Happy Valentine's!
I made some little red velvet truffles and cupcakes ♥
And also some specially designed red velvet cakelets : Sachiel the third Angel (from Evangelion) !
I thought of making chocolate initially but was inspired by the idea of Angel's from a friend (follow her here: Chiaki's Blog). Since this is also an all-time favourite series since childhood of a friend, I've decided I could make some white cookies/cakelets in the shape of some Angels; and red velvet became my choice! Red velvet: the red inner flesh and blood of the Angel...oopss sounds more like Halloween? ;D
Red velvet cake + truffle + white chocolate + Evangelion = appropriate, perfect for Valentine's!
Lovely Orire (Pullip Ayanami Rei) modelled with these lovely cakelets! ♥
. . .
Just some basic red velvet cake ingredients to batter~ But I think I added a little too much cocoa powder? Coz the colour turned out to be darker lol
Make some cream cheese frosting while the cakes are having a sauna in the oven ~
One part for a whole cake, another saved for some cupcakes~
Cupcakes are done for now; but cakelets and truffles are not!
Crumble the whole cake~
Mix the crumbled cake with the prepared frosting~
Roll into tiny balls (for truffles), roll and shape into Sachiel shape (for the Sachiel cakelets)!
Not very neat work :P And they look more like meatballs, no?
Place them into the fridge to harden about 2 hours~
Melt some white chocolate melts in double boiler.
Cover the truffles and cakelets with the melted chocolate, and let them to set!
Before the chocolate sets, just add some decorations for some love!
And ta-da~!
Red Velvet Truffles ♥
and Cupcakes~
For someone special who loves Evangelion, and who brought me to like this epic series too; Sachiel the third Angel as red velvet cakelets ! ♥
Was supposed to use chocolate chips as the eyes, but I've forgot to buy them DX
Heart-shapes work well anyway lol
This is how it looks like inside! Gore-y, red and fleshy isn't it? ♥
My white chocolate coating doesn't look very nice but presentable, and most importantly tastes yummy and feel loved! :'D

Be my Valentine

On the first day of the Chinese Lunar New Year (which fell on a Sunday this year), I woke up really early as usual everyday. No one was up yet, and it was bright sunny day, so I decided to give Kafka a custom modification of her face-up.
I have always wanted to mod her face-up but was a little afraid to do so; coz I am still not confident to do the eyeliner and eyebrows for Dollfie Dream D: But I got myself to do some slight modification also in the end. I can't bear to see Kafka look so plain and her looking like a basic DD Rise Kujikawa!
DDs are easier to get stained, that was my main worry. Thus I have had her head and body coated with more than 4 layers of MSC.
Can you tell the difference between double lashes and single lash?
I have had single lash applied on Kafka when she came home to me; but it wasnt really noticeable D; Might be the type of lashes I am using as well. I am using some super fine brown eyelash specifically designed for dolls. I am planning to get some DollyWink's eyelashes for her next time :)
Ta-da~
No major modifications; but I see some obvious difference :'D Just added blushings on cheeks an eyes, added more colour to the lips, drawn a more noticeable eyelid.
Took this photo with my phone, so colours may not look so vibrant ;;
. . .
Be my Valentine series
To go with the occasion, I dressed Kafka up in some red, which is in line with both Lunar New Year and Valentine's Day :D

Be my Valentine?
All dressed up for the occasion *
. . .
First day of Lunar New Year brunch! Steamed xiao long bao's (dumplings), pan fried crab & pork dumplings, dried shrimp & shallots dry noodles and fried rice (-∀・*)
And dessert: we have baked pastry with red bean filling!
And watched a really good movie: Django: Unchained!

Inspiration?
signed on Thursday, January 31, 2013
;
I haven't been drawing for a long time :(
Which is a worrying thing to me; it feels like I lack inspiration.
So I took some initiative to start sketching again few days ago.
Evern, my most favourite OC and one of my oldest OC in my life, since I was 2nd grade in primary school(?). She is like a time and dimension traveler to me lol. Coz she makes appearance almost in all of my stories as one of the characters in there, either main or side characters.
But some things always stay the same: she is a red-headed (although the tone is always different), red coloured eye, practises and uses magic, have a childlike body and appearance, has a twin brother (Efrain) and has a sleeping third eye on her forehead. I think I should write about her third eye in another post though lol.
Getting the inspiration to start sketching her again coz I have finally found the (almost) perfect doll sculpt (SD-sized) for both Evern and Efrain, they are one of the rare cases of identical twins but different gender ;) . Both of them are always in my list of must-own BJDs. Hope to have them home with me soon ;_;
Another fanart sketch. The Fire Panda~
Can you tell who is she? :D
Before ending my post,
New coloured lenses ! (◕‿◕✿ฺ)♡ The DollyEye and Twilight series; DollyEye is my favourite next to Geo because they don't give super goldfish enlarging eyes effect (´∀｀；) Hopefully I can do some lens review when I start trying them on!

Zidane Tribal
of Final Fantasy IX
;___;

Anyways...just wanted to post about the progress and photos of the cosplay actually ;_;

Edging done~

Made Zidane's earring :3
100911
Leather ~
:3 !
Finished this on the day itself... Needs refinement works ;w;
It is
Zidane's Ultima Weapon!! ;w;
I should make his daggers coz it is easier to pose with daggers than with Ultima Weapon... oTL Btw, I failed so much in portraying expression and posing for Zidane... hmm mainly coz of lack of confidence and there wasn't enough time for me to get into the mood of being in the character (since I arrived and changed later...) ;_;
I do not even dare to look at photos taken by photographers oTL I'm so sorry...
Sorryyyy....oTLLL
I don't even know now if I want crossplay anymore or cosplay as Zidane again ;_; but I love Zidane and Final Fantasy IX. My favourite male main protagonist of Final Fantasy series :3 Oh note that I did IX and not Dissidia, even though Dissidia's costume has more details and looks nicer. FFIX FTW, NOT DISSIDIA!
The voice for Zidane in Dissidia is good though ~ =w=
And also, Zidane is pronounced as zih-DAHN
Hmmmm...
Maybe just one photo of my Zidane cos will do...
I think I look okay in this photo..Thanks, Usagi!

Met up with Flo last few times before she left for Japan. Friday night we had 'unhealthy meal' and Saturday attended the doll meet she organized.
Still one of my first dollmeets. And considered as my real real first one coz I got to know people and Eli (I brought Elijah out on this day) finally got to interact with lots of new friends ;_; We are slowly feeling not so out of place.
Sorry coz I didnt get everyone's name and their beloved children's names ;_;
But thank you so much for being able to meet with all and also the privilege to take photos of their beloved children! ;_;
First photo of the day features Lily's dearie. A very lovely VOLKS Kira ;w;
