Like most 90s kids, I grew up watching Yugioh. I also collected my fair share of Yugioh cards. My favorite cards were the Charmers. I just liked their character design. Their effect was also kinda strong back in the day. Most of my Yugioh fanarts focus on the first- and second-generation cards. I saw the show when it was new on WB39. It was such a bother whenever they changed up the time for the show. I sometimes fancy what it would have been like had Atem not gone the way of the dodo. He suffered so much for his...

Today, I did a photoshoot of my ballerina doll in a pretty red dress. I took about 35 photos of my lovely bjd doll. I fluffed up the bottom of her skirt in order to give it more volume. Odette was made by Dollmore. The outfit belongs to my Dearmine bjd cat doll. It is fun to see which doll can wear this pretty red outfit. Once the doll was dressed, all that remained was getting the set ready for her photoshoot. I used my two of my handkerchiefs for background elements.   The butterflies and the flowers worked well...
