Absence Make You Have More Followers

Image
By
Exciting! I have new followers. And all I had to do was be a total downer and run away from the blogosphere.

You know, sometimes there's a doll that you really don't like and then suddenly, you're in love.

My husband, a lover of all things that he thinks will mature in value (baseball cards, records, obscure "action figures") had a couple of dolls that he felt the need to give to me. He knew they would have a better life in my hands.

One of which was Hasbro's Miss Fear.
I really didn't like her. Her weapons were awesome and I really appreciated the cigarette holder but her clothes didn't fit well, her hair was insane and she didn't look anything like the hot cartoon on the box. Her makeup was terrible, her "Asian" eyes were just ridiculous.

So she ended up being a bit character in things. She played a bodyguard or a bouncer. She was so beefy that I never let her be a "lady".


I guess Ms. Fear's life turned around when my husband got me Dynamite Girls Spooky Sooki:

I absolutely loved Sooki. I mean, she was a goth girl! But she was also a teenager, so I had to give her a mother. Ms Fear (who I once gave a name but forgot it) was perfect. She wasn't too cute or fashionable to have a teenager daughter. And she looked mean enough to be a terrible mother and therefore would have a daughter who was a rebellious teen.

Since then, my love and respect for Ms. Fear has deepened. Now the Fears are kind of like the Carringtons of my doll world. (The Fears, minus Dani, who was only recently discovered to be a Fear:)


And once in a while Ms. Fear can really deliver a photo:


I still wouldn't cross her if I were you.

Anyone want to name Ms. Fear? It has to be Japanese. The other fears are Miho, Aoki, Yumi and Sooki.

smooches,
dani

    Oooh, she's awesome! It's tough to find dolls that can play the "older" characters, so big score! I wouldn't cross her either, lol.

Introducing Nymeria and the Alurium Vaccarra

By
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...

Zee Gypsies!

By
I'm home today, the kids are at school (half day), so I decided to take some pictures with my little window of time. I rarely show the gypsies and one of you guys requested it, so here they are! "Hello, I am Carmen Kirpachi. Welcome to our home." "This is my husband Milosh." "Hallo."  "This is my brother, Franco. While his gaje girlfriend Josephine is in Paris, he's spending a lot more time with us." "Excuse me, I have to put some more wood in the stove so I can get dinner started." "My goat stew is Milosh's favorite but we need to get the pot hot first." "This is my living area, also known as Franco's bedroom. But we don't mind. The Romany love having family around." "Milosh says I drive like a fugitive so he doesn't let me drive very often." "But sometimes I put a glamour on him and he forgets how much he hates my driving." ...

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-...
