Sindy Hasbro (No 213)

 I have been reading something about them or eyeballing an ebay auction when I saw her in the wild aka my favourite toy / kids charity...Her hair was a disaster and her face's profile is well flat...but at long last she got reduced and I couldn't say no...

...finds of teh day...

So since she has violet eyes and a fringe I assume she is one of these 

yeah, almost sure now it's her - i think I even have her very 80's white ankle boots as well as ear-muffs in fact! mayve even the leggings if there has been colour variations)...

Her horse-riding clothes are much older however...

 poor thing waited over an year to be take for a pictures walkie...

but it has been a grand one - best of British - Kew Gardens!

She is ironically wearing a Sindy t-shirt from teh latest re-edition doll

 and lo-fi 80's mumsy elasticated skirt.

So many people but I was sneaky...

This ancient horsetail looks very much like bamboo for dolls :-)

Purple was essential in this photo session...

Matching her skirt.

...and few classisc.

My doll nr. 98

After finding Melrose at carboot sale I tottaly fell in love with Moxie Teenz scale, proportions and their haunting eyes... Melrose however has tanned skin but her blue eyes and pearly lips are screaming blonde... I dreamed about mixed-race or brunette doll...

I found Tristen on eBay, nude and not so over-priced as most of these discontinued dolls are...and for the first time I  bidded on my mobile phone while in different town;-)
(On that day, while visiting seaside i found a nice shop with lots of miniatures, wigs and figurines and managed to get some chocolate brown medium length hair pieces for my future projects).

oh the sheer excitement of a new delivery!

tadaaaa

Fair skin and lavender-brown eyes with lashes to die for...

and a first portrait...

I first started with playing with Liv's wigs - so many possibilities, so much fun!

Although she is assigned as a pale brunette I think I love her the most in wavy dark brown hair, hmmm

Few months later I was still stuck playing around with wigs (and better camera) - as I don't have many clothes in their scale and officially no time to sew...

sisters <3

...her original outfit and packaging (no, thank you)

..and here she is with Bijou (maybe one day...) and in different owners styling...

Bootsale discoveries

hello,
today i prepared a story about a little monster - another discovery-on-a-plate so to speak... surprising yet obvious...While at car boot sale... she got my attention with 1. purple hair, 2. articulated body 3. acrylic eyes, 4.she had clothes an dshoes on, 5. price 50p is worth spending for rebodying or re-paint option always;-)

quite an exciting set of colours (matching another of my 50 p purchase):

not so mysterious anymore:

to make a long story short - she is MGA Entertainment production or Bratz goes Monster High cause she is a commercial bitch...

 black magic and tattoos, uuuuuu

she turned out to be called Yasmina (and has few editions - this is wave 2) - Magic night out:

Clothes happily sold already... her body is a bit stiff and wobbly at the same time.. not even close to Loiv / fashionista yet with large MH feet... hair are quite wonderful with three shades of purple...

and 'animalistic' amber/honey eyes too... (ok, metallic cherry lipstick as well):

she, again, had to wait for months is a waiting-box;-) 

she seems to have quite a potential an da fan-base too...

I removed her make-up and tattoo and was quite pleased with how 'japanese' and 'alienesque' she looked...

I was very shy with my 'painting' this time...TBC

so innocent out of a sudden!
