Phew, just had a big clear out! Sugarmag, Momoko, Decole, Stock items. Also re-ment, dolls, skipper and other stuff.
Thanks for having a look :D
Mark and I got back from Venice late Saturday night - had a fabulous Birthday four day break. I even got a bowl of tiramisu complete with 'Happy Birthday' written on it in chocolate, candles and the waitress singing happy birthday to you. I am now back to reality with a bump.
A special thank you goes out to Miss Sith who's card I got when I arrived back home - the most perfect card a girl could wish for - I love you K!
I've shot all my films for my project now; tomorrow I go into the darkroom for a few solid days printing... I hope my lecturers like them. This term has been the most whirlwindy thing I could have imagined - two projects back to back and a bushel of essays.
I got my first project results today, the landscape one... a first (71%) woot! There is no way I am keeping this up though.
I'm uploading some digital scans of my latest project on my Flickr if you fancy a peek.
Back to the workbook.
I urgently need the help of all of my London or near London and Brighton based Blythe friends! I am shooting a documentary project at college this term and would like to shoot some of you lovely people holding your favourite girl. I am trying to get permissions/lecturers to agree my project at the moment so I can't say it is definitely going ahead until next Monday... but with that in mind:
I would need eight people either based in London and/or Brighton who would be available for a shoot either next week: Tuesday or Wednesday daytime, Wednesday evening (London only), Thursday or Friday afternoon/evening (London only) or next Saturday daytime. Ideally I'd like daytime shoots for better available light but I know many people obviously work.
I would come to you to shoot; so it could be your home, your work, a bar, a park - anywhere you like! It will take about an hour. I will be shooting film and will probably take half a roll to a roll for each person. You will of course get a lovely print/s for your generous time when the project is over!
Now, I know a lot of people are shy. I plan to shoot in two ways to get around this - people can hold their Blythe at waist height and will only shoot you from the shoulders down or you can hold your girl in front of your face. Hopefully this will encourage people to come forward! People volunteering will not be identified in any way in the pictures/titles/text and the pictures will be seen at most by 2 of my lecturers and 10 of my class at my critique at the end of term.
If you think you might like to take part please please get in contact - bobblelife [at] gmail [dot] com
Even if I do not get the go ahead I shall still do the project anyway (though over the Christmas break rather than next week) for my portfolio.
Thanks so much everyone!
The only thing I don't like is that after getting her home I discovered that one of her former owners must have been a smoker. Yicky.
She is now in detox. I've given her two baths, four hairwashes and two fabric conditioner treatments. Her legs and arms still stink and the top of her scalp too. I just hope I can get rid of that awful smell. Sadly, the clothes I put her in yesterday now stink too :( She is nude again sitting in a box of baking soda - I hope that helps.
If anyone has any ideas I'd be grateful. She is so beautiful she does not deserve to be smelly!
After taming the hair that did not want to be tamed, Anouk decided she wanted to stand in the sun today.
I heart skate dates.
Mmmm goldenrod eyechips - thanks Lydia.
I have a new girl arriving tonight. I'm going to pick her up from the Parcelforce depot afterwork. I am very very excited *squeee!*
I'm hoping she and Miss Pocket will be best friends. For a girl who prefers brunettes the fact that this is now my second blonde in a month is strange indeed.
I have picked out two names but we shall see whether she likes them once she's out of her box...
I sat the girls down last night and warned them that the current period of largesse will shortly be coming to an end when I go back to Uni mid-September - that means no more shoes. It's either dolly feast or dolly famine in our house ;o)
