A New Cat

4/5/2020

2 Comments

 
I finally finished the new cat my friend sent me.  I needed her outfit to be similar to something one of my MSD size dolls wear, so that I'll have an option of having a human and cat version of the same character in the upcoming story.  So I chose to copy one of Bianca's Outlander outfits, since that would fit on a JID lady as well as the FID it was made for......

 I think I'll call her 'Lucy', after the friend who sent her to me.  She will be the castle housekeeper, doing all the running and fetching, all the organizing, as well as being the Queen's personal maid, and helping out in the kitchen. So, one very busy kitty....

She has a removable fichu, and an apron covered in 'flour' paw prints....

I think she turned out really well, and think she has the nicest face of all my other cats.  So now if the mood ever comes back, I can get to shooting my cat story.

She looks wonderful and has a gentle face. The matching Outlander costume is terrific. I love the floury paw prints on her apron.

Everyone will be looking forward to your cat story. Hopefully Jan will be home soon and you'll both be working on doll projects together again!

I guess we'll see. I had shot much of the beginning of the story in early March, but there were a few filler spaces I had still wanted to go out for again, but then when Jan got really sick they never happened, and now definitely won't. I hadn't processed the photos or started the story because of the missing spaces, and didn't want a huge gap, but now I'm just going to have to work around them.

Maybe next spring if the world and Jan go back to normal, then I can always shoot the missing photos and insert them.

Another problem is that I don't feel especially motivated or creative right now, especially on days when I've had too little sleep.

But at least with this cat finished I can continue if I feel inspired to do so.
