Body blushing and collateral damage

As I haven't made much headway with other projects (e.g. photostories, writing) I decided to take Dürrenmatt with me this week and, if the time allowed, treat him to a body blushing. He's one of the few dolls that hadn't gotten one, yet, mainly because with his 46cm he is huge. I decided to also wire him to improve his posing ability which isn't that great. He looks best when leaning against a wall, looking cool and lofty. I like the Angel of Dream body he is on, because it gives him hight and I've always seen Dürrenmatt as the muscular type. But there is much that could be improved.

The weather hasn't been great lately and unfortunately the sealant decided to be uncooperative. There are a few little splotches but nothing that bothers me enough to completely re-do him. When I put him back together and wired him, I must have pulled to hard at some point of time, because the wristpart of one arm suddenly snapped clean through. Needless to say, I was annoyed. I've already contacted AoD and hope I can get a replacement.


As there are only so many poses a naked guy can pull off looking dignified (and as I wanted to try out the wiring), I give you Dürrenmatt in Auguste Rodin's Thinker pose.

Finally Some Dollie Time

I have been really busy lately with pesky real life stuff and haven't been able to play with the resin minions at all. Today however was the first rainfree and workfree day in a while and I took full advantage of it.

Rosalie lets Siltár play with her toys. Well, she has a ton of them and doesn't mind sharing.

In the end Silt even gets over his dislike for humans and (gasp!) girls. At least Rosalie seems to be okay for a girl.

I have been playing with Ava and Santana quite a lot lately but realized I never took a picture of them together. I am pleased how well they work out as best friends, even though the molds are so different from each other. Now that Ava has a new face-up, they look great together. ^^
However, you can't really tell from the picture as Mr Grumpypants stole the shot. Man, he's sulky!

Can you tell, he's wearing Dürrenmatt's wig? I still don't know what to get him. I want him to have blue hair and it has to be big so that his head doesn't look to dwarfed in comparison to the rest of the crew. Hmmm.
