Asleep Eidolon (AE Int'l) minis discussion part 2

Hey fellow AE mini fans~... I haven't been around in a while, I know. XD I've been stalking this thread a lot and just looking at everyone's pictures, haha. I haven't even gotten around to doing the body review I said I'd do, which is frustrating, but... life has an annoying habit of getting in the way.

I got some new clothes for my girl, which makes me happy. Her birthday was October 20th!!! I can't believe I've actually been in the hobby for over a year now....

 

Chocoang31, I love your Lemon! I was looking at Lemon when Cordelia stole my heart.

Elruesta, I think Shine is my favorite of the msd boys.

I spend many happy hours enjoying everyone's spam. Hours I should be spending sewing for my gang. They all need new clothes...


More of my Cordelia Jr., Elsbet:



I changed out her default 14mm eyes for some 12mm I borrowed from my daughter. For some reason her hands look really big in this picture.

 

Oh, she's beautiful! I love Cordelia Jr. I hope one day I'll be able to get her myself. I actually really like those 12mm eyes in her... I've been thinking about seeing how 12mm would fit my Coral. ^^ Sometimes the 14mm just seem too huge.

 

I definitely prefer the 12 mm eyes over the 14's Cordelia came with. My daughter suggested I go even smaller but I don't know about that. I also have some 13mm Eyeco soft glass eyes in another doll that I was thinking of trying for comparison. They seem to have more whites around the iris.

 

Finding the right eyes is always fun, isn't it? XD You'll have to share how the 13mm work if you try them! I need to mess around with some of the extra eyes I've got lying around.

 

I will definitely post a picture when I try them. It sometimes takes me awhile to find the right size and color of eyes and wigs for my dolls. Which would explain why I have so many extra... Luckily my two daughters have dolls so we often end up trading!

 

Can I ask how long you had to wait for your Asleep Eidolon doll to be made? The website I'm thinking if getting one through said they have an extremely long wait time, which makes me kind of nervous :S

 

Thanks Anarwyn n____n .. Your little girl is so beautiful !
Oh ~ I am using a 14 mm Mako Eyes for my girls and I find them great for them ^^ .. I also understand how long some dolls require to be complete! My both AE dolls were very hard to complete. They had lots of processing between wigs and once I got the right wig, I just knew which eye I want and that's it for them

 

LemonLime .. AE dolls should be ordered only from official dealers like MOC or the HK dealer. I also believe there is a UK dealer [think pink or something ^^;;]
But that's all I know for now, since I got my dolls last year. I am not updated on that information

 

lemonlime, my Cordelia was in stock so I did not have to wait. I bought her from Mint on Card, the US dealer; they often have some in stock. They also offer layaway for pre-orders, which is an option if you are uncomfortable paying the whole thing up front. They are really good about answering emails if you have any questions.

 

Well that always helps. Luckily for me, my best friend is in the hobby, so we're always swapping things, too.

 

Thank you Anarwyn and chocoang3l. I was looking at Mint on Card for ordering. I'm just worried about how long it would take if I pre ordered one. It'll be my first doll, I'll be so impatient to get it. It says on the AE doll pages that a pre ordered one can take a very long time... I guess as long as it's one I really want it will be worth the wait. *sigh*

 

Hello all! I'm currently in the process of closing a transaction for a Lemon girl here on the marketplace, so I thought I'd stop lurking and actually say hello to all of you lovely folks.

Anarwyn, your Cordelia Jr. is so cute. I really love that sculpt, but I don't see enough of them. Thank you for sharing her!

 

Thanks Daeriel, and congratulations on getting a Lemon! I had been considering a Lemon for a character of mine when I noticed Cordelia. Blueberry and Coral are my other favorite sculpts. Be sure and post pictures when you get her.

lemonlime, waiting is always the hardest part, especially for a first doll; for AE dolls it sounds like a longer wait than usual. I agree if it is the one you want most of all it would be worth it. Good luck; searching and deciding on the perfect doll is part of the fun!

 

Unfortunately, it can take quite some time... But I can tell you that if you know for a fact it's the one for you, it will indeed be worth it. Just out of curiosity, which sculpt are you looking at?

 

I'm new to doA and im dying to know which msd asleep eidolon is the cutest,
In your opinion thanks

 

Kind of a personal opinion. AE used to have a MSD doll name Yara and she is probably the cutest. I believe Yara is retired, though.

 

In my personal opinion? XD Coral and Cordelia Jr. ^^ I love, love, LOVE my Coral... and I think Cordelia Jr is the cutest. I hope one day I can have one of my own.

 

All the AE msd's are cute! It really is a matter of personal preference as to which is "cutest". Everyone's tastes are slightly different as to what eye, nose, mouth, cheek shape they like. Face-ups make a big difference as to how the doll looks also. I think it is amazing how the same sculpt can look so different depending on how it is painted. Blueberry seems like she is a popular sculpt with Lemon and Coral close behind. New ones come out all the time; my Cordelia is slightly newer. Of course, too me my Elsbet is the cutest because she is mine!

Speaking of Elsbet, this has been a busy week I haven't had time to play with her.
