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.

Darak Doll 40cm Mini Discussion Part 1

Dec 18, 2012

    1. Haha, we ordered the same two girls then! Yes, the make-up is much less dramatic in real life- maybe some editing on the website? Like the lips are redder and the eyeshadow darker. I had hoped they would do the request as they did a fantastic job on my Claire adding the freckles and darkening the lips... I still love her though. Did you also get the B body?

      I do love the Semy make up. She has such a sweet face. I was also so happy with the eyes they had as their defaults. So perfect.

      I look forward to seeing your Semy! Did you get the face-up B too? What plans do you have for Hera?
       
    2. Awww, my cutie is here!!!!! I'm in love, she's so beautiful!

      Well here a pic/collage of her in the nude and with simple poses, but she can do more than that, her posing is incredible and so graceful!!!!

      I don't have a name for her yet, but I know how she'll turn out, I just need to find time for her faceup and all the rest... sewing her clothes wouldn't be bad, either but I have to admit, I really love her in the nude, she's so graceful!

    3. Ahhh congrats Blablette <3 She is so lovely in tan. I LOVE their bodies, my girls (especially with the body blushing) are soo beautiful nude. The posing is insanely good right? I think the only thing I need now from Darak-i are different hand positions. But now I'm just being picky :P

      What are your plans for her face? Remys are so cute <3
       
    4. Awww, yes, their posing is a dream!!!!! They have such graceful bodies, too! <3 <3 <3
      And the Darak tan is so yummy-chocolatey!!!!

      Here another pic (edited, she's less chocolatey in this one...):

      [​IMG][/url]New girl in town! by blablette1, on Flickr[/IMG]

      I have the idea to give her an elegant glamourous faceup. Although I can picture her well as a teenage girl, I'd like her to be an elegant, classy grown up woman. I see her in lots of vibrant colours with a slight 70's/disco feel.
       
    5. Oh wow, she would look amazing as an elegant and vibrant 70s lady! I love the idea so much <3
      They are really versatile sculpts as they can do young and older face-ups very well. Most Remys are quite young so it'll be exciting to see an older version :)
      In my girls, I feel Hera is definitely the older sister! I am hoping to take more pics this weekend of them, they are so enthralling, I can barely stop looking at them.

      Was the box amazing??
       
    6. Oooh I love the tan! It is beautiful! Well, that may be just the push I need to finally order one of these lovelies....
       
    7. [MENTION=52679]Animethemed[/MENTION] I've only seen Darak-i do tan for events, but I've also heard someone say if you ask sometimes they will do it for you at a different time (this was in the tiny thread). If you could pick a Darak-i in tan, who would you have?

      Here's my latest picture of Hera (Nissa). Her half-lidded look is so cool, she seems so in control xD

    8. Oh, my, yes the box is great!!! It's padded, and she was in a lovely blanket, too! I took pics, I have to upload them to flickr first...

      And Nissa looks so cool indeed!!!!
       
    9. Oh wow, I'm so jealous >.< I sort of want to buy one just to have one. I feel at least one of my three Darak-i girls should have one haha! But I think the shipping is quite expensive D: Is it very heavy?

      Is it the event pillow? Darak-i forgot to include mine but they're sending them now so everything is good!

      Here is Semy (Kestrel), I love her eyes. Does anyone know where Darak-i's eyes are from? They're fantastic @@

    10. Ahhh, yes the box is a bit heavy, but as I remember shipping was not more expensive than for just a doll, must check again.
      What's nice is that it has a handle and a strap can be fixed and it's a carrying bag, then.

      Oh, my I still haven't uploaded the pics...
       
    11. I think shipping was still standard for you because it was an event gift, a while ago they decreased shopping prices when they switched to the default box.
      My DC Queena came back from the spa so could take a pic of all three of my MSD girls :D

      Have you started work on Remy's face-up yet?
       
    12. Awww, your three lovelies are so cute! <3


      As for my Remi's faceup, I might have some time tomorrow to start on it, I hope... ^_^
       
    13. Ah I saw your preparation pics, exciting!

      Today I got some new slim MSD clothes from the market place here, so instantly tried them all on Semy (Kestrel), Hera (Nissa) has the corset on which takes forever to put on and off >.>

      Anyway, I love it all! (Also, look how well she stands with heel feet!)

      [​IMG]New clothes by kamiakeller, on Flickr
       
    14. Awww, she's cute, and I wouln't have guessed she has heeled feet on. Well, these girls pose like champs!!!!
       
    15. They really do! I am so in love <3 How's Remy coming along?

      I won a pearl necklace in a giveaway from Tiny Jewels Shop on etsy and they look great on Nissa!

    16. Awww, I did a lot of sewing these last days, so Remy got pushed into the background.
      I've also noticed that the wig I thought would fit her is too big and I'm hesitating to give her another from my huge pile, and give her another style than the 70's inspired one. The wig she'll end up with will also influence the faceup a bit, I think... aaaaaah! Decisions decisions... ^_^

      Nissa is really sexy in your picture, in an elegant way. ;-)

      Edit with a picture of my Remy who still has no name, but now she has a faceup and hair:

    17. Ahhh she is SO cute! I love what you've done with her and those freckles on her chest and neck look so nice too :) btw which bust size is that???

      Kestrel got a new wig last week... she looks so sweet with blonde hair!

      [​IMG]Kestrel by kamiakeller, on Flickr
       
    18. Awww, thank you Kamia!!! Now all my girl needs is a name, golly! ^_^

      She has the middle bust, and she is still half-nekkid... I've put her a bloomer short on, and she'll need a top, but the darak body is so cute, it doesn't matter! ^_^

      Kestrel is adorable in this blonde wig, she's very delicate like this.
       
    19. Yes! Naming is always hard. I knew these girls were going to be Kestrel and Nissa, but I didn't know who would be who until they arrived.
      Ah yes, Nissa has middle and Kestrel has small. You are right, they have beautiful bodies. I have a few clothes for these girls but most of the time they're nekkid too! Can't cover up all that body blushing!!

      Nissa seems to be older in the darker wig and the half-lidded look (both wigs are from dollwig)

      [​IMG]Nissa by kamiakeller, on Flickr
       
    20. Aww, my Remy has whispered me her name: it's Zaïda!

      Here she is with some clothes on:

      [​IMG][/URL]Zaïda by blablette1, on Flickr[/IMG]


      And yes, you're right Nissa looks older and wiser with the black wig. ^_^
