Crow

Face-up artist(s):

Bahh/Planet Nanop

Modifications artist(s):

BlackSheep (me)

Date of acquisition:

January, 2013

Provenance:

Bought him off of ebay, from someone who said they were not his first owner. I'm told he was a Soulmate Limited Edition.

Reason for choice:

Ren had been my grail since long before I got into the hobby. I saw him back in high school and instantly wanted one of my own.

Best Points:

His face, his durability. He stands like a champ, and he's yellowed VERY slowly.

Worst Points:

He IS old. He's got single joints and baby hands, and he can't pose very well.

Back before I got into the hobby, I'd wanted one of these dolls so badly, I was willing to pay someone I didn't know in Korea just to get me one. Unfortunately I then needed to use the money on other things, and years passed before I had enough for him again. Sadly, he'd long been discontinued. I was ready to put down the money for a completely different doll when, on a whim, I checked ebay. There was an almost-ended auction for the exact doll I was looking for, and I pounced. Crow was my first doll, and also my first project doll. He was filthy and damaged when I got him, so he's been cleaned, repaired, and modified (his head can be removed without restringing him now). I'll probably have him forever.

Eyes:

amber/gold glass 16mm

Black, Gold

Name story:

Character age:

???

Character gender:

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is not available for offsite roleplay.

Crow's an angel of the "infinite eyes and wings and fire" variety. Currently in human form for whatever reason, but his true shape is probably something unimaginably surreal. He collects cups.
