Neon’s A Doll A Day… Again (2020)

[Elfy]

Spactra is suitably spooky.

Thank you, everyone!!!

The Azones are so cute - especially the pirate ones!  The others are a little too pastel for me.  Which is very contradictory when I look at the dolls scattered around the place.

I don’t have any Barbies from when I was a kid - oldest of the family so they would have been passed down - but I do have my teddy.
She looks really neat with her bright hair & hula skirt.  Which other Barbies do you still have?

Barbies that survived my childhood are this Teresa, then Cinderella Barbie from 1992 and Disney The Hunchback of Notre Dame Esmeralda from 1995 (in her signature dress). I also had Glitter Hair Barbie (the red hair version - she wasn't a Teresa, it was Barbie sculpt, but had red hair) from 1993, My First Barbie - A Glittering Ballerina from 1991 - the blue dress variant and Magical Hair Mermaid Barbie with purple hair from 1993. The remaining two were typical blonde Barbies and I have no idea which releases they were. I miss my old Barbies, especially my Glitter Hair redhead, and now and then, I'm tempted to get them, but other dolls always get the priority.


Day 47

Random assortment of Novis.



And this is what the cover of their debut album is going to look like. They just need to write some songs...

That filter is amazing and it would make for a very cool album cover

[dargosmydaddy]

All the Novis are adorable, but the one with the swirly/stripy face (and legs) is particularly awesome!

The "black light effect" filtered version looks rad! Definitely album cover material!

(Too bad "albums" are such a dinosaur relic of a concept, even on CD, these days.)

[Alliecat]

Yeah, the stripey one is amazing! I've seen a few of them now thanks to forum members, but I'm pretty sure I've never seen this one.
Maybe some people whose brains are in a more creative gear than mine is today could help them come up with some song titles. Or a band name.

I can certainly see album cover in the filtered one, it looks amazing.

Actually, even the unfiltered one looks like an album cover.

[Elfy]

Great album cover and Bill and Ted proved you don’t have to be able to sing or play.

Thank you!!!

Thank you! She's Mimi Merize, and her theme is hypnosis (hence the swirls).

Thank you!

(When I was a kid I liked going through my parents' collection and listen to CDs with pretty album covers. I discovered a lot of neat music!)

Yeah, the stripey one is amazing!  I've seen a few of them now thanks to forum members, but I'm pretty sure I've never seen this one.

I've featured Mimi in previous challenges, but only a few times. Novis aren't exactly poseable, so I don't take many photos of them.
It's not like they're serious about being a band, it's more of that childish "we're so cool, we would make an awesome band" way of thinking

I can certainly see album cover in the filtered one, it looks amazing.

Actually, even the unfiltered one looks like an album cover.

Thank you very much!

True


Day 48

Since we're riding the vintage nostalgia wave, I decided to show you some of oldest members of my crew. Hula Hair Teresa is one of my oldest dolls, but I have toys that are older than her (or the other two Barbies). I've had this panda family and the pony baby (and a PollyPocket, but I think that one's at my parents' place) since I was three, so they've been with me for 28 years.  
Monty is there for doll representation and as a composition aid.



And since I've had them for so long, I just had to put my favorite vintage filter on the photo.

[werepuppy]

Aww, that is so adorable. Though Monty does look a bit put out to be with so much cute instead of his usual horror fare...

[davidd]

Composition aid... or photo bomb!

Vintage filter... because that's what photos from when you were a kid look like now? 

[dargosmydaddy]

Awww! I had some Ponies when I was little (and I doubt they look in nearly as good shape now!), but the pandas are new to me... so cute!

[Alliecat]

They’re cute ...is Monty going to take up panda herding?

[Elfy]

Such a cute grouping.

[neon_jellyfish]

Many thanks, everyone!


Day 49

ADAW #7
We've been having super windy weather for over a week now, and I'm constantly on the verge of fainting, so today's post sucks. I wasn't able to do a poster from my list again, I just did a random quickie with very rough shading. Also, I couldn't get the white ballance right for the life of me, so it's all too blue, Amanita's hair and the flower petals are more purplish IRL.
