DesertPhantom51 Posted April 22 April, I hardly knew ye. I need to stop saying I'll be getting back on track, because every time I do, I'm way behind and this time a hard drive lost me all my photos! That was fun! 💀 So while I was trying to decide what to do, my wife suggested I just retake the photos and do Coachella as that was happening for the last two weeks. So here we go, April is saved by Coachella! I shall not jinx myself by saying when May's photos will be here, but I hope to see you all again sooner rather than later in the month! Thanks for stopping by! Hope your Spring is in full swing! 11 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rajke Posted May 5 Sorry to hear that you lost your photos. I think your wife has a good point when she said to continue. You are a good photographer and I know this is a drawback that you can overcome. 2 Greetz, Rajke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GirlWiththeDragoonTattoo Posted May 5 Ah man, that sucks. But I'm glad the ladies had fun at Coachella 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeyondTime Posted May 5 Samus looks like she was born to go to Coachella. 2 The difference between Dollfie Dreams and Heroin? Heroin is illegal, Dollfie Dreams probably should be. “Empty wallets, full hearts.” That’s probably an apt description for the effects of DD addiction Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DesertPhantom51 Posted August 13 Well... it's been a while. I'll spare you the details, but I'm glad to finally have some pictures to post again. It's been a rough few months, and I just found the spark to start again! Even if it is just the one girl for now. August is here, summer roars and it's a wonderful time for gardens and a lovely dress. Emma was going to have a garden shoot for May, since that was her arrival month, so I wanted to start back with her and give her her spotlight. A good stretch to get the stiffness out, it's been a few months after all. So Emma was my 'surprise' doll. I never intended to get a second doll, and just have Samus alone. But then one day, Samus got a stain, and I was devastated! I found the info on here about stain treating, and started the process, but bought a new set of arms, just in case. Low and behold the treatment worked great, and I had these arms and Samus's original M bust laying around. I mean, that's a good chunk of the price of a doll right there... Etsy must have heard my thoughts because the next thing I know I'm getting doll heads recommended to me, and I saw one and that was that. She was on the way and all the pieces came together just in time for May Day and her first picture! She's changed a lot in five years! But then, we all have. I might have one more for this month, Lydia has had this darling short wig that I only have two photos of, and she's back to long hair next month, so she may have a quick beach set later. But if not, I'll have photos for next month, and I'll try to engage more on here again. Oh, and a sales thread is coming soon, wigs and clothes, keep an eye out! Have a safe month everyone, and thanks for stopping back by again! 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DesertPhantom51 Posted September 25 September! I wanted to do something with sunflowers for a while, and since they're still in full bloom here, and I never know what else to do with September, I thought it'd be fun! So I dressed up Lydia for a little Sunflower stroll. Plus she has her new long hair for the Fall and Winter seasons so there's another reason to show her off this month! Went with some Wednesday pigtails this year, they're a lot of fun! Although she's very opposite of the spooky girl with the same hair. It's also her gotcha month, this marks three years that I've had her as part of my doll family now, she's been a lot of fun to have around! With the different hair styles and her naturally glam presense, it's always fun to pose her for a month or random photo! That's all for this month, October is just around the corner but photos will be later in the month. Thanks as always for stopping by, hope you all have a safe month! 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DesertPhantom51 Posted October 20 (edited) Hello October, and Halloween! I'm sure it's no secret by now that Halloween and Christmas are my favorite occasions to take photos of my dolls. This year is a bit more of a mishmash of costumes without a uniting theme through, although they all feature wheat? Anyway, they're all ideas and costumes/situations I wanted to do or revisit, and I hope you like them! First is Samus wearing the same costume that started this thread, although she did get upgraded for her 7th birthday coming up and she's now on a DD 2.0 body and she fills it out nicely (she's also taller than the other girls now, which is something I love) also holding an unpainted version of her other gift this year, it's her Zero Suit blaster from the games, can't wait to get it painted, but wanted it in anyway! Merida skipped the costumes this year, saying she was planning on going ghost hunting in a wheat field instead. always make sure you have enough lantern fuel when you're out, you never know what the light is keeping back... Maybe I can get her in a costume next year.... Lydia revisits her witch costume as a briar witch with lit branches. Katie is bringing her horns back as a devil this year as she floats along I couldn't help myself, here's a Lum pose... and last, but never least, Emma showing a rare sultry side as a vampire this year. You don't want to know how much of a pain in the ass this dress was, but it looks so lovely on her. A toast to Halloween! That's all for this month, I hope you like the photos, thanks for coming by as always! November will be a one or two girl month, hopefully near the beginning of the month as I claw my way back to the first. I hope you all have a safe and wonderful month and hope you come by again next month! Edited October 20 by DesertPhantom51 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought for sure when I bought that outfit it was going to wind up on Lydia, funny how they work out, but I agree, it worked out really well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
