Well couple weeks ago (during my last buying trip) I found a new Liv wig that was Rika colored in a different hairstyle, so I bought it. I’ve been debating buying another Ula to make another Rika, probably a DT since I found some plastic people earrings that are music notes so I could just pierce the DT doll’s ears so they’d fit right, but alas no DT dolls so I’ve been waiting. But the other day I said screw it and opened the wig to just put on my Rika to see how it fits and you know…I think it’s smaller. It doesn’t fit as well as the older ones I have, and the head peg is smaller so going to be harder to cut out. And it’s not as well rooted I think; you can’t see here cause I camouflaged it with the glasses, but the hairline is horrible. Now it might just be this one’s hair style, but yeha…sorta disappointed.
But anywyas, new wig, new do, new outfit! I didn’t do a GB when I was doing manips that week cause I didn’t have a swim suit; I’d wanted to make one to resemble the one I draw right, but I didn’t have the right stuff. But I’d just changed Prizma’s outfit and I thought that this suit had similar colors, so I went with it; after all colors and styles may vary from product shown So I printed out her post card image, gave her a towel, and wallah! Instant GB doll
I realized I should’ve added a plastic holder for the raised arm, but blah; that’s how you can tell this isn’t a factory doll then ;;
I’m very happy with how this turned out though; first image of the old packaging I’ve maniped, and I still say that the new packaging is a much cleaner design; mush easier to alter. But I’m still very happy with it ^^ Now if only I could get purple sheer to make her DT outfit
