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 think it encourages a sense of community. Enchanted Eats uses all local ingredients which are blessed by a local coven. All produce is specifically harvested with intention and all chosen for their correspondences to love, prosperity, protection...even lust!"

"Well that certainly is different. Come on down to Grandville Park today to try some of Mistress Ava's Enchanted Eats. Back to you, Jim."


Well, lemme show you around:

Some of the delicious treats served:

The sandwich prep area and sink. I'll be adding shelves to this wall and trying to scuff up the silver paper more.

I think the flat top grill gunked up nicely. Must do more of that on the wall above the fryer. There will be lots of witchy doodads on the wall. Skull tiles, tiny broom that I haven't made yet.

[I forgot to take a pic of this so I got this before I put everything way. I made fry baskets with Rement dish racks and pot holder thingies. I don't know what half the shizz is in my Rement stash. Fries will go in there at some point I suppose.]

This is where orders are taken.

And this is where you pick up the order and pay. Might as well grab a doughnut.

Another view.

The staff at Enchanted Eats:
Maura (in argyle):  Customer Service
Valentina: Head Chef
Zeke: Sous Chef
Mistress Ava Stronghold: Figurehead, Money

Rai has a new rich older boyfriend, Hunter. You can't keep a good Brazilian down.
Aragorn is check out the options. Cheri informs him she is not on the menu.
Sooki can't believe he's just standing there and not noticing her!  Raven agrees. Mind boggling.

My favorite picture and I'm fairly sure it was an accident.

Morgan has ordered The Maiden. It's basically a gyro.

I see a little butt crack!

Bits and pieces will be added but my workspace (this) needs some serious help. Time to rearrange Grandville again!

Back soon!

smooches,
dani

      Thanks Sergio! Figuring out a logo frustrated me for about 3 weeks! In the end, I used an embroidery pattern I found on Google images

    It's fabulous! I am all about the food trucks. I've never eaten from one, but I watch them on tv. Love all the little details. The sandwich and the fixings are my fave.

    Pity this was a drag for you, but it's a delight for me to see. Love the foodstuff (lol) and the people checking potential.

    We'll see the other stuff when you get to it ;-)

      Thanks D7ana. Well it WAS fun. It's not the project that's a drag but the fact that I only have 1.5-2 hours per day to work on it!

    That is so cool! What a great idea to make a food truck. My littler berg isn't very fancy so we don't have food trucks here, just hotdog carts on the corner, lol. It was neat to see inside a toy one.

    Barbie pink camper who? Not when you can have a fabulous food truck by Dani! Man, I'm thinking of shipping my dolls off for a visit of Grandville. Your dolly town has really developed into the place to be. I'm really looking forward to seeing it come full circle. Great work, Dani!

Introducing Ayumi

By
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

By
 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...
