Not copying my wall of text from 2018 cause it was so much and I totally tanked it lmao

The dolls in 2019

I didn’t expect this year to go as it did. Expected a few less dolls due to THE CAR but not a sharp realization that some characters are better off in writing only and such a huge declutter… there’s a more angry and rant-y version of this text in the vault but we go with nice. And the summary that 2019 in hobby terms sucked a lot of balls but at the same time, I got to experience a lot of wonderful things so idk.

At least I had money for the first time in my working life lmao

For kicks, my plan for 2018 from last year:

Plans for 2018:
Reineke – SheCow Kit
??? – Otherside Dione
??? – Magic Mirror Levon
??? – Dollsbe Event face (that old guy)

I will definitely be ordering Kit once his preorder pops up – otherwise I want more ‘unusual’ faces. Give me all the weirdo heads, you can have my Minifees lol. Like don’t get me wrong, MNFs are cool but I want something grittier, not flawless perfection but… yeah.

Then I want a 50mm prime lens (my 35mm is a bit too wide for my smol dolls and my kit lens is well, a kit lens). But other than that? I am pretty darn content*.

*see me in a few days once 2018 telling that lol no

Oh wait, more clothes. But I guess that is given with me?

I haven't been to a museum in a while (shame on me), so when I met two old doll friends today, we seized the opportunity to go to the Deutsches Museum in Munich.

Where I promptly fell in love with the naval exhibition – or rather, THE DIORAMAS.

Back in ye olde days when I was just starting with BJDs, my goal were pretty and cute dolls. Dolls that’d make you go DAWW. Dolls like

Phineas (DZ Hal) and Phyllis (DiM Laia) for example.

Then I wanted pretty but badass, like

Prudence (Fairyland MNF Marcia)

And then I had an identity crisis and had to stop doing BJD stuff for like two years and concentrate on Blythes cause nothing brought me satisfaction.
Don’t get me wrong, they were all fabulous in their own rights but at the same time… boring in their perfection.

It’s only been since 2016 that I feel that I have actually started to figure out what I want to see in my crew.

I still want perfection

Pazuzu (Iplehouse Violet)

For kicks, my plan for 2017 from last year:

Clothes. So many clothes. And props! Moar props, moar! And then more space /cries

On the doll list we have:

Tyr – Unoa Zest (Fantasy Cowboy)

Kemal – Volks YoMidi Williams

??? – Otherside Oddity

??? – Otherside Dione

??? – Magic Mirror Levon

I might let get of my Serenadedoll Ava and try to sell the Iplehouse Ryan again (if I can get a smol Williams to see how they’d compare) but that is all a bit in the air cause I fucking hate selling (tho if you want either, hit me up lol).

Subscription Boxes are what I’d term perfect for anyone who loves surprises – and boy do I love surprises! However finding the ‚right‘ subscription box has so far driven me up the walls and then some.

For those who don’t know me from LJ, I traditionally post my doll year at the end of the year and I am posting NOW because fuck it. I will NOT buy anymore dolls in 2017 to make this redundant. I will just not (it is only six more days, you can do it birb!).

For kicks, my plan for 2016 from last year:

There had been a detailed post about it here already but I modified it a bit insofar that I want to get everyone at least one formal and one fighting outfit, get more furniture and jewelry and finally work on my poor Volks Ian, provided I get her back anytime soon (got the go ahead from my co-owner to go wild and just tell her if she needs to chip in some money so yisss).

What actually got done:
