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.

DollZone Moment and Anson discussion part 1

Oct 14, 2011

    1. Oh Lucky you! Congratulations!:)
       
    2. Congrats! ^___^
       
    3. Progress on Anson! Still haven't thought of a name. However, dissassembly, oxy bath, reassembly, petal chip sanding and eye opening mod has been complete. Found some beautiful metallic colored beads that will make lovely eyes for her. I want to give her a bright tropical paint scheme. I'll post some mock up sketches and palettes later.

    4. Ooooo! Love the eye beads. Terrific idea!
      And that's still a lot of work, you aren't fooling any of us. lol
      Can't wait to see your mock ups. Sounds interesting.
       
    5. @Spectrum_Rhapsody, how exciting that another Anson is now coming to life! I can't wait to see more as the work progresses. Using those beautiful beads for eyes was a total touch of brilliance on your part! I did my own Anson in very muted, soft tones so I'm really looking forward to seeing one done in bright tropical colors.:)
       
    6. hello everyone. looks like the thread died down a bit. How is everyone's flowers?

    8. Exciting! :D
      Congrats @Atomiczombiephd

      Hm, nothing much new to report on my own flowers. Whoops.

      Also, this is not Dollzone...but have you all seen this Impledoll? Thought it might be of particular interest to this group. ;)

    9. @Atomiczombiephd, congratulations on finding a Moment of your very own! That's truly wonderful and we can't wait to see what you do with him once he arrives.:)

      @Lady Ravenswood, very, very interesting indeed! Thanks so much for sharing that link with us...that has real possibilities for a future face in my conservatory.;)
       
    10. @PoeticSoul
      I know, right? I...may need her...for...purposes...:aninja:
      No but seriously, she would probably look lovely with our flower sculpts. I am very excited to see the finished sculpt!
       
    11. Whaaaaat?? That def looks like impls version of anson; and i have a strong need XD
       
    12. I love the Anson sculpt! I didn't see this doll until after the fact and I am looking for one to buy but so far I am having no luck locating one. It's truly a work of art!
       
    13. Hows the garden going everyone? Please share your flowers
       
    14. Been away from home a lot due to work. Still debating on paint colors for Anson. Haven't been able to practice with my airbrush since I haven't been home. Currently hunting down some vivid lashes for the gal. Any suggestons?
       
    15. Here we are... 4 years later, I can finally bump this thread myself! The WTB doll gods hath smiled upon me; I just got my tracking number for Anson! :D I'm over the moon and totally stoked.

      I started playing around with some blushing mockups... I was thinking of making her petals into leaves (as opposed to... well, petals) with things like flowers, and maybe fruit, as external components. I love seeing Ansons and Moments with "stuff" sitting inside their petals.

      We'll see... my first mockups, I went for red wine colors and a deep blue-green... and she looked less like a fantastical plantlady, and more like chard or beetroot :lol: nothing wrong with that, but I think I'll play with veining and verigation and see if I can come up with something more majestic-looking than table greens

      Her ETA is this Thursday! At the risk of it being just me in this thread: how is everyone else doing?

    16. @Xila heartfelt congratulations on your incoming Anson!:) I can’t wait to see what you do with her...she’s such an amazing sculpt, and so perfect for artistic expression. My own dear Bohemia Rose has been an absolute joy and inspiration to me for all these years. I really should get around to taking some new photos of her.

    17. Oh! Congratulations! :sumomo::sumomo::sumomo:
      Love your ideas so far! Sounds lovely!

      My own moment is sitting snug in my doll case. Still waiting for me to continue with his headcap. Life was not kind to his project, I'm afraid. But hopefully some day. I no longer own Anson.

      So good to see everyone in here again. :hug:

    18. @PoeticSoul Bohemia Rose is always a wonder, I revisit her pictures from time to time! I love her comfortable habitats, I would love to rearrange some of my "doll room" to give all my dolls some space of their own (there's nothing stopping me from doing so, apart from the fact it's a mess!!)

      @Lady Ravenswood it's good to see you!! I love your Moment, regardless of how complete he is. The colors are so unique yet harmonious. :D these dolls are a great canvas for detailed designs

    19. Friend: haha, i wanna paint dolls again, but i don’t wanna own them. but i wanna paint one!!
      Me: HAVE I GOT A PROPOSAL FOR YOU.

      ya'll i'm super excited, there's been FILIGREE and WIG MAKING and there will be MOSS. After owning the poor thing and leaving it blank for about More Years Then I Want To Admit To it's very exciting to have it finished.

    20. That sounds awesome! Can't wait to see @Nasa :chocoheart

      Hahaha, and the end is also familiar. :sweat
      I've always planned to add moss to my Moment as well, so it makes me so excited to hear about moss on your flower!
