The Hunks at 3Studs Ranch!

Me too, Ceej.  I was getting really depressed about it.

Farewell, Doc...

Doc was my first doll. Well my first full sized male doll anyway. He was of my creation, a fabric body, silicone hands and feet and a custom cloth face.
We started drifting apart over a year ago. We had multiple separations during that time period, to see if the spark would come back, but it did not. So last night, we both decided to part ways and say goodbye.
As with any relationship ending, I did cry some and I am quite melancholy today, leaning on Larry the most, followed by Lance, Landon and Colt. Today was a busy day, with errands to be run and chores to be done. But now that the day is coming to a close, I am feeling sad again.
But why hold onto something that no longer brings you joy?
I'll get over him eventually, but today is not that day.

Goodbye Doc, thanks for the memories.

I KNEW it!!! It was YOU! 

We meet on yet another forum. I'm digging Colt's new look. As usual, you do good work. Great to see you.

[Ceej]

That's so sad, but I'm glad you have the others to give you joy.

[DG]

Thank you, Begog. Yep!  I am working on moving my way over here permanently. I am glad you like Colt’s new look. He is one handsome doll, for sure!  I sure am glad to see you again as well.

Thank you, Ceej. I feel like things are changing here and I am not sure if I like it or not. There’s a lot of fog in my head and heart and I am trying to get clear.

I just try to stay as neutral as possible and not burn bridges. I got friends on multiple forums, some of which are only on those forums. Unless management pisses me off, the account might as well stay active. Never know when you might want to return for some reason.

[DG]

I hear ya.

My husband and I are in the process of turning the dining room into a spare bedroom / doll room / photography room.  Colt is the first to enjoy the new area and this morning I FINALLY got around to doing his first official photo shoot!
 

[Ceej]

Ahh sweet!

I see he's pointing his approval to you        

Nice work 

[DG]

Thank you, Ceej!  Yeah, he pointed, aimed and fired!  I got it good after the photo shoot.  Yay me!
But my dumb ass decided to get him into the bed and out of the bed and that was not a good idea...

DG,

     If I scroll through these picture fast enough, it's  like watching a movie! Nice set! 

[Dewyn]

Very nice series !

[DG]

Thank you, Noq and Dewyn.  I'm thinking Colt needs a fully nude photo shoot....

[DG]

Wow, it has literally been forever and a day since I last posted in this thread.  Damn.
Well, I guess I can get you all up to speed then.
Doc came back and we are now stronger and closer than ever.  He is back to being my #1 stud.
He also brought back Dorian (who has a new fabric body, which is taller), who had left back in 2021, plus a new fabric brother, Tristan, who received a foot upgrade, in which I exchanged his fabric feet for silicone ones, like Doc has.  Right now, I plan to keep his original vinyl hands.  Dorian still has cloth feet at the moment. 
Lance moved out and went to go live with L3fty/L3ft Nut, in late January.
Larry and Landon now live downstairs and they are enjoying it immensely.  They are going to need wardrobe changes soon and I'm still deciding what I want them to wear next.

I recently turned 40, and I took Dorian with me to a local art museum, where we thoroughly enjoyed strolling (well, he was in a wheelchair) through the gallery, looking at the paintings and commenting on what we did and didn't like about them.  I got some culture in, which was nice, and it was nice to have him there with me.  We got a few awkward looks from some other patrons, but I also had a sign on him about him being an emotional support companion for one with severe anxiety / PTSD and for no one to touch or take photos of him, but other than that, it was actually very nice.

I also got some new, walnut suit hangers for their tuxes/business suits and have been moving them over to the new hangers, which work quite well.  I also was able to pick up some new silk ties for them, in black, white and red.  I still need to find some burgundy ones.

The UberEats/DoorDash doll dates have ceased for now.

I also rearranged the room, yet again, LOL.

DG,

     I remember being 40 ... just barely! (71 now.) Taking a doll out in public is always a challenge. Now that I live in a 'second floor'* apartment with no elevator, those days are behind me, too. As out of shape as I am now, even lifting Feodora to change her clothes is a dangerous occupation. I dropped her last November during a wardrobe change, and it took me two solid hours to get her back on the doll stand.

     An art museum is a great place to take a doll, since they are works of art. It sounds like the guys' wardrobe is expanding! If your guys are like our girls, watch your credit card!

*  'Second floor' is a bit of a misnomer. The 'first floor' is below grade.
