Zee Plane Boss, Zee Plane!

Okay could not resist that dorky joke title. At long last my airplane arrived!!! It took like 10 days but it's finally here and I can get started on my Doll Vehicle Customization assignment.

Some sort of monster hybrid of two boxes arrived and I heard a terrible rattle as I snatched it from the mail carrier's clutches.


I began to open it and was not pleased at my findings. What you are seeing below are tiny accessories (including tiny ice cubes) that would have fallen out of the box if not for the box tape. I wonder what did manage to fall out...


All the accessories were just dumped into the box! Horrors! Would it kill you to use a Ziploc?

Hmm, but what is this? My first Silkie!!

Have I mentioned I hate Silkies?  Still I always wanted to handle one, to feel the silky skin and as usual, get her naked and see what's she's got going on.

She must have been a cheapie. No one would treat a fancy Silkstone Barbie so disrespectfully. Even me. What is with their mutant protruding plastic line of "eyelashes"?  Anyway, I have new doll trading buddy so this gal will be shipped off before she has a chance to poison my flock with her outdated ideas. (Really some Silkies are very pretty so don't get too offended)

Anyway, totally excited that she came with a wedding dress!!! Okay so it won't fit Dynamite Girl Dani, but it's good that she has options. Oh did I tell you my mother said she'd make Dani's wedding dress? That's TWO things my mother has/will do on my assignment list. More on that later.

I am still really happy with the airplane. Came with load of original accessories and some cool freebies like wheeled luggage, a luggage cart and our little redhead friend above.  Here are some shots:



 Imagine this all white with silver doors.
 This is my pilot, checking out her new digs.
 She photographs much better than she looks.

I'm excited to get to work! So the plan is to cover make this as white as possible, inside and out with silver accents and some tangerine colors in there. 

Did I tell you the name of the airline? It's Pan Em Airlines. If you read the Hunger Games, I hope you got a chuckle, if you didn't, get on it buddy! I KNOW they'll come out with dolls for the characters. They just have to. So be prepared. You will read all three in a weekend. Do it.

  1. LOVE the plane! I like the pilot's look, I wish I could get one more MZ but will have to see what the budget looks like. :)

    I'm hoping the come out with a doll based on Lenny Kravitz character from the movie...he's HAUTE!

  2. That's the plane I have lurking in my closet..LOL. I hate when people don't put accessories in a baggie. I'm with you on what may have fell out before it arrived? ARGH

    Can't wait to see what you do with it maybe I'll get an idea :O)

  3. By the way that's not a Silkie she's a repro doll called Wedding Day. It also came in blonde and brunette if I'm not mistaken

  4. Thank you, Dollz4Moi! I was looking all over for a bride silkie online and couldn't find one! The dress isn't too bad once you get past the glitter.

    Oh Tracy, I actually found the one of the other MZs on the Integrity site for $35! I was about to shell out some dough for her on ebay: http://www.integritytoys.com/shop20/home.php?cat=13

    So excited that Lenny has been cast as Cinna!

Grandville Summer Festival!

Hello doll friends, First up, I gotta show you this. My 4 year old was playing with my Barbie cast-offs and set up this little scene. (That yellow thing on the table is a TV shaped eraser.) Dig the lamp she made with a wedding cake and the pole from maybe a Barbie dress form? Adorbs. Anyway, this weather (raining pretty much daily for the last month or so) has wrecked my spray painting plans. Much of the royal storyline rests on this painting project. So for now I decided to continue the other stories I have going. Enjoy: "Ho-ly crap, what on earth are you wearing?" "Aw, Sook, I feel bad enough."   "Seriously. You are wearing khakis. You look cray cray. You're like somebody's mom right now. Please explain this situation." "My boss said my outfit was too sexy so I had to borrow something from Le Skater Dork over there at the cafe. Jeez, now I owe her one. Oh crap Channel 1 News is here."   "Thanks John. Lavita...

Introducing Ayumi

I haven't been feeling particularly inspired with stories in Grandville, but their plastic lives are being led, with or without my story telling. And I have to practice my photography so instead I'm going to do a Cliff Notes if you will, of what has been going on in Grandville and who all these new characters are. First up, Ayumi. I might give her a new name at some point. I hate keeping the Integrity name but sometimes it just happens. She is a Korean supermodel who uses her funds to support her research as an astrophysicist. She got her Ph.D. at 18. This is Ayumi's house. Well, one of them. This is Ayumi's boyfriend of 10 months, Raj Nirvana. He's a yoga instructor. They have a harmonious relationship. Still, she wonders about that girl Marie. They seem to do a lot of talking after his yoga class. Ayumi loves hanging out with her girls. Nothing quite as fun as a day of shopping. Claire sighs, "How weird to have a bank account. ...

Ugh whatever. Just, here!

Folks, lemme tell you, I am so tired of my little big project. The big stuff was easy (spray painting and such). That was over weeks and weeks ago. It's been the small stuff. And I'm still nowhere near done but I'll do the rest in Phase Two (Bailey and Remi's wedding). I miss my dolls so hard. I have two new beauties I haven't even taken shots of. I have pretty new clothes that just sit around, unworn, unappreciated, unphotographed. Stories untold! All for this shizz. Before: And today, Grandville's food truck, Enchanted Eats! Lights! "Lavita Terrell here for Channel One News, Grandville. I'm here with Mistress Ava Stronghold in front her food truck, Enchanted Eats!" "Mistress Ava, food trucks are so last week. Why bother? What makes Enchanted Eats different?" "I've got to disagree Lavita. Food trucks have been around as long as humans have had markets. They're just taking a new form. I thin...
