Say hi to Manfred! I made him as a birthday present to my dear friend @tiiracotta, who's a big Dragon Age fan.
I had a blast working all the little details on the 40cm tall skeleton base I got in a Halloween clearance sale. All the other materials came from my stash, including the eyes, which were originally part of my prop sword sheath for my cosplay of Kusuriuri from Mononoke. The ornaments have been falling off through the years, so I recently replaced a few, and it was by noticing how similar the green crystals are to Manfred's eyes that I had the idea to make the whole doll.
I've always loved puppets, dolls and miniatures, so I hope I can make more projects like this in the future!

‘One Man's Treasure’ - A set worthy of love
Read the fic on AO3
Some habits are hard to break, even after millennia. Hua Cheng knows this best, as he always accompanies Xie Lian on his dumpster-diving adventures.
This set includes one raggedy fox plush, two poorly translated shirts, and a clean bin to keep things organised. The fox has already been taken care of, and his hand-embroidered eyepatch is removable to reveal Hua Cheng's signature red eye.
In honour of Xie Lian's scrap-collecting passion, everything in this set is made with recovered/recycled materials.

‘Your Package Has Been Delivered’ - These toys are not for kids!
Read the fic on AO3
Hua Cheng's packages keep getting delivered to his cute neighbour, which is all fine and dandy until some special toys get mixed in the mail! While Hua Cheng is the one who sees the contents of Xie Lian's discreet package in the fic, here we picture the opposite because Yaban's Doll Atelier can't afford Hua Cheng's modelling fees seeing Xie Lian's reaction in that scenario would've been very funny.
This set includes two labelled black boxes, two invoices, two receipts, one bottle of lube, a cock ring and the infamously dubbed "Colon Destroyer" with its remote controller. Hua Cheng did his best to conceal the fact that he opened Xie Lian's box, but you can see some traces of the debacle if you look carefully.

‘With Patience, With Love’ - A cosy set to eternal happiness
Read the fic on AO3
Hua Cheng is acting strange, and Xie Lian doesn't know what to think when he catches him lying. Deciding to trust him no matter what, his loyalty gets rewarded with a surprise made with the utmost patience and the utmost love.
This set includes a long ivory scarf, a thrifted mug that says "Coffee isn't my cup of tea", fairly lights, and 25 paper butterflies with the motives and colours described in the story.
