Sisu,

Do you photograph your dioramas?  I'd love to see what you're doing.  I've become a bit of a diorama junkie and I'm always looking for a fix.  ;-)

I completely forgot about another male doll I have, forgot about
him because he's in a diorama on the bottom shelf of my curio.
He's a hunting dude - you want to see a scary face? I'll have to
take a picture of him. He's drinking beer while game warden
Candi (hispanic lacy secrets) is ready to arrest him. He could
easily fit in a prison diorama. Dh got him at a hunting store
in Michigan, I think it was Cabelo's? The detailing on his gear
is amazing, clothes the quality of vintage Barbie. I think
about driving the 5 hours to Michigan just to get another one.
I've looked on ebay with no success.

Thanks for the suggestion Pat.

I've ignored my Candi's lately (never was much of a Barbie
collector) since I found the Tyler dolls. But it's so difficult
to find diorama items for those bigger dolls. I have kept all my
Candis because I have so many odds and ends for dioramas and can
always find more.

Now that's creative! But alas, with cats I'm limited to the
curios. I love making dioramas just as much as the cats love
playing with the pieces. sigh.
