Those Blythe dolls are TOO cute! They're like a G-Rated version of those little mini-hooker Bratz dolls.

Although.... under certain conditions, those gleaming little Blythe eyes might really freak me out...

The Blythe dolls are freaky weird. especially the way you can change their eye colors.

otherwise i think your list is great! but come on... ill-tempered mutated sea bass!!!

speaking of pictures of Chernobyl, have you seen the pictures over here ?

Blythe dolls are really cute!!

I'd like to photograph myself in an intimate moment too that would be one hell of a picture to get though, because you know I'm *busy*, why not ill tempered mutated sea-bass? Just don't get to close...

I understand that you want me to rescind the statement about ill-tempered, mutated sea bass.... but it's not gonna happen. Would you stick any of your appendages anywhere near those things?

Plus hello, where do they live? Dr. Evil's lair of course. And I'm not heading there unless I have a sleek and silver, sexy space-suit handy in my closet (with matching silver boots).

Lets see, someone in a bathtub. Was that not the skin from your site or char's site some time ago? I think I saw that on Ubersheque. Tub with rose pedals. I recall this as one of your "great" design moments. And I though you took all your own photos for your design. Err, I guess Stock Photos will do.

Those dolls are seriously freaking me out. They're like a bad acid flashback.

I have to go lie down now.

i would not dare stick any appendages or nice lenses near one. but i figure you could use a nice telephoto lens w/ image stabilization and it would be fine.
anyways i hear they like posing.

oh and re: silversexy space-suit? i think it can be arranged. *wink*
