Do you have an unintentional type?

Smiling dolls.... I remember I thought that smiling dolls sometimes looks creepy, then I realized I already have 2 heads that are on the smiling side Coherence, where is it.

 

Big/wide eyes and a pouty/grumpy face. To the point where I'm actively trying to keep an eye out for sculpts that don't have those features because otherwise they'd all be my dolls. Trying to cultivate facial variety within my collection is hard!

I also keep gravitating towards pink clothing despite all my dolls (supposedly) having their own distinct colour schemes. That also applies to my off topic dolls as well

 

Guys with smirks or extremely brooding looks... ahh! I can't resist them!! As well as smiling girls, I just love them! I tend to dress all my girls in pink, despite like baxterbrat said them having their own styles hehe... I just can't help myself

 

I totally didn't do this intentionally but all of my humanoid bjds have been elf eared girls. My original MSD hybrid went from an Impldoll Moon to a Minifee Juri, and when I got back into the hobby I bought a Lati Yellow Lumi second hand. When she arrived, it turned out she had been modified to be an elf, which wasn't disclosed by the seller since it was an estate sale. Love her though!

 

Clowns. And Pumpkins. But I know I like them for a long time.

 

One of my first dolls was an F-17, and I've noticed that a few of my other dolls have a similar nose and mouth shape to him...I guess I have a type.

 

Chubby bodied anime dolls. I now have two, and saw a third I’d like to have someday. The chubby esthetic came on gradually as it wasn’t my intention to actively add it to my collection, but now I think it will be my main criteria, so all the dolls match, lol.

 

I used to have an unintentional type and now I have a very intentional type: open mouth cuties with smiles. I love them I adore them and they make me so happy! Half of my dolls will have this feature after the next one arrives.

 

Skinny, small busts. Usually 1/3 scale, but I’m liking smaller dolls more now for some reason

 

I seem to gravitate toward dolls with open mouths, or at least teeth. Most of my collection has teeth visible, and I didn't plan that at all.

 

1/3-scale "Old school" sculpts that are more stylized than realistic, typically with natural hair-colors and skin tones, fairly neutral expressions and exclusively non-textured faceups. (Sorry, I'm just not a fan of that particular trend. Likewise bee-sting or exaggerated cupid's-bow lips.)

Wardrobes here vary, but many of my gang end up in Asian outfits... although some are much truer to actual historical styles, materials and construction than others. The truth is that I'm no more a stickler for strict "realism" in my dolls costumes than I am for their sculptural style. I care more about how it looks than how accurate it is to human clothing from the same period. My concern is for how well it suits the doll and how much I like the look.

 

Hehe, yes. My wife told me a while back that she can't tell any of my dolls apart because they all look the same. At first I was like, no, what can you be saying??? But...it's kind of true...

I love dolls with partially closed eyes, full lips and open mouths, with a specific spacing between the features that gives them what I will call a certain cat-like appearance. Hehe. Well, oh well. I love them!

 

I don't like dolls with teeth, yet I somehow ended up with four of them?

 

An intentional one being mostly elf ear sculpts. Unintentional being everyone in my crew is moderately or heavily tatted. Even though I tend to dislike them irl.

 

Clowns, pumpkins, Halloween-looking dolls, centaurs, fantasy dolls.
Even though I have none of them

 

Mostly elves and sculpts with teeth. ...and pretty boys with dark hair and light (usually blue) eyes (which is also usually the look for my OCs lmao).

 

• Delfs, all of them. Just any one of them, I'm hardly ever picky with them.
• Old School dolls.
• BIG BROODY BOYS. The bigger and broodier they are, the more I'm into them.

 

Dreaming dolls. I vividly remember being on the DoD site when I was choosing my first doll and being so creeped out by Dreaming Shall (she’s beautiful, past me was an idiot) because of her half-closed eyes, and now if I can get my hands on the dreamy version of a sculpt I will always choose it over open eyed.

 

I like to try and keep my dolls from being too much the same, but it's really hard for me to resist everyone having dark brown eyes. I dunno, they're just so pretty. More of my dolls than not have some shade of brown eyes...and I think about half of them have black hair. So I guess my inadvertent doll type is dark hair and eyes.
