I have created ScoonimDolls for posing/staging and to look like as if they are alive on photo. Plain and simple. So, obviously, it was my intention to show the potential of my creation by posting photoseries. Using my own ScoonimDoll Stellai, was the obvious choice. Nothing weird so far. But, while doing so, I opened Pandora's box....
Now for a considerable amount of hours per week I find myself writing and working on photos for Stellai. She has her own account for email, Facebook and CoverDoll. She has her own friends and and even fans and on top of that she is reporter for CoverDoll e-zine, which is nothing less than a gain momentum in her existence. (To see her most recent report in CoverDoll you can use this link: Stellai's blog. It is said to be a must-see
)I am a simple down to earth designer. I make solid products. I make ScoonimDolls. I created Stellai, but now her being is trancending the creation. Stellai has become a person. Physically she is a doll. But mentally she is now as much alive as anybody else. And unlike my own life there are non-stop occasions that would create most interesting photoseries and topics to show to the world what she is doing. For my own protection already I have denied Stellai getting her own accounts on the forum - interesting, or disturbing here is my choice of words -, because the amount of time I spend on her is already more than I can spare. This is weird and spooky. But... it is also so much fun
ScoonimDolls are non living objects. They are! I need to hold on to that. You need to hold on to that! It is a scientific fact. Well, at least most of the time. Okay, maybe exept for.... OMG, what am I saying!
If any of you still would consider getting a ScoonimDoll, see the next photoseries as a warning.

P.S.
I have added Stellai's comment in Facebook to the photos. (Albums name: I love Mop)
This is Mop. She is our new guinee pig doll. Well, actually she is the guinee pig doll of Koen's daughter, but we all love her.
Before we got her I was hoping that Koen would buy one in my size. But it seems that this is the smallest as they come.
As you see she, is not very small. But it is mainly fur. She really is not very heavy.
Mop is really adorable. She is a kind of giant baby.
She is actually too big to sit on my lap, but...
She especially likes it when you tickle her under her chin. The she starts to make little noises.
I miss Dotje, but I am very happy to have Mop as her replacement .
