I guessed that part!!  xp

Wouldn't it be fun to grow a banyan tree, with aerial roots? Gotta live in a pretty warm climate for that. Like... where I used to live.  slash

(The despair I feel over not having done more to try to make staying in Hawaii feasible is settling deeper in to my soul with every passing day.)

Let's Pretend it's Beach Weather


RE: davidd's A DOLL A DAY 2023 - Alliecat - 12-09-2023

I wish I could pretend it was beach weather!!  Today’s high was 2C. sad
I wonder if you could do a bonsai banyan and keep it indoors…?
You can get “cheap“ land on da Big Island… If you wanted to live on Mars the Mauna Loa lava flow you could get an acre for about $4000  LOL  And some places in Puna when I looked… If you don’t mind living on the rift!!  xp

I Got No Strings


No strings. No sticks. No leaning against the scenery. No glue on the underside of the feet. The TBLeague S41 figure balances pretty well, even on one foot.

Nice. See what you can do when your head isn't ginormous like certain other dolls LOL

10 Decemb'arrrr - A Doll A Day 2023:

A member on one of the action figure forums posted a photo or photo-story challenge last week. I was responding to the prompt with what was turning out to be an increasingly dull photo-story style reply. Then some pirates showed up and the tedium devolved in to bedlam.

Here's an excerpt featuring the pirate raid:

“This isn’t in the script”
How is it that there has never been a famous pirate character called Redsky?  xp

Seems a reasonable name, although I suppose when seeing it in writing people might pronounce it as "redskee." So then, should it be hyphenated? Or written as two words? Plus, it sounds somewhat First Nations / Native American. So things get complicated.

Which is why I went with BLOOD-SCABBARD for the cap'n!   yay

RE: davidd's A DOLL A DAY 2023 - Alliecat - 12-13-2023

I thought of "redski" too, which sounds rather Russian and not very piratey; didn't think of the native angle too.  I'd have written it as 2 words, but maybe hyphenated is the best compromise.  Well, it was a fun little joke for the character anyway.



Fixed it for you:

(Wow, I really like my "old" photoshop on the other laptop, which gives much more text options than the paint program on this "new" one.  Oh well.)

RE: davidd's A DOLL A DAY 2023 - davidd - 12-14-2023

Ah, that's hilarious! And in perfect "meme format," too!

Field Notes

I think I might be lazy and just finish off the year with a series of "a doll holding stuff."

I suppose I could do "what a doll sees through her binoculars," but I think I'll leave that to the ex-pert.

Is the crew not ex-ploring the lush tropical jungles? Hangin' out on the beach? No more projects underway?
It is a hard time of year to get motivated. But you have tropical sunshine!

Where is this "sunshine" of which you speak? The self-proclaimed "sunshine state" has been under a pall of clouds for well over a week. Rainy and windy too. When the forecast calls for rain, as it did last night, they don't mess around in Florida: "1 to 3 inches overnight." Everything is now very damp, the humidity is high, the wind is whipping around -- finally some "real wind," with gusts up to 35mph / 55kph.

The "greyness" is weighing on me, as is a temporary "financial squeeze" (should be better by mid-January), and Doll-a-Day burnout. I'm just tryin' to get thru ADAD at this point; not even pretending that I care, but not quite willing to give it up this late in the game.

The holiday season is getting underway at Club Mapa Tasi!

These pix are for a "participation challenge" on one of the action figure forums:

Come one! Come all! To the Holiday Pub Crawl!

From now until the New Year, show us YOUR dolls or action figures getting in to the holiday spirit, with or without spirits, in your miniature pubs, taverns, bars, restaurants, kitchens, living rooms... or just a single figure raising a glass -- soda, spirits, cocoa, milk, sparkling water, or other beverage of choice -- to toast the holiday season.

Seasonal decor encouraged but optional. We want to make the rounds to everybody's place this season, so don't be a Scrooge! Spice up the cider, stoke up the Yule log, and join in the festivities!
