Carboot 12.07.20

You know what it means - thelookout historical ones - the first two after end of lockdown (aka 'inbetween waves').
I went alone, by bus, wearing a facemask...there have been fewer stalls and fewer buyers, everybody a bit shy to touch anything...

I didn't get super lucky but it felt great and I was on a kids' for kids stuff they declared interest in during lockdown games...

The first one was very shabby and small but I managed to get these feather-weight hollow vintage clones.
I have a soft spot for these...so sad a tacky...spooky twins...




Things have been done to them...but at least someone played with them...




here they are - cleaned and brushed - still creepy-cute and waiting for their diorama moment...



Edit
Still no proper photoshoot but I was 'lucky' enough too purchase yet another set of soft-shell clone dolls - this time rubbery brunette and dark-haired 'Cindies' ;-)

I think they will do a great job as paranoid timid set of sisters!

Just look eat them!

£ 0.99 stash (163 & 164)

Ok ok, one more post starting from 'OOops I did it again'....
but when you see poor, unloved more and less quality ladies out there in cold wide internetz for bloody £ 0.99 you just need to save them.
I shouldn't have... not even single brunette, damn


so the parcel brought to me two almost  interesting clones I hoped to dapt and ooak but have run out of time/space/moved houses...



They have sad lght hollow bodies but 'Skipper's face seemed interesting, but even dark lipstick couldnt save the bad mold of the 'mum'.

Then I had two nude Disney vicitims... molded bodice Ana and shrinken bosy Rapunzel...
I didnt want to spoil my daughter with commercial stuff so just took it to her nursery to be enjoyed indirectly;-)


Then come two dolls to whom I actualy decided to give tehir own numbers - one is Disney store Cindirella (No 163) whom I wond decapitate as her vintage charm is unquestionable... not sure if she will become the next Marilyn Monroe or a fallen Snow White in rerooted dark hair style (once upon a time when I have time)...

poor girl atm but camera loves her!
 so unnocent and sweet... 
but so sensual with soft focus;-) vintage nudes...





promissing - morey edgy, high contrast take....




so hot!




 My doll nr 164 is Blonde Lea - 
my first Tall Body Evolution Barbie - 2016 Fashionista- Flower Flair

 on arrival and as new:

She has beautiful classic Barbie golden wavy waist length hair with front section nicely sun-kissed.
Speaking of the waist - despire beign annoingly stiff I adore how flat-hested and not curvy at the slightest she is! Just straight lean and slender <3

This is one of my fav molds so works great in front of camer 'even' with this hairstyle...




 I am definitely changing her eye/lips colour as this combo is unacceptable in my (after 91) doll world... but her hair give me possibility of making my own Shakira or undercut Fashionista 44 for fraction of this £ 0.99, hmmm - internet says yes! ;-)
