Oink oink to all Piggy lovers

Jan 29, 2010

    1. Hi Be In! Hi darlin' from me and Arthur and Pippin. What a little sweetheart! And so clever to take such beautiful pictures of herself. Her little bits and pieces are so sweet! Please, please show her dressed as a bunny! (Excuse my not accenting Be In's name properly -- I'll have to work out how.)

      gatodelsol, I absolutely love Finn's cheeky face shining up out of the picture of the big ladies. Finn is the cheeky one. Banbhan is the responsible one.

      Muja, I asked Arthur and Pippin what Bibish, Bibish means in Porkitounge, but they got into an argument about it. Arthur says it's the special quality of moonlight as it strikes a beautiful piggy lady on a soft autumnal night. Pippin says it's a sort of carrot. (I don't believe either of them actually knows.)

      DollZwize your piggies and other little ones are so spoilt. Pippin and Arthur don't actually have environs -- unless you count the sofa.
       
    2. Oh you all know Banbhan is a romantic guy. He was thinking of soft pink roses and a blush at the cheeks of lovely ladies. But Arthur you are a poet.............moonlight on a soft autumnal night, sounds Valentines.

      Bรฉ is very sweet and Kev is waving, maybe he like to have his own tofuto ???
       
    3. Hee hee hee! Good eye, Tiggy! But I can assure you she didn't "sneak"....there was no question about her being front and center! ;)

      LOL!!! psammead, I can always count on you (or Arthur and/or Pippin!) to give me a laugh! And wow, with that silver-tongued way with words, I can't believe Arthur hasn't yet won over the lovely Hilde! I better not let Fiona read this or she'll be asking Finn why he never says such things to her!! :)

      And welcome to OctoTini and the lovely little Baby Piggy! :)
       


    4. Thank you very much ^_^ She has been telling me that she wants more shiny coins daily so that her friends, sisters, brothers ... can come to live with us soon




      Don't worry about accenting her name properly. By the way, her name sounds really like Babe Oink
      .
      Another interesting fact is that Charles Stephan, the artist of Alice Cherry Blossom is actually a owner of 2 Vietnamese Pot-Bellied Pigsand Ỉn is their original Vietnamese name.
      I'll try to finish her bunny dress soon as she has been begging me for awhile now but I didn't have time to make one for her yet



      Thank you~ I'm glad

      Thanks~ because of her that I have a crazy obsession for pig-related products now T_T
       
    5. OcoTini! That little sweetie looks like she loves being photographed, and to photograph! I love it!

      Hi hi pomponette! You must resolve the mystery very soon! Even Hilde is curious about her!

      Three cheers for your newest piggie arrival DollZwize! Her little pink outfit is simply darling, does it suit her personality to a T? Please post many many pictures of your Moishe Mole romance~ I love love OpheliaL's! It's a real shame there's not many photos of them out there. They are so mysterious . . .

      Lol @ gatodelsol's family photo. Those sneaky pigs! Of course they didn't want to be left out~

      Over the holidays I went a little crazy and bought new outfits for Hilde, but I haven't had time to photograph her. She's been sulking recently over that. However, I told her that everyone here loved her Christmas outfit and she brightened up a bit. I'm also afraid she's been reading my romance novels while I've been away and has got it in her silly head that she is ready for love. Maybe because Valentine's day is approaching?

      I wish everyone a piggirific new year! Please post more tofutos . . . of course, one photo at a time please. :)
       
    6. Banbhan discovered the problem with the cart of Madu...............the breaks are bad so for a quick repair ......

    7. What an industrious little guy your Banbhan is!! Not only does he maintain the household and care for the kiddos on his own, but he helps out his friends with their mechanical woes! Finn is now feeling rather embarrassed about spending his time lazing about in front of the fire!
       
    8. I think Finn is a Philosopher and of course he need time to think.
      Banbhan don't do it all by himself, Don have more the know how of mechanics and Lugh is always there to give advice. And sure he is happy to let his kiddo's for a hour of two with the girls.
       
    9. Oh, daren't let Arthur read this -- it would get his hopes up so much! Fiatan, you're right we need more Ophelias here. (And myself, I have a longing for a little sleepy Peter.)

      Banbhan is just the best, isn't he? A wonderful father and a great friend. It's nice to see him having some "guy time" with his friend. He must miss it.

      gatodelsol, Finn mustn't be embarrassed. He did all that travelling by himself -- now he needs to rest. But what all the piggies have in common is that they love home. Banbhan is so domesticated and Finn is so happy on his rug. Arthur went through a stage of wanting to be a CSI piggy and detect crimes. But when he realised he'd have to leave my study to do it, he got less keen. The thought of leaving all the other dollies and his happy home was not an appealing one. So he just keeps an eye out for local crimes, but to be honest not much crime happens in my study.
       
    10. but to be honest not much crime happens in my study.

      Hahahaha I can hardly pity him for that. There is a lot of Cyber crime these days, I think your guy need a computer and he can go at work without leaving the study !!
       
    11. Did someone say Here Piggy, piggy?!

    12. Oh. My. God.

      It's like discovering the lost tribe of Israel or something.

      Mouth drops open in sheer unbelievement. (Is that even a word?)

      Squeeeeeee!!!! Piggies!!!!

      I count:

      a CCC Ophelia (easy)
      two Elfdoll Alice Cherry Blossoms (a boy and a girl)
      two CCC Bubus (boy and girl with eyebrows -- Bubus look so different with eyebrows)
      three Dollfactory Kikis (one pink face-up, one brown face-up and one black and white)
      a Cocotribe Patrick at the back in grey and black stripes

      Then the ones I sort of know:
      the two toddlers in high chairs are clearly CCC -- Ian and Julia? -- I'm never sure how many small piggies Charles Stephan did
      the two small piggies at the front are also Charles Stephan I think -- I think they might be the keyring piggies he did with someone
      the baby on the front is the same as Banbhan's Aya -- but I don't know where she's from

      The ones I don't know
      The two big piggies at the centre back look like ACBs but they're huge. Patrick, who's next to them is 17 cm, so they must be like 20-22 cm!!!!:o (Arthur would faint dead away.)
      As for the piggy girl in the red polka dots and bow, I swear I never saw her before in my life!

      RoseAnn, thank you! Can you tell us anything about the unidentified piggies? And do these beautiful creatures have names?

      No little sleepy Peter, but as I now see that my ACB and Bubu will look fine with Peter (who's the same height as his cousin Patrick), there's nothing stopping me ordering him! Thank you!
       
    13. The two Tallest are Victoria and Edward.....Elfdoll..parents of William and Alice and Ian and Julia.....
      Yes that is Patrick...17cm
      and the little girl in the pink polkadota dress is Pipos Ruthie Piggy
      OBVIOUSLY, I LOVE piggies.....and to be honest...I thought I would NEVER want an anthro.....but when I sae Alice...well...she started it all!!
       
    14. Most everyone kept their " given" names....
      Elfdoll's Victoria, Edward, Alice, William ( Billie), Ian and Julia
      Patrick and Ruthie and Ophelia kept their names.....
      the Kikis are Rosie, Posie, and Jack
      The Bubus are Molly and Oliver
      The tiny baby is Penny
       
    15. RoseAnn!

      Your collection is amazing! My jaw literally dropped when I saw it! These are so cute.

      It's an Ophelia!! My favorite black piggy returns in a wonderful cape! Did you make that yourself?
       
    16. Omg RoseAnn -your piggie family is so Amazing! I thought I had alot, but not alll those full sets of beauties! I am so curious about that BW dollfactory Kiki - what do you think of the posing and character?

      Ooooh I have an Victora, Baby Julie with both sleeping and awake heads, and my Precious schoolgirl alice, and ALL the tiny keychain crew, but I am so curious about especially the Dollfactory ones - what do you think of them?

      So Cute MuJa that go cart just slays me - is it an erector set kit? I just adore that car!

      Sooo agree with Fiatan - your Ophelia looks so stunning in that caped outfit - did you make that?

      As well she should be Gato - I just adore her! TiGGy says HI Sis!
       
    17. DollZwize
      The Dollfactory dolls are well made especially considering their price and the fact that... they usually arrive within a couple of weeks after you order them. Their faces are adorable....I have the mouse family also...including the larger parents....and two unicorns. CUTE!!!
      IF you dress the unicorns...and of course, this is not necessary...they are adorable " neggid".....the magnetic tail and wings may be problematic i.e.....staying on where they belong.....but other than that....I would say that they pose about as well as any other of these small anthros.
      I did do more " face-up" on the Kiki black and white piggy in that I added more dark areas to his face-up....the back of his ears and head primarily, I made black also as I thought it needed it...but that was strictly personal opinion.

      I did not make this outfit for Ophelia....I originally had it made for my FF Fidelia Vamp...but the seamstress did not have a FF faerie to fit it on...I tried to give her proper measurements...I failed.....and, when it came...alas...it was just too much dress for Quinn....she was very upset...VERY VERY upset....but it fit Ophelia perfectly! I can PM you the name of the artistic lady who made it....she is on DOA....
       
    18. It is rather difficult to make clothes without the doll itself, but what a great luck it fit Ophelia and so nicely too ! Even when you have the right measurements it is tricky, I remember making clothes for my Ryuu ( Puki Puki) and it is just so difficult to imagine that it is really sooo tiny so I became insecure and made it slightly bigger and yes it ended up too big when she came.
       
    19. RoseAnn your piggy family is utterly fab! *faints* So nice to see them all together.
       
    20. Wow! I love seeing pictures like that with everyones crew together. They look all very cute ^^

      Oh I need some help, I am playing with my kiki when I notice three shiney spots on her face T.T you can't catch it on pictures but I was wondering what can I do about it. Should I just let it be and when it gets bad get her a new faceup? Or is there something I can do so it's not shiney anymore? Thank you for your help, and heres a picture of my Tina. Sorry about the photo >.< I only have my phone camera.
