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. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard at all finding an artist around here. I know there are several in this thread even, myself included. Is it a certain look that you want, and you just don't have pictures to show it?
       
    2. Yes I have this problem with a female head.
      I know what I want her to look like, but I can´t find the right pictures to show Denny.
      Very frustrated, cause I would love to own a mature looking female and not so sweet looking, like most of the female BJD´s.



      At Denny: How long does it usually take for the heads to arrive at their owner's house??
      Cause I would like to take some days off to welcome them here haha XD
       
    3. We are having a holiday right now and I will back to office next Thursday.

      Some of minimees are arrived but I don't know whose minimee they are and more will be coming in 10 days.

      So I don't know exact time of shipping yet due to I am at home right now.

      Anyway, it won't take so long after holiday.

      Thanks for waiting

      Denny
       
    4. Thank you Denny, please enjoy your holiday!!:aheartbea ;)

    5. Don't feel guilty about asking for modifications if you don't think it's just the way you want it. No point receiving it and then having the 'wrong' bits bug the hell out of you till you have to send it away to a modder or feel as though you have to live with the imperfections always glaring out at you. You're paying for the modification service anyway, so you might as well get it all done before it's cast~

      I asked for my head to be modified because I found some parts were just not similar to the original person, and I'm very glad I did because I love him now :aheartbea This is, at the end of the day, a job for most of them... at least it's not like their own creations which you're asking to change, this was made specially for you and so you should make sure it's just the way you want it ;)
       
    6. I didn't feel guilty at all. I am paying good money for a doll and I want it done right. I don't feel that I am being that picky - the nose wasn't anything at all right, it was massive. So I don't feel that I am hurting the artists feelings by requesting some modifications. There was a lot of good points too. The forehead was amazingly done, it looked so good! Most of the sculpts that I have seen on here turned out so well, that its just to be expected to have some turn out not right and have mod requests. :)
       
    7. Thanks Denny for the update and enjoy your holiday...!

      (in the meantime my heart is jumping at the prospect of getting my minimee very soon!!)
       
    8. Thank you all ^^

      Re : Modification

      No, you shouldn't feel anything about it.(Don't worry)
      If the request is too difficult, I will say ^^ it's difficult. anyway.
      With my experience, most of modification requests were absolutely fine.

      But in case of requesting the position of the eyes or similar request is difficult as we have to change whole thing. Maybe better to create another one. So When I receive request of modification, I check myself for my team and decide if it will work or not.

      Also, I take no further modification fee if I think the sculpt doesn't look like the owener or when my team make a mistake such as front two teeth should have been created instead of two Vampire teeth.

      So Please do not feel anything wrong for your modification, you pay what you are asking for and I will reply all the questions.

      Happy weekend !

    9. Well, it's really a certain look that I find myself always photoshopping BJDs to be more like. A combination of a small Narae-like nose. A long, squarish jaw. (Kinda like Lu-Wen) And larger eyes that are just a bit larger than normal size, but aren't as wide as the Delfs...

      So far the closest sculpt would require so much modding... And I just noticed his eyes are off-center, too! (The OD Il sculpt. I like the face, but I notice so many "flaws" with it. It's frustrating.)

      I wonder how much money I should commission someone for? I want someone good...
       
    10. Hahaha, Denny, that's hilarious XD I have to say, the vampire teeth really are fun! I'm having a good giggle at them, and I'm glad I'll always have the preview photos to look back on, even when they're modded off :)
       
    11. Denny,
      I have a question about requesting mods. Do they have to be really specific? In my email to you about the nose being to large, that was all I said. Do I need to have a more detailed explanation for what I want fixed? If so let me know and I will email you about it. Thanks.
       
    12. Umm... eek. Actually, the chin is the only part that is not a perfect match to my facial features. Maybe I need to see about having that modified if it looks that masculine. I don't want my minimee to look like a boy :(

      I have plans for both heads.
       
    13. haha yeah... That's good. I wonder if you'll have them before the next meet! I'm excited to see them in person. It's your call on the chin, It could also be the fact that most dolls are so stylized that to see an actual feature on a doll that's not stylized throws me off lol. I think they look great, though it's your call at this point.
       
    14. Don't worry. I can manage it.
      If I don't understand much, I ask customers for more specific detailes of explanation with photoshop.
      In your case, I think I understood and it's not difficult.
      Just let me know if you don't like the nose after the modification. ^^

      Denny
       
    15. LOL Kazzii! You got a vampy kyo? XDD could you possibly PM me with the photo, wanna see wanna seeee
       
    16. Oh, By the way, let me know what things you want to modify ^^ by e-mail.
      thanks for understanding on the Vampire teeth ^^

      Denny
       
    17. i'd like to see those vamp teeth as well Kazii. That sounds fun. I'll see what Denny can do with vampy teeth as my character I want is a vampire as well.

      Oh Denny. when it comes to expression, can your artists do something crazy like a cocky grin? one that's all "heh" does that make sense??? :sweat
       
    18. We can do whatever ^^ just show me.
      In fact, we've made several already.
      anything is possible. (You know what, one of customers ordered a bull, it's difficult and very challening !! the real bull)
      If you have drawings or any reference picture, we can create it.
      Thanks

      Denny
       
    19. They ordered a BULL!?

      Denny, that's fantastic! I had no idea animals could be ordered!

      *__* I wonder if people are interesting in animal group orders..!! Like kitties, lizards..

      @__@ *wants a Knuckles the Echidna*

      [EDIT] If anyone is indeed interested in animal group orders, let's all get together and arrange something!
       
    20. Denny, as long as we're all being a bit greedy here about ordering different grins and horns and ears....what about hands???

      I would love to have a sword-holding hand and a fan-holding hand, for instance. Is that possible? Maybe a lot of other people would be interested in something like that as well.
