davidd's A Doll A Day 2019

[davidd]

Posteampunkalyptic gorgeousness!!!

This cobbled-together outfit is beginning to look intriguing! Funny that Pullip hats fit Smart Dolls almost perfectly.

She’s off on a mission?

Addie is off somewhere on an adventure?  Or still collecting her supplies for it?

She's still gearing up for... something. I'm not quite sure what, yet. I'm usually the last to find out.

Addie looks fantastic - I really do love her goggles here

The off-brand "fits American Girl dolls" swim goggles make great "steampunk" and sci-fi apparel. One of these days I'll spruce them up to give them more of a "leather and brass" look. Maybe. It's a thought, at any rate.

!!! MASSIVE PIC SPAM TIME !!!

Word has come down from The Suits at Corporate that in order to claim successful completion of the A Doll A Day 2019 Project, at least 365 photographs are required, one for each day. Under ideal circumstances, a photo is both taken and posted each day. The rules, however, offer leniency in compliance with the "taken and posted each day" guidelines, allowing for extenuating circumstances as long as a reasonable effort is made to comply to the extent possible. However, A Doll A Day does mean a doll photo for every day of the year, meaning at least one unique photo for each day.

As it stands, due to an unforeseen (and extremely unpleasant) stretch of ill health, I missed nineteen consecutive days in mid-November. The Suits at Corporate have generously agreed to consider the circumstances of this lapse, and have assigned a staff member to help me bring my Doll A Day effort up to the minimally acceptable standard.

Maudlynne Steps Up to Help!

(Under duress, she hastens to add.)

"But don't let it happen again!" I have been informed in no uncertain terms.

Thanks to the charitable magnanimity of The Suits at Corporate and the dedication, creativity, and hard work by Miss Maudlynne ("I just point the camera and click the button," says Maudlynne), following is a series of "make-up pics" to bring appropriate closure to this A Doll A Day Project:

15 November – Monster High Dead Tired Clawdeen Wolf

(My Monster High figures were largely neglected this past year. They deserve

more attention if we tackle this nonsense again)

16 November – First Volunteer for the United States Space Force

"I've been ready and waiting for over fifty years!" sez Captain Action

17 November – Monster High Skelita Calaveras

18 November – Playing Mantis Toys DOCTOR EVIL Figure

Late-1990s re-issue figure based on the 1960s Captain Action line by IDEAL Toys

19 November – Monster High Vandala Doubloons Pirate Ghost Figure

(OMG! She's stunning! THIS is why I need to be taking more Monster High photos!)

20 November – Mattel Frank Sinatra - The Recording Years Figure

Representing the era when The Kid from Hoboken transitioned into The Chairman of the Board

21 November – Monster High Avea Trotter

One of the spookiest Monster High figures, in my opinion

22 November – Pinky Street Tenjho Tenge Aya Figure

There will be more Pinky Street photos this coming year. Plans are already in the works.

23 November – Monster High Werecat Twins: Purrsephone and Meowlody

24 November – GI Joe strikes a debonair steampunk pose

27 November – Monster High Lagoona Blue

(My First Monster High Love! )

28 November – Bratz Bratzillaz Midnight Beach Cloetta Spelletta

(As if she weren't gorgeous enough, she glows in the dark!)

29 November – Monster High Venus McFlytrap: Terror of the Sargasso Sea!

30 November – What'cha think? Could this possibly work out? Stay tuned for Tales from the Dollie Dungeon - coming soon(ish)!

1 December – They Call It a Nightmare House Now!

2 December – Final Fear! Monster High Toralei Stripe Gets Her Game On

3 December – "Your breath smells funny! Have you been drinking?"

(I don't usually "'ship" any of my figures, but... I dunno, what'cha think?)

And with that, we are back on track! YAY!

Just in time, too!
