So the last to show off is Lini, my newest bitty baby. She is a Dollzone MiniBB Luna. She's smaller than a Yo - about Lati Yellow size. She has huge eyes! XD She moves really well and has excellent posability and balance - go DZ! I think she's cute. :3 I got her second hand off DoA and after some frustration with her faceup being a mess on arrival, I wiped her and sent her off to Belladonna with the boys.
What I asked was basically this: Lots of pink. Lini is a carniverous Fairy. She should look terribly cute from afar with enough detail close up that you start noticing she's really evil-looking; off-putting enough that you start thinking she might eat you if you turn your back! >D
What I got was pretty darn perfect. X3
Lini's story: Lini is a Fairy. Yes, the same kind of Fairy that Doyle is constantly yelling at people for calling him. The evil little bastards that eat people. They love sidhe flesh, especially when it's still wriggling. Get me? Not the nice kind of fairy, okay? Fairies are about 2 feet tall and typically super skinny, almost skeletally skinny, and their bones are hollow like birds so they're really light. They have wings and yes, they do fly.
Fairies are cousins to Pixies, except while Pixies are mischevious, they're generally not sadistic, flesh-eating carnivores who thrive on blood and battle. Fairies... are. Lini differs slightly from her Fairy family in that she is significantly better fed, and has to work a lot less hard for her food. As a result, she's not anything like skinny; in fact, you might say she waddles somewhat. She's too heavy to fly, but she's still super strong like the rest of her kin and has wicked sharp teeth. How did she get like this? Well... most fairies live with other fairies that they have to share their kill with. They also have to go out and kill animals or... other fae, and waste a lot of effort hunting in packs only to divide it up. This uses a lot of energy for a limited amount of food. Lini lives here, on Earth, surviving by basically attaching herself permanently to someone's side and funneling energy through this person to themselves to keep them from Fading (fae term, if you don't know it just think: getting sick and dying, which fae will do when they are cut off from the magical energy of faerie). She hunts on her own and it's not really hard when most humans look at a little 2-foot waddling doll-thing and think 'oh, that's not a threat'. One 6-foot human feeds one tiny fairy for quite a while. >3
Lini is also different in that while most Fairies don't make deals with anything other than another Fairy, Lini has been making deals with the Big Folk for a very long time while doing her thing on Earth - since she's alone here. One of her deals was with Alex. Now she owes him. Big time. She is repaying him by acting as Pru's bodyguard, essentially. She's attached herself to Pru. Pru carries her around like a doll. Everywhere. Lini eats anyone silly enough to threaten Alex's god-daughter. Lini gets to stay well-fed and gets the protection of living with Pru and her Mom, and Jane (the human bodyguard), in a place where she herself is relatively safe and no one is trying to kill her per say. All in all, it's not the worst deal for Lini, and she's a good bodyguard for Pru. So everyone's happy. XD
Picture-taking began at 8am so forgive the few dark ones. ^^;

YAY! TY!! W00t!!
So next up on the picture-list is Ty - Tyson Fletcher. My charming little sociopath. Eeeheehee~ :D So call me crazy, I'm totally in love with this boy. He is slightly off-putting, sure. He's totally the charming guy next door who dresses well and is polite to all the neighbours... then one day the cops come 'round asking questions like 'How long have you known Mr. Fletcher for? Were you aware he had over a dozen bodies buried in his backyard?' and everyone's like D: 'What? I had no idea~ He was such a nice boy~'
Now don't get me wrong, my love for Ty is only partly because it's fun to be evil sometimes (as a writer, just like actors who play good guys all the time must love to cut loose and play the villain every once in a while ;3). The rest of it is just that... he's interesting. He doesn't think like most people (me included). It takes me hours to work through his motivation for the simplest of things; it took me months to develop his relationships with friends and lovers and to really get a grip on why someone who says he doesn't care about other people would even bother to have friends and lovers and how he would justify treating them well or not well depending on what he needs them for. His insecurities and his paranoia, his needs and the base emotions that drive him are fundamentally different than the rest of my characters. He is at once my most stable, most sane, most level-headed character, and my craziest, all at the same time. Also one of my most lethal and dangerous characters... and one of my most broken and tragic, too. He's fun to think about is all I'm saying. Fun to write and interesting to have in my head.
Basically, he may be mean and cruel sometimes, but he's also charming and gorgeous and utterly irresistable to me (and on occasion, to others). I don't know if I can properly explain why or how I adore him so much, but I do. T__T So there. No apologies. :P
And now he's here in doll form and he has a face now and he's GORGEOUS! The Limho Mono has an AMAZING body. Lean and tall with sexy sexy legs. >3 And butt-dimples. The face mold has this tendency to be a bit pudgy-cheeked and 'nice-boy' looking, but Belladonna did an amazing job making him look just awesomely gorgeous and smirky and a bit mean and cold and just PERFECT for Ty! :D He has a very pale look and I am STILL glad I bought him in Pinky-White French Resin because it is so translucent and beautiful and a totally gorgeous colour. I have him set up in my dolly bunk bed now (OMG HE'S NOT IN HIS BOX XDDD). He's on the bottom with Con - yes, with Con :P they cuddle, so what? anyone got something to say about that? it's an uncomfortable truce, I think Con feels bad for him because everyone else in the house would kill Ty as soon as look at him and he's the only one who can stand being around him (ironic, I know) anyway, they don't do anything - and I've draped a blanket over them so they're in the dark and out of the light. STILL PARANOID ABOUT LIGHT. Yes... Yes, I am. ^^; But he's too pretty now to put away. T_T
See what I mean?

So I got most of my crew back from Belladonna last week and I am SO happy with them! The boys are SO sexy! And Lini is so cute... and so evil looking! XD It's awesome.
The 3 I have back are Connor, Ty, and Lini. Of these, I think Con is my favourite. His face is actually very much the same - still with lots of brown and earth-tone colours, heavier brown eyebrows, natural looking lips, cute little smirk, he even still has his freckles! But now it's TEN TIMES BETTER than my own faceup. XD Belladonna has some serious skill and she has totally brought Con into his own and made him look exactly like how I always pictured him. O_O So awesome... I am in love all over again... ^^
I took lots of pictures last week (I took a doll a day to work and took pictures on the way :O), so I'll be splitting this into 3 posts - one for each doll. After that, I'll post on DoA with just 12 pictures (4 for each) - so it will be only my favourite pictures! If you want to wait until I get that up, you're welcome to just look at those - I tend to take lots of pictures and I know it can be hard on people's computers - especially dial-up-ers. ^^;;;
BUT! That said, if you don't read my LJ posts, you won't get the dialogue. XD
Anyhoo... without further ado...

So I did it! :D I managed to sell enough that I could make an offer for a partial trade on a body and I got it. :3 It was an insane deal, let me tell you (he had a broken finger and a few dings around his neck, but otherwise is in perfect condition - and frankly I kind of thought the broken finger was fitting considering why I need the body ^^;). Anyhoo, right place, right time, definitely. I'm happy, the other DoA-er is happy... it's so nice when everything works out. XD
I still do not have heads for these two. Alex's new head is paid for but I don't know if it's even shipped from Japan yet. :\ Y!J buying is so slow through a shopping service... I never realized just how much... But anyhoo. Yay, he's paid!! :D So awesome.
Lini, Ty, and Connor have been repainted and should also ship home soon. From the pictures, they look amazing! :O I can't wait to see them in person. I'll share later; I don't want to jinx them! ><
For now, I will share pics of the body, 'cuz it's too cool seeing the difference in Alex's old bod. I never had another Volks Beauty-White to compare him to so I really had no idea how he was aging - but the new body is almost like new. It may have aged from time, but is a perfect even colour all over and I don't think has been in the sun much if at all, so there is definitely a difference. :3
First, box-opening shots. The person I traded with told me not to freak out when I saw the box and assured me the body was well-packed, so really... I was prepared for this...
tiny box.

And yet... I was still (couldn't quite help it) a tiny bit... freaked out. Have an Alex!bod for reference:

( Do you see why I was a little worried? Cut for the rest - only 8 total )
So ya... pretty happy with this. Now, if Morbidollz can put Alex's broken head back together he will at least have a body, and if she can't... well then I will have to figure out what to do with that situation if it happens, when it happens. I'm trying to just take things as they come at this point. :)

One more post of doll pics taken before last weekend. These were taken after a doll meet at our local gathering spot at The Forks. It was sooooo hot! D: It must have been like +30ºC (+86ºF) and humid. OMG I ran from shade to shade and still I was so uncomfortably hot... T_T The sun was also wicked bright. T__T Still... I had taken four dolls just so I could get pics, and dammit I was determined! XD They were heavy~
Anyhoo. Here are some group pics of my kids: Ray (Tony), Mischa (SWD Syo), Ni (Mimi13), and Wynn (Liz by blanki). All these guys are friends (in my story). Ray and Em are boyfriends, Wynn is a friend of Ray's (her daughter, Pru, is Ray's God-Daughter [or was when he was with Alex, anyway - and for the sake of the dear little 6-year-old's mind still is as far as she knows]), and Ni became friends with them all through her friendship with Alex. They had fun together, I think, even with me pausing every so often and forcing them to take pretty group pictures for me! >3
Ray first because he doesn't get photographed enough by me, poor boy! ^^;

( Few shots dedicated to Ray. :) 'Cuz he deserves it. )

Okay, so I was struggling to move my sales post to DoA, but DoA is being incredibly stupid and it's frustrating me so I decided to post some pics, instead. I took these a couple weeks ago and never got around to posting them. So today I shall.
Everyone remember Amy? She's a Volks Amelia with faceup by sakuli. She can be a little 'starey' sometimes (it's the big eyes, I think ^^), but look! Freckles~

( more of the gorgeous SD16 body hiding beneath Amy's tom-boy exterior - 13 pics total )
Sigh...
Staring at pretty makes me feel a little bit better. :) I'm gonna go get a dolly now so I can have somebody on my knee... And no! Not the headless boy~

The sun starts heading toward the horizon and lighting starts getting... interesting. I am still SO happy with my new camera. T_T My old one would never have taken non-blurry shots even in this light - which is still plenty of light really! Sony is LOVE!! :D
We passed by some flowers near the mall and stopped for a quick Ani shoot. Flowers have been amazing this year - it's all the rain, I'm sure! Non-stop freaking rain... but these flowers loved it, anyway, they were spilling over the planters on all sides and SO vibrant... Have I mentioned I like vibrant colour? ^^

Wandering home, we found a bit of green space in the urban jungle and decided to exploit it. >3 I like vibrant colours - reds, greens, etc. in my backgrounds - can you tell? I love how the dolls' colours pop against them. Speaking of popping colour, Keeley's cute lil' knit is courtesy of

Took Aniqa and Keeley to work yesterday and spent the evening wandering home, taking pictures, missing buses, taking more pictures... ^^; It was fun. It was such a gorgeous day yesterday! It was nice to be outside. :3
I got some cute pictures of the two sisters, I think. I'm trying out new eyes in Aniqa - a gorgeous purple pair I traded for last weekend. They are so pretty... Not sure if they will stay, but I like them better than her defaults, I think - not sure... I have yet to really find a pair of eyes that scream "Aniqa" to me, I really have no idea what colour I want her for. XD So it's mostly trial and error trying to find the perfect pair for her...
I also got a new outfit for Keeley - at the same meet - and OMG it fits her so nice! XD It's a DZ outfit, so it should fit, but it's amazing... Keeley has clothes an' all, but most of it is 'a little off here, a little off there, a little tight here...' It fits okay, but not perfectly, and this fits perfectly and is cute to boot. I am ecstatic. :)
And okay before I ramble too much more, on to the pictures! I'll split this into 3 posts so it doesn't kill anybody's compies (there were lots of pictures I liked - I took 450+... I was out a long time... >>).
If anyone wants to wait a bit, I'll be posting on DoA after I post here and that post will be limited to my favourite 12 from the shoot. I'll link it in post 3/3.
Let's start with the obligatory dolls-on-a-bus photos. XD

So I haven't been playing with my dolls much lately and I was starting to miss them, so I decided I'd sneak Em into my bag and take him to work with me. ^^ On the way to work and on the way home I got some sweet shots - including bus shots (yay bus!! :D) and some sunset pictures that turned out nice with the light. :) Nothing breakthough or artsy here, just sweet shots of a sweet boy. :3
I realized I don't have too many shots of Em - don't know why... I guess he's still pretty new, to me. But I do love him so, so... Ya. Here ya go. :)

Yes! Well... sort of a new boy. XD Sean has been around for a few months now... as a head. He is still just a head, but I was waiting on the perfect accessory to make him uniquely... well, Sean, and then pris gave it to me for my birthday. ^^; Thank you, pris!! :)
So, Sean the new boy is Alex's new roommate and friend. Technically, he made his first appearance back in February in a short bit of story I called "The Garbage-Bag Prince", but since only 2 people actually replied to the post, I really have no idea how many of you actually read it. XD So I'll do a short recap. ^^;
Sean is a five-foot-four wiry bundle of wit and charm. A graphic artist from Ohio, Sean has run away to Canada because of a bit of a crazy!stalker-ish ex-boyfriend, but he's not one to let something like that get him down. ;) He cheered up Alex when Alex was feeling really down about just being dumped (again and seemingly for the final time) by Cy, who he really wasn't doing well without. But Sean was funny and easy-going and they hit it off... Of course, Alex being insanely gorgeous, Sean did eventually try to get a little closer than friends, but that ended a little err... awkwardly. So now they're just friends. Er. Yes.
They get along well and Alex and Sean both needed a roommate (Sean because he's broke and living in a crap apartment in a new city where he doesn't know anyone, and Alex because Aidan got sick of his unreliable nature [because Alex would fail to come home a lot and this was a problem for the similarly fae boy who requires a body next to him for a good night's sleep] and left). So after a few weeks of hanging out, Alex invited Sean to move in with him as his roommate, and since Alex's place was much much nicer (and rent-controlled), Sean did.
Sean doesn't know Alex is fae. Sean thinks Alex has emotional problems and is scared to sleep alone. So far, this hasn't been much of an issue. Sean doesn't sleep around and Alex... well, if he does, then he sleeps with someone else when he does and Sean gets the bed to himself - which is nice, once in a while, for a person. But most nights yes, they sleep together. And no, they are not, nor have they ever had sex.
Was that brief enough? Basically, Sean is a total side character and I wasn't expecting him to show up in resin form but... he was too cute. Yes. That's all there really was to it. I saw this boy second-hand on DoA and I fell in love. I watched the thread for weeks wondering who would get to take him home, telling myself I was broke and couldn't afford it... but then he didn't sell. And he didn't sell. And he didn't sell. And his price dropped and dropped again and then he came with his wig, and he came with his eyes, and eventually I was a bit like 'Okay! Okay! Stop twisting my arm, Fate!! Ow! Ow!'
:)
So he came home. And he gets to share Mischa's body, same as Wynn. Em was happy about that, oh yes... (not). But at least both Sean and Em are boys, so that part of it isn't so odd. XD
Annnnnnnnnnnnd now, without any further ado, I give you all... Sean.

So, Sean the new boy is Alex's new roommate and friend. Technically, he made his first appearance back in February in a short bit of story I called "The Garbage-Bag Prince", but since only 2 people actually replied to the post, I really have no idea how many of you actually read it. XD So I'll do a short recap. ^^;
Sean is a five-foot-four wiry bundle of wit and charm. A graphic artist from Ohio, Sean has run away to Canada because of a bit of a crazy!stalker-ish ex-boyfriend, but he's not one to let something like that get him down. ;) He cheered up Alex when Alex was feeling really down about just being dumped (again and seemingly for the final time) by Cy, who he really wasn't doing well without. But Sean was funny and easy-going and they hit it off... Of course, Alex being insanely gorgeous, Sean did eventually try to get a little closer than friends, but that ended a little err... awkwardly. So now they're just friends. Er. Yes.
They get along well and Alex and Sean both needed a roommate (Sean because he's broke and living in a crap apartment in a new city where he doesn't know anyone, and Alex because Aidan got sick of his unreliable nature [because Alex would fail to come home a lot and this was a problem for the similarly fae boy who requires a body next to him for a good night's sleep] and left). So after a few weeks of hanging out, Alex invited Sean to move in with him as his roommate, and since Alex's place was much much nicer (and rent-controlled), Sean did.

Okay, so it was my birthday on Wednesday, and pris asks me, 'What do I want for my birthday?', and I'm like... mushy-lovey pictures of Alex and Cy! *dork* :D
But pris is a nice person and ignores my dorkiness and says, 'Okay.' :)
So Alex got to hang out with Cy on my birthday and I got my mushy!lovey!cutie pictures and I was happy. :3
It should be noted, of course, that this did not happen. Okay? Cy and Alex are still not together. If anything, if these pictures need to fit in anywhere time-line-wise... this is like... a daydream, maybe. Or perhaps they are just pictures from a long time ago that got stuck in a drawer somewhere and found later...
They still make me happy. And they make Alex happy.
But, this did not happen last Wednesday.

( Cut for Dorkish!Cute. Lots of Dorkish!Cute. 28 seperate occurrences of Dorkish!Cuteness. )
And that was my birthday wish. :) Well, part of it. Was awesome. Good times.
Yay Mushiness! :3

So... couple months back now... I put a pre-order in for a certain somebody... and now he's here. A lot of people are really not happy that he is. A certain someone is not sure if he's happy or not. Another certain someone is dreaming of murder... when she can sleep, that is.
The new boy is staying in his box... under my bed... safe and sound from anyone who might er... have a problem with him. Problem is, he's taken to dragging the uncertain boy into said box with him... which, if he keeps doing it, is going to end up forcing trouble to come looking for him no matter where he's tucked away. Eventually.
Being tucked away also keeps him safe from UV rays. Because even though Ni has tan lines and I think she's cuter for them... the new boy doesn't just tan... he yellows. Badly. Like butter-cream yellow by all accounts... so... I'm trying to avoid that for as long as possible.
Yes, that's right, the new boy is French resin.
He had to be special.
Because no matter what else he may be... Ty is always special.

( Cut for the rest of the new boy's first shoot + arrival shots - 21 total )
So yay! For those unsure, Ty is a Limho Mono from Limhwa. He is about 2cm taller than an unoa boy but has a lean, lithe body that is to die for. OMG is he ever pretty. O___O He poses beautifully. Sturdier posing than a Volks, which tends to just fall in (or out of) place naturally (with an ease that is incredibly addictive to Volks collectors like me), but he has a lot of attitude and I absolutely canNOT get over how perfect this body is for the character. Ty. OMG what an ass Ty is. What an incredibly charming, beautiful, dangerous, sexy sexy ass... *__* And this boy is perfect. He has dimples!! On his butt-cheeks! XD Okay, was that tmi? But they are cute. Nuts, I didn't get pictures of them! >< Ah, well... I will later. >D
He doesn't have a face, yet. Obviously. :P I really want Lyn_r to do it (I think she'd be perfect for Ty), but she's not open right now and won't be taking commissions (she told me, she thinks) until late August, maybe. :( So... he's gonna wait.
But basically, YAY! :) I am happy. Maybe I am too happy. >> Why do I love him so much? Ty is a sociopath, or well... he acts like one. He is definitely dangerous and he does NOT feel emotions like regular people. This does not mean he doesn't feel emotions... and he certainly has a lot of reasons for being as screwed up as he is, but essentially Ty just wasn't 'built right'. He is manipulative, and loves being that way, and proving just how much smarter he is than other people; proving just how weak everyone else is and how strong he is by taking advantage of people and using them... Geez, he's awful! And I love him so much. ;____; He's really a lot more vulnerable and needy than he-- Okay, he's not gonna let me talk about that. In fact, he's insisting I strike out that whole last bit, or at least claim it is complete fabrication. Okay, so ignore that last bit. Vulnerable. Please... Ty is not that. No. That is a complete lie.
>>
:) Love him. I love him so much.
And I love Limhwa!! They are so sweet. They called him a 'gift' and I didn't pay customs!! :D And to top it off, they gift-wrapped him. Bow and everything! OMG it was so pretty! LookLook!!

How sweet is that? :3 So sweet.

It's back to being chilly and not in the least bit like Spring - except that it keeps spitting rain at us and we're flooding like crazy of course. Go Team Winnipeg!! :D
Anyhoo. Despite the temperature... there is, at least, NO MORE SNOW!! :D YAY! And the light was also REALLY nice for pictures, bright but cloudy. :) So I took the opportunity today to do a little photoshoot. Just me an' Wynn by the swollen Red River, enjoying the NO SNOW. :3
Condensed version of this post (top 10 favourites only) is up, here on Den of Angels. Thanks. :)
Lookit! There it is behind her - the Red River. Flooded up and over the monkey trails (bike paths that follow the river - normally not covered with water! XD), drowning proud and stately trees and covering the banks with nutrient-rich silt that will make them grow even BIGGER once the water goes down. ^^ Fun times, Winnipeg.

( cut for the rest - 26 total - she's too cute!! )
But anhoos... so ya. I really am starting to like her on a boy body... it has such great tomboy lines! Aside from the lack of breasts (which yes, I would have to do something about...) and the man-parts (ditto), the actual line of the torso I really like! >< I'm starting to think I might just get her a boy body and mod it... >> That might be kinda cool... ^^

Aiya, Ani sure has fun dressing her sister... ^^; Truthfully, Keely couldn't care less what (if anything) she was wearing... but her sister makes sure she does (wear something) and usually has a lot of fun picking out what. :3 For such a slightly crazy girl, she certainly has a lot of elegance, always dainty and careful in her movements, and dressed up nice, she seems so much more cool and classy than crazy - that's probably a good thing? ^^; Heh.

( cut for the rest + some extras of the city )
And then we have a few nice shots of the city at night. Mostly this was just me experimenting with my camera and seeing what it could do, but... still, I like these. I like Winnipeg. :3
Sunset by my work.

Yay!! I got pics of 3 of my darlings on the bus in the last week! :D Amy and Kist came with me to miffimifster's the other day (where I said a sad goodbye to her Irvin, who is up as a feeler and will likely be leaving the city ;_;) and I got pics of the girls on the bus and on the way over. :)
Yes! I am obsessed with dolly bus pictures, thank you. ;3 It is a little quirk o' mine. Keely also came to work with me this past week and I got pics of her, too (will be up in the next post ;3).
For now, Amy & Kist (with a couple of miffi's Irvin in here, too).
They are an adorable size together - like my dolly has a dolly!! XD

( cut for more, 22 in total )

( one of the city - look no snow!!! :D )

I didn't get pictures of too many dollies at this meet - just a few, but I will share. :) If I name any doll mold wrong or get the owner's name wrong, please let me know! >< I'm sorry~
List of molds inside the cut: Volks SWD Nono, Volks Tan Cecile Scarface, Bambicrony PingPing, Abio Angel Ling (LOTS of this boy ^^), Volks Pearl, Volks Amelia, Puki Strider.
And the other bit of good news? Amy got new eyes! Yay~ She can stop stealing Shy's. XD She now has a pair of default Elf Ducan eyes and they are such a brilliant blue, I am very happy. :) She also has eyelashes now! XD Yes! Go me~ They are blond and not easily seen, but they're there! ^^

( CUT for Meet Pictures - 17 total )
And that's it for general meet pictures - I'll post again with pics of Amy and Meryl that I took at the meet, too. :)

So we had a dollie meet yesterday and before I even got there, I started taking pictures. I haven't got pics of one of my babies on the bus in a while, so Yay! I got Meryl on the bus, today. :)
Interesting note~ I also got a NEW CAMERA!!! :D I am so happy~ It has a lot more manual control, image stabalization and adjusts to low light much better than the old one. :) I'm still getting the hang of it, but it's super duper. It's another Sony - a Sony Cybershot DSC H10 - and it is not an SLR, but it's definitely getting closer! It feels like an SLR training camera - like a bike with training wheels - not quite the full deal but it forces you to gain the skills for it. ;3 Next time I upgrade, I think it will be to an SLR, but for now, this lil' guy is more than enough for me. ^^;
Lookit me! I has depth of field!! Not too much, but some! XD It's an improvement~

So these two, as I believe I have mentioned, have been practically inseperable. I have no idea what's going on, but am going with the flow~ ^^;
Amy (Amelia) and Merolanna (Pearl)
Interesting, no? They look good together, too. :3

( 4 lovey-dovey extras )
And a little "Where are they now?" action - cuddled together in my armchair. :3
