it seemed like a good idea at the time...

so, i was buying barbie dolls for a toys for tots drive the other day and thinking, again, that it would be cool to be able to use my breyer horses in dioramas to tell stories, and that would work great for mag7 'comic book' style re-tellings.  my brain has come up with images of an entire basement-full of 1:9 scale items - houses, carriages, fences, saloon, chairs, etc - populating my own personal 'set'.  only problem is, 1:9 scale pose-able figure dolls are hard to find if you're only familiar with Barbie.  you have to go to Ball-jointed dolls, and then have to customize those because they're made primarily for, well, hobbyists who love to do that sort of thing.

so i just spent a couple hours looking for doll heads and body-parts, and information on customization, when i ran across a page of in-progress pictures.  of doll heads.  with and without eyes. 

staring at me.

even if they have no eyeballs.

trying to suck my soul from my body.

evil creepy f*ckers.

yeah, i forgot how much i'm creeped out by dolls.  especially the eyes.  i hate the eyes, staring at me.  *shivers*  i don't think i could create mag7 char dolls without giving myself nightmares. 

*sheepish look*

of course, i hate mirrors, too, for much the same reason.  creepy non-people staring at you.


oi.
