So I just got my new girl on Monday. She's a Bobobie Ariel head on a two part mature bust Resinsoul body. I stayed away from Bobobies for so long because I hated the Bobobie body. I think it mostly had to do with the way the wrist looked like a log with a hand poking out.
First impression? She is tiny. Everything is so skinny, and she stands way shorter than Kate, who is on a Dollzone body. The resin is gorgeous and smooth, and I love the floppy ears. Not very pose-able, though for the price it's not bad. Also, I tightened the strings all by myself. I haven't gotten very adventurous with my BJDs. Maybe I'll test all that stuff on her. If I get ambitious, heh.
Poor thing doesn't have a name yet. Also the wig is gorgeous and soft, but it also reminds me why I avoid curly/wavy wigs. They're so hard to control!
( Anyway, onto her first pictures. )
For those of you paying attention, yes, she is wearing partial Taeyang Sol stock. She's that tiny. If I could remove her hands she be comfortable wearing the arm warmers too.

So these are some extra belated Halloween/Fall pictures that due to both time and weather I was unable to do sooner. So there are new family shots of the Pullips, as well as the only two BJDs I have left. For the moment. Hopefully I'll find my MNF Shushu soon, and now I'm torn between getting a Resinsoul/BBB Ariel (Junkyspot is offering her on the Resinsoul body) or an MNF Shiwoo on the muscular active line body. But I'm really anxious for my Coyote (Shushu). Kate needs a friend, not just a little Imp named Ish that follows her around.
These are Derek's first pictures with his new fur wig that finally arrived. I'm still trying to decide how much I like it compared to the wig he was stealing previously. Eileen's wig gave him a much softer look, while the fur wig gives him a bit of an edge.
Chloe also finally has her permanent wig! She doesn't usually dress so dark, but she wanted to get in the Halloween spirit by dressing "goth". *whispers* Don't tell her the outfit is not goth, okay? *giggle*
Nevada is still in the process of a makeover. I had to start over from scratch and am having a hard time getting an even color with her face. :(
I'm also considering selling Emily (Melize). I haven't really bonded with her, and I'm getting a little dolly overwhelmed. Nobody else is in danger though, not yet.
Also, I made new icons the other night. I likes them muchly.

I just realized I'd never gotten around to posting the pictures I took when I went with my family to Sylvan Beach back in August. Heh. Wow.
"Must I hide in this shirt the whole time?"
Yes Kate, you have very sensitive resin skin. So there. :P

In other dolly related news, I've sold my Soony. Bye bye Jaynie! I just wasn't really that interested in her anymore. Yeah, she's pretty and all, but she just sat there most of the time, and she's too expensive an item to just sit there and look pretty, you know? I'm thinking maybe I just can't bond with anything bigger than an MSD. I'm going to use the money from Soony to hopefully purchase an MNF Shushu. I'm also selling some things on Ebay, and hopefully will sell enough to buy a Resinsoul/Bobobie Mei.

I felt like playing with my boys today. I've been itching to get a new family picture done with everybody, but two of my girls are still a work in progress. I had to start from scratch on my Nah (tentatively known as Nevada) as the MSC went on wrong and the only way to get it off was to sand everything. :( And Chloe is still waiting on her wig (that I paid for 9/16). So at least my boys were all good.

Now that Dalicious is over, I thought I'd share my entries for those not keeping track of it, hehe. Keep in mind, I was never actually as serious in this competition as I was with TQ, as I did this one more for just something to do, so the pictures aren't all that great.
We came in 9th out of 32 though! :)

I took Chloe shopping with me the other day and snatched a few pics. They aren't really the greatest, but that is because this was in a busy parking lot, and I was in a hurry to grab the shots before this car pulled into the parking space that I was crouching in. As soon as I snatched her up someone did, heh. Also, I have a few "preview" shots of my Nah. Her wig came in yesterday, and a few days back I had my first experience with MSC. Derek and Ish came out fine, but Nah's sealed funny, in which it looked kind of whiteish and flakey in some spots, and when I took one of my nails to them they flaked off revealing the original shiny plastic underneath. She was already matted when I got her, and the faceup went on top of that. I don't know what she was originally sealed with, so I don't know if the reaction was caused by that, or if I accidentally sprayed too much MSC on those areas. I'm hoping another coat will fix it and not make it look uneven, otherwise I'll have to sand the face and start from scratch, which would suck since I'm rather happy with how she came out.

So my new Papin is officially Chloe. I was calling her that in my head before I even officially won her, and it has stuck. Right now she's in a temporary wig until her blonde one arrives. I didn't find one with streaks, but I did find a cute blonde one that will do just fine, and maybe one day I'll find her perfect wig. I also painted her fingernails yesterday, which is a first for me. They came out about as sloppy as I do my own, which is kind of funny and the reason I never paint my own nails, heh!
I love this girl sfm right now though. She's definitely my youngest Pullip. I'm pegging her at about 17.
Sid also got some work done yesterday. Using some rhinestones I pulled off a shirt while I was bored, I gave her ear piercings, and a monroe. I think it looks awesome. The weapons lot that I bought arrived yesterday too, and Sid looks awesome with her new arsenal. What she has on her is only a small fraction of what I got.

...
I won a Nahhato.
:3
Cost me $49, and she's a custom. I plan on wiping her face and giving a go at it myself, as the custom job isn't the greatest. My small additions to make Derek's face the way it is has given me a smidgen of confidence that I won't screw it up too badly.
Dolly to do:
- Wait for Derek's freakin' wig. *grr*
- Hunt for a 8-9' blonde wig with either pink or red streaks, preferably in a shorter style, for my Papin.
- Decide if I want to name said Papin 'Chloe'.
- Squee over new Papin.
- Wait impatiently for Nahhato.
- Hunt for bitchin' 8-9' black wig for Nahhato.
- Wait impatiently for the order from Mimiwoo with all the lovely sneakers and a BJD outfit.
- Wait for the super cool weapon accessories lot I got off ebay.
- Wait for the tools, laptop, tactical vest, and sweater I got for the Taeyangs.
- Wait for DOA seller to get back to me on details of a blonde dreadlock wig.
- Wait for MSC.
- Bitch about having to wait for so many things.
- Seal Derek and Ish's faceups with said MSC.
- Decide if I really want to re-wig Emily.
- Look for ultra fine sanding paper.
- Ship out Haute (now say THAT out loud) glasses.
- Realize I'm about to own sixteen Pullips/Dals/Taeyangs. Along with the three BJDs, a Momoko, and a Jenny.
- Wonder where the hell to put them all.
- Realize I have way too much crap.
- But I'm a pack rat, so none of it will go.
:P

So I've had this idea in my head for a while that I may or may not eventually put to use in an actual pic fic, in which the majority of my dolls are some form of supernatural. Most of them I have pegged for what kind they would be, but that's about as far as we've gotten. Except for Eileen. Once she caught wind of the idea, she embraced it whole heartedly, and has been dying to pick up the role.
She sees dead people.

I hate buying things online that don't fit. (Hence a majority of my frustration for the BJD hobby)
So I just got that black fur wig that I bought for Derek today, that took almost two and a half weeks to get to me. Was supposed to be size 8-9.
It doesn't even fit my MSD right! It's gotta be a really small size 7-8. I'm really annoyed, because I've been dying to get Derek his own wig.
I contacted the seller and hopefully we'll work something out so I can get him his wig before October. *pout*
On the upside ... I'm getting a Papin! I'm so excited. She's already obitsu'd, and has most of her stock. I've wanted one for a while, but for some reason never bought her. I'm now going to start looking for blonde wigs with either pink or red streaks in them for her.
Also, I got my grabby hands on a hard to find coconut obitsu, for that Nahhato I swear I will get some day. I swear every time I try to buy her second hand I'm either too late or outbid. But one day! One day she will be mine.
Also, because of my recent obsession addiction fondness (eh heh) for Kelley Armstrong and her Otherworld books, I'm so so tempted to design a new dolly pic fic on it. Eileen is already rockin' the necromancer look right now. I'll do a photo shoot for her on my day off if the light is right. The main thing holding me back is figuring out how to go about it visually. The werewolves would be hardest to pull off. Do you know how hard it is to find decent looking 1/3 scale wolf figures?
Which leads me to pimp recommend Kelley Armstrong very highly if you're into paranormal/supernatural modern day novels with kick ass heroines, humor, action, and a lemon zest of romance/"intimacy". Seriously. Werewolves, witches, sorcerers, necromancers, half-demons, and yes *sigh* even vampires. No sparkles there. And they're only minor characters any way. ;) Did I mention werewolves? I love werewolves. And in her story they live just outside of Syracuse. Which is only about an hour from where I live, so a lot of the scenes she writes are at places I've been, since they also visit places like Buffalo and Albany. *geek*
And for the younger folks, she has a really awesome Young Adult series right now called the Darkest Powers, that is really awesome.
Okay. I'm done.
I fecking love Kelley Armstrong.

So it's been a while since I've taken decent pictures of any of my dolls that weren't for a contest. Because of this, I decided to go on a journey! We went to my favorite park where I fell and scraped up my knee, then we got lost it downtown Binghamton trying to find a place for cool urban shots, but failed, then to find my favorite junk pile behind the mall (featured in my episode where Sasha admits to Sid how he feels about Luca, or whatever) only to find they cleaned it up, a fair in the process of being set up, and then the railroad tracks down in Sanitaria Springs.
I'm tired. Heh.
Featured: Dakota, Eileen, Derek, Kate, and Charlie.
Don't mind me, I have a fascination with rail road tracks.
( Anyway, onto the pictures! )

Ya know, as if it hasn't been obvious already. It's been a while since I've done a new episode. I think I'm running out of steam/motivation for the story line. I'm half thinking of starting something new, but there's the problem with perhaps having to change characters around, and call me lame, but I have a hard time doing that. Heck, the only doll to do a total change with me has been Alexei -> Derek. Mostly because I couldn't bond with him. I mean I know they're just dolls, but still. Heh. Anyway. Expect regular photos, but probably not another episode for a while longer. :(

Hmm. I was a bit disappointed by the lay out of this entry. I wanted to actually take them into the forest for these shots. Alas, the only time I could actually take pictures was the day that it poured. That backdrop of carpet kept falling over too. It was also a bit on the dark side so I'm not so sure I got the quality I wanted.
Ah well, I had a lot of fun with Eileen anyway. Makes me really want to get a doll to permanently zombie-fy.
Alas I shall shortly be broke, as $4,000+ of my life's savings will be going to a car I just committed to buy. I'm worried I'm over paying, but what can you do? I'm nervous as hell hoping it will be a good buy. Cherry red Grand Am GT Coupe, 1995 (It's the year making me nervous) 90,000 miles. Car is in beautiful shape though, she really is a looker. And ZOMG she works! Like, I have a radio, and AC, and the power windows work! Did I mention the brakes are awesome too? And she actually accelerates, and doesn't sound like a beast with laryngitis! I might just name her Cherry. First there was Shadow (Dodge Shadow), then there was Patches (Best car EVAR in the world, Dodge Spirit, was many colors from repairs), and now is my dying Gundam (1992 Pontiac Grande Am SE sedan).
Got a little side tracked there, hunh? I'm SO NERVOUS! That's a lot of money. For me. I'll be left with a couple hundred dollars to my name afterward.
( ANYWAY! On to the pictures. )

I finally got some decent pictures of my new Momoko for the twenty minutes that I had sun a few days ago. I swear, this gloomy rainy every day crap is terrible for my photography. Or maybe I'm just terrible for my photography? :P Also! Two new dollies, Joon on a Momoko body, and the Dals mugged some dolls at the flea market for their clothes.
( Enjoy. :) )

So yeah, I caved and bought a Momoko. Although I really doubt I'll be tempted to purchase more, as in general I'm just blah about them. But I couldn't resist Lazy Seventeen. Just something about made me go "I WANT DIS NAO!!1BBQ". I had her on her original body for about, oh, four hours. By which time I was slowly getting more and more disenchanted with her.
Then I decided "BODY SWAP TIEM!!!".
First I put her on Joon's body, and I didn't like the look (25cm), so then I put her on Kaida's body (27cm little bubbies) and it was instant love again.
But then I had two headless Pullips. So Kaida then stole Joon's body, and Joon stole the Momoko body. I actually like the Momoko body on Joon a lot better than I liked it on the Momoko. It's little girlish, and the head tilt options are ADORABLE. I might hold off on buying another obitsu for a while. Kaida looks like a little girl now, but she's not complaining too much. I'll have to update with pictures shortly.
My Momoko's name is Charlie. I'd decided on it when I first saw her.
What? I have a thing for naming boys feminine names, and naming girls masculine names. (for example, Sasha and Sid)
And I'm reaaaally behind on my pic fic. Eesh. It's been a while, heh. I tried to aim for last Thursday, but then I had to do the TQ shoot, go to see my eye doctor, and help a friend pick out something to wear when she got married the next day. In which they had decided exactly one week earlier they were getting married. Heh. Silly gooses.
Maybe tomorrow I can do an episode? We'll have to see, heh. I know what is going to happen, I just need to actually shoot it, heh.
Anyway, enough rambling. Ta!

And about the pic fic, heh, sorry about the wait. My days off have been consumed by friends and family lately. There's been something going on every weekend, and on my Thursdays, so yeah. I'm gonna aim for the next episode by this Sunday.
And ZOMG I AM SO EXCITED FOR THE TAEYANG QUARTERLY!!!11!WTFBBQ
I have been waiting since last year for this.
