Happy 100 Followers!

Found my camera cord and just in time. Vita Plastica has reached 100 followers and all without a significant presence in the doll world other than this blog of ramblings and sub-par doll pics. You people like my demented mind.

I have been really lucky to be part of such a wonderful community of artists. So to thank you for your support and for all being so inspiring, I'm offering giveaway. Just leave a comment and you will enter in the drawing for her. Please don't comment if you're not interested. I guess I'll do the drawing, what, April 1st? You see how official I am being about this thing.

Look, I'm Dani, and that means I'm not going to trick you with a bunch of flowery language. I'm going to be very honest at the risk of making this doll seem unattractive.


I present to you, ladies and gentlemen, Seashore Rebel Natalia. She will come with all her original accessories. She is a used doll. She (along with two others from her line) was my first Fashion Royalty doll. And she's been played with. But not for a few years.

Her body is pretty good condition. Not too loosey goosey. She's not as wonky as I have posed her. Sorry kid. Some discoloring. Elbow joints were sort at odds with the middle arm piece, but damage isn't significant. Body seems to have aged in different shades. Is that hunched over early FR body.

Her hair is still pretty silky with a side part.


I'm sorry I neglected to get a shot of the back of the bathing suit. It looks like a 2 piece from the back, with a two separate hook closures.




Original jewelry is included but kind of tarnished. The anklets go through the back of the shoes, but I never used them much. Too impossible. They're a little tarnished as well. Original stand included (likely a different telescopic pole). Pretty scratched up.


Purse is in beautiful condition and I really really hated parting with it.

She's got a great face for a repaint artist. Way harsh makeup.


She'll come in an FR box, but not her own, which has become too beat up. I think this box belongs to Flight Pattern Kyori.


Well there she is folks. Just enter a comment if you're interested and you will enter the drawing to win her! She's no spring chicken but she and her parts can still fetch you a penny or two.

Good luck!

smooches,
dani

  13. Congrats on 100 followers!! And, I like her face paint...I think she might just need a different hair color to match it. Personally...she is a stunner as is. <3 And I'm not just sayin' that because re-rooting her would be a total pain. Haha! ;) Count me in Dani!!

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...

The Giveaway! And more.

You guys, let's talk. After I set up Grandville in the new house, I was sort of bored. I liked getting everyone unpacked but I really didn't feel like telling my stories, posing dolls, finding outfits for them. I didn't know where to take this doll thing next. And since my doll break at the end of last year, I've filled up my evenings with other things, especially Facebook where I remember I'm a writer again (in short blurbs). But what I don't feel like writing, are doll stories. I was at this doll crossroads, and already donating and trading away some good stuff when I became suddenly, surprisingly aware that I was (am) pregnant! How did this happen? Well I have a few ideas. I'm 37, I had been debating whether to have another. Sometimes, I swear, I'd be sitting with the girls and think I'm hearing a 3rd kid crying in the background. So that choice was made for me I'm very happy about it (and terrified). And the choice about dolls was made ...
