The Last Meet...

For now, anyway.
So, I got to go to my last doll meet before I leave yesterday. It was fun- I got to give Clare her birthday present from me and Hazel, and I got to say goodbye to everyone ;_; I also got to take some good photos of Vikenti and Jin, which was nice. I also seriously want a Volks doll as well now. Christin's girl is gorgeous! *jealousface*

I didn't take as many photos as usual- mainly because I wasn't in the mood, and wanted to wander around the museum a bit. Another time, maybe I'll get some better pictures. Possibly if I'd been able to take Chu as well, I could have gotten some adorable photos of him and Jin ;__; Jin's photographs came out quite well- he's a natural in front of a camera. Vikenti, not so much. He looks distinctly under the weather (AKA hung over) and quite depressed as well. I also was the willing victim for the 'human faceplant' - photo to come as soon as I get it from Clare/Ren (whichever one of them has it). Trust me, the photo will be fairly self-explanatory as to what the Human Faceplant is, if you can't figure it out :).

CrymsenRose was also introduced to BJDs properly yesterday. She'd met Jin, but never any other doll other than that. She spent the day carrying Vikenti around (and despite complaining how sore her arms were from holding him, wouldn't put him down she liked him so much) and boy did he test her! =D Crym also got her first taste of Japanese food in Sakura- for her to say anything is really good is high praise especially from her- but she loved it 8D and we have two new chocolate mochi converts- AKA Crym and Christin! *happyface* that stuff is soooo good. So, Ginger Tree is our next stop at some point in the next week or so :3 can't wait! Anyway; Pictures!

Nothing special- I just love this picture of Jin! <3

Jin rides the dinosaur! Well, the cast of a dinosaur's skull.

And makes friends with a bunny!
Jin: IT'S SO FLUFFY 8D Don't worry, Chu-Oppa! He's no replacement for you! <3

Vikenti didn't REALLY want to be here. So he kind of just sat there and got drunk. Typical. Jin looks all awkward turtle here.

And, finally, a very pretty group shot!
L-R- Patrick, Sophie (Ren's) Jin, Vikenti (mine) Evvie (Clare) Ibi, Jenny, Lila (Christin).

Lastly- a picture of some cute, fat koi that we found in the greenhouse in Botanic Gardens that Ren took. They're so sweet! You can also find much more and better photos than mine there :)

Love and hugs,
Clair xo

Pretty, but not so witty or wise... (Image Heavy / Photostory)

So, the other day I went shopping for doll-related stuff, and came home with some Citadel Purity Seal to use for face-ups. I've heard mixed reviews about the stuff, but seriously? Works a charm for me AND it's not sticky like the Montana Gold was! As a result, Jin finally has a faceup I'm pretty darned happy with. So, in celebration, I decided to do a little photoshoot with him, even though the light, by this time was getting quite bad. See, my Mum has this little sofa thing she bought for her Boyds Bears- it's pretty perfect MSD size. So Jin posed and preened on the sofa...

With his cat plush, Choco.

Jin: ?? My kitty!

Emoface :) Isn't he a cutie? /biased.

Pose :D

Then- BAM!

A Wild Koji appears! (I don't know if Jin grabbed him, or if he felt he wasn't getting enough attention or whatever. Nonetheless, here he is, Hazel, just so's you can see he's okay :D. Ps- I will be redoing his faceup for like the ... 4th time soon? Idk lol.)

Rawwwr, snuggles <3

Forgive the bad lighting, but they're so cute!

Chu and his bunnies take over the sofa! Jin must take drastic action!


Remove one problem, keep the other! But wait, wrong problem removed!!



Jin: Sorry Oppa ;;
Chu: Cakeu? :3



Jin: Forgive me? :3
Chu: ^^ haaaai!


Jinneko and Chusagi signing off! (would you believe Chu needed a booster cushion, just to get his head to sit on Jin's shoulder?! The size difference is REALLY noticeable when they're sitting!)
Jin: Annyeong! :D
Chu: Sayonara!! Mata ne! ^_^ Watashi ni ikutsu ka no kēki o jisan suru koto o wasurenaide kudasai!

(Idk if Jin's Korean is right- I got it off Google Translate because I don't speak any Korean. He's supposed to be saying "Goodbye", and Chu's saying "Goodbye! See you next time! Don't forget to bring me some cake!" I have a fair idea what Chu's saying is right. But we shall see~ If it's wrong, I'll correct it later.)

So, um, yes, this was an entirely- BJD-related blog post, but they're cute. And I'm looking after Chu, as you can see, Hazel :3 I will give him cake! D: (before he kills me anyway).

Over and Out,
Clair :)
