The transition is magnificent... from lustrous pearly white, 4 petaled flowers, with pink pearlescent centers, purple hooked stamens, dots of golden pollen, and more pearly buds, pink at the base, waiting to bloom.
Petals falling and highlighting rosy axis support stems and sepal cups from which magenta seeds will form.
Magenta and purple berry like seeds dramatizing the brilliant rose tones of the stems and deeper tones.
Rose Grape Medinilla... a tropical beauty! Its life cycle... magnificent!

A slightly-metallic coating, like Metallic Silver or Metallic Gold. May be two different coatings. Used in 2006 for Clikits set 7545.
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:
A car I'd always wanted. Aways felt a bit too fragile unfortunately with that Kugelfischer injection engine. Felt a million dollars in it though. This had been painted in Peugeot pearlescent Sorrento Green, which everyone thought looked wonderful but I reckoned didn't suit the car. It also sported incorrect TRX steel wheels and the later V6 shape grille, for those of you keen Peugeot spotters out there. Sold to a Norwegian chappie around 2000, wonder if he's still got it?
Cadillac Series 62 Coupe (7th Gen) (1961-62) Engine 429cu in (6391cc) V8 OHV

The 7th generation Cadillac 62 was restyled and re-engineered under Bill Mitchell for the 1961 model year. The new grille slanted back towards both the bumper and the hood lip, along the horizontal plan, and sat between dual headlamps. New forward slanting front pillars with non-wraparound windshield glass were seen. Standard equipment power brakes, power steering, automatic transmission, dual back up lights, windshield washer, dual speed wipers, wheel discs, plain fender skirts, outside rearview mirror, vanity mirror and oil filter. Rubberized front and rear coil springs replaced the trouble prone air suspension system. Four-barrel induction systems were now the sole power choice and dual exhaust were no longer available. A mild face lift characterized Cadillac styling trends for 1962. A flatter grille with a thicker horizontal center bar and more delicate cross-hatched insert appeared. Ribbed chrome trim panel, seen ahead of the front wheel housings in 1961, were now replaced with standard cornering lamps and front fender model and series identification badges were eliminated.
This car was the subject of an episode of the Discovery Channel, 'Wheeler Dealers, starring Edd China and Mike Brewer where repairable classics are are repaired and restored to a budget, and then sold on. This Cadillac was the subject of an extensive rebuild and respray in pearlescent green and white paintwork with hand painted pin-striping and gold leaf artwork. It sits on Ridetech air suspension and new whitewall tyres. The interior has also been restored with fresh trim in white with green alcantara headlining.
This car was offered at the H + H Brooklands Auction 8th March 2014 selling for a hammer price of £ 13664

A monochrome view of West Wittering Beach at low tide reveals a mesmerizing interplay of textures and patterns, sculpted by the natural rhythm of the sea. Rippling ridges spread across the sand like delicate lines in an ancient etching, each curve gracefully tracing the ebb and flow of receding waves. These patterns vary in depth and sharpness, creating a gradient from stark, shadowed troughs to soft, silken crests. Tiny rivulets weave between the ridges, forming intricate networks that glisten faintly, catching subtle glimmers from the dim, diffused light overhead. The horizon fades into mist, merging sky and beach into a seamless palette of greys. Patches of damp sand appear almost metallic, reflecting darker shades in deeper channels, while lighter areas evoke a pearlescent glow, as if the beach itself breathes with the slow, timeless pulse of the tides. Scattered shells and pebbles punctuate the scene, casting small shadows and adding delicate contrasts to the serene monochrome expanse. The scene is both calming and infinite, capturing the silent, rhythmic dance of earth and sea in the simplest and most profound detail.

The Shadownlands Collection is based on science fiction stories by Dyan Bender.
The second character in the collection is Fyre, whose secret name is Ardala. She is the adopted daughter of a wealthy Healer and direct descendant of the last ruler of what is often called the Great City.
She is a Highborn, a race the developed from Human close intermarriage of the ruling families. Thru centuries of narrowed bloodlines a race of physically beautiful and mentally gifted people consolidated power. Marked physically by extremely pale pearlescent skin and blazing red hair with oddly metallic quality. Highborn are marked by a drive to acquire power and are gifted with something other races call Charisma.
Ardala is young, she has gained her full height but is still not filled out completely. She has been able to pass as a boy for years. Her eyes are blue, the warm blue of shallow seas, and bright with curiosity and good humor. Although wealthy now for many years she and her mother moved often and she has learned to easily adapt to new locations...she enjoys learning about new people, customs and cultures. She is gentle, and her gentle nature shows in her expression. She completely lacks the imperious and commanding nature that typically marks Highborn, but she is just starting to understand that she has personal power, she is starting to learn that she can command the attention of others.
She wears her silk finery, wide pants of teal silk that were left a bit short in the ankles in her last growth spurt; silk slippers encrusted with brass sequins; a silk chiffon vest draping over her young shoulders with fine brass chains; a bra heavily embellished with tiger eye gems, brass and gold, forming hawk motives that symbolize and foreshadow her soaring potential. Her hips, neck and intricately braided hair are adorned with gold chains.
The doll is a Andro Inamorata Nnaji in Milk skintone.
This is a commissioned bespoken OOAK doll and not for sale.
Although the jury is still out with collectors as to whether this is a fair representation of the upcoming Tesla Model X I have to admit I really like it regardless. The wheels take a bit of getting used to and that rear spoiler appears to be pure Hot Wheels but overall its a crisply cast diecast with pleasing levels of detailing especially to the front lights and grille area and of course this shimmering pearlescent white finish is a great debut colour. One of quite a few i've managed to find in various ASDA stores recently. Mint and boxed.

Deboxing the Designer SQ Elsa and Hans Doll Set. Hans has been deboxed, leaving Elsa still attached to the display case. First we remove the large plastic support piece behind her. Then we untack her outfit from the base of the display stand. We open her cape and skirt to show her legs tied to the metal post of the built in doll stand. Now she is removed from the stand, and placed lying down to complete the deboxing. The back of her dress is opened up, and we see that she doesn't have any printed stampings on her back.
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.

So so excited and lucky to find this incredibly beautiful Sealy Japan lusterware teacup! Found at an antique shop for $5!!! This is my dream cup!
Whew! It has been a while since I've been able to upload anything.
This is a painting I did for my current show at Evolve Studios.
It is actually pearlescent white on white. Hard to photograph though so it comes out looking like a grey background but it really is white.
This painting was supposed to go in the private treatment room but one of the practitioners there liked it so much she put it in her room!
Found this spider in my garden today. Silvery and pearlescent ... I have never seen one like it before. Strangely one ofthe stories in the news today was about the discovery of 13 new spider species in Australia.

Do not give perfect makeup on your wedding day although the humidity and weather conditions do not put it easy. Winter Wedding Makeup Tips Show off a radiant face it is easier than you think if you follow a few tips with which you will achieve a glowing, comfortable and durable makeup.
A makeup natural, simple and with whom you feel yourself is essential to the day of your wedding. Brides usually always go for a look discreet that enhances the beauty natural each, no eccentricities for one of the happiest days of your life. If your wedding takes place in winter, a season in which pastel tones and less living are the protagonists, we want to offer a few tips to shine with light. Do not give up just perfect because the weather is not with you.
Eyes and lips:
Winter is the season when there is more moisture in the atmosphere. For the lipstick not dry, cracked skin and eyeshadows are not the quarter, we recommend lip long lasting and apply a pre-base or translucent powder on the eyelid before putting the shade. They are also good ideas, eye shadows waterproof, remain intact until you decide desmaquillarte. Neither tears nor inclement weather gets you to stop look impeccable. As for the colors used, the coldest tones, such as pearlescent and metallic, will be ideal in this season. Pink and violet are the most recommended for brown eyes, blue, gray and brown, for people with light eyes. The key to perfect lips is on hydration. The best advice we can give is to apply a generous layer of lip balm night before the wedding: the lips perfect are insured. On the big day, nothing better than a lipstick moisturizing effect on roses, raspberry or, why not, clear tones. We recommend without the gloss, since only hard and not too pleasant for the makeout session, do not you think Winter Wedding Makeup Tips?
Makeup base:
One of the most important parts when makeup is the face. Use a good base makeup is essential and if it is intended that its effect lasts many hours. To the base is well fixed to the skin, it must be perfectly clean and hydrated and, if possible, have made an exfoliation, the previous days, to remove dead skin and eliminate dry areas. A base was mattifying and long - the term is perfect for the big day. Despite the nerves, the rush, and sweating by changes in temperature between indoors and room temperature, the skin remains intact, as newly made up. Always use a base the same color as your skin, so makeup will be more discreet, and the base will be like your second skin. The more naturally more I'll stand your beauty Winter Wedding Makeup Tips.
Haves:
Do not forget to include in your toiletry bag beauty an illuminating a concealer and Introjects bar to reduce the imperfections caused by the cold in the nose and chin. No prescinds not the foundation, eye shadow and lipstick you used. You probably want to touch up throughout the day and especially before photographs. We have to be cautious! It's your big day and wants to be perfect.
Tips:
Although darker shades predominate and the most intense makeups in winter, do not forget the wedding makeup should always be light and natural.

Apply concealer or highlighter on eyes, cheeks, chin and forehead, always with small touches, give more light to your face. Try it! Do not employ powders sun, reserve for the return of the honeymoon, which will undoubtedly come with some color.

Over on the Penny Black Blog the challenge for Octoberfest is to make a Holiday card using a stamp from the Christmas 2010 Catalog. Luckily this stamp I have is from it, I used a HA music background stamp and some pp from a pack from 2 years ago. The Little mice have been coloured with Pearlescent paints, matted onto gold paper and then added to the card. The sentiment has been embossed in a copper colour.

"Celebration" is the theme this week for Macro Mondays. To celebrate I have selected a bevy of colorful and shiny ribbons to illustrate the theme because they are so festive looking.
Deboxing the 2015 LE Elsa Doll. First the front cardboard lid is removed, revealing a clear plastic window underneath. Then the plastic window and rear cardboard lid are removed, leaving the doll attached to a free standing cardboard backing. The Certificate of Authenticity is removed from below the backing.
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.

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
Nissan today unveiled the Z Proto, signaling the company's intent to launch a new generation of the legendary Z sports car. Shown at a virtual event beamed around the world from the Nissan Pavilion in Yokohama, the prototype car features a new design inside and out, as well as a V-6 twin turbocharged engine with a manual transmission.
First hinted at in a video named "Nissan A-Z" in May, the Nissan Z Proto pays full respect to 50 years of Z heritage. At the same time, it's a thoroughly modern sports car.
Penned and developed by the design team in Japan, the Z Proto boasts a fresh, attractive exterior design with a silhouette that communicates respect for the original model. It sports a bright yellow pearlescent paint – a tribute to a popular paint scheme on both the first generation Z (S30) and the 300ZX (Z32) – and a black roof.
The original Z was built to bring the joy and excitement of sports car ownership to as many people as possible.
"The Z has always been a strong dynamic performer, making it easy for customers to enjoy its capabilities and feel as connected as possible to the car," said Hiroshi Tamura, chief product specialist of the Z Proto. "This has been true through all its generations, and this is what drives our passion to innovate and challenge the norm."
Each new generation had a more powerful engine, although the Z is about more than power increases.
"Z is a balance of power and agility," Tamura continued. "It is a vehicle that creates a connection with the driver not just on the physical level, but emotionally, and responds to the driver's impulses."
Make no mistake though, the Z Proto packs a powerful punch. Under the elongated hood is an enhanced V-6 twin-turbocharged engine mated to a six-speed manual gearbox. As a prototype, work is now underway on synchronizing the power with the grace and control that has defined the Z for the past 50 years.

Registration Number 3 MLL
MAZDA SET

The third generation MX5 was launched in May 2005, for the 2006 model year.

The MX5 received a mid-life facelift in 2008, launched at the Paris Motorshow and London Science Museum. Major changes concern the restyled front which now incorporates elements from Mazda’s newer models like the larger grille and new head and fog lights. Further restyled elements are the side skirts, rear bumper and the tail lights. The soft-top Touring and Grand Touring models feature a mesh grille bordered by a chrome frame. The hardtop Roadster Coupe now features a mesh grille bordered by a chrome frame and chrome elements inside the headlamps and outer door handles.
The MX5 20th Anniversary Edition (2010) was launched at the 2010 Geneva Motorshow, as a limited edition of 2000 (around 600 were designated for the UK) UK models were based on the soft top 1.8SE . It included 10-spoke 17-inch alloy wheels with a unique silver finish, front fog lights, chrome trims (around the grille, headlamps and fog lights), body-coloured roll bars and a supporting strut brace. Inside, the stainless steel scuff plate features a unique '20th Anniversary' logo and limited edition number, premium '20th Anniversary' branded floor mats, a body-colored front dashboard, aluminium pedal set, and manual air-conditioning, leather steering wheel, gear knob and hand-brake; MP3-compatible Radio/CD audio system with six speakers, steering wheel controls and an auxiliary (AUX) input jack for MP3 and iPod connection.

For my wife's Batgirl costume. The boot on the right was built red and black. The pattern looked good enough that we wanted Batgirl's boots to have a matching patch of purple. I made a template from the red boots and used an airbrush to put a pearlescent metallic purple finish on top of the black patent leather.
No, it doesn't match any canonical Batgirl costumes, but we're not cosplay purists, more impressionists than documentarians.
For flexible paint, I use Clear Plasti-Dip, which is essentially a synthetic rubber paint, thinned 60/40 with xylene and sprayed with an airbrush. In this case, pigmented with pearlescent purple automotive pigment.

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 was the most interesting car for me in the auction yesterday. I think it had done about 90k miles, and it did sell in last nights auction. £575 I think the bid was. It seemed like a nice car, I drove it through one of last week's sales, and it seemed to drive OK. Only fault I saw with it was the air bag light was on (MOT failure now). I think the colour is called 'Trophy Yellow' and has a slight pearlescent finish to it. I like it.
There's also a Y-reg Freelander with the same engine in the auction as well. I would only consider owning either of these cars if they had the 2.5 V6 engine (and even then, I'd still need to be pretty desperate to go for the Freelander). These are nice enough cars though.

These Mehndi hands are foam mounted onto colourful, pearlescent backgrounds - created by myself using inks and water. I've added a gorgeous trim for finishing which gives it that Bollywood glamour.
Another picture of my OOAK Ariel in her pink dress..
I got this used Ariel from the 1997 Mattel Wedding Giftset.
I rebodied her onto a 1999 Tarzan Jane doll with a matching skintone, in order for the dress to fit and for the bent arm.
I partially rerooted her hair as it was cut and in bad shape and I styled it adding pearls on the sides.
The dress is an old Disney store dress.
I modified it, by adding ribbons on her neckline and waistline and I also changed the skirt. I got an Ocean Bride Ariel skirt, removed the net, pleated it in the middle and sewed it under the pink skirt.
I added matching white pearlescent Barbie 90's pumps and the fork as last touch, from an early 2000's Barbie accessory set.
I worked hard on her and I'm very satisfied with the result.
As Britney Spears once said – “Oops!...I Did It Again”, LOL... Well, here is another completed custom painted guitar project I’ve finished. This time I decided to go with a Flame theme in purple hues, actually those colors are a Pearlescent Lavender to Plum burst, with some vivid peril Violet Candy mixed in. I’ve also hand painted those Silver Flames with some added Holographic glitter I’d blended into the metallic silver paint, so it really sparkles in the sunlight. Additionally, I’ve added many special touches to this wonderful Stratocaster. I do hope you like it as much as I do! Custom painted guitar by Artist Dan Seitzinger, DanMar Creations / DMS Studios.
