I found some super tiny scale mail on the Ring Lord website and decided to give some miniature pieces a try. This is the first prototype for a scale mail bikini top for a MSD ball jointed doll. These dolls are about 1/4th scale to human size.
This project took about 7 hours, but I was teaching myself as I went along so I imagine as I get better at this process that future bikini tops wont take as long. The most difficult part was adding stabilizing rings to the bottom edges of the triangles as, as this scale, the rings are so small that they are barely wide enough to hold the extra rings and the scales at the same time. If I can get the hang of this in a more timely manner, I will offer some of these in my shop when I am ready to re-open it. As for now, though, I have barely enough time to get prototypes and chores done while working full time and school is starting this next week so who knows if I'll be able to get much else made.
Here Danny is modeling for me, Daenerys is an Iplehouse Cecile head on a Doll Legend MSD body. I made her yarn dread wig, all her jewelry and her velvet skirt myself. Her eyes are custom made from: www.safrindoll.com/ Her face up and body blushing were done by TatsuKitty from Den of Angels.
I've been wanting to take pictures of my teeny tiny Silverbeam ponies for a while now :) they are perfectly 1:4 scaled. I hope the colors on these turned out okay, I edited them on my laptop and its a color gank :/

Ever get the feeling you're being watched?

It's not upside down. Grimeca Basso is an Italian company, so the spirals run the opposite direction of Avid, Hayes and Shimano.
The interior is taking shape. The characteristic holes in the floor have been drilled and the floor panels glued in. The engine room has been covered with plywood.
And a dusty old pirate ship.
If it's not already obvious, I'm very easily distracted and thus very slow to finish cleaning my room.

This is a cleaner version of a scaled Celtic knot done in a graphics program. Scaling introduces distortions,but still maintains symmetry. See album.

Did scales cost a fortune at some point in the past?
I've never understood the business model for giant civic bathroom scales and impulse-purchase weight measurement.
Photos of my scratchbuilt N Scale passenger terminal. More details to be added, and some final touch ups, but mostly completed!
Built in 1856 as an effort by the Danish government to improve trade in the by-then declining Christiansted, the Scale House allowed for products to be inspected and weighed on a massive floor scale in the open room to assess their value. The effort failed to improve the finances of St. Croix.
