing is really relaxing!
;3; W-well hand-sewing is for me at least. The sewing machine kind of intimidates me...OTL
