Vincent as...."Lestat"????? ^_~

Oct 1, 2004

    1. This is what happens when I read Anne Rice before I go to bed....

      Also, I guess I'm gearing up a bit for Halloween---time for spooky pix!!!!!!

      :o :o :o

    2. *incoherent babbling* :o And I just finished the fifth book (for the 3rd time ^^;;)not too long ago... my Armand says "...yes, I believe he makes a good 'brat prince,' now we just need a Louis..."

      Vincent... *le sigh* Handsome as always ^^
       
    3. Have you ever seen the Paul Crees doll collection of The Vampire Chronicles?

      Paul Crees Collection

      Here's his Louis doll---OMG!! I remember when I first saw this it was before my BJD fixation...but alas...the wax pieces are like $3500. However, the Vinyl is also very cool and it's within our price range of $800!! Heh....listen to me...."our price range"!! :wink:

    5. I *love* Bermann as Lestat!
      :D
      I had thought of Shiwoo as Louis.....the one on the www.dollmore.com website wearing the white, lace groom costume.
      I tried to buy him as my first bjd, but, alas he was sold and they just didn't take him down from the website.

    6. The Vampire Lestat is my favorite book of all time (well, HP:PoA tied with it, but I've read both dozens of times). OMG I love Lestat...
       
    7. Oh Christy!!!!...
      Vincent is so gorgeous!.. *sigh*
       
    8. Christy. . you have captured that cool, slightly chilling look in your picture of Vincent! I love the way you handle his look of steel . . LOL, I think his "cousin" here can't pull off the icy glare that your guy does! :? He wants to come and get tips! (Are all the kids here myopic??)

      Do you mind if I ask how you got him to hold the body in pose when he is standing or walking? The lower "hip" joint seems to slip so easily on Durer.

      The "kids" here send greetings to you and yours! :D
       
    9. Oooh sexy. A Bermann. yes?
       
    10. Hi Sherry! :grin:

      I really tightened his strings when I got him, but I also put suede all around that hip joint and that helped. It still has a tendency to slip though....I'll probably replace that suede it's getting a bit *worn* now! :|
       
    11. Ah yes, indeedy you are correct! And if I'm correct, sounds like some other people are getting :wink:
       
    12. Thanks so much, Christy!
      Guess I need to pull Durer's strings a bit. :wink: Did put a little moleskin around all the joints in August, but probably not enough in the hip mold. He is very "laid back" ..

      Vincent is so kewl as just himself . . I don't think you can outdo that, vampire or no . . :grin:
       
    13. .... the only accessory an undead man neads is a cape.

      :grin: heehee


      (that Louis doll looks too happy. Louis is supposed to be sad and confused!

      Wouldn't it be funny if one of our dear bjd companies made vampire chronicles dolls.

      I know some people who would go psycho over that...
       
    14. :o OMG!
      Two of my favorite things: BJDs & Lestat. That's awesome like woah.
      He looks so nice, so cool and seductive. Amazing!
       
    15. SIGH ............OMG he is such a handsome boy!
       
    16. Just a tip, but moleskin is not even *remotely* as good as a suede material. I recommend going to a leather shop and picking up some pigskin or goatskin. You will be amazed at the results!! No lie. I tried moleskin but it just didn't have that 'grab' that suede skin does. It may be more spendy but sooo worth it and you can actually get quite a bit and have it for future use.
       
    17. Oh, thanks for letting me know, Christy! I really did not think about it grabbing better. Had used the moleskin on the others, as it is easy to get and didn't stop to think about the genuine article with it's roughed out side. Wonder if deerskin would work as well, also. Thanks so much!! :D I really appreciate that!! And so will Durer.. Maybe now, he will stop slouching!
       
    18. Ah, very lovely! :grin:

      but, alas...


      I have never read *ANY* Anne Rice.... or even seen one of the movies based on her books... *_* I really wouldn't be able to say how much or how little he resembles Lestat...er... -san.

      I just remember when I showed one of my friends the D.o.D. Yen (standard) pictures from the official Dream of Doll website (http://www.dreamofdoll.com >english>DoD>Yen(non tender version)), she mentioned that he reminded her of ...Armand, I think...

      *shrugs* I really don't know anything about Anne Rice or her books, just that they're very.... very... popular. And about vampires. >_>;;;

      ah well! *shrugs* one day I'll read 'em.

      one day....

      (yeah right.)
       
    19. I've only read Interview With the Vampire (which reeeeaaally screwed with my brain, so I'm not touching any vampire stuff for a while).

      baisically. Lestat's blond and doll-like. Louis is black-haired and green-eyed and doll-like.

      Claudia's a little girl who is like a doll until she lives a few decades past child-time.

      :D

      Big dolls, that's what they are.
       
    20. :D *I* would go psycho over that! I'm already referring to the vampire head of my Elf El (who's conveniently a BW!) as Lestat! (And he hasn't even shipped yet!) I just wish I could find the perfect blond wig... I've already found his eyes, and I've been working on some patterns for some period clothes with all that lavish lace and silk that my darling Lestat so loved. (It's so sad- I'm even trying to find a scale microphone and guitar for his 'rock star' phase!) Yeah, it's safe to say I'm pretty pathetic...

      But I still want my own Lestat! :wink:

    21. *LMAO*

      Lesutaaaato SAN! Though I have the feeling many would go all -sama and bow in adoration. :roll:

      I've got mixed feelings about all that. Didn't read the books, but I saw the movie. And I picked up on the hair and on the nails and got the same vibe I got from Hanson: "Damn, these guys are not allowed to be pretty! They're better coiffed and manicured than I am on the best of days!"

      Such is showbiz. But when it works, it works. *sigh* And damn if that doll isn't realistic. Go go le tigre go. Such a shame, though, that BJDs have empty heads...

      Anyway...

      Picture this.

      Me, circa 9th grade. I have my Japanese textbook in my hands. We are studying -na adjectives, each of which is illustrated.

      One adjective is "hansamu."

      The accompanying photo is of Tom Cruise.

      Resutato to Rui. I've seen some doujin here and there...

      I've also seen somebody do some doll cosplay and photostorying of her dolls as Lestat and Louis.

      I can't find the site anymore. Has anybody seen that somewhere?
       
    23. Ooooh, sexy. I love the way his lips are painted.
       
    24. Vincent is ALWAYS sexy..but he DOES make a sexy Lestat...but this is a "no duh" to me, m'dear. Heh. Where is your little "Claudia?" Chloe does make a cute Claudia, don't cha' know. ;)
       
    25. Allright Ann, your assignment is to post when he arrives and make sure you put LESTAT in big letters for the subject so I CAN SEE!!! Must see him when he arrives, must must must!! :wink:
       
    26. I would *love* to see that if somebody finds it---I'm such a vampire freak...hee...
       

    27. Hey yeah, you're right Mercy! But I think I may have freaked out people a bit last time with my pix of Vincent and Chloe together...

      :o :wink:

      Hey, here's that pic I took way back when of Dante, Chloe and Michael as the vampire threesome (Lestat, Claudia and Louis)...I believe crybabymommie really liked this one...

      [​IMG]
       
    28. XD Awwww....

      Yeah, it's hard to not do something vampirey with dolls, is it?
      Mwee. It fits dark prince Michael well.

      (I think Aimee's reference pics of the F29 are pretty Lestaty)

      Anyway, yeah, I've been looking for the site, but I can't find it.

      It's an English-speaker's site... and she had a number of galleries... I can't really remember the dolls. A tleast one F28, most likely.. and she (I'm assuming) had an Akira.
      I think she also had a LOTR cosplay.
       
    29. the thing with vampires--->dolls... maybe it's their shared quality of being both "alive", and "dead" at the same time... *slight smirk*

      Chloe is a very pretty one.... :3
       
    30. *bares neck*

      *sigh* Vincent......
       
    31. I LOVE that picture of all three of them, Christy...you should add fangs to all of them...and add as the caption: Fangs for the memories.

      >ahem<

      :grin:

      Really.
       
    32. DOH!
      :cow

      Tooooo funny-- I'll make it into a Halloween card!! :wink:
       
    33. I have GOT to remember to check the gallery more often! UGH!... the pics aren't showing up now. Glad I got to see the first pics of "Vinstat" earlier, but I still want to see the trio pic... pooh! Maybe it will show up again later. Anywho...

      :drool :love :wiggle :drool :love :wiggle :drool :love :wiggle :drool :love :wiggle
      Vincent is handsome as always. I love Bermann/Vincent... I love vampires/Lestat... so IMO there's no way you can go wrong putting them together!
       
    34. Wow I just saw this. Your Vincent is SOOOO perfect as lestat.

      That berman mold has to be the BEST male of all of em. Wish there was a way to still get one. So incredibly handsome.

      I am an Anne Rice freak, and have read all her books a couple of times. To me, the Crees and Coe Lestat is unbelieveably fabulous, but the Louis, though a beautiful doll, just isn't Louis tome. I alwasy thought that mold looked more how I pictured Armand.

      Louis is more youthful, and sadder rather than intense.
       
    35. :drool :drool Hey Vincent I am a nurse I can get you all the blood supply you want from the lab :wink:
       
    36. He look like real Lestat.... :love
      So nice guy, Vincent~!
       
    37. Dangnabbit, your Vincent makes me yearn for a Bermann. X_X Just look at the sculpting in his neck and around his eyelids! And I love the unusual color of his lips- almost like a bruise-color, not to be unpleasant. ^^;
      He makes such a purrrfect Lestat.
       
    38. Anne Rice, Thanks for helping me to tolerate "God" instead of hating him..

      Vincent looks very yummy as Lestat.... <3
