Love the little flower frill detail, it's what makes it a proper bunka doll bonnet. ^_^
Thank you Ruth for the lovely little flower it was perfect for this! <3
First MforMonkey set for Wataru. (as incredible as it sounds, it's the first that will be a mass production release)
Hat is PetiteBlythe.
Still considering to make a matching hat too.
For now set will consist of plaid pants, tight white shirt with print and ruffle collar.
First of a few I saw in this rather damp state. How did they all survive so long? I'm baffled.
Seen in a very wet Eugene, Oregon, US.
Former City of Lethbridge public works fleet truck. Bought it off the city last year. Has the 3.9L V6 Magnum engine, rear wheel drive, and is the club cab variant. Currently restoring it to like-new status, keeping striping and decal impressions visible, under the moniker Project White Knight.
Still nameless.
I modified the bathsuit a little but still think I can do it better next time. These, of course as all my girls' clothes, where made in work breaks in speed time. So please bear with the many flaws. ^^

Little Mikan playing bunka dolly with the Odeco dress and tiny BJD bonnet. ^^
Not quite happy with this dress, though. I don't like how the bodice wrinkles everywhere. This is what happens when I sew late at night in a hurry. :P

Summer Vacation 2008.
I have to confess, I erased my hand and finger that was holding her by the top of the head. ^^'
Wish I could dress like this!
Mr. V is wearing full MforM (specially pay attention to the first open button on the shirt, love it!).
New Licca arrived today! She's wearing:
Petite Blythe beret
Mame3 sweater
MforM pants
1. I'm gay, but I love my wives, they're the sunshine in my life and I love to see them laugh.
2. I love photography. I want to become a professional one day...
3. I hate spicy food, except for wasabi. (I love sushi! <3)
4. My perfect saturday would be waking up real early, go running with my pet, afterwards go shopping with the wives till lunch. Then have a quiet evening at home watching V. Wataru sew for his dollies while I take photos. Go out at night to some hot party and come back home just in time for sunday breakfast.
5. I love hats, of all kinds. My favourites are Tibiloo's berets. ;)
6. I love fashion and everything involved. I love to create new trends!
7. I like winter and dry leaves on the ground.
8. I'm not so crazy about summer, but I love summer stroms.
9. I secretly dye my hair (I'm a natural blond).
10. Sometimes I feel like starting my own band and tour around the world. Bad thing is, I don't know how to play any instrument or read music scores...
11. I'm a shoe fetishist.
12. I like to wear glasses, even if my eyesight is perfect.
13. I'm good at finding new jobs, but not so good in keeping them. I wonder why...
14. I have a tattoo, but I won't tell you where it is. ;P
15. When I was a child I wanted to be a veterinarian, only I thought that meant a plant doctor.
16. I miss Mr. V. Wataru very much. He said I had to took care of his wives while he was away (he went to a SPA in Japan and ONLY took one of them, the nerve!). Vintage girls can be hard to please, they've been through so much in life. It's really hard to arrange their hair! :-/
The Pinzgauer is a family of high mobility all-terrain 4WD (4x4) and 6WD (6x6) military utility vehicles. They are manufactured in Guildford, Surrey, United Kingdom, by BAE Systems Land & Armaments. The vehicle was originally developed in the late 1960s by Steyr-Daimler-Puch of Graz, Austria, and was named after the Pinzgauer, an Austrian breed of horse. It was popular amongst military buyers, and continued in production throughout the rest of the century.
The original prototype was developed around 1969 and production began in 1971, as successor of the Steyr-Daimler-Puch Haflinger 700 AP 4x4 light military multi purpose offroad vehicle. The Pinzgauer first generation model (710, 712) was produced until 2000 by Steyr-Daimler-Puch in the city of Graz, Austria. It was, and is in use in many armies around the world like Austria, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Albania, and Bolivia.
The Pinzgauer is one of the most capable all-terrain vehicles ever made. While not as fast (110 kilometres per hour (68 mph)) as the American Humvee, it can carry more troops. Even the smaller 710M can carry 10 people or two NATO pallets. Both the 4x4 and 6x6 models can tow 5,000 kilograms (11,023 lb) on road; and 1,500 kilograms (3,307 lb) or 1,800 kilograms (3,968 lb), respectively, off-road. It has a range of over 400 kilometres (249 mi) on one tank of fuel, or nearly 700 kilometres (435 mi) with the optional 125 litre tank. The first generation Pinzgauer is available in both four-wheel drive (4x4) (model 710) and six-wheel drive (6x6) (model 712) versions.
The Pinzgauer was designed to be reliable and easy to fix; it is shipped with an air-cooled dual- Zenith 36mm NDIX carburetor(- as in Porsche 956) petrol engine. The engine in the Pinzgauer was specifically designed for the vehicle; it has more than one oil pump so that the engine will not get starved of oil no matter how the vehicle is orientated.
The Pinzgauer has a chassis design which contributes to its high mobility. It has a central tube chassis with a transaxle which distributes the weight more evenly, and keeps the centre of gravity as low as possible. The differentials are all sealed units and require minimal additional lubrication. The Pinzgauer also has portal axles like the Unimog to provide extra clearance over obstacles. The 710 4x4 was the more popular variant, but the Pinzgauer was designed to have a very capable 6x6 configuration from the start. The rear suspension on the back of the 6x6 712 is designed to provide maximum traction in the most demanding circumstances along with increasing its towing, load carrying, and off-road abilities.
During production from 1971 until 1985, 18,349 first-generation 710s and 712s were produced and sold to both civilian and military customers.
Wataru needed some clothes to wear other than the Blythe ones that fit.
I thought I was going to have a hard time sewing for a boy. On the contrary, I find myself having lots of fun sewing for him. I guess, after so many years sewing only for girls, a change of subject is good! :)
I made him an office suit, we didn't have any neckties so we had to improvise. Hehe.
Pants made with Dolly Dolly modified pattern for better fitting. (Repro Wataru is smaller than the original one)
Wataru says that having an harem is hard to support. Too many girly mouths to feed maybe? XD
