this will be short

song+ Defying Gravity- Wicked- Original Cast Recording
book+ batgirl fanfiction. thanks kyu! xD
scent+ cheddar and sour cream baked lays.. my che3at for the week.
quest+ getting to where i don't suck at dolling again.
upper+it's almost the weekend!
downer+ i still have to work tomorrow
attire+ pants(!) and a black undershirt
drink+ nothing.. i'm out of milk.

i finished the 'surprise' doll for mom, but it's been a while, so i was a little dissatisfied and did another one. xD it's the colouring on both i'm not thrilled with, but the animation on the second one turned out pretty cute, i think.. and very mom. i already slowed it down as much as i could, so i hope y'all can tell what's going on with it. xD they represent the two activities mom talks about most: knit night and dances.

anyways, the left doll is the original. i don't know what mom's "don'tcha" shirt looks like, so i made one up since i wouldn't be able to fit the whole phrase there anyhow. knitting purple socks, because i'm sure it's been done at some point.. the right doll is the second one. i'm not thrilled with how the compression required of an animated gif messed with the shading i slaved over on the dress, but there's nothing i can do. *shrug* i tried. it's the "famous red dress" that was retired some time ago. i also tried something different for the hair. mom, your hair is really hard to doll, just FYI. it's supposed to be mom flirting, i just hope that's what it looks like. xD

credit for both mom bases goes to apitchu orchard. i got the base for my new icon from here, it's heavily edited by me, but credit is still due.

I love them both. Yes, there have been purple socks, and there will probably be more of them. And you really captured the spirit of the Famous Red Dress.

Love you! Mean it!
