My Chem Dolls

Hey guys! I was just updating you on the My Chem dolls and well, things aren't what you were expecting. I have been busy coughbeinglazycough so the Frank doll isnt finished yet. But, on the bright side, Bob is done!! Frank's hair is just so fricken hard! Well, I will keep you updated and pics will be up as soon as Frank is done. :)

My Chemical Romance Dolls :)

Hello! I have been drawing out some designs for some My Chemical Romance dolls. In case you don't know who My Chemical Romance is they are a alternative rock/punk band. I am basing the dolls of the 2004 look so their ex-drummer is still in the band. :) So, as of now I have drawing designs for Gerard Way (lead singer) Ray Toro (Guitarist and back-up singer) and Mikey Way <3 (bassist). I started my Frank Iero (Rythm guitarist and back-up singer) but, I haven't finished it. I still need to do Bob Bryar (drummer) before I start designing. I will keep you updated so watch my blog for more info. :)

P.s. Pictures will be up after I do Bob and Frankie.

Learning to Spin

So, I know this doesn't have to do with amigurumi but, I thought I would share this. I got an etsy account and bought a drop spindle. I also got some roving. I attempted spinning but, I failed. It was because of my failing-ness in drafting. :( But, lucky I only used hardley any of my roving. My mom said she would help me draft and then I could spin! Yey! :)
