Toxica Plus

One of my favorite doll photographers goes by the name aquabluerose and posts regularly on Prego. I am not a collector of the beautiful Sybarite dolls but I appreciate her collection and her images. Gerri knows how to edit. I am sure she takes scores of pictures at each photo shoot and then chooses the best and only the best to post. It's so boring to open a post and see pictures of the same doll in the same outfit with a fraction of difference between each of about 10 pictures. I never look past the first two or three. But when one amazing image is posted I spend time oohing and aahing. 
Today she posted pictures of Toxica. Here is one of them:

Toxica "Sun"

After enjoying those, I drifted over to her website, infidel, to look at more.

Toxica "Blood Flower"

Play "Armadillo"

Just For Fun, a Composite

Click on the picture to see it full-sized. I took some of my old Misaki pictures and combined them with new ones. I like looking at pictures of dolls I have no longer or that I rarely play with.

Paranormal Misaki

Kill me now. I've started up with the Misakis again. I thought I kicked the habit a few years ago when I sold my entire collection. Sigh. I tell myself it's OK because I'm not pre-ordering and paying retail. I'm hunting for bargains and finding them. (It's a sickness.)

I removed Paranormal's hat because it hides her lovely hair. She is so pretty.

Since purchasing Red Rabbit Misaki, seen below in Go Home's outfit,  Paranormal Misaki, Pure Evil Misaki, Ye-Ye Amelie and Royal Amelie have joined the tribe.

Misaki dolls' feet are larger than Nu-Face/Fashion Royalty feet. I didn't want to force the red boots onto her. The shoes are a Volks' product.


Yes, these are point and shoot photos. My bad.

OVAZ Fall 2011 Sneak Peeks

Ovaz keeps getting better and better. Not only are his designs wonderful, his photography rocks.  Here are a few pieces from the coming collection called DRAMA. These fashions are designed to fit AG, Ficon, Deva, Sybarite, Numina, Jamieshow and similarly sized dolls.

 

 

I love this doll.

Go North Makes an Appearance

I rarely apologize for my photography because I delete the trashy ones and fix up the rest if necessary. But I'm apologizing for taking picture of this beautiful Isha doll with a point and shoot camera. She does deserve studio time.

I was pleasantly surprised with this lovely creature. Everything works - her hair is done very well without over-processed ends; her makeup is perfect for the color and style of the fashion. If only she had an FR2 body...sigh. I will probably snip a few of the feathers that are interfering with her face but otherwise I won't change a thing.

Reinterpreted Runway Fashions - Shoes

My friend Petra from Germany found this reinterpretation by Fashion Doll Agency used on their Poete model. The originals (bottom right) are by Theyskens for Nina Ricci. Dramatic shoes!
