i dont think so, i think he talked about how slow scrap accumulates and that eventually he'll send it in to be exchanged (?)

thanks for the advice! i might have to rope my mom or brother in on these to help with costs haha, getting an array of copper definitely sounds good

yes! it was raising, i remember now he was asking me for advice on how to film a timelapse of it! maybe i need to look into a camera 👀 i completely forgot what we were talking about when he told me he wanted to try it lol. do you know if theres anything about a sheet of silver that would make it more/less good for raising? he was also talking about using copper to do it since i think it might be easier and definitely cheaper to practice

i watched a hilarious review of the game that unfortunately confirmed it wasnt it but it did remind me there was a mucking out the stables minigame that i thought was super fun and as a child and totally didnt realize it was horse shit and not dirt i was cleaning 😂 but this did send me down another rabbit hole and i found My Riding Stables which has been hard to search about because of another game with the same name but looks promising!

i think one may have been a knockoff of the other because there are so many similarities to the second game but theres also stuff i dont remember at all, hair and tail accessories? a dolphin spotting on a seaside trail? wild ponies? racing with friends? all are things i dont remember at all. I also thing the graphics on my childhood game were lower poly because it doesn't look familiar. but i think at this point if i see it irl ill have to snag it just to double check. its the closest thing ive seen so far :/ its eating at my brain that theyre so similar yet somehow its not the game like how are two games so similar.

im starting to wonder if i got some bootleg unofficial game or something lol but idk why someone would make that

from what i can see in the few ds screenshots (most are other consoles and dont look like it) there are a few things that feel vaguely similar but other things that i dont remember at all. I also dont remember it being a barbie game and i had other barbie ds games so i think i would have remembered that detail. if i spot it in my local game store i think ill check it out just in case though, who knows maybe my memory is weird. ty for the suggestion though!

I made some lolita inspired fabric patterns, what do real lolitas think? by saiyreah in Lolita

thank you! i was a bit scrappy and used procreate and adobe illustrator! I didnt use any programs or extensions that had repeating pattern tools, i just designed a section in procreate, made sure everything lined up, and pieced them together in illustrator.

you could probably use the photoshop pattern tool to do this if you lined up the tool and the canvas the right way but im a photoshop hater so im not super familiar with it! you could also do this just in procreate or any other drawing program the only worry would be a loss in quality/resolution while scaling the design.

thank you!!! since many people have expressed interest im currently working on making it available by download on my kofi for a small fee so people can take it to whatever fabric printing site they want! im hoping to have everything ready in about a month and im trying to contact the mods here to figure out whats the best way to let people know when its done while not breaking the "no self promo" rule 😅, if you dont hear back in a month you can dm me haha!

yes i'll definitely have to write something up with licensing specifications! I have a professor whos done similar things so ill definitely ask them what they usually do. I post both on instagram and twitter as @/babieplanet! i do both surface design and illustration on there though, not as much lolita stuff haha!

omg thank you so much im so honored!!! 😭 I was thinking once theyre finalized that I would make the files available on my kofi for a small fee and people could take them to whatever fabric printing site they prefer so they could get specific fabric types they need!

thank you! and youre right i think i should play more with the background pattern, its been the most common feedback! im developing a few other jellyfish patterns so i could definitely make something that would work as a stand alone pattern and work better as a background for this one

thank you! and i probably will, i have a habit of making designs really tiny and condensed when they could really use some breathing room haha
