Iris

Face-up artist(s):

me

Date of acquisition:

1/29/10

Reason for choice:

I saw one other owner ever with this doll and fell immediately in love. She became my grail doll. I posted a WTB thread and about a year and a half later, a DOA member messaged me alerting me to a FS thread for her head from another member.

Best Points:

her haunting, strong, simple face sculpt.

Worst Points:

This particular style of old Volks body is not structurally the best. I cannot get this girl to pose for anything. She is wired and sueded by a "professional", and she can still barely sit, and can't stand.

Eyes:

Volks 20mm Goldenrod eyes

Wig:

9-10 inch brunette wig

Name story:

Iris is the name of a short story by Hermann Hesse. My Iris has a lot of the same characteristics of the story's character.

Offsite roleplay:

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

She is strong, independent, and very concerned about doing the right thing, sometimes to her detriment.
