Custom Dolls
Yes, I Customize Blythe and Pullip dolls! These are collectable dolls, made in Japan and Korea. Many collectors are "purists," who collect the dolls just as they are released by the factory; others collect one of a kind (OOAK) customized dolls. That's where I come in...
Customization involves carving the doll's lips, eyes, and philtrum; replacing its stock hair with human hair, mohair or modacrylic hair; replacing eye chips with custom, foiled eye chips; sanding their faces and painting make-up (called a face-up); and creating one of a kind clothing and accessories. In the end, I create a unique doll with its own personality.

DOLLS AND PRICES:
Blythe Dolls have four sets of eyes, each a different color (or colors), changed with a pull string. Custom Blythes have "sleepy eyes," the ability to close their eyes or have droopy eyelids. Blythe bodies are articulated at the neck, torso, shoulders and knees. They can be customized with a ball jointed body, giving them full articulation. Their hair is rooted to their scalp.
Pullip Dolls have one set of eyes that can be moved from left to center to right, and can blink, wink or close. Their bodies are fully articulated. Their hair is usually a wig securely glued to their scalp.
Customized Blythes start at $350 and go up to $650 or more, depending on the base doll and the amount of work done. Hair, lips and makeup can be done in any color scheme, and the doll can be made and clothed in any theme or style. the face can be carved into many expressions; smile, frown, grin, smirk, etc.
Pullip Dolls start at $250, and can be wigged and made up in any color scheme or style. NOTE there are no Pullips on this site at this time.
If you have a Blythe or Pullip you'd like customized, please inquire about work and price. Thanks.

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries had its humble beginnings as an idea of a few artisans and craftsmen who enjoy performing with live steel fighting. As well as a patchwork quilt tent canvas. Most had prior military experience hence the name.
Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries.
Vendertainers that brought many things to a show and are know for helping out where ever they can.
As well as being a place where the older hand made items could be found made by them and enjoyed by all.
We expanded over the years to become well known at what we do. Now we represent over 100 artisans and craftsman that are well known in their venues and some just starting out. Some of their works have been premiered in TV, stage and movies on a regular basis.
Specializing in Medieval, Goth , Stage Film, BDFSM and Practitioner.
Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries a Dept of, Ask For IT was started by artists and former military veterans, and sword fighters, representing over 100 artisans, one who made his living traveling from fair to festival vending medieval wares. The majority of his customers are re-enactors, SCAdians and the like, looking to build their kit with period clothing, feast gear, adornments, etc.
Likewise, it is typical for these history-lovers to peruse the tent (aka mobile store front) and, upon finding something that pleases the eye, ask "Is this period?"
A deceitful query!! This is not a yes or no question. One must have a damn good understanding of European history (at least) from the fall of Rome to the mid-1600's to properly answer. Taking into account, also, the culture in which the querent is dressed is vitally important. You see, though it may be well within medieval period, it would be strange to see a Viking wearing a Caftan...or is it?
After a festival's time of answering weighty questions such as these, I'd sleep like a log! Only a mad man could possibly remember the place and time for each piece of kitchen ware, weaponry, cloth, and chain within a span of 1,000 years!! Surely there must be an easier way, a place where he could post all this knowledge...
Traveling Within The World is meant to be such a place. A place for all of these artists to keep in touch and directly interact with their fellow geeks and re-enactment hobbyists, their clientele.
