Unexpected admirer

In my previous post I was talking about taking some BJD photos during the weekend, but I was occupied with other things and didn't have the time for photography in the end u_u However, I did manage to snag a few photos on Monday, when I got home from school a bit earlier than expected... Thanks to the teacher that didn't arrive for our last class of the day after we'd waited for him for over 20 minutes ^^;

First I was just planning to take portraits of Carmen (Iplehouse EID Doria), but then I got the idea of a cute series of photos featuring one of Sarg's dolls, Ronya (Iplehouse EID Rebecca)! These two have quite an interesting background... Carmen is happily married with her husband Kenzo and Rony is in a relationship as well, but for some reason she can't stop thinking about Carmen and is obsessed with her, even in a bit unhealthy way ^^;; Rony tends to stalk Carmen and collect any stuff she leaves behind, like used napkins or a lipstick she may have dropped. At home she has this scary-looking little shrine for her "Carmen collection" XD All this might sound like straight from a horror story, but Rony is actually not evil or anything, just a little bit weird and hard to understand... Once you get past her creepiness, you'll find out that she's actually a very good friend :) She doesn't want anything bad to happen to Carmen, she's sort of like a guardian angel... With a twist, hahah :'D

Oh and yes, Rony is a she X''D



*thumbs up* Mission completed! ♥ (Carmen doesn't seem to appreciate though XD)

Also, here are the portrait shots that I took of Carmen!



I've been wanting to do more tattoos on Carmen... She has a full sleeve on her right arm, but I'd love her to have even more ^^;; Maybe on her stomach and/or chest? I need to come up with some ideas for pictures that would suit her character~

On another note, I've changed the colors of the blog layout (background and navigation bar) a little bit, since I was getting bored with the blue. Hope these new purple/pink-ish shades look okay on everyone's screen and are not too bright or anything :3

  1. Ihania kuvia ja kivat värit kaikissa, ja vau mikä rokkityty! ;) Tykkään tuon tyttösen meikeistä ja tatuoinneista ja eipä tuo miekkonenkaan oo yhtään hullumpi tapaus, komea kuin mikä! ♥

    1. Kiitoksia :3 Carmen on aika rokahtava tapaus, vaikka välillä tykkääkin pukeutua myös naisellisempiin vaatteisiin~ Myös tämä toinen nukke on tosiaan nainen, vaikka mieheksi helposti erehtyykin luulemaan XD

    1. I like such characters too, I think there are many weirdos in our resin crew :D Great to hear if the character stuff is interesting to read! I'm a bit of a lazy writer in terms of stories, but I do enjoy sharing some info about my (and Sarg's) charas every now and then :)

  3. MY EYESSSS!!! this layout is too bringht I'm bleeding!!! lol jk XD! I said it on twitter and it looks fine :3!!!

    I love seeing Carmen!! long time no seeing her :)!! She's as beautiful as ever and the creepy angel thing is actually cute and weird and creepy XD! but I like it!! It's not creepy in a bad way like Edward Cullen or anything :p

    I also love seeing more less femenine girls like Ronya, since they are super rare in this hobby and I will always appreciate them <3 plus that hair is full of win XD

    I think Carmen would look amazing with some tttoos around the collarbone c:

    1. Hahah you almost got me XDD Glad it looks okay! Sometimes I feel like the colors might be more desaturated on my screen than most people's...

      Carmen is one of my resin muses definitely <3 She's so photogenic too, I really enjoy taking photos of her! Hahah I'm quite sure Carmen would start running if she had Edward Cullen stalking her, Rony is much nicer XDD

      I feel like less feminine female charas have gotten more popular in the hobby lately, though they're still quite rare. I like such charas too and luckily Sarg enjoys creating them, I don't think I could come up with any myself >3< All of my girls are either cute or super feminine.

      Oh thanks for the suggestion! That'd actually be a perfect spot for a tattoo, now I just need an idea...

  4. Wow, I loved hearing about their backstory. And these two ... just gorgeous. I am loving their style and face ups. Just incredible. Rony does look a bit scary but in a good way. Really dig those spiky hands.

    I also love Carmen's tattoos. I did notice them and kept looking and thinking, wow, she has a whole ton of patience to do that full sleeve. It looks great though and i just noticed the little mushroom head.

    Have to say, always enjoy seeing your collection and Sarg's too.

    1. Oh thank you ^^ I think I can speak for Sarg as well, if I say that these two are one of the personal favorites in our doll collection.

      Hahah yeah, there's a lot going on in her tattoo sleeve X'D The mushroom head is from Super Mario and there's also a Kirby... A lot of random stuff, but they all actually have their story! Character-wise I can imagine that Carmen didn't get a full sleeve all at once, more like a few pieces every now and then.

      That's so nice of you <3

    1. Thank you :D Rony is quite a personality indeed and so is Carmen, hahah~

  6. This is so cute--Rony looks a bit scary--maybe Carmen is looking at those sharp hands and thinking "this is like being admired by Edward Scissorhands", but since I know Rony collects Ponies I have to love her a little :D

    1. Thanks~ I'm not sure if it's the sharp hands bothering Carmen or if she just finds Rony a bit creepy and even ugly...
      Hahah I had to laugh a bit at your comment about Rony collecting ponies XDD Yeah, anyone who likes ponies can't be that bad, right? ;D

  7. Yay for blog color changes! I love the purple tones~ It looks great!
    And also yay for paying attention to our BJDs more~ I adore Carmen's tattoo sleeve. I've always wanted to have a dolly with some kind of tattoos, but I've never been able to decide on the style / images, haha :D Though I've worked the tattoo thing into a story about a BJD I'm working on~

    1. Yaay ^w^ Purple is my favorite color, so I think it's quite fitting for the blog color XD
      Oh that sounds great! Hope you'll share about the story and the BJD its about at some point :3 I really like tattoos on dolls, though I agree that it can be hard to decide on what kind of images it could be. Since I do everything myself (or with help from Sarg), the limit goes where my drawing skills end X''D

  8. Interesting story, beautiful photos Safir! I understand the change of colour, I get bored looking at the same colour on my blog from time to time too!
    Hugs,

  9. Really gorgeous girls both of them! I feel a bit sad for Ronya though :P
    I love the backdrop you've used. It fits the more rough and cool look of the dolls. :3
    Also tattoos are love <3

    1. Thank you ^^ Ronya makes me a bit sad too, but she also has friends so it's not like she's forever alone!

      The backdrop is actually a big piece of fabric, a lucky find from our local fabric store :D I had to get it the moment I saw it, it's perfect~

      Oh yes tattoos! ♥
