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.

DiM (Doll in Mind) Mini Discussion Part 5

Nov 17, 2016

    1. Thread has been pretty quiet since mid-May!

      I have had my DIM "dreaming" Laia head for awhile. I initially put her on a Doll Chateau K-01 body (to share), but I really liked the sculpting on the K-18, so I ordered one. The body came in last Friday, and I'm totally in love with how proportionate it looks. She also has some curves, and I really like how her waist size is close to her bust size. Nothing I made for her on the previous body fits, but I am excited to make some new clothes for her!

    2. My Flowne head finally got here and I’m so in love! I put her on my real skin JID body since it’s the only one I have that fits her right now, so don’t mind the terrible resin match. I’m so excited to give her a faceup, and I’m incredibly happy that I made an order before they closed.

    3. Congrats on your new arrival, @momo6548! I like her pretty green olive eyes.

      Did you order her during the closing sale? If so, when did you order her? It seems like a handful of people purchased during that sale but haven't heard anything yet.

    4. Yep! I ordered her on April 11. My friend ordered a Larina the day before me and hers got here earlier this week.

    5. Aww, she is so cute @momo6548 <3 Love her eyes. I kinda wish I had gotten her too, was wibbling over her for a while, but was distracted and sad for missing out on Jullis.

      Ooh, just checked my account because of the arrivals and my Ace is "before shipping" now, can't wait! I ordered April 12.
       
    6. I also ordered April 12 and I just received a shipping confirmation and tracking number a few days ago! and my Eyes half closed Larina should be arriving in the next few days!
       
    7. Congrats on all the shipping notices!! I hope you guys get your dolls/heads swiftly and safe and sound!

    8. I ordered April 12th and Status has changed to Item processing but no shipping yet. I ordered multiple heads so I'm expecting it to take a bit longer though, especially if he's doing heads by batches. :) Excited to get them home still!

    10. My Benetia's finally got their bodies~! Went with the DC Kid body for my vampire, Lydia and the DZ B45-012 for my space oni, Honey, inspired by Lum from Urusei Yatsura. Luckily the Kid body isn't super yellow, not a perfect match but it's not super noticeable. The pink skin is a pretty good match for DIM~ I've been sick so haven't had much time to work on them, but I've started Lydia's wig cap, and am learning to knit some legwarmers for Honey~

      I got the DZ B45-017 body in this order too, so I'll pop some ref pics of both heads on the DZ bodies in the hybrid thread in case anyone's interested~

      edit and I've just realised there is no DIM hybrid thread lol, here's the pic anyway: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48245303431_5e4716946b_o.jpg

    11. Such cuties! I’m planning on getting a DZ body for my Flowne head, and I was wondering which is which in your reference picture you linked? Also what would you say are the overall differences between the two bodies?
       
    12. @momo6548 Thanks~! The left is the 012 and the right is 017. Overall it's mostly aesthetic differences, they both pose really nicely, and seem able to hold all the same poses. I'd say the 017 is a bit steadier on her feet though, maybe because the 012 has pretty skinny ankles aha. I'm not the biggest fan of the look of the double joints on the 012 and much prefer the ones on the newer body, but I really love the curves on the 012, especially the hips (which look a bit smaller in this pic than in person). The 017 is slimmer overall, and a bit taller. Both are gorgeous though~ Hope that helps :)
       
    13. I've ordered a Doll Leaves body to share between various WS heads I've got, one being my WS Larina. I was worried it would be too creamy but I think it might be a good match after seeing a resin comparison. Might end up being my WS Larina's permanent body, if it matches (otherwise I'm buying a WS Resinsoul Mei it will work for).
       
    14. Oooh nice~ From the ones I've seen on insta, DIM/Doll Leaves makes a gorgeous hybrid~ I'm kind of kicking myself for not picking up a Larina when I could aha

    15. There's still some left on their official Taobao dealer. I'm sure the head would come up second hand often, though not sure about it in WS.

      I have a boy in NS but had to get a WS to make into a girl.
       
    16. Oh that's tempting~! I have no idea how to use Taobao though, I had a quick look but couldn't find anything :sweat Did you have a link to the dealer?

    17. I'd love to have a link to the dealer as well!
       
    18. I purchased a Half Closed Eyed Larina head during DiM's closing sale on a whim and I'm so glad I did! I'm totally in love with her little blank face already! Her name is Theo, and she's going to be a tomboyish best friend for my only other non-fantasy style msd.

      I got her in NS and I was surprised by how pink she is! I'm thinking I might get an Angell Studio body for her, as they offer a few pink resin options.
       
    19. The DIM Hybrid thread is called DIM-Heads, Bodies, Comp. I can't figure out how to post links or I would, sorry.
       
    20. DIM Flowne/Narsha hybrid with new 14mm Whoisuralice Blue Grey urethane eyes. The eye colors are great for her.
