Mia's Nighttime Adventure

OK, the real adventure was setting up and taking the first two shots outside at night. The full moon was bright and beautiful but all the light you see here is from the camera flash. At least I finally got to use that witch costume I've had for a few years. Oh well! Come check out the results at The Republic Of Geektopia.

A Tale of Halloween

As the time goes past, these tasks get a little harder. But this is one that needed a special time of the day - and year - to share.

Adventurers Club: October

It's a new month, therefore, time for a new ADVENTURE!!!!

 

Welcome, Adventurers!

 

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

October Theme:

Night

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

October is a spooky month,

a time when ghouls and ghosts

roam in the night,

when zombies walk and witches fly.
So now would be the perfect time

for our little doll and toy friends

to sneak outside and have an adventure

IN THE NIGHT!

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 

 Perhaps you're new to the Adventurer's Club...

Would you like to join the Adventurer's Club?

"What is it?" you ask?

The Adventurer's Club is a monthly photo challenge.

The "theme" for the month is vague enough that you can complete the task indoors if you're not a "drag your dolly out in public" kinda person.

ALL DOLL TYPES ARE WELCOME!

On the FIRST DAY of every month, I will reveal that month's theme.

There will be participation prizes...
these will be given out on a "number of months participated" basis.
There will be a 6 month and 12 month participation prize.

The months will be cumulative, because I know life happens and sometimes we might miss a month.
Although I'm thinking I might have to make an extra special prize for anyone who participates for 12 months straight!

*NOTE*
January is a "wild card"... since I put this one up so late, you can complete this one at any time throughout the year. If you would like to participate in the January Adventure, please do!

You can find the theme on the Adventurer's Club tab, here:

http://dolladventurersclub.blogspot.com/p/about-adventurers-club.html

Don't feel like you have to have a masterpiece photograph either,

snap the shot with your cell phone, a point and shoot or a pro camera,

it doesn't matter, just as long as the resulting image is theme related!

How do you participate?

Simple!

1. Take your photo that relates to the theme

2. Share that photo with me (via email, posting a comment with a link, etc), on our Flickr Group:

http://www.flickr.com/groups/2496069@N20/

  or by tagging me, @littlebearries on Instagram!

Leona's Problem- Geektopian's August 2014 entry.

In right under the wire once again! The August entry features a guest appearance from Leona Ozaki of Dominion: Tank Police fame. If you're familiar with the series, you know that Leona's favorite mode of transportation is her mini-tank, Bonaparte. Since there's not a 1/6 scale Bonaparte here at Chez Geek, Leona's been on the lookout for a suitable substitute and well, you'll have to see what happens HERE.

Exotic or Not?

This month, Lycee travels to the wild lands of Backyardia to meet an exotic creature. But this guy insists he's not exotic at all, leaving our adventurer a bit frustrated!

Join us at The Republic of Geektopia to see the whole story!

After stormy days and missing t-shirts (her's, not mine), I finally got this in just under the wire! Special thanks to my son for the loan of the exotic(?) creature.

A few alternate logos for the Adventurer's Club

Here are a few alternate logos for The Adventurer's Club...

I actually commissioned these ones a long time before the logo I'm currently using,

but for various reasons, they didn't get done until this week!

They're really cute though, so I thought I'd share them...

that way if you want to change it up, or use one of these,

you can!

(The aqua haired girl is an illustration of my Dollfie Dream Alna,

the pink haired gal is a Chiika) XD

Anyways, I hope you enjoy them!

Also, don't forget to join in on this month's theme!

Exotic Animals!

I did cut the yard not long after this was taken.
