Reaghan

Another lovely lady, who will have a place in the Glade stories eventually made her way to Ohio this week. My friend Robyn had ordered her and then when she arrived she didn't quite fit into her crew like she envisioned, so I decided to give her a place in mine. Looking at her I had an idea of how I would like to use her, and I've always loved the Elle sculpt. I am going to call her Reaghan and she will have ties to Nan I believe. She is the PG resin and has a custom face up from Iple.
Her lovely gown was made for me by Robyn of Period Threads as well. I think the color of the panne velvet compliments her coloring well.
I may play around with her eyes and try some Safrin's in her when I get better light. I hate changing the eyes in the dolls this size though, so for now she will keep the green ones she came with.

Group Dynamics

Playing around with my "Misceo" dolls today trying to get a feel for group dynamics. I had ordered Nox with the idea that he could be a love interest for Shy, but I think they have other ideas after photographing them together. Shy works for Nox, and he looks out for her, they are friends, but I don't think there is anything more there than friendship and mutual appreciation.
I then added Daisha into the mix. I actually kind of like her with Nox, but not sure where it will go as they are a bit difficult to photograph together with his resin being so dark. 
I do think they  work much better together as a potential pairing than Nox and Shy though. I really do kind of like her with him.
Daisha came with blue eyes, which I wasn't 100% happy with, so I changed them out for the brown ones that actually came in Nox today. I like the brown much better for her.
And lastly a couple of shots of Nox and Hauk. Hauk and Nox went to school together and are friends. Hauk is someone that Nox trusts completely, and there aren't many that have earned his complete trust.

Another new addition

Just a couple of quick pics of Nox, who arrived home last week. With the Thanksgiving holiday, and my son and his wife visiting, I've just now gotten to play with him a bit and try and find his look.
Here is a very quick "out of the box" flash shot with the Iple eyes he arrived with.
I wanted to change his eyes out and give him a little more "exotic" vibe like the rest of the Misceo crew, so today I changed them to Safrin Bold burst pastel and I like them better. Nox is an FID Dane in ebony. His resin is very dark and it makes him a bit hard to photograph. The wigs I had on reserve for him didn't work as well as I would have liked, so for now we are making due with the old standby, Monique Jojo.
I want to see if Chewin has a Dane in FID size, and if so order a Chewin wig for Nox. Until then...……..this one will have to do.  The sealant makes his face a tad shiny, which Iple warned me about in an email before his face up was completed.
I do like the exotic "vibe" he gives off. Finding the perfect wig will go a long way in completing his character, but for now I'm happy to have him home and look forward to playing around and photographing him with some of the other characters.
