Where are you located?
I'm currently residing in San Mateo, Rizal Philippines 1850.

When will you have slots again?

A form must be submitted on the day of opening only which are announced on my handles. This is to ensure that I can keep track of the list.

Right now the form is closed as we have reached the max number of submissions.

I can go from Semi realistic face ups, Fantasy, Glitter to simple face ups. Just let me know what pegs are you looking to get and I'll do my best to incorporate it to your doll's face up.

Do you accept custom eyes?
Yes! I have attached the pricing, available sizes and irises below.



What are they made from?
They're made from epoxy resin and polymer clay.

Do they yellow?
Yes, unfortunately. It is still made of resin. It is normal for resin to yellow due to its age, environmental factors and handling. Just ensure that you take care of them to prolong their lifespan.

Can I send you a reference?
Yes! however please be advised that we do not replicate other artist's work. You can send me digital drawings, character specific eyes such as anime and real human eyes as inspiration.

Yes. I have made an album for you to choose. Since it's customizable you can also let me know any specifics you want added or removed. You can check my Facebook for variations.

What other services do you do?
We have ear piercing be it temporary or permanent mod. We also have spa services that includes restring, cleaning and minor sanding if needed. Packages are available for full doll customization. And oh! Color matching via airbrush is also available ❤️




Do you have other modifications offered?
We are now offering Scarification/Flesh Wound as a mod! It can be temporary or permanent. So far, I have very minimal restrictions for such but do let me know so we can discuss this further via the platform you're most comfortable with.  Also, I love knowing your character lore! This can actually help me understand and incorporate placements of such mods on the dolls body for accuracy in realism  :)


Other Mods:
I'm still learning a lot of stuff before I offer it to my clients but we do plan to offer repairs, eye and ear mods in the future. I have to ensure experience and expertise as I do not want to experiment on a client's doll.
