I'm so excited for my Delphini!! She's on layaway as I mentioned in the waiting thread- I'm so glad that was an option and that I'm able to do so since I fell for her quick. She's going to be a goblin/fae type character and have some Luna moth accents (though I saw someone mention they are also doing a moth theme on another Moon- I promise I'm not copying you, I had the idea from one of the pics Frappzilla posted ^^; ) She's basically been my main motivation and incentive to do well workwise this semester. I'm happy I had the chance to order her! Edit: Updating because I'd rather not double post I thought my fellow enthusiasts might appreciate a thing I made back when I was working towards being able to order her-- here's hoping the picture isn't too big D:
This is so cool! I think goblin/fae is a really cool direction to take her in. What types of outfits are you thinking for her?
congrats. I paid off the second bit of mine so only one payment to go now. Whhheeee ooo. Lupa was expensive but I think it'll be worth it I hope. Beyond vuage ideas for a faceup I don't really know how i'll dress mine. I'm assuming they'll fit in with my neo victoriana crew so that should be fun to design anyway.
Whoops, sorry I never replied to you guys! Clotheswise I'm thinking of a kind of hybrid style of flowing white silk/burlap sack sort of look! She is one of the Fair Folk, but also definitely a lil gremlin. ^w^ I actually was going through a bit of buyer's remorse because of having to allocate money each month for layaway payment for a doll I won't see til... March I think. But I was looking back through Frappzilla's Insta including the photos of the body being packed and that's made me excited again!! I'm really looking forward to having her and now I know how to keep the excitement up. I'm also thinking of faceup looks, idk when I'll feel comfortable sending out a doll for faceup (haven't done it yet in my...9? years in the hobby) but I have a mental image of something scaly or with scale accents of some sort. But I'll figure that out more when she's here. She definitely does give off mermaid vibes despite my plans being in a different direction. OMG I want to hold her so bad tho
I paid my Lupi off and bought a mini lupi bloom too lol. I really gotta decide whether they'll be a modern sort of doll or fantasy or what. I guess i'll see when they arrive. That's usually what I do. I wait till the doll is here to do faceup and wig and then let them tell me their fashion style lol. I get ya on the layaway pain. I don't really like doing layaways, I find them stressful and prefer to just do lump sums but these art dolls are so much more expensive than the dolls I usually buy so layaway is my only option. But even so, I do find having to set aside that money every month and carefully budget everything extremely stressful. Oh to have infinite cash right?
With my new addition and so many dandelion moons arriving home soon, I thought it was time to make a database for these cuties: Dandelion Moon by Frappzilla (all sculpts) | Den of Angels I hope you all will add yours as they arrive as well. I'm so in love with my dandelion moon lyra, that just arrived last week. I've named her Willow:
Congratulations! I look forward to seeing her. I love the lupi sculpt (really all of them are quite precious) and all the resin choices Frappzilla offered.
I suspect the dark/deep ones are gonna be last because it's the hardest colour to cast. Which means a little more waiting for my lupi. But i'm excited.
I'm waiting on a mint Delphini and medium tan Lupi. I know the med tan babies have arrived and are being processed, but I'll be waiting longer until the fantasy colours come home too.
Yes I love the fantasy ones too, but they dont work with my story lines. (lucky for my wallet though..lol) Oh congrats! I know there are more colors expected soon, I hope your mint girl is in that delivery! I'm glad you get to enjoy your Lupi soon! Do you have names and styles selected yet? I'm so in love with deep! Congrats. I look forward to pics!
@Nikki'sNewObsession They’re going to be shells for Alice in Wonderland characters. They should have their own personas too though. I’ll have to learn who they are when they get here though. Delphini is the mock turtle and Lupi is the gryphon.
Oh that sounds wonderful. I look forward to seeing them! Willow's wigs are coming in the mail and I've preordered her eyes. I will take lots of pics even while she's blank once she has a wig that fits..lol Shes the 7 yr old daughter to my f65 angela and dollshe husky.
Actually it has been confirmed that both deep and ALL fantasy tones are being shipped together next week!
Yep but there will be delays as they have a little holiday for their wedding. It’s kinda nice being a part of their life event in a way. I’m trying to be patient, but I’m also really excited. These will be my first artist dolls and first fantasy dolls (except for the elf ears on my DOT U-i). Because they’re part of the tertiary cast in my crew they’re less defined which is kind of nice in a way. Hopefully there will be more freedom to learn their characters.
Ah! I just got an email with photos of my medium tan Lupi (as well as shipping quotes). They look great! I haven't done much with my BJDs in, uh, a while (off-topic vinyl dolls stole my brain and most of my energy) so they may sit for a bit once they get here until the next crafting bug takes me... but still! Quite exciting. ^.^
I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone's Dandelion moons! They're very cute, kinda regretting not getting one!
