LE Wedding Cinderella, boxed but with the front covers opened. The doll is behind a clear plastic window, that wraps around the sides.
On my second attempt to get the the Limited Edition Wedding Cinderella 17'' Doll from eBay, I finally got her! I got her with the help of a fellow collector. She is #450 of 500, and was originally sold by the Japan Disney Store. There is a Japanese sticker on the bottom of the box. She was shipped double boxed, and very well packed. She arrived in perfect condition.
She is very beautiful, and has a serene expression, rather than the grumpy pout of the LE Ballgown Cinderella doll. Her lips have a slight smile, which is part of why she has a more pleasant expression than the other doll, who shares the same face mold. She is glancing in the opposite direction of the Ballgown Cinderella, and her skin has a matte surface, rather than the shiny pearly surface of the Ballgown doll. Her pale yellow wedding gown has many differently sized and colored rhinestones enhancing the printed floral pattern. There are also several small jeweled plastic butterflies in the skirt, hidden amongst the flowers. The decorations continue throughout the back of the dress. There are also faux pearl buttons on her sleeves and on the back of her bodice. Her skirt is very full with a long train, and is in three differently colored layers. Under her skirts is a 3/4 length single layer tulle petticoat. Attached to her hair is an oversized pale yellow sheer chiffon veil. She has golden earrings and a jeweled golden tiara. Her wedding ring is a floral design with five golden beads; it is pinned to her hand. She has the old style legs, with fixed ankles. She is wearing simple ivory heels, with no decorations.
I will be posting a full set of detailed photos of this doll. She will be shown boxed, during deboxing, and fully deboxed, both by herself and with other Disney Store dolls.

The Stylidium vinosum flowers mid October.
The flowers are white with red markings, throat yellow with 3 pearlescent squares. The back of the petals is red-wine coloured. Has a long flower tube covered with glandular hairs.
The leaf rosette individual leaves have a white edge, with a small white hair at the end.
What a special minifigure this is, I have always been a fan of these 'powered up' or 'special form' type Ninjago minifigures, but this one feels so much more premium than what we have seen before. The pearlescent plastic they used on Nya's hair (water hair?) is quickly becoming one of my favorite materials used for LEGO bricks.
Our latest Barbie Birthday Wishes Doll brings a soft, sweet, and dreamy vibe with a beautiful pink strapless dress. The satin bodice blossoms into a voluminous skirt made of gathered tulle. A sheer overlay cinches at the waist with a white ribbon and then floats down to graze the floor. Her luxurious blonde hair is pulled back with a pearlescent headband, which complements her earrings. The customizable packaging offers you a place to write a personalized message to a beloved Barbie fan, making this special occasion doll a perfect gift.

Deboxing the 2015 LE Elsa Doll. First the front cardboard lid is removed, revealing a clear plastic window underneath.
The Limited Edition Elsa Doll, released in stores in North America on March 3, 2015. My doll is #2942 of 5000. She is in jeweled purple felt (made from faux wool). This is the outfit she wore as an 18 year old when saying good bye to her parents before their overseas journey. She is wearing ice blue jeweled satin gloves, which help repress her ice powers. Her hands are clasped together. Her pose and look are that of a sternly repressed nature. She is standing in front a purple window of the Castle, which is closed, as she is closed to the outside world.
She is wearing black flats with floral decoration. Her jacket is pinned to her dress, which I left alone, as it helps to keep the jacket from opening up. There was a large amount of tissue paper stuffing under her skirt. I had to remove her from the doll stand before I could remove the tissue.
She has shiny pearlescent skin, and her skin tone is between that of Coronation Elsa and Snow Queen Elsa. Her hair is slicked down in the front and is in a bun in the back. There is gold tinsel in her hair, even in her side burns.

Designer SQ Elsa and Hans deboxed, but put back on their display stand, with the covers off.
I have finally deboxed the Designer Fairytale Snow Queen Elsa and Hans Doll Set (2015). My set is #4597 of 6000. It was the only set that I didn't get at the Disney Store raffle, so I had to order her online. I show the set boxed, during deboxing and fully deboxed. After deboxing them, I place them back on their display stand, in a different pose.
I was a little surprised that Elsa has the body construction of the 2012 DS Classic Princess dolls, so has external hinged knee joints and ankle joints. It makes her legs a bit unsightly when they are exposed by opening the slit of the skirt. She has shiny pearlescent skin that is similar to the Harrods Elsa doll, but doesn't have the heavy blush. Her Snow Queen outfit also has embellishments that are more similar to that of the Harrods Elsa rather than that of the LE 2500 Snow Queen Elsa. But rather than the jeweled snowflakes of the 17'' LE Elsa she has single clear rhinestones throughout her braid, and a few on her head. The snowflake and icicle design in her cape are printed rather than embroidered (as in the 17'' LE Elsas) or glittered (as in the Classic Elsa). They are flat and smooth, and I don't think are as effective in depicting ice.
The major embellishments of Designer Hans over Classic Hans are the addition of white gloves, and a sword. However, It's disappointing that there is no scabbard for the sword - it is loosely sewn to his pants legs, which looks rather cheap.
I will show the dolls in side by side comparisons to other Elsa and Hans dolls in future postings.

This creepy haute couture lizard for Halloween is Phelsuma, a OOAK Inamorata art doll with Nnaji head sculpt and Andro bust type in Charcoal resin.
Her highly editorial make up has a pearlescent green scale pattern running from her brow to the back of her head, red and gold lips, rust coloured eyes and wild eyeshadow covering her brow with multi coloured leaf gold. The look is finished with green sequins as bindi and below her eyes.
The translucent netting dress is a hand stitched with thick scaly clusters of red and green sequins and beads to accentuate feminine form. The netting boots with Classic Stiletto heels have a line of red sequins running down the back seam.
Both doll and the fashion are available in the shop now:
I am now in the process of sampling the next stage of my suffrage piece. These are experiments in the surface decoration of quickly stitched daisy samples. I have used calico and coated in with a variety of paints: gesso, emulsion, iridescent pearlescent medium and interference paint. This stiffens them and gives them a sheen.
Doll in photo:
-Tenney Grant
I'm impressed with myself that I didn't go super gaudy for Tenney's earrings. She's a performer...it would have been the perfect excuse to make something tacky. But that's why I always wait until I have the doll/outfit in person before I design jewelry. Sometimes my initial ideas don't fit anymore once I have the outfit in hand. Tenney's "Meet" outfit (on the left) was tricky to make earrings for. She has a lot of different textures and colors going on: the denim vest, bird design on her shirt, the faux leather skirt, the brown shoes, etc. I kept going back and forth about what I wanted to do for this ensemble. But then I noticed these charming little rock beads. I had recently bought them from Walmart, when I found them in the 98 cent baggie section. I do make a habit to glance at the jewelry section at least every few weeks, because sometimes you'll find something cool. I tend to pick things that are super versatile, or incredibly unique. I thought the fact that these were rocks was fabulous, but the pink color would make them match many doll outfits. I also got the pearlescent balls in between them from Walmart too (that 98 cent baggie section is divine). However, the little orangish red stars were from a deconstructed bracelet. I found a few kids' bracelets in a discount section at a thrift store last year. The charms were perfectly sized for doll jewelry, and they were comprised of many stars (something I'm always reaching for). I originally planned to put each rock on its own little eye pin and connect them all together like a chain. But after making one earring that way, and one earring like in the photo, I preferred the latter.
Tenney's Spotlight Outfit had me so excited, before it even arrived in the mail (it came with Tenney herself). I was initially thinking of doing something in resin. But I decided to pan over all my beads first, since I had some new-ish things in my collection. When I saw these light pink, pearlescent balls, in the EXACT shade as Tenney's skirt, I knew they were a winner. I was also clever grabbing two 98 cent baggies of these in different sizes. I like to stagger the size of identical beads, to create visual interest. I didn't have a super tiny version, but that's where the faux pearls came in handy (I think these were from the Dollar Tree). But on their own, I didn't think that the plain balls/pearls were enough. I noticed Tenney has a songbird theme that is prominent in her collection. So I decided to check out my charms and see if I had any birds. Lo and behold, I sure did! These are the same as the first charms I ever bought for my dolls (all the way back in 2012). Yep, Walmart STILL sells that same pack in 2023! The birds also coordinate with the Noteworthy Studs that came with my Tenney doll (they are also little birdies). Colleen is obsessed with this pair--she said they are some of her favorites I've ever made. I was a little bummed out that I didn't get to bust out my resin, but I am super happy with how this pair turned out.
Congratulations Majesticduckieling who was the winner of my free face-up giveaway! I hope you enjoy your girl! It was fun working on her!

Edinburgh celebrates the arrival of fifteen Hybrid Enviro 400 buses and ahead of the official launch on Saturday the 10th of September Lothian put on a display of three of the new fleet especially for enthusiasts at the Eastfield terminus. What a gesture of kindness and around thirty enthusiasts turned up on this fine September evening.
Lothian's new Hybrids are painted not in the usual red and white 'classic' livery but in Radiance Red over Winter Gold i.e. the standard weinrot und weis colours are changed for a pearlescent paint version.
Environmental Manager Dr. Steve Johnson gave an enlightened talk on the new state of the art buses while Publicity Manager David Cook showed off what the vehicles are capable of. Each of them drove Enviro 202 and 203 while our friend Chris Cuthill steered in with 204 to make up the trio.
A further display for the general public is scheduled for Saturday the 10th of September between 11 and 3 at Castle Street and the vehicles come into proper service on Sunday the 11th.
Credit goes to ixlramp on CSF for the basis of the pentagons. Not happy with the landing gear here, but...meh.
Tried the "kissing" technique with a bit more success today. I took the Poppy background stamp and well inked it with Brilliance Pearlescent Sky Blue ink. I then inked up Magical Background in Mediterranean Blue and kissed the two.... Got a reasonable result ( on my second try) Made a nice and simple card allowing the panel to be the focal point of the card. Added some ribbon and gems and a small HA sentiment.

Here she is in her box! I bought her at Meijer this morning for 19.99. They only had two, and it was only the evil queen. I bought one.lol I assume they have already sold out of Ursula. I didn't see any traces of the new disney signature princesses. The evil queen is very pretty, especially for a Mattel play line disney doll. One thing I will have to say is, I think this is a play line doll, instead of a collector doll. It came with no certificate, or stand. It also has the hollow plastic legs, and very stiff joints for sturdy play. Her outfit is made out of a couple different fabrics. Her dress is the typical stiff Mattel satin. Her sleeves are a almost polyester spandexy material. Her cape is a felt like material, that they use alot with velcro. So it's not the nicest. The cowl is the same stiff satin Mattel uses. Her crown is a hard plastic painted in gold chrome. It stays on with plastic pegs, that connects to the back of her head. Her head is a pearlescent peach vinyl, with crushed black velvet lining her face. The crushed velvet goes all around her head instead of half way, so thank goodness.lol her apple is the same plastic as the crown, but painted in red and green chrome paint. It has a prong that specially fits in the queens specially molded hand. Her belt is a soft gold plastic, could be rubber. Her shoes are a hard gold plastic, and have the skull apple embellishments on the tip. All in all, I think for a Mattel doll, she's worth it! Especially if you don't have a evil queen. And I actually prefer this one over the Disney store one.

There are also faux pearl buttons on her sleeves and on the back of her bodice. Her skirt is very full with a long train, and is in three differently colored layers. Under her skirts is a 3/4 length single layer tulle petticoat. Attached to her hair is an oversized pale yellow sheer chiffon veil. She has golden earrings and a jeweled golden tiara. Her wedding ring is a floral design with five golden beads; it is pinned to her hand. She has the old style legs, with fixed ankles. She is wearing simple ivory heels, with no decorations.
I will be posting a full set of detailed photos of this doll. She will be shown boxed, during deboxing, and fully deboxed, both by herself and with other Disney Store dolls.

The Limited Edition Elsa Doll, released in stores in North America on March 3, 2015. My doll is #2942 of 5000. She is in jeweled purple felt (made from faux wool). This is the outfit she wore as an 18 year old when saying good bye to her parents before their overseas journey. She is wearing ice blue jeweled satin gloves, which help repress her ice powers. Her hands are clasped together. Her pose and look are that of a sternly repressed nature. She is standing in front a purple window of the Castle, which is closed, as she is closed to the outside world.
She is wearing black flats with floral decoration. Her jacket is pinned to her dress, which I left alone, as it helps to keep the jacket from opening up. There was a large amount of tissue paper stuffing under her skirt. I had to remove her from the doll stand before I could remove the tissue.
She has shiny pearlescent skin, and her skin tone is between that of Coronation Elsa and Snow Queen Elsa. Her hair is slicked down in the front and is in a bun in the back. There is gold tinsel in her hair, even in her side burns.

Behold the third and final doll to enchant the Barbie® Mythical Muse™ Series. Dragon Empress™ Barbie® doll is a bold, statuesque beauty with a dramatic wingspan. She wears a scale-detailed bodice in metallic mint-green and pink ombre. Beneath it is a glittered, scale-printed skirt with a slit that reveals her pearlescent, heroic heels. Her headpiece, in matching pastel ombre hues, crowns her cascading fantastical hair. A dragon-inspired cuff coils her arm, completing the look. Poised to take flight to a distant land, Dragon Empress™ Barbie® doll makes the perfect gift for collectors and fantasy lovers.
A more than worthy follow up to its pearlescent white debut release in this latest Case F recolour. The Matchbox 2019 Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S continues to impress collectors with its stealthy good looks, good features and well finished. Found recently at Tesco. Mint and boxed.
Here she is in her box! I bought her at Meijer this morning for 19.99. They only had two, and it was only the evil queen. I bought one.lol I assume they have already sold out of Ursula. I didn't see any traces of the new disney signature princesses. The evil queen is very pretty, especially for a Mattel play line disney doll. One thing I will have to say is, I think this is a play line doll, instead of a collector doll. It came with no certificate, or stand. It also has the hollow plastic legs, and very stiff joints for sturdy play. Her outfit is made out of a couple different fabrics. Her dress is the typical stiff Mattel satin. Her sleeves are a almost polyester spandexy material. Her cape is a felt like material, that they use alot with velcro. So it's not the nicest. The cowl is the same stiff satin Mattel uses. Her crown is a hard plastic painted in gold chrome. It stays on with plastic pegs, that connects to the back of her head. Her head is a pearlescent peach vinyl, with crushed black velvet lining her face. The crushed velvet goes all around her head instead of half way, so thank goodness.lol her apple is the same plastic as the crown, but painted in red and green chrome paint. It has a prong that specially fits in the queens specially molded hand. Her belt is a soft gold plastic, could be rubber. Her shoes are a hard gold plastic, and have the skull apple embellishments on the tip. All in all, I think for a Mattel doll, she's worth it! Especially if you don't have a evil queen. And I actually prefer this one over the Disney store one.
Design composed of a symbols set harmonized to each other that blend together for a very personal creation of great visual impact.
In a game of overlap born the unusual idea with an evocative aesthetic from the world of slot machines, roulettes, poker chips and dices of the American casinos green tables.
In this composition stand out, as well as the unmistakable symbol of the ace of spades, playing cards with their rich decorations printed on the back.
Harley-Davidson Softail tank airbrushed and painted with special techniques.
Full of overlapping transparent glazes, metallic and pearlescent colors that blend together with each other.
Designer SQ Elsa and Hans deboxed, standing side by side. Elsa is supported by a Kaiser stand. Hans is free standing.
I have finally deboxed the Designer Fairytale Snow Queen Elsa and Hans Doll Set (2015). My set is #4597 of 6000. It was the only set that I didn't get at the Disney Store raffle, so I had to order her online. I show the set boxed, during deboxing and fully deboxed. After deboxing them, I place them back on their display stand, in a different pose.
I was a little surprised that Elsa has the body construction of the 2012 DS Classic Princess dolls, so has external hinged knee joints and ankle joints. It makes her legs a bit unsightly when they are exposed by opening the slit of the skirt. She has shiny pearlescent skin that is similar to the Harrods Elsa doll, but doesn't have the heavy blush. Her Snow Queen outfit also has embellishments that are more similar to that of the Harrods Elsa rather than that of the LE 2500 Snow Queen Elsa. But rather than the jeweled snowflakes of the 17'' LE Elsa she has single clear rhinestones throughout her braid, and a few on her head. The snowflake and icicle design in her cape are printed rather than embroidered (as in the 17'' LE Elsas) or glittered (as in the Classic Elsa). They are flat and smooth, and I don't think are as effective in depicting ice.
The major embellishments of Designer Hans over Classic Hans are the addition of white gloves, and a sword. However, It's disappointing that there is no scabbard for the sword - it is loosely sewn to his pants legs, which looks rather cheap.
I will show the dolls in side by side comparisons to other Elsa and Hans dolls in future postings.

Pilgrims in a pine temple
Wandering into the silent and bear-black forest, the silvered sliver of a hooking moon set, we filled every silent space with amber-toothed, snarling phantoms and held them at bay with nips of cognac and the click of the shutter. Silhouettes under pearlescent starlight, the big trees are primeval minarets, spires of the oldest and grandest cathedral on Earth. We moved reverently, slowly - pilgrims in a pine temple come in the dark to play witness.
Some amongst these trees were old when men lashed Andromeda to the briny rocks and awaited the leviathan. We've filled the interceding centuries with other lambs led to slaughter, and emerging from darkness, discovered her still radiant, shackled to a constellation that is dying in a corner of the sky. Then as now, we are infants amongst giants, in wonder at skies the big trees have seen reel a million times, shades passing in the night. These are the days of miracle and wonder indeed.
We headed into the Sierras looking for a winter adventure, hoping for giant, snow-bound sentinels holding winter in great, fragrant handfuls. Instead we found beautiful, unseasonable warmth and clear night skies amongst the carpeted and ancient groves. We came for the snow and found so much more in its absence.</p

Deboxing my LE Wedding Cinderella. The cardboard backing has been removed from the inner box, and is free standing. The doll is attached to the backing by wires and plastic ties. The background image is the exterior stairs of the Castle at night. She is then removed from the backing, but is still attached to a plastic spacer. She is standing next to the backing.
On my second attempt to get the the Limited Edition Wedding Cinderella 17'' Doll from eBay, I finally got her! I got her with the help of a fellow collector. She is #450 of 500, and was originally sold by the Japan Disney Store. There is a Japanese sticker on the bottom of the box. She was shipped double boxed, and very well packed. She arrived in perfect condition.
She is very beautiful, and has a serene expression, rather than the grumpy pout of the LE Ballgown Cinderella doll. Her lips have a slight smile, which is part of why she has a more pleasant expression than the other doll, who shares the same face mold. She is glancing in the opposite direction of the Ballgown Cinderella, and her skin has a matte surface, rather than the shiny pearly surface of the Ballgown doll. Her pale yellow wedding gown has many differently sized and colored rhinestones enhancing the printed floral pattern. There are also several small jeweled plastic butterflies in the skirt, hidden amongst the flowers. The decorations continue throughout the back of the dress. There are also faux pearl buttons on her sleeves and on the back of her bodice. Her skirt is very full with a long train, and is in three differently colored layers. Under her skirts is a 3/4 length single layer tulle petticoat. Attached to her hair is an oversized pale yellow sheer chiffon veil. She has golden earrings and a jeweled golden tiara. Her wedding ring is a floral design with five golden beads; it is pinned to her hand. She has the old style legs, with fixed ankles. She is wearing simple ivory heels, with no decorations.

Doll in photo:
-Girl of the Year 2022 Corinne Tan
I admit that I often get very carried away when it comes to accessorizing my dolls. I know that my designs are tacky, unrealistic, and probably very unappealing to most other people. That being said, I can reign it in if I feel necessary. When I purchased Corinne a few days before 2022 as a preorder, I already started contemplating the earrings I'd make her. Of course, I didn't order my doll with pierced ears. Rather, this was a procedure I performed myself once she arrived in the mail. All but three of my ladies with pierced ears were done by me (Ivy and Elizabeth came with pierced ears, and Gabriela's previous owner had hers done at an American Girl Store). Anyways, once full pictures were released of Corinne, I knew I HAD to keep her jewelry delicate. This doll is a stunning work of art on her own. Unlike my plain Jane Girl of Today dolls from childhood, Corinne didn't "need" the bedazzling of handmade jewels. I didn't want to distract for her special head mold, amazing features, and teal hair. Instead, I wanted to create earrings that worked with her collection and complimented her appearance. There are occasions where I go crazy with my designs to disguise a doll's poor condition, cheap quality, or plain appearance. I also noted that Corinne's collection was done in all pastel colors...something else to take into consideration.
The earrings on the left were made to go with her "meet" outfit. The sweater is plain white, but the leggings are insanely metallic. I didn't have any beads that were a perfect match, so instead I dug around my supplies and found things that complimented these accouterments. I used pink to coordinate with the hat, teal for the boots, and picked things in a metallic or pearlescent sheen to go with the leggings. I tried to keep my bead selection small in size, so the earrings would be delicate.
The pair on the left was made to go with Corinne's Casual Outfit. I'm not sure how this is so "casual" given the very pimp like fur coat. It reminds me of Bratz clothes circa 2002. Anyways, Since the coat is so thick and has a collar, I had to consider this when designing earrings. I love the way the catalogue showed Corinne's hair styled with this get up--in a high ponytail with the headband on. Since her ears would be fully visible, and the coat would be super puffy, I kept these earrings delicate as well. The star beads were actually pilfered from a children's bracelet I bought at a consignment store. Whenever I think of it, I always inspect the jewelry selection at secondhand places. The bracelets had super tiny stars, which were perfectly sized for dolls (and they were only 25 cents each...so I bought a few in different colors and with varying beads). I could have gone for purple pom poms to match the fur on the jacket. But I thought that would be way too gaudy (even for me). Plus, I don't have pom poms in pastel colors right now. Instead, I mainly was inspired by the geometric print on her leggings. That's why I went with stars, since they are shapes. I didn't have any small triangle beads to use instead. I also incorporated some of the same teal metallic beads that I used for her "meet" pair. For my Girl of the Years and historical characters with pierced ears, I try to make their earrings cohesive as a set (much like how their collections are designed). I also added little crystals (I think some of these were also from kids' bracelets), to add some color to the earrings. I appreciate that the stars themselves are translucent, since they give the earrings a more airy, light feel (less overwhelming, since this outfit is already such a statement).

She is wearing black flats with floral decoration. Her jacket is pinned to her dress, which I left alone, as it helps to keep the jacket from opening up. There was a large amount of tissue paper stuffing under her skirt. I had to remove her from the doll stand before I could remove the tissue.
She has shiny pearlescent skin, and her skin tone is between that of Coronation Elsa and Snow Queen Elsa. In bright lighting, her skin is iridescent with a a purple sheen. Her hair is slicked down in the front and is in a bun in the back. There is gold tinsel in her hair, even in her side burns.

Poem.
Cruises from here.
Views to the Nevis Range
twenty miles distant.
Spring daffodils speckle the banks.
Mountain slopes.
A pearlescent string of sumptuous silver lochs
mark Harry Potter’s route to the fictional Hogwart’s School.
Loch Shiel stands in as the secret “Black Lake.”
Pine forests.
Glenfinnan Monument marks the spot where
the Jacobite Standard was raised in 1745.
Holiday lodges.
Quaint railway halt.
Glens to remote and wild Knoydart.
Sweeping, meandering loch
with the Glenfinnan peaks to the north
and flat, boggy Claish Moss, at its southern end, near Moidart.
On the glorious “Road to the Isles.”
So much lavish and varied scenery to savour.
We are blessed indeed!
I love it when inspiration comes from many places! A Blog Named Hero has a challenge going on now to make your own embellishment, so I had started to make this flower a few days ago... no idea what I was going to do with it.
THEN Barb and Marcy came up with this fun challenge and I knew! The problem was how do I represent the rest of their inspiration photo?
Apparently, you have to play in a Hero Arts Scramble! Linda hosted this (www.flickr.com/groups/heroarts/discuss/72157632958889306/ ) fun challenge yesterday and asked us to use embossing - heat or dry - and she had a beautiful card for which she had embossed a sentiment on vellum.
Here you see the results:
Hero Arts Stamps: Blossom Art and It's Your Day
Embossing Folder: Cuttlebug Spots and Dots, colored in with Memento and Tombow markers then run through CB onto Neenah Solar White.
The flower was stamped twice and heat embossed in white onto a piece of glossy CS which already had been tinted with Eggplant and Purple Twilight alcohol inks. After fussy cutting both, I inked the backs with Hero Arts Grape Juice mid tone ink, mounted one over the other with a double layer of foam adhesive and curled the petals. (I colored the edges of the foam purple as well.) The center was created by layering two snowflakes made with a Martha Stewart punch out of pearlescent white CS.
The HA sentiment white embossed on green vellum is meant to reflect the ribbon from the inspiration photo. do the little dots in the font remind you of stitching too?

Design composed of a symbols set harmonized to each other that blend together for a very personal creation of great visual impact.
In a game of overlap born the unusual idea with an evocative aesthetic from the world of slot machines, roulettes, poker chips and dices of the American casinos green tables.
In this composition stand out, as well as the unmistakable symbol of the ace of spades, playing cards with their rich decorations printed on the back.
Harley-Davidson Softail tank airbrushed and painted with special techniques.
Full of overlapping transparent glazes, metallic and pearlescent colors that blend together with each other.
Deboxing the Designer SQ Elsa and Hans Doll Set. Elsa has been deboxed. She is posed standing, supported by a Kaiser stand. Her cape is in a normal partially opened position, and her right leg is showing through the slit in the skirt. Her hair braid is draped over her left shoulder.
I have finally deboxed the Designer Fairytale Snow Queen Elsa and Hans Doll Set (2015). My set is #4597 of 6000. It was the only set that I didn't get at the Disney Store raffle, so I had to order her online. I show the set boxed, during deboxing and fully deboxed. After deboxing them, I place them back on their display stand, in a different pose.
I was a little surprised that Elsa has the body construction of the 2012 DS Classic Princess dolls, so has external hinged knee joints and ankle joints. It makes her legs a bit unsightly when they are exposed by opening the slit of the skirt. She has shiny pearlescent skin that is similar to the Harrods Elsa doll, but doesn't have the heavy blush. Her Snow Queen outfit also has embellishments that are more similar to that of the Harrods Elsa rather than that of the LE 2500 Snow Queen Elsa. But rather than the jeweled snowflakes of the 17'' LE Elsa she has single clear rhinestones throughout her braid, and a few on her head. The snowflake and icicle design in her cape are printed rather than embroidered (as in the 17'' LE Elsas) or glittered (as in the Classic Elsa). They are flat and smooth, and I don't think are as effective in depicting ice.
The major embellishments of Designer Hans over Classic Hans are the addition of white gloves, and a sword. However, It's disappointing that there is no scabbard for the sword - it is loosely sewn to his pants legs, which looks rather cheap.
I will show the dolls in side by side comparisons to other Elsa and Hans dolls in future postings.
