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.

  4. I love her restraint. Very cool dio, too.

  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 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. ...

Zee Gypsies!

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." ...

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 thin...
