1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Shirou

Maker:
Volks
Head Sculpt:
Shiro Tachibana - After School Edition
Skintone:
NS
Body:
SD13
Sex:
Male
  • Face-up artist(s):
    Volks (enhanced by me)
    Date of acquisition:
    4/2019
    Reason for choice:
    Shirou was my second doll. I got my first (a DD) from Volks in Kobe while I was on vacation. Once I got home and had a chance to do some more research on dolls I decided to get another. I wanted to get a resin doll and got an amazing deal on an unopened Shiro fullset. I thought he was adorable when I first saw him and couldn't pass up the offer.
    Best Points:
    Definitely the face sculpt. I don't like all of the younger Volks boys, but Shirou looks great especially with the additional face sculpting makeup and more vivid eye makeup. I also switched out the wig with something that suits him better. Volks has some great wigs, but the one that came with him isn't one of them.
    Worst Points:
    He doesn't pose very well. I might change his lip color to something slightly warmer and more neutral too. I don't really care for the glossy pink lips that are common even for the boys with the Volks face-ups.
    The makeup is harder to see in these pics. I'll get some more soon once I set up my studio lighting. 20200726_190334.jpg
  • Eyes:
    Lavender Glass 18mm - Default
    Wig:
    Short brown - unknown maker (got in a lot)
    He's currently wearing some parts from a Muse Doll outfit (I have some of the other parts on my DDB) with some Volks jeans I picked up in Japan (they're a darker wash than what I found on the US site). He's wearing the black leather belt that came as part of his fullset.
  • Offsite roleplay:
    This doll's character is not available for offsite roleplay.
