Thank you all for the very nice comments on Clawdeen when I posted her! I feel very awkward that I don’t know how to respond to reblogs without reblogging my own post a bunch of times. @oak23, I had acually originally planned to put the ears on the side of her head cause I love your Blaine but I decided I wanted her to be hyooman.

Anyway, seeing as that post was my most popular ever (!) I figured I should get a couple pictures of her dressed for y’all. She has a BFC Ink shirt, Ken shorts, a mystery sweater, Avea’s leg guard things, and her original boots which I cut down.

Frightfully Tall Clawdeen custom! Fun stuff. I promise her head and body match in real life, I didn’t change the color of either. That’s just the camera being weird.

Anyway, I did the very obvious eye surgery thing using an exacto knife and diamond files. The head glue was, as others have noted, super weird but at least less gross. I positioned the eyes up considerably higher than the painted eyes so she looks pretty different. The eyes are 16 or 18 mm – I don’t know and I honestly don’t remember where I got them? It is a mystery. I did her faceup BJD style, it was fun.

The wig was also a fun experiment, and it hides the fact that she has no ears. It’s a very lazy plastic-and-painted-masking-tape hard cap with glued-on tibetan lamb that I got from the trim of a $1 skirt from a rummage sale at the local children’s theater, which is probably the weirdest possible source of specialty craft supplies. I have no idea why that skirt was trimmed with that.
