Two Little Adventurers

I have a few posts lined up over the next few weeks (another unexpected, random purchase and the mystery Pureneemo has shipped). But this post is about my two little adventurers.

I'm not sure if I ever mentioned that Rune is actually my game character from Fantasy Life (for the Nintendo 3DS). In the game she is primarily a combat class Mage (but I also have her learning the Paladin class at the moment).

In my game, she has light blue hair. So I decided to try Isabelle's wig on her just to see what it would look like. And I love it on her. She finally looks like the Rune from my game. The fringe needs a trim but other than that, I think the colour is perfect for her. Lucky, I had ordered a pink wig which Isabelle can wear when the order comes in from Luts. I still need to make her a dress befitting a mage at some stage.

She's claimed Scrappy for herself. The poor thing has seen better days but what can you do?

And the first of many comparisons (I'll post others in another post at a later stage). Rune with the vinyl Monster High Ghoulia. (Rune is a YOSD sized doll.)

Now Rune is the only one of her size here. Sure, she hangs out with the Tinies from time to time but I thought, you know what? She really needs a friend. (And I also created an archer class character in Fantasy Life recently called Meridian.) Some of you who have been a longtime reader of the blog may recognise the name as once belonging to one of the Shushu girls.

I've been thinking of getting Rune a friend for a while now but I just hadn't really decided on who. I had considered Bluefairy Shiny Fairy May but I've been reading on the discussion threads that the company is changing the body for that size. I actually like the current body's aesthetics. Whether the original body will still be available is anyone's guess. I also have no idea what is going on with their website as the dolls are marked "Available soon". If anyone can enlighten me on this, that would be fantastic.

The other contender (and a strong one at that) is Luts HDF Choco. Luts has the added advantage of being able to get this doll in real skin brown rather than just the normal skin (as with Bluefairy). I've also gone ahead and added a wig style and eyes (both from Luts) that would suit the character of Meridian. It also doesn't hurt that I actually love Luts default face ups on their dolls quite a bit so I wouldn't feel the need to change it.

You know me and those chibi makers. I used this pretty well known one by gen8. I redid the Chibi of Rune as I recently changed her hairstyle in the game to a long one instead of her original short hairstyle. I also did one of Meridian. I'll also be tweaking Rune's profile slightly. Xanadu's question on a few posts back about completing the elements I am using for the Tinies gave me an idea to group both the YOSD and Tiny size to cover these. (Thanks Xanadu!)


So that's it for a lazy Sunday night. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend or what's left of it for those of us in Australia.
