Date of acquisition:

Dyed and airbrushed and assembled; December 11th 2015.

Provenance:

Denmark

Reason for choice:

The Stella sculpt was ideal for Demas face, and the DC body matches the height and aesthetic of the rest of my collection, and the OC was always supposed to become a BJD, so it was just a matter of making him come to life.

Best Points:

I am so over the moon with how good the dye came out and all of his tattoos. (The dye is iDye Poly brown and yellow)

Worst Points:

Doll chateau elbow joints are a bit of a pain sometimes, but the body is so aesthetically pleasing I'll allow it, heh.

Heheh, I'll just go ahead and copy-paste an OC questionnaire I recently filled out for fun.
