Spade’s clothing order from TTYA came. So sad, nothing fits. I got regular msd sized pants and tank top. Both fit my ChicLine, who is a 40cm small msd. What? Ugh! These clothes wouldn’t even fit a slim msd! I just don’t know...So back to looking. Spade, I will not fail you!
I am sorry your clothing choices didn't work out. It's hard when it's a whole new size. Hopefully will find stuff once mine arrives to try stuff here.
I went to Alice’s Collections and found a white tank top and some pants in the same color of brown. They are supposed to be standard msd, so I am going to see if they fit. So another few weeks of waiting, lol. Since they both were under $35, I was able to get air mail shipping. I think this time will work as I tried on a pair of AC msd shorts on Spade and they fit.
These guys can be a challenge to find clothes for. I hope that your next order will work out @kurogane In honour of Pro BJD Artists Day, James and Kira have something to say. I've tried explaining them that threats aren't the best way to get your message across but they mean well.
How long has it been since I paid of Spade I wonder... I'm so glad someone here has him! Share all the photos! Sorry the clothes aren't fitting right for him, BishonenHouse friends can be tough to shop for lol. Here's Nails being adorable, we're both tough guys who like cute things I love him so much:
I find dressing dolls very difficult. Its my least favorite aspect of the hobby. I have to face it, I’m not the fashion maven I hoped I was. My poor dolls!
I have learned over the years that most dolls need only one pair of pants, a couple pairs of shoes, and like four shirts. Everything else is either over doing, and just a waste of money. I admire people who work on a doll to get everything down to the eyes, wig, and clothes just perfect. But my guys are a lot like me. Jeans, t-shirts and comfortable shoes.
Here is a picture of Spade's handmade hat. I used some faux suede fabric and my own pattern. It turned out pretty good! Spade’s hat! by SD Hampton, on Flickr
Happy Thanksgiving to all us American fans of Bishonen House boys and girls. Have safe travels if you going out for any of those deals today, Friday, Saturday or even Sunday. Hugs from my two guys to all of yours.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! @aernath yes, I do have some of the fabric left and can make another hat. The next one should be even better as I know what to do. The first one was ‘I hope this works!’ . Also, SartoriaJ on Etsy has a leather Bush hat for sale that should fit Spade. I looked up the measurements and they are the same as Spade with the wig. The hat is meant for msd Iplehouse FID women. I keep looking at it, but mine is good enough.
I decided to do something a little crazy for the last doll meet of the year - I pulled Spade out of his body bag, spent three hours cutting off the worst of the flashing and leftover sprues, and strung him (super loosely because his neck needs a lot of reinforcing). He's got so much attitude already. I'm honestly in love. WP_20171217_13_14_46_Pro by Liz, on Flickr
