Thank you so much mwillbury and DrDalek6.   :wave:  I've learned some techniques about photography here in PF and members like AgeOwns.  The hardest part is using a tripod when you have limited space to work with, it's practically Cirque de Soleil level of contortions just to click the shutter  ;D

Here's some more customs I created while waiting for parts from my DS order and I was getting antsy waiting for it to arrive so I just fiddled around with extra ladies I have from the Duke and Duchess set and the wedding set.  These are aristocrats in macaron colors.

These are a group of more soberly-dressed ladies in daytime outfits.  My little court jester, Payaso, can't help but photobomb this group to shake things up.

A few decades later...Lord Byron and Lady Caroline Lamb start their scandalous affair, full Regency style.

Lord Byron  ;D Such awesome pictures, dresses, hairdoes and background too by the way. I hope there's much more to come.

Great ones, the really big hair of the lady in green I especially like. Looks very Playmobil correct

The Regency couple is fantastic.  :o

I also like your 18th century customs very much. They show once again how one specific part (the hair piece) would allow to create most of these from the already available princesses. Of course I'd prefer to have all your hairdos and klickies as DS available parts.  :)
@geobra: Thanks a lot! :-)

Thank you everybody  :wave: for your kind words and very valuable feedback.  Henry TY indeed, and I too wish Playmobil would make more civilian 18th century people and subject matter though I understand if they feel this is too narrow a subject matter and not profitable enough.  Still it would be nice for the pirates and redguards to have people and towns to protect yes?

I have been remiss in thanking tonguello for his hair ideas in his medieval ladies thread that I shamelessly copied.  So TY very much and shout out!

There has been already a set of travelling acristocrats belonging to the pirate theme a long time ago. This would be the occasion to put one or two of those hairs. :-)
