Unexpected Trade

I recently added a Fairyland Moe Line Luka to my group to play the role of a pin-up/suicide girl. I had searched flickr and doll forums form months to make sure I liked the sculpt. This was all before the initial release of the M-Line body. Then the body came out as a limited time release and I decided to take the plunge. After receiving her, I was really excited and pleased. But when I started to build her character, there was just a disconnect and I honestly couldn't take looking at her. I was just going to wipe her and see if I could make a character that fit, but I decided to put her up as a trade to see if I could get a different head. I wasn't expecting to actually get an offer of the Chloe or Celine heads I was searching for, but thanks to a wonderful lady, I was able to trade my Luka for a Celine (Thank you so much if you're reading this! ^^).

I'm really excited to try developing Celine and hope she'll fit the character I imagine. I had planned on having her faceup completed this weekend so I could post pictures, but I start my new job tomorrow and the stress has stripped all my creativity. I have my fingers crossed that the stress will ease by next weekend so I can give it a shot. 

I'm also excited because I splurged this time and actually bought a can of Mr. Super Clear UV Cut. I've always used Purity Seal in the past, and while it works, it's kinda splotchy and temperamental. I've read so many good things about MSC that I'm excited to try it. If it works as well as I expect it to, I'll be wiping my Chloe soon to refresh her look.
