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. Thanks for posting the Sleeping Cloud head, Denny! I'd been looking for more BJD style Minimees. Love love.

      I think that maybe from the profile/three quarter view his cheekbones are a little too hard for Cloud? I think he's beautiful though, and that is such a minor detail. I also agree that his brow line could be softened, it is knitted a little and makes him look as if he a bit tense.

      Like Lunameth said, I'll be buying a MiniMee body once he's released as a gift head!
       
    2. Hi All,

      The sleeping Cloud is being modified on his Eyebrow and the lips~
      I will show pictures soon when it's done.

      [Minimee preview is being quick]
      Please note that it doesn't mean we didn't work study much although the preview turns out very quickly.
      Sometimes it can be done in a week depends on our schedule ^^
      Just let you guys know that every single minimee order is being carefull studied and made with our best effort ^^

      Thank you

      Denny
       
    3. Denny, I was wondering if it was possible to order a Minimee with about 65% realism from drawings? About halfway between realistic and BJD style, I would say.

      Thank you!
       
    4. I, erm, finished painting up my JD head today!
      Please excuse the bad lighting, my terrible camera, his wonky eyes and the fact that I had no real piratey things to dress him in!

      It's my second ever face-up and I'm really proud of it so be gentle, thanks~:sweat
       
    5. Ha! I guess I'm gonna wait until that gift head is available before I order hide's body. >D>D>D>D I like that head a LOT! O_O That's amazing Denny! I always wanted a sleeping head. X3

      Kuru-- Holy cow man! That facial hair is to DIE for!
      Awesome job indeed!! <3<3<3
       
    6. Oh...in that case, we can try but..it's hard as you know.
      So perhaps you need a modification service after the preview ^^
      But we can do it..I think

      Detailed requirements would be help.

      Thanks

      Denny
       
    7. I think there's going to be a lot of people ordering minimee bodies when the sleeping cloud is the gift head! :) Gorgeous work as always! :) I kinda like the "guess who this minimee is" questions... ;)

      @ kuru - WOW!! Cap'n JAAAAAAAAACK! You're going to have to tell me how you did the facial hair!
       
    8. That's AWESOME! I can't wait to get my JD but I don't think I could do a captain jack as good as that so maybe I'll shoot for Edward scissorhands.

      Thanks freakin' cool! :aheartbea
       
    9. WOW! He looks great! That is no one else but Captain Jack! You did a wonderful job! (Im really excited, now! I've got my JD head coming, too!)

      But, I have a question. I've seen, on the forum, people talking about how big some of the heads have been. Is the JD head also very large? Does it look okay (proportioned) to the Minimee body?
       
    10. Kuru! Great job! I just love the facial hair what a nice touch :)

      Boy you could probably put him on a girl body and make him Kate Moss huh :D JK

      I adore Katie :) Now *THAT* would be a fantastic MiniMee :D Weeeeee
       
    11. OK so I bought a DollZone body for my Barbra.....Um why didnt I know these things were massive? Gee wiz she went from being this shy little frail bobble head Barbra on a CP body to the towering MECHA-STREISAND from South Park! ha ha ha ha
      But seriously she is Ginormous......great hands though :)
      I got a Bobobie body coming too so we will see how that goes......In the meanwhile what am I gonna do with that body??? AND its BW....none of my other heads are BW.....hmmm
      "what to do, what to do"
       
    12. Oh my...Denny, the sleeping Cloud head is gorgeous- I'm such a massive fan of sleeping heads and this one is simply amazing! :D

      Kuru, what a wonderful job you've done with your Johnny head!! PS: Gotta show the picture of your Johnny head to my friend who's obsessed with mister Depp- maybe that will get her interested in BJDs^^
       
    13. Aww thanks everyone. I'll post him up in the gallery once I've made him some pirate clothes, and sorted out his wonky face :sweat!

      His facial hair is just painted on for the most part, but the beard is two strands of wig held in place with white tac that I painted black. The acrylic holds the fur in place pretty well.

      edit: I'd say his head is a great size, the only problem being I think the minimee neck is a little too long, or the hole in the bottom of his head too small? Not sure. If you sand that down a bit there's no problem.
       
    14. OMG!! Sleeping Cloud head as a gift!! *dies*
       
    15. [Modification is completed]

      Recently, the minimee service is being very fast ever ^^

      here is the modification of Cloud's Sleeping(Dreaming) head.
      What do you think ?

    16. I'm always lurking this thread, but I want to say that you're amazing, Denny!
      All the sculpts so far are simply gorgeous!

      Congratulations on your amazing skills ^^
      Please keep amazing us!
       
    17. I really like this head ... alot!
       
    18. Oooh...Cloud....you know, my fiancee loves cloud and even though he dosn't like BJD too much he is interested :XD: (He likes collecting models more) A few things he said could be a bit different:

      His jawline is more...I don't know how to say maybe sharp? ref photo: http://www.ffrepublic.com/pics/198-dslfimmjvn.jpg

      And his chin, it's more square not pointed?

      http://usera.imagecave.com/unknownasj/Cloud-Advent-Children.gif

      Hope that helps.... :) But he looks so good...I want that head....I've bought my body....ok...Sai might need a minimee body too... :lol:
       
    19. It probably all depends on which reference pictures Denny was using. If they were from Advent Children I'd say you were right, but if he was using offical artwork from FFVII and Square his face was drawn differently than it was animated.

      [​IMG]

      His face was rounder and the his chin/jaw very pointed.
      Now that I know who it is. I see a very strong likeness.
       
    20. +_+ ah it's clouuddd~ <3 <3 *grabby hands* xD like someone said before he WOULD fit Draco pretty well..prehaps if i can't afford to get a minimee done of Tom Felton (because i don't think enough people would be interested for a group order...?) that cloud may end up my make-shift draco :'''D
