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.

GardenOfDolls Nabiya 43cm discussion part 1

Sep 2, 2009

    1. If I'm right, only Popo and Nabi Kiss have been discontinued. The human and elf Nabiya, and Nabiyette Ashley does in ordering rounds/periods. I'm sure if you PM her here on DoA she'll be happy to give you any information you need to order one of her lovely girls!
       
    2. How's Allesta doing, Ayas? Have you gotten time to show off more of her lovely Undeadness?

      Here's some inspiration spams for ya.

    3. Ah ok, good deal, thanks for the info! I already have a Nabiya but I know a couple local friends who have been interested in her, so I'm glad she'll be available again in the future. ^_^
       
    4. Well, come on then, Keilee! Spam us! :P

      Meanwhile, look, guys! I got a pic that shows my little storm spirit's charm really well. :) Now I need to find her the stormcloud necklace I've been wanting her to have forever.

    5. Allesta has her additive mods in place, and waiting to be sanded and carved into looking good! but she had to be put on the back burner for a little while. Had my hubby's grandmother in from Australia (yeah, that's a LONG trip to make!) and now I'm trying desperately to get an outfit completed for my Planetdoll girl before a meet on Sunday! But once I get some housework done next week, I plan to go back to her to finish the additive mods! Then I'll...I don't know...drape her in fabric, or steal the clothes from one of the other minis, or something, to photograph her to show off again!
       
    6. pinkandyellow - Your girl is so pretty! I love her style! :D

      Ayas-Shadow - Looking forward to seeing pictures once you finish with Allesta's mods and find something for her to wear. ^_^

      Ok ok, here's some quick spam of my girl Natasha. d: I haven't done a proper photoshoot with her yet actually, but here's a shot from when a friend of mine and I took her to the local toy store and played with some of the displays there.

    7. Awww! Natasha's precious! She looks like she's in heaven in that toy store. ;)
       
    8. Thanks! We all had a lot of fun in the toy store that day. ^_^

      So, I'm pretty excited - I took some time to work on Natasha last night. First off, gave her bangs a trim since they were a bit uneven. Then I decided to restring her - I used a thicker elastic in her legs plus sueded them with moleskin. Next I tightened the string in her arms and wired them. What an amazing difference. She stands solid as a rock now (she was already good at standing on her own, but now she feels more sturdy) and can even stand on one leg by herself. The wiring in her arms makes her very poseable and much better about holding poses. I'm very pleased with how well the mods came out. Next, I'm working on adding a bit to the faceup she came with - going to re-do her eyelashes, but in the meantime I've already added some pink on her cheeks and reddened up her lips - will add gloss once the MSC has had a chance to sit over-night. I'll post more pictures soon!
       
    9. Wow, Keilee, that sounds awesome! Can't wait to see!

      Here's some spam in the meantime --

      I so love this pose. It was sort of a miracle that she stayed up.
       
    10. That's a great pose, I love her body language!

      And thanks, here's a picture of Natasha after the touch-ups and such. (:

    11. Wow, so pretty! Love those luscious lips. :D
       
    12. Thanks! ^_^
       
    13. Chillaxing after a busy day... there was a crazy summer storm that lasted only a few minutes, but boy did it wipe Im out. She loves her job. :) I just wish I could have managed to get a few shots of her in it!

      [​IMG]
       
    14. Tell Im to send a storm our way, we could use some rain! ^_~
       
    15. Who is making this doll - I guess she is not made in US ?

      I would like to buy outside US becurse of customs in Denmark and they take all parcels from USA.
       
    16. Garden of Dolls is in the US, yes. ^_^;;
       
    17. New Im spam! She had fun outside today in the aftermath of some of her good work. Nice, wet storm. Just what we needed around here. :)

    19. What a cute little tea set, elfqueenvik! And Delphinia's outfit looks lovely. :)

      We definitely need more Nabiya spam up in here. Calling all Nabiya handlers -- spam moar!

    20. I probably won't get her because she doesn't suit the style of the rest of my MSDs, the character I'd have in mind for her is very much a modern girl and the others are all fantastical and old-fashioned, but god I love her kissy face!!!!! I'd love this character, I have this thing about beauty queen teen idols and I can just see her being that sort of 'bitchy' no-nonsense teen. Can't you just see her pouting into a camera!

      And I love she's available in light tan, I love that light tan and I wish more companies offered a similar coloured resin. The light tan thing makes this so much harder.

      I'm going to look through some more and enjoy everyones pictures. Oh I wish I could just buy every doll I fancied, I hate being ruthless (when it comes to dolls anyway).
