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 Minimee Update & Talk Part 1

Dec 26, 2006

    1. Oh! I dind't know about this thread (I'm stupid -_-U). Anyway, I'm wating for two minimee heads: one of Gackt and one of Lee Joon Ki. Can't wait to see how they will turn out!! >w<
       
    2. Shin - oh cool! I can't wait to see them. :)
       
    3. oh good i'm not alone? *has 4 MSDs but no SDs to her name*

      Paperbag: Thanks hun! It's good to know that the dollshe body will match the minimee resin well. but man... that body on it's own is like 450 bucks... O_o
       
    4. omg Lee jun ki!!!! omg i cant wait to see him omg!! :D :D Im a big fan of him XD!!!
       
    5. Thanks for the pics!!! The BP head looks even better with eyes! I am dying to see one with a face-up. :D

      Its always wierd to see the minimee heads finally placed on bodies of people that I am familar with their fleshy selves. It takes some getting used to. :lol:
       
    6. XD Those pictures of BP are after I opened his eyes a bit too, so that 16mm size eyes would look good in him. XB;
       
    7. How did you open his eyes up? With just sanding?
       
    8. So the new SD Minimees could wear 12mm right?
       
    9. Yeah... the BP probably could wear 12 mm... He could definately wear 14 for sure.
      His eye holes were filed using a small needle file with a gentle curve to it, then smoothed out with 400 and 600 grit sand paper.
       
    10. i see, you just removed the eyelid folds. nice.
       
    11. I think the size of eyes a minimee has depends on the person. BP has tiny, squinty little eyes in real life so I figure that's why his sculpt had such small eye holes. My Yoshiki Minimee takes 16mm just perfectly like all my other SD dolls. So I mean, if you pick a celebrity that has smaller eyes, then the eye holes are more likely to be small and take smaller sized eyes, otherwise I would really assume that most Minimees will take 14 or 16mm.
      Denny would definitely be able to answer for sure... this is just my logic and thinking and it could be totally off. XD;;
       
    12. :sumomo: YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!! :sumomo:

      Waaahooooo I just called customs, and she said that my heads should either arrive today or tomorrow~!!!!!!
       
    13. Congrats!!! I can't wait to see your army of resin jrockers!
       
    14. My heads are on their way to my Post Office!!!
      Yours too BlackPaperBag...!!

      This is too exciting!!

      oh, I also ordered minimee haeds of MYSELF!!!

      But these heads that are coming today or tomorrow will keep me very occupied!!

      Spam City guys,,,watch out!!!
       
    15. Mine? Wha...? :? Haha, that can't be! We haven't gotten our preview photos yet
       
    16. I think she is confused with my post that you quoted :sweat
       
    17. Mine has also cleared customs! She might arrive today, or tomorrow at the latest.

      Can anyone make a recommendation to me on a realistic looking faceup artist for my minimee?

      Once she arrives, I'm going to order the eyes, and wigs for her (I've been waiting until I have her, so I know I get the exact correct size).
       
    18. Oops!!!
      Sorry Sabriell & BlackpaperBag!!
      I'm just so excited that I'm screwing everything up!!!
      Congrats, Sabriell!!
      Anyway, just got my heads and all I can say is wow wow WOW!!!

      I nearly drove off the road trying to pry the box open...

      I'm safely home now and I am pleased to report that:
      1. My heads WILL match my Domuya Fin Perennial body. The resin on minimee is slightly lighter BUT the same creamy tone. Once the head is painted and coated, there will be no difference.
      2. My heads will also match my Limwha Half Elf body. The resin on the Half Elf is slightly pinker BUT with subtle blushing, again, the difference will be hardly noticeable.
      3. The size of the heads are PERFECT! They look in perfect proportion on my Perennial Flexi body. I haven't put the minimee of Half-Elf since my biggest concern was the match on the Domuya body since I LOVE that body the best!
      4. The sculpt is incredible, just perfect. They captured Nastassja's features perfectly. The profile is just amazing with her high cheekbones, full lips and long elegant nose. I cannot wait to paint her!

      I will post my finding in lots of spams later on so everyone can see the resin matches as reference.

      Last BUT NOT LEAST:

      (((((((( DENNY AND HIS TEAM FULFILLED MY RESIN DREAM!!! )))))))

      THANK YOU SO MUCH!
      Your Faithful Patron,
      Steph C.
       
    19. :cheer Congratulations siam~! I cannot wait to see completed pictures!
       
    20. Congratulations iamsiam71!

      Thanks for the resin comparison thoughts. Now I'm kicking myself for not getting a second Flexi Perennial body while they were on sale. I'm hoping the Supia body will work though. With the size of the head, does it seem like this batch of minimee's need to go on a taller body, like the Perennial?

      *is freaking out, because my minimee could get delivered any minute*

      BTW, I did figure out what was up with my tracking. At the end of the number, there is supposed to be a KR, and mine just had an R. I tried doing a search adding the K, and found out where my package was!
