Wearables Cosplaying dolls

There are many, many characters I love and which I think would be fun to make as dolls. There is also only so much space inside my home.
The solution I came up with was to designate two of my dolls to be cosplayers.


One is a minifee juri 20 on a myoudoll body, the other is a boy unoa. That way I can do characters with and without big breasts.

My plan is not to do any of these characters as 100% accurate representation. The two dolls have their own personality and quirks which will remain (aka I'm not changing their faceups).
This is just the best solution I've found to have fun with a lot of characters without buying a billion dolls

I figured I'd start with something easy, and do Luffy from One Piece, specifically his outfit during the East Blue arcs, because it doesn't get simpler than that: shorts, a vest, a hat, sandals


Good thing I start easy because I encountered many problems lol I lost pieces of fabric I'd cut, the shorts were way too wide (even though the pattern is made for Unoa?? I must have traced it wrong when I originally did that months ago). A lot of little misadventures, but in the end I think it worked out ok.

Next step is to style a short wig I found lying around, make his straw hat, and make him sandals.
