My work provides me with the coolest fucking places to take photographs.

I do apologize for the repetitive posing. I only had a brief period of time to set him up and get my shots while I was on lunch break.



Sometimes being inconspicuous is best. You have to sacrifice equipment in favor of avoiding notice by blending in with a casual environment, but if you pull it off you probably won't catch anyone's attention even if they see you.




And sometimes it doesn't really matter if you're blending or not, because you're going somewhere more secure or less trafficked, and you'll stand out as a target no matter what you're wearing - in those situations, it's often best to opt for better gear. At least then you're better prepared to deal with any problems that arise if you're spotted.

^_^ Thankies! I'm a sucker for armed dolls, too. It combines two of my favorite things, after all.

Thank you! The weird spaces at work are the BEST for photos.

"Don't mind me! I'm just skulking around in your pipes :D."

Super sweet pics! Love Darryl's outfit. You always find such realistic goodies for your gang!

Skulking in the pipes, indeed! XD

The vest was made by [info]newbabyfly, and the rest is from Dollheart, Ajumapama, and assorted random sellers.

**chuckle** Well, actually the only Ajumapama item is his beanie. ^_~

Lovely chiarscuro. I love how Darryl surfaces out of the mix of shadows in these shots.

Yeah, there's a special balance there - the point of the clothing is to remain hidden in the shadows, but I wanted him to be visible in the photos...I have a lot more where the only things you can really see are his face and hands. XD

That looks to me like a pretty awesome lunch break. x3 What a set! These are great pictures... he's got so much attitude. (Those jointed hands really do wonders for conveying poses/personality.)

I know! The jointed hands are just fucking amazing. I love them. I need to get more, at some point. Talon needs some, Jian Yuan...and I hope they get cracking on those girl ones they promised, because the male ones are just a bit too big for Wren, sadly.

So that was what you were doing, uh huh, Darryl looks good down in maintenance.

That was what I was doing. ^_~ When I bring a doll to work, it's usually because I want to take photos.

Awesome shots. You know, kiya, your dolly, he smiles so strangely when he's out among the pipes and he's armed. Like he's rilly rilly happy. Happy little dolly with sharp things in its pocketses, and jointed hands.
Hmmmmm....

He does, doesn't he? A little, slightly-amused smirk. One of those "I know something you don't know" expressions, except the "something" he knows is that someone is about to eat concrete. XD

^__^ It's weird, isn't it? He's all creeping around in someone's pipes, which would normally induce markedly not-safe feelings, but since it's Darryl, is does the opposite.

It's like having a cop show up in the ER with a drawn taser. Yeah, it's a taser - but it's a cop. As long as you're not the one doing anything wrong, that's a good thing.
