Fairyland MiniFee MNF discussion part 68

Congrats, Klaw. Raven is really pretty! Fairyland was posting some pictures on Instagram while they were getting ready to ship Raven full sets and it did not look like there were that many boxes. I’m wondering too, if she did not sell well.

I’m definitely not regretting my choice in picking her up. In fact, I ended up ordering another body from DDE in WS because I want to have out both Raven’s human head and her Calavera head. I guess they ended up becoming two separate characters in my mind. For anyone curious, here’s a picture of the Calavera head painted taken by the light of my Christmas tree before it went away. Fairyland did such an amazing job on the face up.

 

@sephyelysian You're right, she looks so good!

 

OMG i love her she is sooo much better i wonder if they would let me swap them of course pay extra since she is tan...

Thank you so much for doing this

 

Thank you I wondered that myself but honestly mine has soo much blue on her its the same thing that put me off my Ingrid and made me sell her I just couldn't handle all the blue lol

 

I agree its the blue that i mostly dislike but also the darkness of her too to me she should be more natural

 

Thanks, @Leo Pheonix! I hope more of these girls pop up. I would love to see them!

 

Thank you for sharing the photo. She is so pretty, the Calavera head was what got me and I'm really excited to see it! I got my Raven in tan, so I will definitely need to post photos of her when she arrives - only a few more days.

 

@sephyelysian The Raven Calavera is really pretty. ❤️

Several years ago I had Eludys do a custom faceup for my Zaníya, which I use on my ofrenda. She’s a BW Chloe.

Wow, she is so pretty!

Also adore Anais and the mods they did to this head, but you knew that!

 

It’s gonna be really neat to see her in the tan. I was really torn when ordering her between the white and gray. We have a Layla in the house that’s gray and the color is so pretty. I ultimately went with the white because I wanted her more skeletal looking. I definitely want to see her in all the skin tones though. Please do post pictures when she gets here!

Wow! She’s so impressive. What a gorgeous girl. Thank you so much for sharing her!

 

@Amet and @sephyelysian thank you so much!

I custom ordered the dress for her from @AyuAna and found the jewelry Etsy for Tonner dolls—the earrings are hot glued to her ears. But I made the crown myself, and also the wreaths for the candles. The background is print to order marigold fabric wrapped around cardboard and placed behind the removable shelves.

Here’s a photo of the whole ofrenda — top shelf, my mother’s family, middle, my father’s family, bottom, my husband’s family.

It’s not kept up year-round.

This is so beautiful and moving. Thank you for sharing this picture. I love seeing all the pictures. You did an amazing job with her and pulling everything together. She suits everything perfectly!

 

Raven arrived today! Her faceup is very shimmery, but she's lovely. I started to worry when I got the shipping notice that I had ordered the calavera head in tan like her body, but honestly it is so beautiful as it is. The white head would have looked strange on the tan body. Her full outfit has so many straps, even with warnings I was not prepared. Will get some pictures of her soon.

 

I have acquisitioned a light box! Touma helped me test it out.

 

@Magnus Vale I'm loving the whole vibe there!

 

Sorry forgot to ask where was this store please?

 

It's Dolk Akihabara Radiokaikan store
I'll drop the map down. :

I never expect anything cheap from this shop, but they just... in some way always manage to get a rare doll with good faceup from many doll company. Able to just choose a doll you like and bring him/her back home right away is really a great experience that sometime win over the anxious of waiting with unknown future from pre-order.

If you happen to visit tokyo, it's a good place to stop by, they won't get angry even though you don't buy anything

 

Thank you so very much unfortunately the online shop cant swap anything out with an actual shop so i am stuck with mine lol
Fingers crossed she is not as blue in Real life

 

I lucked up and found someone on Instagram selling most of the Minifee Maya Valkyrie set and it arrived just ahead of the snowstorm we got last night and this morning. I bought it for Artemis, my Minifee Rheia and I am absolutely in love with how she looks in it. It’s such a cool old full set. I am genuinely just impressed with all the little details.

It looks great on her, @sephyelysian !
