DreamHigh Studio Discussion Thread - Part 2

Those are awesome knights, MB Lilac!

DHS had problems with their site yesterday, so almost everything looked 'Sold Out' for a while.

 

@Lemon Balm Sprite - Thanks. Yes, I made their costumes. It's a ton of work at this tiny scale, and even more labour intensive that the bigger knights.

Thanks. Yes, but they got it working again. Either way I'm hesitant right now, as I'm finally working on six elves that have been waiting for some attention, some for almost two years. I'll see how I feel about Yin and Yang when their major preorder comes up.

I'm just happy there's an option to choose the old hands, and not the magnetic ones. I really don't like those. They are constantly falling off. Thankfully I still had a couple of pairs of the DHS articulated hands, so switched out Gino's magnetic ones.

I'm working on Archibald and had already switched out his hands for some articulated ones (because I don't care for the huge ones he came with) but didn't realize that he also had magnetic feet. Those drove me crazy falling off. I was making him some tights, and his feet kept coming off and dangling in the bottom of the tights. I finally got fed up and just glued the magnetic parts together. I can understand they might be handy for putting tight pants on him, but to me they are more trouble than they are worth. So I glued them. When I get to Daisy, I think I may just choose whichever of her magnetic hands I like best and just glue them.

 

Yay I am glad that I will actually be able to get hold of Yin!! And when my wallet has recovered too...

Your Sir Nolan and Sir Gino are truely amazing!!

 

I orderd Yin with normal hands, my alfredo has magnetic hands, they are so pretty and well manicured, but I hate them falling off. It doens't matter if you just take pictures with your dolls, but mine are always exploring my whole house, so I don't want parts to fall off Donny made it difficult to make a choice with 5 different dolls. I sold my willie and aldou and avery, but I am missing them.
Ah well I missed ordering Gino, but I think Yin is even better. I am not good with lady elfs, Nala has a special face. but I see her more as a male too My Yin is also going to be male I think ,or perhaps Yin is Yang too so perhaps male and female just what I want at that time. He is going to live with my rabbit in his hole.

 

I agree. I liked all the different hand poses with the magnetic hands, but they just fall off way too easily. Like you said, fine if the doll is just going to stand on display, but a definite problem when they get photographed on location outside. I could just see them falling off and me not noticing until I get them back in the house, and then how do I ever find them again? So I'm very glad regular hands are an option.

I really liked Yin and Yang, but missed them this time. Oh well, there's always next time.

 

My small, but much loved DHS fam.

My tiny family...the Avery twins, with Mom and Dad (Daisy & Gino) and Grandma Phairby...

 

A beautiful 3 generation family, MB Lilac!!

 

Thanks. I thought it would be fun to make Phairby be Daisy's Mom, and therefor the twins' Grandma. I hope to make Avery & Emily little butterfly fairy outfits at some point, so they can go flying with their Grandma. It's just that there's a LONG list of other things I need (or want) to do first.

 

love the world your bjd's are living in

 

Thanks. My Elves inhabit the same world as my other, bigger dolls. They just live in a far away kingdom, but do meet from time to time...

 

Daisy & Gino's family carving pumpkins for Halloween...

 

Such a dreamy scene! Perfect autumn colours. The details you get on their clothing is amazing. My favourite is the embroidered apron on Avery

 

Thanks. But her apron isn't embroidered. It' was made from a floral stripe print...

 

Congratulations on carving the pumpkins! It's an awesome picture!

 

Thanks. It was a last minute effort on Halloween afternoon. I only carved faces into three of them, since I needed them for a photo with the two little kids...


But then, since I had the guts removed from the first three, I just went two further and did the 'carving' photos.

 

Oh my bad! It totally looked embroidered to me. Still gorgeous with amazing details though. I should probably get my glasses prescription checked ;P

 

I might have asked this before, so please excuse me and my momentary forgetfulness.
I have a Hana, and I love her to bits, but she doesn’t have any shoes. What shoes fit that sculpt?

 

I'm hoping that my Hana arrives next week. Her foot is 3.3cm. My Realfees' feet are 3cm, so I'll be borrowing some of their shoes.
