Back home now and hopefully back to schedule tomorrow.

Love Jinx' attitude! Beautiful shots!
And Bea is gorgeous, too. Love that last shot of her at the piano!
Thank you! - yes, I was quite pleased how the startled pose turned out. It is a change to all the standing around whilst singing.
Well, quite obvious that Jinx is one of the special badass girls.
Though they all kind of have their somewhat aloof attitude.

Is the piano actually a functioning miniature replica? It appears that the keys move, at any rate!
Thanks so much! yeah, you know the frustrating lack of articulation of those dolls - and the next to impossible mission to get them to stand by themselves.
Yes, the piano actually does work. All keys move. You could play it with toothpicks - but I have not tried yet because it is a Japanese plug. And as I would not know what to do with it being plugged in, I do not want to risk to damage it plugging it with a similar German plug. (There is also an SD card slot to have it play recorded stuff. However, the instruction being Japanese...
)
I saw it here on the board and finally got it in November. And I have not regretted doing so. I am quite happy with it. (ebay "Sega Toys Grand Pianist" if anyone is interested. I got a used one.)

Thank you! nice to keep seeing you around

The small vessels with plants in them. The rose quartz? Table is a luxury piece of furniture that suits the extravagant lady very well. Thank you for your effort in making us all happy when looking at your pictures.
Thanks so much!
I hope my efforts succeed once in a while. Thinking of your amazing creativity and fearless approach to customising incredibly out-of-the-ordinary figures, there is absolutely no reason to be jealous of my rather default photographs. But of course I am happy that you like my stuff.

Bea looks right at home playing it.
Did she have help assembling the table? The Genie could make it happen I guess.
Thank you for being a frequent visitor too!
As for the piano, see above pls.
Great idea that I had not thought of. The Genie could use a bit of practice - but then again: do we have more than
3 wishes? if not, we should not waste them on assembling furniture...

Thanks very much for bearing with me! The table was indeed a cool surprise - but most presents are. We just rarely get furniture.

Thank you!

Thanks you so much! I am really glad you enjoy Bea.
Visisonor wrote:Nutcracker, a classic!
I totally expected the dog in the video to play Tchaikovsky, so I assume the Dalmatian from your photo did.
yes, now THAT choice of music would have just blown the improbability scale (just remember that I did the planning of music and figures before knowing what is inside the presents)
csyeung wrote:ooh! Love your advent calender thread! Always fun to see all the amazing creations your group makes. Thanks for sharing again this year!
You are most welcome. Thanks so much for joining.
Diana wrote:Haha, Oswald is cool. And those churros look amazing! Dalmatian and nutcracker, too, of course.
Thank you! The churros are a 3D print and I am really amazed how real they look, all crisp and sugary...
ElBundy wrote:Wow, perfect and lovingly designed again! Congratulations!
Thank you! Glad you stopped by.
GubernatorFan wrote:Your dog is adorable. Even if we didn't see or hear it play and sing.
well, ONE of them singing should be enough
I find it remarkable though that dogs should come up with such ideas... has anyone here any such experience?

yes, a little "winter rainbow" (new coat to show off
)

Or miniature scale fireworks?
Or... miniature scale real fireworks?
just miniature scale unreal fireworks... fine with me... not a big fan of the real stuff.
serves decoration purposes perfectly
