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.

Favorite Independent Doll Artists?

Jan 21, 2018

    1. Red River Road is my most recent doll crush, their work is amazing. @_@ I still regret not buying a ridiculously well-priced work of theirs I saw on ebay a while back.

      Other favorites are Dust of Dolls, Orange Tea Dolls, Bishounen House, Misterminou and Plasticmoon. They're all gorgeous, beautifully stylized dolls and I hope to own one from ANY of them someday. :D I figure it's just a matter of keeping your finger on the pulse, being in the right place at the right time...

    2. Donn Kinney of Bishonen House. His dolls are full of awesome!
       
    3. My favorite is Nefer Kane. Her sculpts are all so unique and full of personality. Also love Irrealdoll, Dododoll, Nikki Britt and Connie Lowe. Tatyana Filenko of TaFidolls has the cutest faces! This thread is great; I'm seeing so many new artists to check out!

    4. Akhmel Dolls is my fav doll artist, I am DYING to own their Xiro, crazy unique dolls like that are my passion in this hobby <3
       
    5. There are a few independent artists whose work I own and love:

      Lumedoll
      Shinydoll
      tinybear (thesleepingelf)
      twigling (Artifex Kindred)

      Very sad I missed out on Seed Art's Wol and Summerbird's Viola. Will be purchasing TiffieBJDCrafts' Battholomew and hopefully Morningstar Dolls' Ballista if there is a re-release!

    6. I love my little Cuarto dragons and my Dream High micros.
      My Forever Virginia Briar and Argonautica Little Kio are all kinds of adorable.
      My Bishonen House Steve has more sheer attitude per cm than any other guy in this house...

      Picking a favorite is TOUGH! :lol:
       
    7. All of these look so amazing!
