Big Sister's in Town and a Lurve Connection?

Hiya folks,

I'm still procrastinating on the royal story. Every time I play the scene in my head where Princess Victoire meets Dani, it keeps changing. I positively did not know how I wanted it to play out.

Then I suddenly remembered why I wanted a castle in the first place. But I'm not giving it away yet. I'll just say this, Zolandia is not going to be the wholesome place I thought it would be.

Anyway, did I tell you about the doll trade from the heavens? I'm sure I did, but I never photographed much of it, so check it out. (You'll see the rest by and by.) When I knew I was getting the A-frame cottage, I never thought this sucker would be so big. It was so good that I couldn't let Zolandia have it. This is gonna be the party house. I don't know if it will belong to anyone in particular.

So much for my big Grandville Park but it fits here perfectly.


It's so big, I got my whole Bratz (?) sushi bar up here with no problem and lots of space for losers to hang out.

I love that 70's attention to detail. Can't wait to paint this. BUT it will be a long time from now. Maybe a year or two. I want to drink in the tacky charm.

Across the house on the bottom level. This is all temporary decor, trying this weird space on. I made some foam core walls years ago and with a little trim on top they will fit nicely on either of these open sides so I can have some options when shooting pics.

So until the house is ready for a party, (when the royals and the squares finally leave Grandville maybe) the gang is over at Population. Let's join them.

Introducing Cheri*, Zeke's older sister:
 *also from the best trade ever.

I've been wanting a blonde that wasn't pure evil like Hanna. While she's definitely got a naughty gleam in her eye, I think this blonde is going to be smart and good.
 
Pia: What the hell do you want?
Zeke: You're looking lovely tonight, Pia. I see your sister isn't here. Maybe now we can talk, get to know--


Ava: Hey, is Aragorn mackin' on your sister over there?
Zeke: Whaaaa?!

"Hey Cheri, how you been? Lookin' good."
"Aragorn.  You certainly haven't changed much."

Pia: Can I borrow Hans tonight? I need to punish-fuck something blond."
Ava: Yeah, I'm not sure we're even dating. 

Ava: Hans, darling?
Pia: Don't say a word, pretty boy. Just meet me out back.

Another set of siblings watches the action from a far. "Hey Marie, who's that girl over there?"
"Which one? They're both new in town."

"Wow, Tipsey, it's lovely to meet you. Your band is amazing. I dropped acid the other day and listened to your album on a loop for like 7 hours."
"That means so much to me Claire. Your reputation proceeds you. I hope we can work together soon."

"The short haired one wearing, like, underpants in public without looking slutty. She is spectacular"
"I'll find out for you."


"Oh no."

"Aw, man, she's leaving."
"Small town. You'll see her again."
*whimper*

I'm currently working on fixing up rooms in Josephine's house. Hanna, Claire, Aria and Sooki live there so far. I'm working on some home improvement things for Remi and Bailey. And the royals royals royals.

  3. Congrats on getting The Barbie Dream Cottage. Looks great! If you think that's big, you should see the A-Frame house. It's huge! Nice to see the crowd at Population.

  5. I have seen that same house repainted black and white and used as an Asian restaurant with the sushi bar upstairs too! I think most of the houses are huge! LOL!

    1. hahah I just saw that sushi bar version online! I'm obsessed with ooak barbie houses, but most are just too small, even when they are big!

  7. Congratulations on the new scene setter.

    I like how you've restyled Zeke's hair and Aragon's hair.

  8. Thanks D7ana. Poor Aragorn. He doesn't have a real name and his hair could use a little update! Projects projects projects!

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. ...

New Goodies!

But first, some news: Projects: Still working on the studio space for Remi and Bailey. The Hubs came in and voiced what was in my head, "So where is that kid supposed to sleep? That's messed up. There's no room for him?"  The last thing I wanted in Grandville is a kid's room. I don't want this rated R world changing into something wholesome. Buuut, if there is to be a custody battle for Julian, I have to make the case, right? So on top of the studio space, I'll build a little room for the brat to use. Maybe I'll give it a fun theme or something. Space or sci-fi or something that doesn't involve sports. I'm also working on a space backdrop for Nymeria and her sister. Then I can finally introduce you. I decided to go with a sort of cheesy 60's sci fi movie thing. That's what inspired the Alurium Vaccarra anyway. So, a sort of intentionally cartoony backdrop. The last project for now is my high school. I wanted it to be a three-...

[in that spongebob narrator voice] Ten Years Later

 Well friends, it's been 10 years!  I'm not sure if any of my older friends and followers still blog or still read blogs.  I've been in the BJD hobby all this time a while it was satisfying and helped me to grow a lot as a dioramist, the call of the 1/6 scale dolls called back to me.   It was hard to make stories for BJDs because of the limited number of characters and sets.  While I no longer have a town to make stories with, nor (hardly) any of my original dolls, my new collection continues to grow and some of them are just itching to tell you all about themselves.  But these heauxs don't even have names except for two.  So lemme get on that... Returning to this hobby feels a bit lonely. My doll community was here in the blogosphere, my BJD community was through youtube and Facebook. Where are you, racy playscale collectors?  Let's get back together!  Instagram feels unsuitable for my needs. I'll see if I can direct traffic here. Who k...
