That would be perfect! I need to figure out a way to do that!

Well, how about using a "glowy rod thingy" as a base? (*hint-hint*, quoting from Aijo's thread):

That might work!
Some comic book type panels for Monday, 9 November:

I'd watch this if it was a TV show.
RE: davidd's A Doll A Day Challenge 2020 - neon_jellyfish - 11-10-2020
I need to know what happens next, or I won't be able to sleep!
RE: davidd's A Doll A Day Challenge 2020 - davidd - 11-11-2020
Yet again I had my supplies out and ready to catch up on Doodle Tuesday.
Once again I was thwarted by the treachery of time.
Burned out light bulb. Stopped-up toilet. Frozen water supply line. Loose dryer vent. General chaos.
Similar issues thwarted a short photo-story segment I was working on. I ended up with one photo. Here it is:

10 November – Military Type People
Figures from Hasbro, 21st Century, and TBLeague. This was the only pic out of several that even close to turned out. This one is a bit soft in focus and has some other minor issues. All the rest were blurry, or had flyaway hair issues, or had eyeline alignment issues, or were just generally crummy-looking.
Maybe I can enlist the assistance of these little military people to assist me in my thus-far losing battles against the Forces of Entropy. I know that, ultimately, Entropy will always win, but currently I feel as though I am being overwhelmed. If only I could keep Entropy at bay for a little while.

Hope you got the maintenance issues solved. Dontcha hate it when life interferes with hobby time.
Your 'military type people' look like they're about to announce something important...
Great lighting, composition, etc in the comic panels! Is this part of a longer story somewhere?

There are now several "interactive photo-story topics" emerging on the Action Man Mobile Ops forum, in which any member is welcome and encouraged to respond to previous posts in photo-story format.
It reminds me of the entertaining Ever-Evolving Photo-Story Game topic on the old Pinky-Street forum.

It’s an intriguing intro shot, though.
RE: davidd's A Doll A Day Challenge 2020 - neon_jellyfish - 11-11-2020
Oh dear, everybody seems to be having the time of their lives... I hope you survived ecevrything without significant loss of blood or limbs. Hopefully, your brave military people can help you. Hang in there!
If you don't want to drop the doodle challenge (but honestly, dropping it would be perfectly fine!), I suggest that instead of doing xy doodles for the MH frame (I'm just using it out of convenience), pick larger format (like letter / A4), divide it into small parts and make it a jigsaw puzzle doodle - one picture, but the individual parts will serve as doodles. Nobody said they all need to be the same size

That's a pretty clever idea for catching up on Doodle Tuesdays!
I go back and forth between just giving up on everything or not letting the stupidity, the politics, the virus, and everything else win.
But right now, stupidity, politics, and the virus are winning. Or, more specifically, the stupidity of half the public plus the politicians using the virus to their own ends are winning, and it's all quite discouraging.
Don't know how Doodle Tuesday or ADAD can help.
Whatever. I'm rambling nonsense.

11 November – Army Guy Chair Project
I'm trying to construct a desk for an action figure. Somehow that led to also trying to construct a chair for an action figure.
I'm out of hot melt glue, so it's taking longer than I would have liked. Doesn't matter. Slow, fast, it's gonna look terrible if it ever gets finished.
Too big to be a desk chair. Too small to be a sofa. Not big enough for two figures. Too big for one figure. Whatever.
RE: davidd's A Doll A Day Challenge 2020 - Elfy - 11-12-2020
Your soldier there looks like he’s done it tough.
RE: davidd's A Doll A Day Challenge 2020 - neon_jellyfish - 11-12-2020
I'm actually fond of chairs too big for one and too small for two, they're like nests for me, kitty, a doll and a book. Not sure if action figures would appreciate that...
RE: davidd's A Doll A Day Challenge 2020 - werepuppy - 11-12-2020
Looks like a good chair.
