Chapter 1: Weathering the Scandal

March 29th, 2009

Chapter One (14 of 14)

To be continued…sometime.

Ack! I have the next part all written out, but I'm not sure when I'll be able to get around to taking pictures for it. I have to work on a chapter for my Sims' story first. I've neglected it for way too long. ^_^;

Anyway, this whole thing was much harder than I thought it was going to be. If I had known going into it how much time this was going to take me, I don't think I would have done it. Good God, could you imagine if I did this with my other stories? I think I would be curled up in a corner drooling by now. 😕 haha

    Amazing! I can see how you spent quite a bit of time on this. And we finally get to see Tahlvin's gorgeous tattoos!

    "Damn elf ears"
    "I heard that"
    Priceless :D. I've only done one photostory with my first doll and since gave up on it so I can appreciate the effort you put in. This one is very well structured, not to mention there's a healthy dosage of eyecandy. I'm not really familiar with the other two but Tahlvin's personality really came out nicely in the pics :XO:.

    BanSidhe: Thank you! Yes, Tahlvin wanted to do the pictures with his jacket off so that he could show off his tatts. 😉

    Mom: Thanks! I hope you'll enjoy later then. haha

    HydraKitten: heehee Yeah, Tahlvin has such a confidence and arrogance that he just dominates the scenes. I love his character. And, thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed it!

    This was a wonderful read. I love the comic format and I swear Tahlvin is simply delicious.

    Gah! It's been such a long time… but I still wuv Ethyn. What makes a doll so good-looking and charming? (Of course, you characterised him, so you take some credit for making him "be" like that). I really like Tahlvin, too – it's funny seeing him as a Sim, and then again as a BJD! I love his tattoos, and his little smirky mouth.

    Poor Ethyn and Julian; there has to be more to this than first meets the eye.

    E. Black: Thank you! I've always wanted to try a comic format. I'm a huge manga and comic fan. And, yes, Tahlvin just slays me no matter what form he is in.

    amalinaball: Ethyn is a sweetie who is hot as well. I love the guy. As my first doll (that arrived) he is the center of my BJD family.

    You have no idea how perfect this is. You just brightened my day! 😀

    Anyways, the photos are great as usual (I love your doll-sized set) and the layout is just like reading a manga. Excellent job!

    *sigh* Your boys are so beautiful. All of them. I can't pick one.

    Kiwi: Hi there! I'm very glad you enjoyed my story and that it helped make you day better. That's such a wonderful compliment to me. 🙂

    I've read so many comic and manga over the years that doing the speech bubbles was almost second nature to me. They were fun to draw and layout too.

    Oh WOW. Brilliant! And it's a photostory! Yay!

    Aoibhgreine: Thank you! It was super fun (thought hard) to do. 🙂

    "Hell, my birth was a scandal."

    "?!"

    Fufufufufufu~! I'm curious to know 'bout Tahlvin's backstory/birth, too.

    And poor Julian! Made to stand there hanging while the two were… 8D Page six looks pretty realistic, anyway. Like Ethyn's posing. ^^

  13. Kara says:
    April 4th, 2009 at 8:30 am

    Bunnisteffi: Hopefully, I'll get a chance to tell about Tahlvin's backstory/birth sometime. It will either be in Worlds Apart or here. I will tell you though that he wasn't lying when he said his birth was a scandal. 😉

    And, yes, poor Julian. I think he was almost glad that they weren't paying much attention to him at first. He's really nervous about talking to Ethyn so it was kind of a brief reprieve.

    It was fun to read and apparent that you had fun creating it. You keep getting better and better which is amazing since I'd always thought you were pretty good 😉

    Ethyn looks dreamy – I think I like blonds when it comes to my comic/bjd/movie heroes.

  15. Kara says:
    April 10th, 2009 at 9:50 am

    Lani: Aw, thank you! That really means a lot coming from you. 😀 It's funny that Ethyn has become a blond. In the beginning, I really thought he'd be dark-haired guy, but the lighter colors–blond and even red–seem to work best with him.

    By the way, wait until you see the awesome new outfit I got for him. Think "Rococo". 😉

    Kya!!!!! :XO:

    I'm SO late in commenting on this! 😯 Actually I've already read it on your flickr (I think…) and I commented there, but… I wanna comment here too! 😀

    Ah!! This was such a great idea! You totally went out and gave a great 'fanservice' to those who… you know, are like me~ kekeke. 🙂 I loved the entire idea of this! The angles were fantastic, but that was to be expected and the plotline, though short, was very captivating. I'm especially interested in Tahlvin now. 8)

    I was really sad when you said you were going to give/sell away Dominik but… I think I see more possibilities now… kekekeke~ 👿

  17. Kara says:
    May 4th, 2009 at 11:31 am

    haha Yep, you commented on Flickr as well, so thank you for taking the time to do so here as well. 😀

    It's sad that Dom is gone, but I'm glad that you see the possibilities with my other guys. 😉
