That's quite a gang! Although, the girl with the big head pretty much looks like she's in charge! XD LOL
Hope your day was better. Ugh, isn't there a landlord one could contact about the fish corpse!?

RE: Neon's A Doll A Day Challenge 2018 - Miss Edith - 05-23-2018

what a beautiful photo & the same to you

RE: Neon's A Doll A Day Challenge 2018 - neon_jellyfish - 05-24-2018

davidd - thank you very much! I actually wanted to put all my goth dolls in there, but the tent was too small...

Alliecat - the girl with the big head IS in charge, hehe. Her Insane Majesty The Lunatic Queen Isadora Malvolia The Very First is the queen of all my Pullip dolls and also queen of everything within her reach. She wasn't even my first Pullip (although I did want her as my first, but she was out of stock, so I got Alura), but she demanded that title with very resolute hearts in her eyes LOL

Miss Edith - thank you!!!

Toralei Stripe from Freak du Chic line.

Can't decide which of these two is better:

RE: Neon's A Doll A Day Challenge 2018 - davidd - 05-24-2018

What a stunning version of Toralei! I do not recall ever seeing this figure in person, and I definitely have never seen photos of her that were this impressive! Wow! Just... wow!

RE: Neon's A Doll A Day Challenge 2018 - neon_jellyfish - 05-25-2018

davidd - thank you so much! She's such a beauty, and a very pleasant model.

Day 144

[Image: b6efe592a82a9a5ebe9798db88fa9bb3.jpg]

Today is the first anniversary of my Pullip collecting! And I have so many I can't even fit them into one photo without photobox showing! 7 Pullips and one Byul.

What a gorgeous group of girls!

RE: Neon's A Doll A Day Challenge 2018 - Lejays17 - 05-25-2018

Goregous group of dolls - I said elsewhere that Florianne doesn't really fit in with the rest of the aesthetic (steampunk/gothic) :0

Happy dollyversary! grin What a pretty family.
Of the 2 photos that you're not sure which you like better, I like the first one, with her looking upward a little more.

RE: Neon's A Doll A Day Challenge 2018 - davidd - 05-25-2018

You've only been collecting Pullips for one year, and yet you have learned to photograph them so well! I still struggle with Pullip photography after... I don't know how many years.

I like seeing so many steampunk-ish Pullips in one photo.

RE: Neon's A Doll A Day Challenge 2018 - neon_jellyfish - 05-26-2018

dargosmydaddy - thank you!!!

Lejays - Hehe, Florianne is mad scientist style botanist/royal gardener, so she fits in because of her personality (she's that 'looks cute, but is totally crazy' kind of character). Her backstory isn't done yet, because I want to get the pink version and make them sisters. This is my problem - I keep coming up with backstories that require more and more dolls... LOL

Alliecat - thank you! I'm leaning towards that one, too.

davidd - thank you so much! I actually started plying with doll photography because of this challenge. Before that, I took a shot now and then, mostly outdoors ones, but I never attempted 'serious' photography. But then Lejays started posting her challenge photos over at MHA, and I couldn't get enough of them, so I decided to give it a try myself... And I'm glad I did, it's a great way to add even more joy to my doll hobby!

Day 145

[Image: 7e29df2eedb4db8e56685a8422e93b07.jpg]

I'm really tired, so just a quick snap of my Fright-Mares - Fawntine Fallowheart and Skyra Bouncegait.

And these are all my MH dolls! I'll be posting photos of dolls from 2-packs actually being together for the rest of May, and I'll do Novis after that!

RE: Neon's A Doll A Day Challenge 2018 - davidd - 05-26-2018

The Frightmares are some of the spookier MH figures. I find even these small ones a little bit oddly disturbing.

I love the way you get such a velvety black background in your light tent. What materials are you using for the floor and the back?

The lighting on the figures is always excellent, with no glare or "hot spots" and no distracting shadows. The difference in tones between Fawntine and Skyra would normally make a photograph of them together somewhat challenging. Are you using a 2-lamp or a 3-lamp set-up?

RE: Neon's A Doll A Day Challenge 2018 - neon_jellyfish - 05-27-2018

davidd - thank you very much! I'm using flocked infinity background with velcro, it was available as accessory for my photo-tent, and I have two lamps. I have very basic light diffusers, usually I'm only using one, to make light from one lamp dominant. When I need more diffusion, I use opaque white plasic bags (I have to be careful and quick with those, as the lamps get hot as hell and the bags can melt way too easily) wink I also move the lamps closer to / further away from he tent, to make the light brighter or less intensive. And I also move the doll around the tent to see what the light does in different spots. Most of my photos have light coming from both sides, darker or mysterious ones only from one side. I hardly ever use frontal lighting (I did it a few times, but I don't remember in which photos). Diffusing the light is the key to avoiding glints and sharp shadows (although I still manage to get some awful over-exposed spots now and then).

Day 146

CE Draculaura and miniature Count Orlok puppet wish you all happy Dracula Day!

RE: Neon's A Doll A Day Challenge 2018 - Miss Edith - 05-27-2018

the wee frightmares are very cute and Draculaura is gorgeous. She is the nicest Drac I have seen & your photo of course is stunning.

RE: Neon's A Doll A Day Challenge 2018 - Cornflower Blue - 05-27-2018

Those Fright-mares are rather grumpy looking for such small ones. Draculaura is gorgeous, too.
