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.

Dream of Doll: DoT and DoI - Part 7

Dec 7, 2020

    1. So yesterday my irl bestie @Yushimi was over, and she brought her newly acquired Lahoo (plus one of her Sha's)! I think it was my first time seeing a Lahoo in-person. So we sat my Camine with them like a happy DOT family :D I just love seeing all these handsome boys together

    2. @Insane-Chan What a team! <3

      So... Despite Boihead not having a body yet, I ordered him a wig and am currently looking for eyes.
      What eye size do you guys use for your DoT boys?
       
    3. @Morri_P. I use the default size - 16mm. 18mm always looks too big for their narrow heads.

    4. Sounds about right. Tohma is a DoI Luke, and he wears 16mm eyes. I can't imagine him with 18mm eyes, it would look weird to me if they were any larger.:sweat

    5. @Morri_P. I actually use 14mm in basically all of my big dolls :sweat Kalix has 18mm with a custom small iris otherwise he has gapping, but he's the only one who does.

      @Insane-Chan :D :D :D They're gorgeous!!

      Well, I mentioned I intended a group photo... I'm busy setting up the gallery/PJ posts but I took a separate photo of just the DOD SDs for this thread :frownyblush: 12 of them.

      [​IMG]
      Back row: Kalix (Johann), Luke (Xander), Elf The-B (Vanya), Code02 tan v2 (Kean), MR.P1 (Arlen), MR.P1 (Icarus)
      Front row: Lahoo (Mil), E-an (Reine), A&D (Sebastian), Code02 (Mika), Calla (no name yet), Isis (Lucina).

      @____@;;; I'm kind of horrified at them, I'll be honest, I don't usually have all of my dolls together like this :horror:
      That's without the collection of floating heads, too :chomp:

    12. @Shido aaahhh what a lovely DOD family you have! I even spot E-ans original outfit. I´m so jealous you have that classy stunning outfit still! I wish I had ordered it as well back then T__T

      I sadly don´t have updated pictures of my two DOD girls haha. My E-an needs a serious makeover than what she started out with 11 years ago. I no longer like having very dark gothic girl dolls. and that faceup I did years ago is so awful :sweat

    13. @Miko_Chan Thanks for sharing your girl! That faceup look was definitely very much in style back then! Your E-an still manages to look very sweet with it though~~
       
    14. @Miko_Chan She's lovely :D I can't wait to see what you do with her!
       
    15. Ooh another E-an! I think she will forever be my favorite sculpt from DoD. (I'm definitely biased, lol.) I had always meant to buy one (or I-ra) to match my Tender E-an so they could be sisters, but alas.

      For now I find myself having a bit of a dilemma. My girl is from 2006; her faceup is in good condition but it's chipped on her cheek and her eyelashes desperately need replacing. I have zero crafty skill whatsoever, so I'm considering sending her out to be painted so she can be updated, but at the same time I really don't want to lose the DoD faceup since it's kind of a relic now, you know? Are faceup "touch ups" a thing?

      I did buy her a new wig. I couldn't get the red one to behave, even with detergent. So once she's not bald I will (finally) post a pic of her here. (She is the one in my icon, though.)
       
    16. @ryuunohime E-an has such a unique face, and I still remember the anticipation for I-ra when DOD had only released the teaser pics with the mask on her face lol.

      Faceup touch ups are definitely a thing! Honestly I've been meaning to get my Camine's default faceup completely redone for years now...I think if there's things you'd like upgraded, a fresh faceup really brings out a lot in a doll. But a touch up is possible too! Blushing is always one of the things that gets chipped on a faceup, so I think plenty of people need to fix that every once in a while.
       
    17. Omg, I can't believe it! I have a DOT Shall on the way :...(:...(<3 I owe you for real for the tip, @Shido !

      Mandarake added one who needs a little cleaning and re-stringing, and I was able to get her! Honestly it looks like she only really just needs a quick bath and new string...but yet they listed her as "JUNK" quality. Poor thing...but I can't believe after all of these years I'm bringing a Shall home!

      would you mind sharing the mandarake link of the listing? I can't seem to find the tags to follow :doh
