Hi Pat, Thanks for the pics. These are pretty wild! I love the heads with all the weird hair colors, of course, I am addicted to that. LOL the body is something else! And we thought Candi was busty! Pretty cool though. I wish we had more access to things that let you get this creative. I am not brave enough to go through the headaches of searching for stuff in Japan.

Hi, Kathy & Pat:
Thanks, Pat for the links. I had seen them when I was trying to decide whether to get an Obitsu. I thought the one with the McKenzie makeover was beautiful. She has a "regular" body. I got a "glamor" body and am trying to decide which head to get for her. I have found a place in Canada which sells them. It will be my first attempt at facial painting. In the meantime I have stuck a Mattel head on her. Here's a link to her:

Loved the pic. but that furniture is great, the 'glass' door on the bathroom, & the great living room furniture. Where'd you get this stuff ? Pat On Sunday, August 24, 2003, at 10:37 AM, pa_nz@ wrote:

Thanks, Pat:
As you can tell, I'm into dioramas and 1.6 scale miniatures. I just think my gals should have a place to live. lol. I use a lot of resources, and enjoy the hunt. I've accumulated items from e-Bay, miniaturist artists, hobby shops, 1.6 scale furniture makers, mini printables (one of the best on the net is www.printmini.com/printables), I repaint Barbie furniture, and I kit bash. DH makes the room boxes for me, even putting in doors and windows, and I furnish them. It's a relaxing hobby. If anyone is interested in anything specific that they see, I'll be glad to provide info.

Melissa: You are so right. A lot of doll artists are mad over them. I've seen some achingly beautiful work - mystical, imaginative stuff.
