Summer meet-up at the lakeside 13.-14.8.2016 Day two!

Luckily the second day of meet-up was better! Morning started with so beautiful weather we couldn´t have wished for more. Misha went for a morning swim in the lake. Jude rather enjoyed the water without dipping in - but he wet his feet, after all. Couldn´t resist trying that lovely little boat!

 

                                                 Menni, my first doll is now almost seven years old and still such a cutie. <3 

Daryl was exploring suspicious looking places and met some zombie figures, though they weren´t pictured together after all.

                                                        There were so many wonderful places to take photos! 

Jude is my own custom boy, I bought a MIO Isul set, but didn´t like the shape of nose that much after all. So I practised carving on him. Also made him a bit more smiley than regular Isuls are. I like him now, even still he is far from perfect. He got a wig from the meet-up (good place to sell, buy and trade!) and it makes him look cute!

It was hard to find him a name, and for long time he was just Isul (even still I tried many names) but when I was listening Beatles when packing for meet-up, I thought, why not Jude. And I kind of like it for him now.

 

In Sunday I didn´t take many pics of others than my own dolls. But wasn´t this little acrobat a cutie!

                                     All the crew of mine in group pic. I took along five very different dolls! :)

Thank you for everyone attending and for giving us the cabin for a meet-up place! It was once again so lovely to spend time together, talk, eat and play with dolls. :)

Summer meet-up at the lakeside 13.-14.8.2016 Day one!

I had chance to take part in adult hobbyists overnight meet-up of the PullipSuomi -forum! Enjoyed a lot for nice company and seeing so many different dolls! 12 lovely ladies of us had great time in the cabin at lakeside near Pieksämäki and Varkaus. Unfortunately first day was really bad weather, but luckily it got better by the morning, and we got also outside photos, after all! Tons of photos following! :)

Here are all the dolls attending the meet-up! Such a huge amount of all kinds of wonderful dolls. I really enjoy that people nowadays seem to enjoy the different things instead of liking just one type of doll. Such a richness it gives to the hobby, as we saw this time, too. And how the dolls had fun interaction between all the lines!

A character of his own was Fabio, less than 10€ finding from the gas station one of us had taken along. That lame but self-confident ladies´ man had such a "charm" and so impressively moving hips that he outdoes easily any Ken doll! And he made us laugh a lot during the rainy night in cabin! :D

                         It was a shame, that in such day there were heavy rain and wind! No chance for outdoor photos. 

                                                     But everyone were having fun anyways!

                   

                                     All the Azones, Mama-Chapps and my Ruruko in group pic!

                                                 Perfection comes in small package! <3 <3 <3 Tan little Latis are precious.

                                                                            Menni with a group of friends!

 Amazingly, there really is the right person to use any odd piece of clothing. This hat has never looked as good on any doll, even on the Blythe it used to belong! And so cute on her!

                                                 Ruruko found a cute friend! I really liked the expression of this Azone girl.

                                               Jude is happy next to such a pretty girl! (Who seems not to notice him at all, poor boy!)

More photos of the next day in another posting, as it was impossible to cope with all the photos in the same post. I don´t know if I´m just so badly unskilled using this blog, but everything looks different published than when I´m getting it ready - change places and rows and blah... So I always need to edit it so many times.

New adventures of mini-Daryl

I took some new pics of my mini Daryl Dixon today, too. Crossbow was quite a challenge to pose, so he is rather carrying it along, as there still wasn´t much to shoot for.

   Exploring in the wild...

                                                                                "What was that? Someone following me?"

    

 

                                                                     "Nah, nothing there."

* * *

                                                                     My version of the funny meme I saw in internet. ;)

                                                                              
                                                                                      Hmm, flowers...

                                                                           Wants to look at the flowers...

                                                                          .... checks first to make sure Carol isn´t around.



                                                                          Here is the pic I meant, but there are lots of variation of pictures with this saying. ;)

I like Carol in the series too. Have to be careful not to see a mini-Carol, haha. For those who doesn´t watch the series, Carol says this before shooting another character in head in some episode; as if something bad happens "just look at the flowers and don´t think about it". And I hope it´s not a spoiler to tell Daryl hasn´t anything to do with it. ;)

Adventures of mini Daryl Dixon

I had to buy this mini figure as I like this character so much. (Even still The Walking Dead is a bit too scary series for me to watch, I watch it after all. ;) ) I took my mini Daryl along exploring the lakeside and even still his crossbow was left home with his chopper motorcycle, he had the knife ready if needed. No walkers noticed but some giant ants though! ;)
