Weekly Photo 45/2024

Here is Tjark's little teenage rebel. Keie. He is obsessed with the idea of being a Kelpie.... but as Tjark is clearly a seahorse and literally gave birth to his children he pretty much knows this is not the case.

The next Doll Character batch, a lot of merfolk in this one.

Hebbe, Keie, Charlotte, Lucille (Hilda), Afke, Nachti (Fish), Ästchen, Gunther, Winifred, Haley, Vadym, Jell, Gráinne,

Hebbe - Hebbe is one of the most precious little dolls I ever came across. I almost missed the release but I gladly was able to snag one. Hebbe is Tjark's little pet shrimp.

Keie - One of Tjark's sons, same as his father he's blessed with the ability to partially turn into a human. But he's also very... moody. In fact he's obsessed with being a Kelpie and not a Seahorse.

Charlotte - Part of the C-Siblings, she's older than Charlie but younger than Charlene. She also got cursed but uses her ability a lot. I always adored the Peak'swoods dolls and their face ups, so I totally fell for her as she got released.

Lucille (Hilda) - A doll I adopted from Roterwolkenvogel. As she shares the same face up artist with Teddy she quickly took the role of his sister. Hilda; later Lucille, got caught as she tried to investigate the Sideshow her brother was last seen at. She got corrupted as well but she .... turned into a brainless doll.

Afke - Another of Tjark's offspring, but is a leafy seadragon. She can't turn into a human nor can she speak. Originally this doll was mint/pink but she arrived in a phase in which I hated pastel colored dolls for the fact they only got attention for their colors and not their concepts... I decided to dye the doll dark green.

Nachti (Fish) - Nachti's form as fish. It took over a year until I had this doll.. I thought this would be the longest preorder for me... haha. I got a 3D file as apology from the artist.

Ästchen - A friendly little forest spirit. I love the fact the doll came with a lot of face options.

Gunther - Doll No 100. I got him as a gift from Roterwolkenvogel. A little koi that swims around happily.

Winifred & Haley - I added a lot of autumn themed creatures over the years and especially the ones with Pumpkin items were (and are still) my favorites. I had to add these two. Winifred came with a Pumpkin head and Haley got a mask from another company I was able to obtain.

Vadym - Humanoid dragon, he hoards everything that's shiny. But even before himself there is one single person he would put first: his love Sam.

Jell (Mini) - From Nachti's storyline. A jellyfish merman who is deeply in love with Clares, the prince, but Clares loves Nachti.

Gráinne - A banshee. Actually I got this doll to shell Jell, but a day later an actual jellyfish doll was released... so I had to come up with another concept.

I think DC Clemans is my overall favorite event doll Doll Chateau ever created, seriously. I love this concept of a doll so much. And I love the character I gave the doll, my little seahorse kelpie Keie.

I took overall 6 dolls with me to the sea, this week has a lot of sea side photos :3

Keie was one of them, he’s so tiny and delicate, but perfect for photos like this.

I love this diorama so much, this is everything I ever wanted for the merfolk ♥

I’m so happy I took the whole bunch of sea-themed dolls with me. The photos finally have a fitting theme for them. Keie is still a bit hard to photograph but I enjoyed working with him again.

Oh dear, seems like the fishers caught a kelpie instead of some shrimps.

Plants for the Diorama, and some off-box-shots of it :) it gets better and better ♥

Highly looking forward to the three little fishes that will move into it in the future and add even more charme to it.

For the background I want to print one of my own photos, these are potential candidates for it:

I checked usual Aquarium background as I got the plants but i highly disliked them, they looked so boring.
