Dream Valley Mini Discussion Thread 2

I might need the wolf boy
I have a weakness for half animals, *looks at his snake boys and new lizard boy*

 

I was secretly hoping I’d be disappointed by the body to spare my wallet, but he’s so good. I was just about ready to take a long break from buying new dolls to focus on the ones I already have, but of course Dream Valley comes out with the 1/4 scale werewolf doll I’ve been wanting for years. Going to have to think real hard about this one. My poor hobby savings is fighting for its life, haha.

 

Ahahah so true, though! And I literally JUST customized this exact thing via a Resinsoul body, for my DV Order head... then they go and do this and I can't help but laugh about it. And cry a little too, for what it'll do for my wallet. It's precisely what I wanted but didn't expect to see anytime soon.

I'm wondering the same about the colors and grey is my top guess. I'm torn on whether to actually hope for that, though. There's a few contenders that would really tempt me...that's one, and the exact shade of brown the Ghost Moth had is the other. Or one from the past, which I think was exclusive to the Withered horse-man? That color was spectacular (was it called "niello"?). No idea if they'd ever bring it back, but this would be the perfect time for it.

 

Oh man that werewolf is looking amazing! I really like the sculpted fur around the elbow joints and the neck piece!

 

Oh man, I really like the look of that werewolf- I thought my Orion fox (from gem of doll) was the only 1/4 canine but not any more! I wasn't planning on getting any more dolls for a while but this is seriously tempting me. I wonder if it will be limited?

 

I saw 'cowboy' and went 'oh no, i'm going to want it now!' as I love cowboy characters. But yes, the randomness of little denim shorts with full chaps is making me laugh too

 

I am obsessed with the short-shorts and chaps, and I need them immediately.

In other news, my Nirvana Phoenix legs arrived yesterday, and I gave them to my Maurren crow boy. He’s considerably shorter with the Phoenix legs, but I much prefer him to be less leggy anyway lol. Love how he looks with more birdlike feet~

This was my first time actually taking apart one of the new interchangeable lower bodies, and DV’s engineering for it is really ingenious. At least in the Maurren body, there’s built-in ledges to hold the S-hook of the torso in place while the lower body is detached. Pretty nifty!

 

Oh my god. Of all the things I didn't expect, a cowboy werewolf was what I didn't expect the most! Now, a coyote would've been on-brand. Not my thing either way, but that's not a complaint, because I'm planning to style him as a kitsune anyway (or multiple kitsune, if the price is right and there's more than one resin color I really like) and it'll be a lot cheaper without the extras!

The kitsune plan is why GoD's Orion briefly tempted me, but I didn't love the style of his face or paws (sorry, other companies, DV is the king here), so I held out for a better option...and that's what Mr Yee-howl here turned out to be.

Oh I would love to see that combination! I almost bought Nirvana's legs for that exact same purpose, but the timing was bad, and I held off. I think that probably was for the best because of the Milien release, which I did pick up, and am hoping will look as good or better than a Nirvana hybrid would have.

 

Oh no I need him more now, my only good werewolf PC is a cowboy from a WtA Wild West game. Help my wallet is in danger. XD

 

oh NO you're so right he'd be so good for that (also yes hi pls tell me about your guy (・ｗ・) i love shifter the most out of WoD splats)

 

I have had all of one wild west PC and played James "Luck's Crooked Grin" Morris all of one night (Normally I play the other shifters not werewolves.) but like I need this wolf so much he even has blue eyes like my James did. I had no plans to shell my cowboy gambler Galliard, but here we are and Dream Valley is just like here you go one werewolf. I have needs.

 

YES GALLIARD GANG. I love that deed name! I hope he can come home to you, he sounds delightful.

Not to delve too far off topic but HELLO I'M HIGH FIVING YOU WE ALL AWOO HERE

 

I do not need a cowboy werewolf myself, but I look forward to seeing all the Yee-howls.

 

Surprise cowboy werewolf was so unexpected! He looks great, I love the full set ! I'm definitely in danger!

 

Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all night! It popped into my head and I couldn't un-think it. In the future, anytime I see someone posting a fullset, that's his name as far as I'm concerned! I am of course super curious to know what the actual name is, but it's Yee-Howl in my heart

That, and I'm deathly curious what the available resin colors will be (and how his blushing would look on each, unless it's like with Velarde where the makeup that was pictured was only available for the tan color). Been haunting me from the moment I saw him, and it's gonna be a huge factor in whether I get hit for the price of one doll or two.

 

Oh my word, that outfit! Yee-Howl indeed! Someone had fun designing that. Love it, but if I got him I'd have to find something else he could wear. I'm liking his human head too. Uh oh.

 

I was wondering what to call the short shorts with those long chaps! I like romance novel cowboy for the outfit description.

I would also have expected a coyote, and I love the name Yee-howl!
I am very interested to see what your kitsune(s) end up looking like!
Yee-howl is awesome looking and definitely more realistic, I did find myself questioning my decision with Orion, until I realized one of the things I like most about big bjd's is their dramatic, smug looks. That said, if they offer the blank body for a decent price, I may be getting one of these as well, despite my plans.


Does anyone else think he deserves a horse with those long chaps? Dream valley did some great big dragons earlier.
