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. IM! She looks great in that shot! I LOVE the angle and perspective of it!

      AND! Here's Allesta as she currently sits! Eyes are glass stone/bead/things that I'm pretty sure were at some point either in a clear vase, or a fish bowl for decoration. Either way, they're clean now and have been sitting in a bowl for AGES waiting for me to have a use for them. Not her 'final' eyes, IF I give her any (she should have 'face bondage', and if I can get it to sit properly, it'll cover her eyes), but they worked for today's little shoot. Not her final wig, either, just one of the 'spares' I have in a box. Her faceup is by Michele Hardy, and I think it's going to stay until it gets damaged or something, because I love it. And as a reminder, she's now on a Resinsoul Single Jointed body, as it gave her that thinner, smaller look.

      I hope to do a PROPER shoot with the poor girl soon, but for an update on how she's doing, I thought this worked well! I hope everyone likes her, at least a little! I plan to work on her some more later this week if I get the chance...my oldest is sick, was up sick all night, and it looks like my youngest is heading that way, too...so we'll see if this one passes through the family fast enough to NOT mess with my dolly plans!
       
    2. Wow, her modifications are looking great! And her makeup really is stunning. I hope everyone gets well soon!
       
    3. Thanks Pinkandyellow! Looks like my oldest is feeling a LOT better. He's going to school today. My 2 year old...I'm unsure on now. I know he's got a minor cold because of his stuffy nose, but he's not getting any worse physically. He's just being a pain in the neck and VERY tantrum prone the last 2 days. But he's 2...so...yeah, could just having tantrums to have tantrums. And if THAT is the case, I'll be able to work on her more this week, instead of be keeping a close eye on a sick child. I'm REALLY hoping to get her additive mods finished in the next few days (Really today or tomorrow...I have out of state company coming tomorrow night that I want to spend time with in the 4 days they're in town! Haven't seen the one in the couple that's a long time friend in about 3 years now!) so that I can get sewing SOMETHING for her to wear next week! And maybe even pick up the yarn I want to use for her wig, too!
       
    4. I did a few face-up styles on my Nabiya till i found one that i loved. I have been considering getting her eyelashes that aren't as long or trying to trim the ones i put on her. They just seem really long to me. I LOVE her body. She poses great and i don't have issues getting her to stand. I really love her.

    5. She's so pretty! I love the little beauty mark on her cheek! And her lips look so luscious!

       
    6. Ahh everyone's Nabiyas are so cute!! :aheartbea:fangirl: I can not wait until Ashley puts the human Nabiyas up for sale again! She said they will be up in November and I've been checking her site and Etsy page daily lol. :sweat
      I yearn for a light tan human Nabiya, you have no idea...*_*
      I'm also wig and eye shopping for her already, I can't decide between a Monique Contessa in black and a Monique Lucky in Honey Blond! But I guess I'll probably get both eventually lol.
      Has anyone tried 10mm or 12mm eyes in her?
       
    7. Anya's-shadow: That is just amazing how ou transformed her body joints! You always amazes with such bold, and fearless makeovers.

      Crystallinewings: lovely face up and bushings. It's wonderful to hear that ou love her. :chocoheart

      Pinkandyellow: I went and bought a couple of those hand gloves to use as tops for Nabiya. They're great! I just need some time to show them off to everyone soon. Thank you!

      Zomboid: the dolls will be back in stock next week. As far as the eye size, both will work. As far as I can remember, the 10mm is more close to human realism, the 12mm is nice fitting.
       
    8. Hi all,
      Here's an Xmas Nabiya with kissy red lips! The top she's wearing is from Claires fingerless glove. I guess I could even add straps to it to make it more dressy, but the top holds on really well on her. I've got another one I'm working on with another fingerless glove, a super long one that could go as a dress. More to come later!:

      Beautiful pictures!! :fangirl: Wow, that is a glove? It really looks like it was made for her! I'll look around for fingerless gloves once my Nabiya is home. :) One question: Is she white skin in the above pictures? It kinda looks like normal skin aswell.
       
    10. zomboid: she's normal skin, but I took her photo in bright sunlight, so she appears lighter.
       
    11. Its been a while since I have posted some spam of Delphinia .
      Its seems like she has made a new friend recently.

      I need to get some new pictures of Im! I've been shirking! -slaps self- Maybe later today. :)

      Emma in her Christmas dress.
       
    18. Both of the new photos are lovely!

      And...HI! Again! Cirquemom! I like seeing other people I know from the BBB and RS discussion threads in other dolly threads, too! Your girl looks GREAT in that wig, and the fabric of her dress is just darling!
       
    19. cirquemom, it's so nice to see a full picture of Emma! I was squinting trying to see her in your pic of your RS/BBB crew, 'cause I'm such a Nabiya fan! She is really lovely. I loooove her eyes.
       
    20. Omg I just paid for my Nabiya today and she's already been shipped!! :o:D:...(:aheartbea I can't believe how fast Ashley is, this is by far the quickest and most pleasing doll purchase I've had so far! She even refunded me the difference in shipping! :fangirl: The tracking number isn't working yet but hopefully it'll work tomorrow. I can't wait! I've been dreaming about Nabiya since I discovered this mold.
