Okay, I've finally decided to do it.

I own a permanent LJ account, which, because Dolls and writing are generally my life - gets very little love.

So instead of making this a paid account and letting my perm LJ languish in non-use, I have decided to locate any doll posts (which, let's face it are the majority of what I talk about) at my actual home.

I will be announcing any doll posts clearly so that those friends over there who hate them, or are scared of them, can scroll past.

So, please don't be alarmed if you see a random journal called: [info]arithion friending you (I'm pretty sure I got to everyone on my friends list already.) I'd love it if you could friend me back, I enjoy my doll friends list very much, but I really need to condense myself and actually use the account I've paid for (which has FAR MORE iconspace available :) )
I do understand if you choose not to friend me, but would love to keep the friends I've made here ^_^

Anyhu - yeah, that's it.

Sooo, today I decided to clean up and update my User Info - in the process I realised that Chaos had arrived on the 12th of May last year, and I've effectively missed his birthday, AND managed to like never give the little devil a photoshoot with him complete LOL

So, without further ado - here is my devlish cuvil little driving force with his obsession of knives/swords/stabby things - and I swear he runs the household.

So in the last few weeks, both Psydas' Wig and eye(s) have arrived. Sadly I won't be able to buy his military outfit for quite some time - but I've thrown together something that's as close to his needs as I can come to at the moment (even though I can't show his arm scar with it *sniffs*)

So today, we did some photoshoots - the rest of which I'll post at some stage, but nevertheless here is my Psyda - half complete ^_^

I have an complete and utter fascination with ice-trees and branches. I'm not sure if many of you know, but I was born in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia - aka a place with NO natural snow or ice to speak of.
Since coming to KS, USA - I've been fascinated over the last couple of winters with the way ice trees look. That's what I call the branches of trees covered with ice hehe. I love it.

So, last week sometime, I stole out of the house early and took pictures of my ice-prince (Charon) in front of some ice bushes on some nice, fresh snow. Sorry they're all rather similar, but I think he suits this type of weather best.

I promised myself that this year I would post more pictures of my little ones.

I realised yesterday that I don't think I've ever shown my Chiwoo Elf Twins together. Uriel has had his body since end of last October, and I've not given them their own photo shoot.

I love these two - they're probably the most vague of my characters. Uriel appears in about 3 of my stories, versatile little shit, and Charon my little 'pimp' of a ferry man is a little more selective.

Well, enough babbling - here are a few picturs of them together, and apart. I feel better for having taken them :)

So, about 3? 3.5? years ago, I started writing a story called Psyda, about a boy, you got it, called Psyda. Originally I based him loosely on a moon, but when I saw the Scarface - he took over.

He is a military general. He was kidnapped at a young age to prove a political point, but due to circumstances, it is against his homeland that he fights.

So, here is, after years of wanting, my Psyda - not with the right eye, not with the right hair or quite the right outfit, but at least he's home.

Now, not many people on my flist know Sage, or have probably ever seen him. He was the 3rd doll I ever got way back in Nov of '05 and when I got him he was already almost 3 years old. So, he's an old boy, and I love him.

He was my original dream sculpt - Customhouse Gene (or Jun?Jin? I always get confused about the non english name lol). But I saw him on the marketplace 2nd hand and the rest is history. Didn't even tell me his name until he'd been here for 2 weeks. And as he developed, he became a God - an evil god in a short story I wrote - and I came to realise his face up wasn't right.

It's taken me about 7 attempts to get him right, I've wiped him more than any doll I own - but I can say he's perfect now.
Spent hours on him on Saturday, and all his history aside - here is my evil little god, in all his glory.

Sage, I love you (even though you probably don't care ;))

I have a new girl. No, you didn't misread, I actually have a new girl.

I've loved this sculpt since [info]mienaihane got one. Before then I'd thought she was pretty, but seeing one in real life, made me NEED one. Still, I've never been able to bring myself to get a doll I don't have a character for.

But - she won me over, and here she is. I thought at first I would call her Idalia, but it just doesn't quite fit, and now I'm tossing up a few names - Ashke and Aishke among them... but again, not sure. She doesn't have her own wig (stole Kians), no clothes, and no shoes, just the lovely eyes she came with. Pics of her trying on numerous wigs hehe Anyway! Without further ado, here is my gorgeous girl.

I know it's late in the posting - but I've been dreadfully ill - still am.

Anyways! Etiyens eyes arrived today - sort of a late Christmas present for him - and now he is complete (apart from the face up I'll eventually get around to)

Really love this boy, I think he's absolutely gorgeous. Can't stop looking at him.

Well - OMG

Etiyen arrived today. I literally got dropped off at the house, and was unlocking the door as the truck pulled up to deliver my boy!

His wig and eyes have still yet to arrive, so he's sort of winging it at the moment - still wearing the default eyes, and a little wig that tends to get a lot of intermittent use around the house - and still of course, with the default face - which I'll probably end up changing.

BUT OMG I LOVE HIM. So much!!! He's just Gorgeous!!!

There would have been better and more pictures if my stupid camera battery hadn't been powering down. I keep touching his face, and hugging him... damn I love him.

It's almost Christmas, which means my Etiyen gets here VERY shortly.

So excited to have him. He'll have pants, shirt, wig and should also have eyes and shoes waiting for him by the time he turns up. It's amazing for me to be so organised. I haven't been organised like this for a doll since Abby came along.

Other than that, I've been working on a few face ups for friends, and generally neglecting taking photos of my little ones. Which is horrible of me, but I still play with them lol. I've been refining the auto photoshop resizing and watermarking. It'll make posting pictures a lot easier since the only part of the photo taking I hate, is getting them ready for posting.

So, how is everyone elses dolly life. I've been reading, I'm just sucking at commenting atm.

Well... see... Abaddon needed an Astaroth, and when a dear dear friend decided to sell one of her boys I've loved for so long... he was just perfect.
Most of the shots are similar but different angels... and some different lights. He's perfect though - in every way, and every expression.

Thank you [info]tsuiraku for making this possible.



Astaroth at last )

So - it's been a few months since I got him, but since it took me so long to find the correct sculpt... I figure it's only natural to get the eyes and hair right too. I'm happier with him that I thought I could be :) He's so very... Mikel :)

Sooooooooo

MY BIRTHDAY PRESENT ARRIVED!!!

I have one CP Yder V Elf - Astaroth :) sitting in pieces in my living room, who I will string together when I have a moments time :)
Much love to [info]tsuiraku for everything and I will take VERY good care of him.

And when I say Birthday present - it means my husband said YES I could get a doll, and used my Birthday as an excuse LOL. It's not like I don't work and contribute too ;) But he is a rather wonderfully amazing husband haha.

So, anyway - expect Pictures in the coming days (weeks?) since I'll also be disabling Photoshop on my old laptop, and reinstalling it here!!!

Also - We went to Resin Con - met a heap of wonderful people AND I got to see Lumedolls in person. I am so hooked. I HAVE to have a Saiph.

Those bodies are AMAZING!!! They hold their position without sueding, and look just beautiful - right down to the tiny muscles in your upper arm. So much freaking gorgeous detail. And Saiph? OMG I'm just in love with that sculpt. Maia would be the second on my list - and yes, she is a girl (please don't drop dead from that information haha)

Sadly, since I already have my Okita on the way for Christmas, I have to wait until after Christmas to get Saiph. But I will because mmmmm yum.

Anyway - while at the con, I got a Fdoll body for Uriel - very close resin match. I'm not sure I'll like it, but if I don't, I can always resell it and know I at least tried the cheaper option.

So yeah - that's Ari's life right now. Chaos got a LOT of attention at the con, and I will have to take pics and post him in his new wig :)

Going to browse my friendslist now :)

Well *waves*

slowly back among the living.

Have a promotion at work... yay, kind of lol. Means I work more, less time for doll things *pout* But!!! More money for them!

Hence, I'm buying a sort of new doll - mwuah hah hah - well, new for me anyhu - an old face for some of you ;). Not sure when he'll be here, but the happy thing is, he'll be here :)

SQUEEEEEEE

Anyhu - Other than that, yes, I have pics to post, but laziness in resizing has prevented me from doing so, I'll try not to be so lazy :)

Thank you all so much for all the pictures you post, to keep me so in love with the doll world :) I'll do better to keep up with the commenting pace :)

Yep, my parents are currently visiting from Australia (SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE), after not seeing them for over a year *sad face*

So, I just wanted to let people know that for the next several weeks I will be scarce, popping in to randomly comment here and there when I get a chance - but otherwise ferrying my parents all around the country ;) Well a few states anyway haha

I'll try to catch up, but I apologize in advance for being a very bad LJ friend until the beginning of August

*hugs you all*

A picture of Chaos I said I'd post and never did ;)



Love those eyes...

Have to sleep now... argh, so busy...

When I first started looking at dolls back in early 05 I wanted to get my Breaking Eternal Characters - the main characters of which are Mikel and Traithan. Kian and Etiyen follow a close second. Mikel has always been extremely hard to find - elusive even.

Until recently - Saw, fell in love, and had to have. Sadly, the shirt and pants I've commissioned aren't here yet, and the wig shop isn't open yet, but he arrived, and that's all I care about :)

So here is Mikel, with his unique way of wearing a suit ;)

It's no secret I love him, but I'm lazy as hell.
It's been really hard lately to find time for pictures and to find weather at the right spare time to take pictures. So in a fit of luck, in a sunny spot between the rainclouds and wind, I took him out and voila

My Abbadon - sorry it's been a long time coming for some people I know wanted to see him.

Soooo if you're wondering why I've been unusually absent in comments lately...

My gorgeous hubby and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary this past weekend :) SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Sooo I wasn't around for the entire weekend.

Get back and I've been a little under the weather, feeling ill, and overall not quite up to anything except giving in to my MMO addiction a bit - but I'm okay now, and trying desperately to catch up on my madly posting friendslist lol.

Still waiting on Mikel *insert curse words here*

Mon!!! I will send monies on Friday!

Anyhu - ducking away now :) Back to work and what not
