Anime Girl Playing the Violin Music Instrument Drawing
This is the last of my series of drawings featuring maidens playing musical instruments. I need to get around to brainstorming a new series of cute little practice drawings. I am still working on my pose practice sketches. This is just about what you can expect in the future as far as drawing blogs are concerned. I might also do some new fashion dress drawings. Now, it is time to learn about the violin. The violin is also known as the fiddle. The highest quality version of all violins was made by Stradivarius. Such instruments usually sell for a couple...
Dollmore Vampire Candice and Company BJD Doll Photoshoot
Today, I did a nice bjd doll photoshoot featuring my vampire doll Candice. She looks more like a ghost girl, than a vampire. It works just as well. I wanted to have a creepy looking bjd doll, and she fits the bill. For this photoshoot, I feature her with my oldest bjd dolls. It is amassing how this doll collection thing started.

Doll Chateau Ashley in Rose Dress Photoshoot
Today, I got around to changing up a bit the dresses of my dolls. For now, I decided to focus on my Doll Chateau Ashley. I dressed her up in the dress that came with my kitty cat doll. The wiggle room of the dress allowed it to be a perfect fit for my Ashley doll. The thing that followed was setting up the background. I think it looks a little bit more varied. I need to get a little bit more props. As part of a gimmick, I also took photos of the doll focusing...
