I'm not what you'd call a ZZ Top fan, but "Sharp Dressed Man" just came to mind when putting these two in their sharp suits. :lol: The title is from the lyrics.

Warning: Shonen-Ai. Mostly implied, though, nothing racy. Also, my photostories tend to be hopelessly sappy. ;)

Apologies for the glare caused by the flash - non-flash photography is just not possible in my current apartment. Soon I'm getting a condo with much better lighting - yay. I also didn't realise the cardboard trifold I used for a backdrop was so shiny.

More info after the pics! Cross-posted to DoA.

Justin: Sometimes I wonder what it is he sees in me...

Image

Justin: His clothes are so refined and handsome. Just like him... This jacket smells like him too. Cologne, tobacco and something I can't really name...something uniquely his own.

Image

Andrew: Hello, my little one.
Justin: Ah...hello...
Andrew: I see you're wearing your hair down.
Justin: Should I tie it back?
Andrew: No - I like seeing it like this.

Image

Andrew: Can you hand me my jacket?
Justin: Here you go.

Image

Justin: Aren't you going to put it on?
Andrew laughs softly. "Should I? It's not very cool yet...the sun hasn't gone down."
Justin: ...well...I do like seeing you in it.
Andrew laughs again. "Very well. As you wish."

Image

Andrew: Come along. Let's go home.

Image

Justin: The warmth of my hand in his...that's home, to me.

Justin is a Doll in Mind Arno on a Domuya D-1 Flexi body. His faceup is by Serenia/Cup of Tea Esthetics. His body was dyed by myself. Wig: Leeke Bella in brown carrot (trimmed). Eyes: 14mm green-grey acrylics by Glib. Suit by Sadol, shoes from Dollzone.

Andrew is a LoongSoul Ivan in pink skin. He hasn't been sent out for a faceup yet - he probably will be next week! Wig from Dollzone (trimmed). Eyes from Dollmore. Suit by LoongSoul. Shoes by YuHao.

Justin and Andrew are characters of mine. Andrew is the 33-year-old warden of a prison in late nineteenth-century Glasgow, Scotland. Justin is his 26-year-old secretary. After events drew the two closer together, they became lovers.

Thanks for looking!

New photos of these two - I just didn't feel it was enough for a whole new thread.
I splurged on a Volks sofa. My dolls now have better clothes AND furniture than I do.

Cool sofa!! If I were going to buy anyone furniture that was super fancy, I'd get Ivan a throne. And not a porcelain one either. :-p

LOL. Now THAT'S something I've never seen in 1/3 scale, though! :lol:
