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.

Fairyland LittleFee Discussion Thread - Part 34

    1. I think I have 1/8 down but I’m struggling with photographing yosd size. I can’t make the photo show how good they look in real life, I have to find the right focal length and maybe I can get better pictures of them outside when the weather gets better. Anyway here’s an updated picture of Ante, I’m starting to figure her out I think.

    2. If that's what your "still learning" picture looks like I can't wait to see what comes next!

      I'm also not the best at indoor photos, partly because of lighting and partly because it's harder to find a clear background. It's mighty tempting to start rearranging furniture with doll pictures in mind, but that would be ridiculous, right? * laughs nervously while sizing up my spare room *

    3. I have wished I could rearrange the room, lol! I just use scrapbook paper or artwork as a backdrop indoors, It makes it portable so that I can get the best light. I also do not have a lot of props yet so I feel like my pictures might look boring. I love outdoor photos with pretty backgrounds, foregrounds, pretty light, and beautiful soft bokeh but we rarely have nice weather. Then when it’s nice, you have to put something down on the ground to sit on because it’s always wet.

    4. I have wanted to try out Bhiner for a while now, so I ordered a pair of purple eyes too - lol - I feel like a copycat, but I really was looking for a pair of purple eyes and yours are beautiful! The eyes I ordered aren't for Ante though. I think the whole process of ordering from Bhiner is definitely a different experience.They do a really good job of letting you know what to expect though.
       
    5. I don’t consider it copying at all. You’re right, it was a different experience and it’s worth figuring out when you see so many things on there being resold on Etsy for twice as much.

    6. I have some new things on order for Ante but wanted to get a new pic since it was a little nicer today. I just wish spring would actually come so I can take pictures outside.

    8. Hello!
      I've just gotten my Hwayu (2nd hand but legit) yesterday and her faceplate keeps falling off?! I've fixed it with a tiny bit of putty now and the wig is also helping but I'm wondering if that's normal? The seller said she came like this from FL (they ordered there directly)
      Not questioning authenticity but just confused because she's me first Littlefee and my 2nd BJD in general (my 1st was a Minifee a while back and my others are DD and Smartdoll)

      Pic of Hwayu!
      I can show a Pic of the inside of the head too ofc but comparing it with other pics it doesn't seem broken or anything ‍*_*

    9. Usually Fairyland will send the LTF with two extra magnets. These are for the holes at the top of the headback and faceplate - you place the magnets into those holes to solve this particular problem.

      You can see the magnet hole in the triangular piece in this photo, there is a corresponding hole in a LTF's headback:

      One of my LTF Lishes has this problem - generally her faceplate is held on by the plastic wig-cap she's wearing.

    10. Congrats on her arrival! She is super cute, but yeah, some LTFs like to throw their faces. Mine fortunately are very snug on their headbacks, but I also never received magnets with mine as they were all secondhand. But my dolls with faceplates that suffer from "face-throwing-itis" got stuffed full of eye putty.
       
    11. Yes, that's what I thought should go there, the seller said there never were any magnets though
      Maybe I'll go look for some but for now the putty is doing its job too
      Could I put in the magnets (if I find fitting ones) with some super glue? Or might FL be willing to send some if I'm ordering something else? I have no experience with their customer service yet for this stuff

      Thank you! I'm glad to hear putty is the thing others use for this issue too and that I'm not alone with it :XD:
       
    12. I *think* you can look for “Rare Earth Magnets” to fit the diameter of the spots. Just test them before flying so you don’t accidentally set them in the wrong polarity.
       
    13. if you're like me and no amount of testing can save you from yourself, I've had good luck with the freezing method - stick part in freezer, forget about it for a few hours, go "oh no my doll", and wiggle it out.

    14. LMBO! Yep, I have been there!
      I need all of my dolls to be able to share parts as much as possible, so I have had to do a lot of magnet swapping.
