I'm liking Lapin eyes very, very much. Has this maker been around for a while? I haven't paid much attention to Y!J eye auctions until recently, so I'm still fairly clueless. http://page18.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w35859858
Now, I didn't bid on this, because OMG!PRICE, but it is lovely. Dieu_bleu seems to be the flavor of the month; these prices are beating even Lyric of Siren (at least the auctions that I've noticed recently).

Since I'm not inclined to dress my boys like girls, Sweeney kinda mystifies me, but boy howdy, is this gorgeous stuff in its mystifying way: http://page4.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/d90814012
momoko&nonoko is (are?) doing nice things with kimono, e.g. http://page13.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/r52602256.
Which makes me wonder: did tomoelwes get out of the SD kimono business altogether? I remember mooning over tomoelwes kimono auctions back in the day, and vowing that someday I would win one, only when I got to the point of having a little money . . . no more tomoelwes.
Oh me oh my, how I adore this Soar Plum head (modded oldskin F-05): http://page11.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/n74026580. I don't want to make Okaru jealous, because I loves my Okaru, but whoa.
I don't know that I would want to live with this consumptive or possibly ghostly Maki from freesia219b, but I'm more than happy to save one of his pictures: http://page18.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w35993134
And for those who asked, here's my eBay win, Heavybomb's "Morris the Gentleman." Do y'all think he's an F-16? Mouth and nose modded? These are Heavybomb's own pictures:
The newer auction pictures don't flatter him much, IMHO:
According to the listing, those are Antique Rose eyes, which, if they are, will be an exciting addition to the eyebox. I've never seen AR eyes in person, as far as I know.
Back to grading!
AR eyes are awesome I have seen them in person, but dont own any. They are like better Zoukes
Hey, do you remember this pretty outfit that I spotted on Y!J last fall? I was a little sad to see it up for sale again so soon, but on the other hand whoever won the auction must be happy right now: http://page11.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/n68310107
I need to get those all posted on my eye database sometime soon. Can't wait to see your doll when he gets in!
Either way, he's lovely! And dieu bleu's outfits have always gone for about thousand and over, lol. She does really lovely work!
And we have head markings! Post to come--
His name is Genta, and he is BEAUTIFUL!! Heavybomb can certainly paint a gorgeous faceup when she's in the mood.
I almost think he's too old to be F16, because I remember when F16 came out, but his head will tell the tale.
Or ask Nicky, she's the Queen of the Lucases.
;)
And, I was THE STUPID and sold both pair of my AR eyes, so you definitely are lucky if they really are!
Looking forward to photos soon!
^_^
I stay away from YJ. I just don't even want to know.
