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.

Bishonenhouse dolls!

    1. @kurogane you'll just have to be careful to try and find slimmer stuff, I'll get measurements for all of my crew so you'll know what works and won't if you compare companies. =D

    2. @P-Aei Thank you! I'm used to clothing fails, so measurements are great to have.

    3. I got my kit today!!!! It came with the sideways smirk face, the grumpy/frustrated face and the confused face. I'm gonna email Donn about the normal smily face 'cause I want all Mira's faces :D

      I still have to put her together. Think I underestimated how difficult it is to put a kit together. The last time I did, was nearly 10 years ago (a Soom Uyoo kit). I'm such a fuss that I've too afraid to cut the elastic out of fear of cutting it too short XD

    4. Thank you very much for your reply, it will help me a lot! I will surely contact Donn!

    5. @Eiko82 Congratulations! I understand about cutting the elastics. I've restrung bjds and always measure twice, cut once, lol. Still, getting the tension right is tricky. I guess practice makes it easier, but...that's something I try to avoid. :mwahaha

    6. @Eiko82 Oh my gosh congrats! I'd mark out the elastic to cut it, though Donn usually send an inch or two extra I think! I can't wait to see her! All of her face plates are great! =D You might wanna suede her upper body joint too with some hot glue, my Mira likes to arch her back. (Which is good because then she usually stays balanced xD But sometimes I want a different pose.) That's the only part I sueded. =D Can't wait to see her!

      Edit:
      @BeeryCherry
      Awesome! I hope you're able to get in contact with them. =D Definitely stick around here until you can get a doll of your own. I'd be happy to answer any questions about owning a kit.

      Edit 2:
      Here are Steve Measurements on a picture! (Vince's are the same except his upper arm circumference.)

    9. Alrighty, putting her together was more challenging than I thought. Tbh I still have to sand down some of her seams. I have no experience with this. She also needs her faceup but luckily, a friend is doing that for me.

      But for now, meet Kira!!!

      I love her grumpy face!!! I posted more photos in the Boxopening forum.

      Spade is really really cool! You might be able to snag one after Donn finishes the first pre-order. It usually opens up again. <:

    14. The amazing Severelysigune on Flickr did the faceup for my Bishonenhouse Mira. She brought my vision perfectly to life. It's exactly what I envisioned for my girl. Meet my girl, Kira. You can see more photos on Flickr.

    17. Thanks, I'm really happy with how she turned out. Can't stop admiring her.

      I asked Donn if he is making any other female characters and he said that he is. This is what he said :

      I have no idea what she looks like but I already know I want her XD

    18. OH MAN! I didn't know if he was going to be making anymore female dolls, looks like I'd better keep saving up if I want to own them all. That's so cool! I wonder what she'll look like, and if she'll have the same body as Mira...

      @kurogane Thank you!

      Also, for fans of Mira, Donn was offering both a finished doll and kit for $4+ patreon subscribers. I don't know if the Kit was bought, if not it'll pop up in his store today. (He posted this publicly on his tumblr so I think it's ok to mention here for potential Mira fans. =D)
      There are also other goodies he'll be offering up for discount to patreon subscribers as well.
      I wont say much else since it's Patron stuff, but if you're interested in BishonenHouse doll stuff, now is a good time to take a peek at the Patreon page. (The link is up above.)

    19. All of Donn's characters are amazing. I like them all :sweat.

      I'm saving like crazy in my Vince fund. Gotta be prepared in case one comes up for sale. You never know, lol.

    20. I know!! I assumed that Mira was gonna be his only female doll, given that we've seen no evidence of other female characters in Steve's work. But now I'm so curious to know what she looks like or what her role in the story is.
