As you probably know by now, Emi is a plastic messy model. I am Bob, her photographer and typist. In Emi's own words:
Hi everyone. This is Emi. As I said yesterday I went to the dance club last night and brought my friend Tina this time. This club has a very cool feature - a clear pool in the middle of the dance floor, filled with corn syrup.
The night began when Tina showed up at my place and we took a cab to the club. I wore my sexy little golden dress (for the golden syrup) and Tina wore her expensive designer jacket over a pink sparkly halter top and a glittery mini skirt with a purse attached to the belt. Now, I planned to play in the syrup tub, but Tina had no idea it was even there.
Once we got in, I showed Tina the syrup pool. We started by gazing into the deep syrup, and then I reached over to feel it, and run my fingers through the thick and heavy stuff. I know Tina can be a brat at times, and last night was no exception as she suddenly pushed me into the tub.
Her shove was so hard, I practically flew over the edge, and did a perfect belly-flop into the syrup! It actually knocked the wind out of me, as it was so heavy and thick, but my body immediately sank in slow motion to the bottom of the ten or twelve inches of syrup. I was stuck! It took a lot of lifting before I could peel myself from the bottom to get up on my knees and turn around to face the laughing Tina. I could feel the weight of the syrup slowly pulling the top of my dress down. She actually looked shocked at what she had done, but obviously happy with herself for pushing me in!
This was where my own inner brat kicked in. I reached out a hand, begging Tina to help me out of my sticky situation, and reluctantly, she extended her hand, but you could see she already hated the idea of getting her hand covered in syrup. But I was going to cover a lot more than just her hand in syrup!
Sure enough, as I grasped Tina's hand firmly, as though preparing to pull myself out, she looked horrified at her hand, seeing and feeling the syrup ooze out from between our fingers. I bet she figured she could just wash her hand. I was about to make sure it wasn't just her hand that would be sticky!
Sorry guys, but my story must be continued, IF I get a few comments. My last few posts had one or even no comments, yet hundreds of views. If you want me to continue sharing my stories and pictures PLEASE let me know. I've gone to a lot of work to create these posts, so please show me some love. Thanks
This is Bob again. Emi is right. Please leave a comment if you are enjoying this series of her messy adventures. We'd love to continue providing free stories and photos, but not if there's no response. I realize Emi is just a doll, and perhaps not everyone's preference.
The amount of 'action' you capture in stills is pretty damn amazing Bob! I also really dig the lighting here!
I think another interesting thing you can capture with these small "models" is things like micro/macro play. Use size as another distinct medium. How many people would love to be able to play in a pie the size of a swimming pool. With Emi you can do that with ONE regular sized pie! She could also relax in a martini glass for instance, or be enveloped by a Jell-o monster. The ability to push reality because of her size I think is something neat you can play around with here.

Great ideas, Potatoman, and thanks for responding. I've been trying to work around the 'looks like a doll' aspect and I think I found a solution. I'm going to do Emi as a comic strip, in fact I just posted episode one, which incidentally features a giant champagne glass tub in the hotel room. I guess great minds think alike. I'll have to think of the 'giant pie' and other wild ideas such as your jello monster. One problem I have is with the way things behave at normal size as compared to mini. Jello breaks into smallish pieces, but with mini work, they might look too large, and not stick well. Something as simple as a water drop looks to be an inch across on a mini. But I think I'll toy around more (pun intended) and see how well the comic strip is received. Personally, I like it because you can't really tell if it's a drawing or a photo or if it's real or a doll.
I really love seeing Emi getting messy. At first, I didn't know what to think of you at first but now I am searching the forums for your photo stories. Please continue sharing your adventures!
