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.

Do you prefer closed mouth or opened mouth?

Feb 25, 2018

    1. Partially Opened Mouth ^^ I find it more natural.
       
    2. I like closed mouth a little more but any is okay with me really.
       
    3. I love it when you can see a dolls teeth. But I think it depends on the rest of the face.
       
    4. I prefer close mouth when the sculpt is smiling (or the mouth corner goes higher at least), but like the slightly open mouth when the doll is expression less or neutral!
       
    5. I really like partially open mouths, it makes the doll feel more alive and expressionate, like they want to say something to me :)

    6. Closed mouth with no teeth showing. I'm old school on this. Very strict.:kitty2
       
    7. Closed. But there's a certain style of open mouth I like...like this

    8. I used to be very firm in my "open mouth dolls aren't for me" belief. Recently that seems to be a load of crap, because I bought an opened mouth doll and have plans to buy another.
       
    9. Indeed I prefer open mouth.
      And the better is it have tifeg teeths!!
      That will be perfect :D

    10. i've never thought about this very closely, but i like slightly open mouths! parted lips and a little teeth. this really depends on the sculpt though :)
       
    11. Depends on the sculpt, but I usually prefer closed-mouthed dolls, though I do like some with slightly open mouths as well, like Little Monica's Sophia. Dolls with wide open mouths and sculpted teeth are definitely not for me, however.
       
    12. Usually I prefer closed mouth sculpts, but there are a few exceptions if the open mouth is showing vampire teeth :whee:
       
    13. I liked closed mouth more in general, but a very slight glimpse of teeth is okay with me. I don't care for the "permanent expression" types such as big, open grin or shouting (unless they are coming with multiple face plates).
       
    14. While I enjoy most (closed and partially opened), I LOVE toothy grins. I've never painted teeth before but I'm so excited to get my hands on something like that!! Especially the ones with sharp teeth :love
       
    15. It depends, but overall I prefer closed mouth. I don't mind partially open but I don't feel like wide open mouths are very versatile, if that makes sense. However, I do prefer an open mouth for fangs! I hate the look of fangs sculpted over the lips.
       
    16. I love both :D! I can't really say why tho... I guess people don't have closed mouths all the time so why should my dolls have them :XD:!
       
    17. I prefer a closed mouth. There are definitely some very cute open-mouthed sculpts, I just always feel like they’re about to have a bug fly in their mouth or something. Or maybe that they’re breathing through their mouth. :sigh
       
    18. I prefer neutral or sad looking dolls and have yet to see one with an open mouth that I like... so definitely closed :)
       
    19. I like the closed mouths on the more realistic dolls, and thought I’d never get any open mouthed doll. But then I saw DZ KeAi and thought the anime style, with the open mouth, was adorable.
       
    20. Closed with few exceptions. I love my little momonita, for instance, but the model “pout” like many of the Dollshe women? Not my cup of tea.
