Artist's Comments

Lately I've been re-reading the Girl Genius comic ([link]) and I thought I'd try my hand at making a steam-punk inspired outfit for one (or a few) of my ball jointed dolls.

So the first step was a decent pair of goggles. After all, any mad scientist worth his snuff needs a spiffy pair of goggles, am I right?

This set is my first pair (I have a few more in the works) The lenses are made from a sheet of vinyl sandwiched between two rings from a set of curtain clips (I liked the patina on them). Then the bulk of the goggles are sewn from bits of leather stitched with artificial sinew.

For being a first try I think these have been a resounding success. The lenses are a bit large to be worn over the eyes, but they look fine on the forehead.

The doll pictured is my 70cm Dollzone Yuu sculpt, affectionately known as "Keir".

I still have to say that I love it. *steals the goggles and makes normal-sized ones*

...and the smiley just amused me.

Hehe as soon as I get a few more proper supplies I'll be making a human sized set for my brother, I'll just pick up double and make you a set hm?

Ooh, lovely work, especially for your first pair of goggles.
I need to get a pair for my own doll when I get him. Goggles are as cool as they are adorable. :3
