Ukkie

Face-up artist(s):

Body blushing artist(s):

Date of acquisition:

24 november 2009

Provenance:

Bought second hand

Reason for choice:

Since I got into BJD's I wanted a cat doll. I loved how tiny puki puki's were, and how cute the pukisha faceplate was! Then one of my cats died, and I wanted to base a Pukisha on him as a tribute. So when I found a Puki Pukisha for sale, within my own country, with the added bonus of pukipuki Sugar faceplates, I immediately seized the opportunity.

Best Points:

So tiny! So poseable! Also, even though my puki's are quite old by now, the yellowing is subtle and even. Sturdy dolls.

Worst Points:

Puki's are addictive. Sometimes parts don't want to fit quite right (I had a spare faceplate that did not want to stay put for example) and soemtimes the magnets show through their resin.

Eyes:

Fairyland yellow cat eyes

Wig:

Handmade fake fur wig

Favourite colours:

Orange

Fashion style(s):

casual clothes, silly costumes

Name story:

Based of the name of one of our cats, who the doll is a tribute to. The name is a Dutch word/nickname for a small/young person

Character age:

around 3 years

Character gender:

Male

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is not available for offsite roleplay.

Ukkie is a sort of tribute doll to my former cat, Ukkie (hence the name). Ukkie was a very friendly cat, who loved attention, people and food. A very friendly kitty who was very good at cheering you up when you were sad too. Very easy going, you could pick him up and cuddle him without any problem, and he was always purring. He disappeared a year ago. Now I have a tribute for him to keep the memory alive, with as a bonus that he can't run away
