Maisy's Got a Gun
IntotheAbyss on March 6, 2023
Seven dolls in this one. Maisy, Ivy, Kal, Christina 3000, Renee, Carmen and Blythe. Oh my aching back! That's right, they're not CGI, the dolls are real. REAL heavy.

Just gotta say it, what was depicted flying through the air was a cartridge, not a bullet. Bullets are a part of the cartridge, the part that gets fired from the barrel and leaves the cartridge case behind in the gun to be ejected and replaced by a fresh cartridge during the firing cycle. Many artists don't know the difference, probably because popular fiction conflates the two.

I understand the difference. I chose dramatic license over reality. I initially used a smooth bullet--like the one in Kal's hand--but in flight it looked kind of boring. Thank you for the comment, though!

We thought this one was going to be a bumpy ride... and lo and behold what do we have at the start?! Bump! Maisy doing the aiming at Renee and despite Renee's disbelief that she'd do it, she may have actually been taking the shot when, last minute save, Ivy to the almost rescue! Gun goes off, bullet headed to a shocked at what's happening Christina... When faster than that speeding bullet, Kal intervenes! (yay!) - So, with a 'sonic boom' of a command (not to mention knocking Philip K. Dick's 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep') a chance for things to be sorted when (shock beat!) a flaming avatar enters through the fire place... (really, the fireplace?) and it's revealed to be none other than Blythe looking truly on the crazy side! ItA, you have outdone yourself here. To say the least this is one that you better have a proper ending for or there could be rioting in the streets! The set up is so complete and so good now (not to mention revelations of powers and such! Can't wait!

Yep, you guessed it... ran out of room as we typed on and on and on... See, that's a good thing isn't it? Right, we've probably got enough going... I can almost hear the guy from those old saturday matinees... Stay tuned, who will make it out of this might messy doll festy? Only time will tell! Oh and we really hope your back is feeling better. You've got to remember to stretch before lifting all those folks. Really, take care of yourself, you have stories to tell!

Feel your pain. The little dolls get heavy too when you work with that many in a scene.

Hahaha!

Wow, boom, butt, burn! And everyone: Keep firearms away from Maisy. And Christina: Please polish that indecent makeup off Blythe's visage.
