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.

☆~~ Granado Doll Discussion Part 18 ~~☆

Oct 22, 2019

    1. @AntarelNefertili oh, you bring up a good point in regards to the color matching! I will need to do some blushing in the shoulder area for the scars where Bucky's metal arm connects to his flesh anyway, so I might as well add some blushing to the neck area to help blend everything together. I'm super excited though.

      In terms of shipping though... I actually had most things come in pretty quickly and without trouble. Maybe the Christmas backlog is finally clearing up?


      I just hope that the wig I got my Uriel head fits, though going off of my other heads that have the same circumference, it might end up being a little loose... Oh well, the black baseball cap should keep it on. :XD: (It's an 8/9 Monique Gold Label wig).
       
    2. Granado doesn't offer clothes right?
       
    3. Sometimes, when full sets come out you can buy the head and the outfit without buying a body.
       
    4. Ohh!! Ok thank you!
       
    5. @Silver_Unicorn297 Petite-headed Granado guys could be very picky with wigs, oh boy. I pretty much already gave up buying pre-made wigs for my Michael after two wigs ended up being too bulky (despite already having sewn darts at the back to somehow make them fit better). At least Bucky would have some headwear to help him! :P
       
    6. Question for anyone who happens to have the Zen body. . . what is the actual shoulder width - with arms? I never quite trust the company measurements because there is not a standardized place where they take said measurements like when you're sewing.
      Also! Bonus points if anyone has a Dollshe Mystic body to compare it to!
       
    7. @AntarelNefertili Ah, yeah, I've dealt with petite heads before. -stares at Impldoll Azalea- I actually had a lot of fun making my Beast's wig, so I might eventually make one for Bucky from scratch down the road to ensure the perfect fit--once I decide what fibers I want to use. Also, thank you for the tip on adding the darts. I have an old, semi-damaged wig that I might test it out on.

      Also... I think someone asked about clothing for the Granado body? I don't know of any places to shop, aside from Etsy and places like Clover Singing and ACBJD... but I did fine a really helpful tutorial on YouTube for drafting patterns!
      Also, some dealers, like Clover Singing and Guluup (sp?) on Etsy are really good about answering questions for your doll if you are stuck between two sizes.

    9. @SteamWitch hard to decide if I like Nox better as a blond or brunet. :D
       
    10. Has Granado ever re-released a doll? I really want Noah but I dont have the extra money right now...
       
    11. I know what you mean, he is wonderful in both. :love
       
    12. @_doll_ingg_ they often do, but not always. Sorry that's not much help! :sweat
       
    13. Phew! I'm glad to hear that! Hopefully Noah does comeback and I'll be able to get him then
       
    14. Oh my gosh, I just got the best email ever today! Crocus Lee finished the faceup on my Uriel and he turned out amazing! Ahhhhhh!
      I'm at work now, but I'll post pictures when I get on lunch! So excited!

    15. Is the V11 head still available to order? Or does it go by another name on the Granado website?
       
    16. Sorry about the wait guys... but here is the custom faceup that Crocus Lee did on my Uriel! I asked for it to resemble Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes. I already knew that he would turn out gorgeous, but he turned out even better than what I could ever have imagined. I'm so in love. :D

    17. @Silver_Unicorn297 You're Uriel is looking smoking hot! Wow, the face-up looks great! By the way, is anyone planning to get 75Adagio body? I love the look of that body so much, but I'm new to Granado dolls. How is the posing ability of Granado Dolls in general?

    18. @MJKKJM thank you! I literally fangirled over him for several minutes--and still do each time I see him. They asked me if they could post the pictures on social media (to which I said YES!) so expect to see some Uriel as Bucky Barnes/Sebastian Stan spam soon. Still waiting on him to ship though.

    19. Hello!
      I'm trying to find some information on head size and resin color.

      First off, is anyone able to take some pictures of the 70cm Galileo head by Soom SG heads or similar sizes? I want to know how small the head runs.

      Also, is the NS or white skin a close match to Dikadoll normal pink skin, T&D normal pink skin or newer Iplehouse NS?

      Thanks, guys! Any help is greatly appreciated! :aheartbea
