Yikes! This is just the first post I've done in June O_O I need to focus! Also, I haven't taken a lot of photos of MEIKO or any of my girls lately aside from Doll Meet photos... So here is a newly upgraded MEIKO complete with spats (sport shorts)! In this picture it seems like she's saying, "what are you trying to do? You can see up my skirt with these shorts!"

| Heterochromia MEIKO is gazing into your soul! |
It all started with a very small meet; and when I say small, I mean 3-5 people. It felt more like a workshop really because we did maintenance, sewing and other things... And when I say "we", I meant the host, lol. I can't really sew or use the sewing machine ^^; One of the things I did though was try out different sizes of eyes for MEIKO. She does have nice eyes, but I always think they're too big because her eye slots are really small. The ones above are 18mm glass eyes. Even though they look big, the eyes seem to small for the slot and would require too much putty for my taste.

These ones are 20mm eyes. I borrowed them from
Flamebyrd. A bit big, but I think they fit alright. So I'll go with the 20mm eyes... As I've told
Gabihime who is making MEIKO's new eyes ^_^
This is the reason why I wanted to get sport shorts for MEIKO. Her Project Diva incarnation had it. I thought she wore it before, but I guess it wasn't until Project Diva that she had the shorts.
So here she is! The upgraded MEIKO! I do need to fix up the length of the shorts, maybe even remake it now that I've seen how it's done. I can already see some people frowning about the black material on DDs. Chun and I have actually tested this fabric for at least a week (maybe more) and it does not stain. Plus, she's also been sprayed with Mr. Super Clear (MSC for short) to prevent or at least make it easier to remove stain from her body.
Pardon the lighting ^^; I'm still new at taking photos at home for my girls since they were all set up for figmas XD
Crack! I gotta fix the back of the shorts too. Either add more fabric or redo it with the back in mind.

| "Don't take photos from the front, perv!" |
Ehehe ^^;; Missed some stitching in the front so it looks like she's got easy access there XD
The meet host also made a quick black pair of panties for me. Looked very granny-like panties, but looks nice when it's on MEIKO.
Lasto shoto!
Meiko looks great!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! ^o^
DeleteI love those purple eyes you've got on her in the one pic...
ReplyDeleteAh whoops... I forgot to mention that was Liz's (Flamebyrd) ^^; She does look quite lovely with those, eyes, eh?
DeleteOoo nice nice!
ReplyDeleteThanks thanks ^^
DeleteNice sports shorts! It gives Meiko more of a sporty look and suitable for dancing too!
ReplyDeleteLoL ya, now to somehow make her move on her own XD
DeleteShould give us a close up shot :P I can't see the face.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of staining, one week doesn't necessarily guarantee no further stain can happen down the road. Since staining is a transient process which is dependent on temperature, humidity and how tight the clothing is pressed against the vinyl, there is no absolute answer ever. Best to learn how to deal with the stain so you won't panic when it does happen.
Mmm, I've been lazy with camera work, lol. I'll give her more attention next time. Mostly been focusing on the shorts XD Well I kinda left the fabric on for more than one week really. It's been on my spare part for the longest time, but yea, I guess it depends on temperature too. So far I did get stain on her, but found a zit cream that works well and the major stain is now gone :D
DeleteThis look great. are you giving her a head phone soon?
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'd love to, but since her head is SQ-Lab, it's quite smaller than a normal Volks head. I did try a headphone on her before and it didn't fit very well :<
