Getting Ahead of Myself

3/15/2022

In the world of doll photography some photos come about as a result of a sudden inspiration, but most take some planning.  Like Baron and Naomi's wedding, which will take place at some point later this year. But I'm actually planning even further ahead, to when the two of them will have some children.

So I purchased a set of twins from Junkyspot last month. A little boy and a little girl; Myou Du Du and Feng Linger (who will definitely need new names). They are a little bigger than baby Sena, so too big to be 'babies', but are the perfect size to be toddlers.  When they arrived I thought I'd check them out size-wise with their future Mom....

The twins are about the scale of a one-year old toddler....

 Junkyspot also sent a free gift of a little Hujoo baby along with the two Myou children. It's the right size for a baby, but doesn't really work aesthetic-wise. She'd work much better as a Fairy baby....

So I gave the baby some eyes, and borrowed some of Sena's clothes to see if they would fit the three of them, and they did, although everything was a bit too short for the twins, and way too big for the baby.  I also borrowed a wig destined for someone else, just to see how it would look on the little girl.  Then took some photos of the three of them....

The twins will need both Medieval and contemporary outfits, as well as wigs, but I put them back in their boxes, since I'm nowhere near ready to tackle either just yet.  I have plenty of time since their future parents aren't even married, or expecting yet. At least not as far as I know.

The twins are so sweet. Their outfits are adorable. Naomi and Baron certainly do move fast. Well, I guess it's not fast yet because it hasn't happened (chuckle).

It was nice that you received a gift doll. I like to give and receive dolls. I think she will be a lovely fairy baby.

The twins are very cute. I have a Du Du also; and I named mine Teddy. He fits in with my 1/6 mature mini crew, who are all medieval as well, so he’ll be getting a medieval costume too. I used your Tibetan Lambskin wig pattern for the 5.5 (Kaye Wiggs Cinnamon) wig to make him a wig from faux fur, and, aside from needing some hot glue on his head cap, it fits him great.
