I’ve rearranged the small populations, so here’s a new census with new photos of those added or altered since last time. This is only those out and about, not those in storage or progress.
Additions and alterations:
Total number of dolls out and about at both home and work: 89.
Continue reading All my dolls, 01/01/2026Since the last view of all my doll sets, I have acquired a new bookcase, moved sets to different shelves, added some decoration with vintage stickers, and completed the Magister’s kitchen 2.
Continue reading All my sets, 09/26/2025I have revamped my doll sets [not shown in this entry] and rearranged who’s out, in storage, or gone. So here is a new census with updated pictures for those dolls who have been added or altered since the last census. Reminder that this census only shows dolls that are out and about, not dolls in progress or dolls in storage.
Additions and alterations:
Total number of dolls out and about at both home and work: 90.
Dolls of Hardshippers: Elder Witches x3, dorklets x7, Memory, Solace, Harry, Missy, Bell, big dorklets x7, mini dorklets x4, toon Hardshippers x4, bb dorklets x1.
Fraction of my dolls that are Hardshippers: 31/90 = 34.4%.

Continue reading All my dolls, 08/23/2025Les voici! I am in the midst of setting up the Magister’s kitchen part II, which has taken over the shelf where the shuz store used to be. The shuz store has taken over the lowest shelf on the same bookcase and evicted the reading room, which is currently on the floor.
Continue reading All my sets, 08/23/2025I decided to update some of my census photos because some small populations have left and some have updated or rearranged. This is probably the last census for 2024 because I hope to be moving soon! No particular order. Dolls in each pic are named from left to right. Click on any pic to enlarge.
Continue reading All my dolls, 11/23/2024Time for another census! For expediency’s sake, some of the the small populations are grouping in twos and threes for photos. They are not in any particular order. I just took them from the sets they were hanging out in and plopped them in front of a neutral background for photos. All photos list the dolls from left to right.
Total dolls out and about at home and work: 110.
Dolls of Hardshippers: Elder Witches x3, dorklets x7, Elva, Memory, Solace, Harry, Missy, Bell, big dorklets x7, mini dorklets x4, toon Hardshippers x9. Total: 34.
Fraction of my dolls that are Hardshippers: 34/110 = 30.9%.
Continue reading All my dolls, 06/08/2024All the small populations out and about as of today. Most pictures are recycled from last time, except for new additions, pictures of people that changed significantly, and pictures that were bad last time so I retook them.
Continue reading All my dolls, 07/07/2023I did a quick and dirty photo census of the hordes, with in situ shots of everyone.
Continue reading All my dolls, 03/15/2023Updated from the one two months ago with those small populations who have significantly changed and been added. Continue reading All my dolls, 06/30/2022
Took a census of all my dolls that are out and about. Because the Hardship Toy Shop set has the best light, I decided to photo my small populations in front of my Liebig trade cards showing a kid playing with her doll. Well, at least until I got tired of taking everyone off the shelves and photoing them. Some photos are taken from my previous census of those dolls who haven’t changed since then. Continue reading All my dolls, 04/20/2022

I walled off a corner of the living room with two bookcases to create a place where I can hang out in my new recliner and have [the illusion of] privacy. Here are the new scenes on these shelves:
I’ve been moving my furniture around the apartment. I used to have my compooper out in the main room, but I moved it into my bedroom onto the desk that I had been using for dolls and photos. Now my former doll desk is my compooper desk. The table that once held compooper now holds creative projects. I also ejected a large brown bookcase that stood on the bedroom floor in favor of shelves in the deep windowsill. And there are some new 1:6 scale sets for my dolls to enjoy!

I used to have just my dolls hanging out on shelves, talking to each other so that they wouldn’t get bored. Back in February of this year, though, I realized that I also had lots of nifty furniture, props, accessories, etc., that languished in storage. I could arrange them into vignettes for my dolls so they could do activities besides talking! Below are overviews of each scene, then detail shots.

Wow, I haven’t done a census of the small populations in about a year and a half. Time for another.
I have a new means of taking my sporadic censuses of the small populations. Instead of shooting new photos for each census, I just spent many hours taking full-length and bust-length portraits of everyone. I will use these portraits for my censuses as long as each doll’s look remains constant. If significant change occurs, such as a new faceup, wig, body or doll altogether for the same character, I will update the portrait. However, since most of my dolls stabilize with a single form over time, I plan to reuse lots of these portraits. Here we go!
Dolls at work.

It’s been about a month and a half since my last census, and things have changed yet again, mostly in the active populations at my house. I’m reusing photos from the last census for everyone except the "out and about" crew at home.

Since some of the photos from my previous census saved at a very low resolution, I’m doing another census with better pictures.Continue reading All my dolls, 05/18/2013

Stupid dolls…they keep moving around. :p No pictures this time, just a handy dandy numbered list with some stats.
The Name column is self-explanatory. I included Angel Bear and the Hillman Minx, even though they are not dolls, because I included them in my latest doll census.
As for Scale/Type, the scale is also obvious, but, for non-dolls, as well as dolls that are not either 1:6 or 1:3 scale, I made a note of the type of toy.
The Universe column explains who a doll interacts with. "Display" means that the dolls don’t interact with anyone; they just sit there, looking pretty. "LHF" means Love Has Fangs. "M3" means Me and My Muses. "Mine" means those characters that mouth off directly to me. :p And "Zville" means Zombieville.
The M/F/GQ/n/a refers to a character’s gender identification. "M" is for male, "F" for female, "GQ" for genderqueer, "n/a" for "irrelevant/unassigned." Binary-identified trans characters [Andrew, Carter, Marabou, MacKenzie] are not flagged here because "trans" is not a gender identification for them.

I haven’t taken a census of my small-scale populations in years. The last one I completed was at the end of August, 2010, which is eons in doll time. Since then, I’ve moved house and kept over half of my peoples in storage, much to my dismay, so I haven’t been able to survey everyone.
Tomorrow, though, I’m rescuing everyone from storage at my parents’ house and moving them to my office, just so I can get to them easily without taking a 25-minute drive one way to see them. In preparation for the reunion of doll subgroups, I started an inventory tonight of those peoples who are out and about.Continue reading All my dolls, 12/15/2012, part 1: out and about

[Posted on May 19, 2013, but backdated to October 17, 2001, for chronological order.] As I sorted through old photo albums recently, I discovered pictures from my first 1:6 scale populations! Unfortunately, the photos were taken on film with a camera that didn’t do closeups well. However, for the sake of historical curiosity, I have scanned the best ones and annotated them.
