Doll Maker's Diary, Part 34: Out of This World
Having already explored the Alice in Wonderland Dress Up Game on Azalea's Dolls, I decided to try my hand at the Sci Fi Warrior Dress Up Game on their website. This one is different from all their other games I've tried so far in that it is primarily inspired by Star Wars and other science fiction franchises. Here are some of the artworks I made recently in that game:

Star Wars serves as the inspiration for much of the designer's content, and it shows not just in the choice of backgrounds (each of which depict various scenes from the movies) but also in the list of clothing items that can be assigned to each doll. These items are classified into four sets: Martial Artist (similar to the Jedi and the Sith), Rebel (reminiscent of the Rebel Alliance introduced in A New Hope), Princess (evocative of royalty from Naboo), and Slave (very much like what Leia wore in Return of the Jedi after enslavement by the crime lord Jabba the Hutt). In addition to these, some of the options for a doll's basic appearance remind me of humanoid aliens (or similar-looking beings) such as Twi'leks.
As its name suggests, the game does indeed allow you to make your doll look like an actual warrior - but you can also have her resemble an ordinary civilian instead, among other options. And that is very much the point of this game - who in their right mind would not want to imagine a science-fiction heroine bringing hope to the people across the galaxy? I certainly would. In fact, this ties in very well with the theme of the next post in this series.
