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.

    2. Ducan's top is black in person.
      I'm not sure what happens when you photograph it under artificial lights. I've been talking to some photographers...in our group, and it just must be a colour shift that happens under artificial light.

    3. could be that - depending on the types of dyes used in the fabric, the material and whatnot. If left out in the sun to bleach for a bit it'll probably lighten more to that colour is my guess

    6. You're welcome, P chan! :)

      I think that Homme Ducan is even prettier in person than in the pics.

      OH! And a question for anyone who ordered in the right timeframe: what extra wig did you get? Mine's black and short-ish. I'll see if I can find a picture of if on Dream of Doll...

    7. congrats GB :) he's a nice doll. If you don't use the flash and take pictures in natural light, his face up will come out much nicer I find ;)

      extra wig? wow! I hope mine comes with one XD
       
      #207 rillystar, Nov 4, 2006
    8. thanks for the pics! :D

    9. wow extra wig

      :D
      wow he looks good!

      maybe u should make the flash not so bright?

    10. Well, the two pictures that are yellowish are WITHOUT the flash. Unfortunately, after our "minor tiff" with the post office (the mailman tried to deliver to the wrong house, left delivery notification at the wrong house, and then filled out the delivery notice WRONG so I wasn't allowed to PICK UP the box at the post office), it was dark.

      The lighting in our house is definitely NOT great, so after trying different lamps (and different combos of lamps/overhead lights), I just did two pictures WITH flash and two without. In natural daylight, my camera takes really good doll pictures. But I find dollfies to be hard to photograph without actual daylight. :/

    11. ooo i see.

      thoese yellowish aren't with flash. that's why it looks better than those with flash
       
      #211 milodrums, Nov 4, 2006
    12. yeah generally if you're doing night time pics you'll want a tripod so you can use a slwoer shutter if your light sourcing isn't great. I'm going to be purchasing a soft light box and lamps so I can take some nice clear pics without flash, but you need some pretty bright lights if you're only using one or two from a fair distance (i.e. regular household ceiling lights) and even then they'll be yellowish. there are also filters you can use but generally will need a bit more light as well...
       
      #212 rillystar, Nov 4, 2006
    13. Yup. Since the walls of the house aren't white (they're sort of a tan-ish color), it seems that any overhead lighting picks up as YELLOW without a flash, too!). :/

      Usually, I'll just photoshop the pictures to get a good color balance, but I was in a hurry to get some photos of Lucien! :)
       
      #213 gorey_ballerina, Nov 4, 2006
    14. yep! haha <3 homme ducan~
       
      #214 milodrums, Nov 4, 2006
    15. rillystar, if you ordered on the 26th, 27th, or 28th of September (according to the website), you'll get a free random wig.

      I guess it was a special for Homme Ducan, Kirill, and Ivan. :)
       
      #215 gorey_ballerina, Nov 4, 2006
    16. Oh cool. I guess I have one coming then XD Yay! My other boy needs a new wig. since he'll likely be stealing Ducan's or the random one
       
      #216 rillystar, Nov 4, 2006
    17. I think the wig I got was the DW-04, but in black. It's the wig on Dream of Doll that's closest in style to the one we got, so I think it's that one. :)

      Rillystar: tell me what wig you get when your ducan comes in! I'm curious! :)
       
      #217 gorey_ballerina, Nov 4, 2006
    18. dunno yet, he's still somewhere in the airport I guess. I'll get him early next week I'm guessing. Hopfully if it's a DW wig I can nab an 06 or something XD
       
      #218 rillystar, Nov 4, 2006
    19. rillystar>> can't wait for ur ducan!
       
      #219 milodrums, Nov 4, 2006
