 No matter what I put as my banner I just seem to make it more awkward.  Official Tumblr for Batchix Dolls Http://batchix.g36.net   

I took about 10 minutes today to style the doll @batchix gave me, and grab some quick photos so I could experiment with lighting. The pants/overalls are a Scrap PDX, the dark wig is a @funnylori freebie, and the sweater was a cheap find on Amazon. I dunno why, but this doll keeps giving me such 80’s chunky style vibes. SO. If I can take decent portraits of a doll, how ‘bout you come sit for me? Let me try to figure out lighting? Take some portraits I can use to make art? To some degree I can drag lighting and stuff with me. Sorta depends on if a car is available.

I LOVE THIS. She's a blackberry little parfait. <3

This! Is an actual outfit I was PROUD of! those are shorts. I was hoping it was my leather skirt but no. After I got my breast reduction all faux modesty was out the window and I wore as little as possible. My friend Tim and I, black sheep of Greenville High School. that shirt was so damn pretty. the boots laced to the knees and had no zipper. So your girl was unlacing and lacing them back on before and after gym every fucking day my senior year.

circa 1998

Guess who’s the same size as my old lagoon(muerta head is shown) sculpt! I wonder what it would look like it I swapped heads?

Muerta is a handmade Lagoon skull like @u4bik ‘s Skuld. She’s like 10 years old now! I can’t remember but I think her skull glows in the dark.

Made Cookie decent for IG real quick. Hurray for hot glue! I got the hair on Aliexpress and made her this wig! I love the way it turned out. Her looks were inspired by 1960’s dolls- especially furga. She poses great, I’ve hot glue suedes her joints. The one thing I might change is to give her different hip joints instead od the balls out look. Also, last picture, she has cellulite on her butt and I love it. 

She's mature MSD sized, so about 42cm. I'm trying to see if there's interest in a preorder for her. She'd probably be around $425 or so for the blank doll. She'll have high heel feet with heels she can wear and I may make some more hands for her.

Anyway, if you're interested in her pass this around! the more people I get interested in a pre-order the sooner I can start it!

I made another beaded top. :) It’s a bit too sexy for Skuld so it will go to @robotsandfrippary for one of her personal Lagoons.

Skuld is a @batchixdolls Lagoon slim MSD ball-jointed doll with a hand-cast faceplate.

Ohhh I love the colors you chose. And all the textures in that outfit together 😍

v. v. v. excited for the top! It's beautiful!

Archelaos is a Doll Menagerie (AKA MarmiteSue) 2nd Gen Venus ball-jointed doll. He’s about 45cm, I think?

3D printed Unikerms are by @batchixdolls ! And all beaded jewelery is by me.

In August 2019, I held an auction for a doll face up of any kind in order to raise funds for the El Paso Community Foundation. The winner was my dear friend @u4bik, who is not only the most patient soul on this Earth, but also owner of one of my most favorite bjd characters, Skuld. They asked me to paint Skuld's human faceplate to have skull themed face paint but with space in the negative spaces. Two of my favoritest things! Her flesh was dusted with white and pearlescent pastels while everything else is watercolor and mica powders. We contemplated adding iridescent starburst glitters but opted to go with painted stars instead. In order to slightly make up for my tardiness, I made a pair of resin eyes. One pair with white scleras (top) and the other with black (bottom), but both filled with all the glitter and shinnies! I am so happy to know this face plate is back home safe and sound and it was such an honor to paint for them ❤️

Here's a video that shows the paint differently:

GORGEOUSSSSSS

Oh Shit! It’s a Lagoon! 

At first I was like, “Wow, that looks so great and what a pretty face.”  then I realized, “WAIT I SCULPTED THAT.” lolol

For ref here’s what Lagoon’s human face looks like: 

Skuld is one of five? I think? encapsulated skull heads I made about six or seven years ago.  They aren’t easy to do and people were MUCH pickier about bubbles back then so I stopped producing them.

Thank you for providing that info! I was too excited to upload the photos that I forgot to ask for the sculpt name, and when I did get the info I got distracted and forgot to update this before it spread. Good job me. But I'm very happy to see what a human-y Lagoon looks like! XD

No worries, babe!  It’s all good. <3

Or you can message me at batchix@gmail.com and order direct from me.  This is how you can open layaway as well. 

Happy Pre-order my darlings! We’ll have two colors possible, one is soft violet and one is lemon frosting! These are approximations of the colors since I don’t have samples, so there may be differences in the final product(and screen calibration being what it is). Layaway is done through invoices, please DM me or email me at batchix@gmail.com and lmk your PayPal address and order. It’s $100 down and the rest in 2-3 months. PRE-ORDER WILL BE OPEN ALL OF JUNE AND POSSIBLY JULY IF THERE IS INTEREST!! These ladies are $350 each(I’m sorry but production costs have gone up 😭). Shipping is $22 US or $70 for international. I think Canada might be cheaper?? And I’m willing to ship en masse if there’s someone who wants to do a group order to save shipping costs. They come blank and face-ups are $60. Face-ups will be done traditionally, not with the ink I use on my prints. They’ll all have the new hands as well! THIS IS THE LAST PRE-ORDER FOR THIS BODY. I will be updating and redoing her now that I’ve got better tools at my disposal and so I don’t have to constantly lament my mistakes. 😂😂😂 ALL THREE HEADS ETA, DELTA, AND BLIP ARE AVAILABLE. Extra head is $60. Only Blip and Delta have cat ears, I might be coerced into adding the helmet if there is enough interest. I’ll set up BINs on Etsy either tomorrow or Saturday depending on time, until then you can buy direct by messaging me here and I’ll shoot you an invoice! Love you all so much, thank you for all the kind messages!!! It’s so wonderful to hear how much you love these little girls. I’ve had a lot of negativity aimed at me in the past and it’s made me gun shy. Knowing you love these ladies makes me unbelievably happy!!

YOU CAN NOW ADD A HELMET TO YOUR ORDER!  

Helmets are $40 each. <3  

Emilia is making a short video series on how she creates tiny wigs with hot glue. I'm going to be giving this a try soon, it looks just my speed! The way she manipulates the glue makes the caps nice and thin, and would work up quickly (instead of waiting days for pva glue to dry).

And I think the glue gun she's using is a variation of this one. I already ordered and received it; it feels so light and I think it will work really well.

I tried this out yesterday!  It worked really well!

I live in an art/craft supply dessert and our michaels doesn’t carry very many glue guns so I ended up having to go to hobby lobby where I found a SUPER low temp hot glue gun.  Like Emilia I have high heat tolerance on my fingers from years and years of hot glue and metalsmithing and what not, but this super low temp gun(that has a long nozzle) doesn’t burn my fingers at all. 

Also good about the low temp gun, I’m pretty sure I can use it on synthetic hair.  I used it on acrylic roving last night.

Ignore how messy it is. I love big hair on dolls and I can’t wait to curl this up!

Also I have a pre-order open for Little Parfait in Hazelnut skin tone(shown)! It’s darker in person.  $200 plus shipping, specify 9 inch(comes with both Cherry and Blackberry face-plates) or 11 in(choose which face plate you’d like).  She fits in all kinds of 1/6th clothes!  The 9 inch even fits in some Monster High stuff. 

Send me a message if you’re interested. <3 

I have three 9in Little Parfaits in Strawberry Milk skintone still up on my IG!  She’s $200 + shipping.  Face-ups are $25 and body blushing is $60.  Both are done in alcohol ink which may stain the doll if it’s removed(91% alcohol will take it right off).  I work better with the more water-color like nature of the alcohol inks and it’s more durable as well. 

Shown here wearing a Kikipop dress with a blythe petticoat.  She comes with two open eye heads and two solid heads for painted eyes as well as heel feet with shoes.
