How Penny Gets her Groove Back

'Sup.

Man, it's been a minute, huh? So I might have mentioned I'm working on a big project. It's going well but with only two hours to work on it a day (after kiddie bed time), it's slow. I think I'll do the reveal in a week or two.

So I haven't been doing much doll play. But I've been buying supplies for the project and loads of doll clothes. But no time to photograph them or dress a doll in them. But today I took a little time to finally introduce Peeta (Grandville name TBD).

Even though photography is still a challenge, I forgot how satisfying it is to play out these little lives.

While not a full photostory, I'm moving things forward at least.

Penny stops by Hot Wax & Heroes on her way home.
Hmm, she thinks, I don't recognize that skateboard. I guess Ian has company.


"Hey Ian. Oh!"
"Hey Penny, this is Malcolm."

"I haven't seen you around. Are you new to Grandville?"
"Yeah me and my parents just moved up here. I would have come sooner if I knew there were such beautiful girls."
Penny giggles and blushes.
Ian fidgets.

"It's really good to meet you Penny. So can I call you some time?"

Penny wasn't attracted to Record Store Ian, but he was her friend and she couldn't bear to hurt him.

"Um, I better go."
"Oh. Can I walk you home?"

"Nope. I live just next door.  See you in school maybe?"
"Whah?" Malcolm sighs.

Penny walks out with a strut, giggling.

It's about time that Penny got some joy in her life. But poor Ian.

Okay I'll do an acquisitions post tomorrow. Got some great new goodies from Blinky's and Nommy Miniatures and good 'ol Amazon.com

smooches,
dani

  3. I love your shop setting. Playscale as if it were 1:1.

    Yay, Penny. Malcolm is cute, but she doesn't have to jump at his beck ;-)

    1. Thanks D7ana. Well she is progressing. Her last relationship with Zeke was so unhealthy. At least she didn't throw herself all over Malcolm.

  5. It's nice to see your Shia figure. I have two of those dolls and haven't used them because of the wonky arm. Seeing yours, gives me hope. Love the shop!

Introducing Nymeria and the Alurium Vaccarra

Ever have a couple of days off Facebook and though you wonder what happened to your friends over the long weekend, you can help feeling a little peaceful? That's how I feel in my week of staying off the blogs and forums and various sites. But I missed a lot! So many cool posts! It's going to take a while to dig myself out. One must wonder, did my creative spurt have something to do with not being all over the web looking at what everyone else is doing? Anyway let's get to it. So on my birthday, my three Stardolls arrived! Aside from the outfit, that Paris one was not cute. I dunno, she's too boring looking. But Iris was THRILLED that she got a new, dressed doll. Well for a few minutes anyway. Did you know that they can't bend their legs? Like they can't sit down? Terrible. Anyway, the other two were great! Inspiring. Meet Valentina. A Columbiana who restores classic cars. She was very happy with a Liv body. She might be Nadia's next girlfriend, w...

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. ...

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...
