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?

    1. I own a doll from Lillycat and one from Atelier Momoni. I love them both so so so much and plan on getting more dolls from them. I will say, though, that Atelier Momoni is not the best communicator and I am rather frustrated with her sometimes, but the dolls are amazing posers!

      Other companies that I have om my wishlist include Rumpeldoll, Le Compagnie des Radis, Le Mouton en Sucre, Dust of Dolls, Little Rebel Dolls and Irrealdolls. But I don't own any of their dolls yet.

    3. While I typically prefer large dolls I have to say I'm blown away by the craftsmanship of the tiny Nene Doll Bela by Runyadim from Mexico. 8cm and double jointed! Overall my favorite has to be either ACDC's Tink or Harucasting's Maji.

    7. Atelier Momoni for me. I love the Pitusa sized dolls and the fact they can be young or "older" depending on how you style them. I find them very versitle, and the posing is amazing!

    8. Thanks so much for this thread. I like to support independant shops and crafters whenever possible. This thread is full of info that I can browse through and find dolls that I otherwise wouldn't know about.

      My favourite that I have discovered is Metis Doll Studio. The face sculpts are just really gorgeous. I plan to get one at some point in the future.

    9. Harucasting is my favorite individual artist. I also have a rap1993 girl on order, but since she’ll be my first, I guess I can’t quite comment too much about them yet. :sweat

    10. I don't know about 'favourite independent artist'. There are a lot of artists I admire. I can say that the most recent BJD that had the wow factor is Cachou by Le mouton En Sucre. It took 2 years' work to create him/her:

      They made Re-Gliss as well:

    11. The artist is amazing too!!! I asked them for a portrait commission on their little chameleon mojito to commemorate my little scaly son when I lost him, and they really did a beautiful job with him.

    12. My top three is probably
      Villitunes all her sculpts are just to cute.
      Dodollsdream the way they sculp is so elegant, everything they make is absolutely stunning.
      Studio.bitamin they have a more anime style to their work that’s absolutely adorable. One of the sculpts they’re working on at the moment (Suzuran) is to die for.

    15. Chimera Doll, Joy Doll, Bimong, and Glowmoon Doll are some of my favorite independent artists. I love either the more realistically sculpted and proportioned dolls like Chimera and Joy Dolls or the more cartoonish style of Glowmoon dolls.
