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.

Help finding or making jointed 'claw' hands

Apr 16, 2024

    1. Wondering if anyone has advice about or knows of an artist/company who actively makes doll hands (preferably jointed) with long sharp nails, or that look like animal claws (not paws but hands with claws, with or without fur or scales). For example, Soom's Idealian long nail jointed hands and super long nail hands; I think Loong Soul and Impldoll have previously had claws for specific dolls too. I'm just wondering if there's something more accessible in terms of being made more frequently, as it seems like hands like these are usually from limited/special release dolls that are only offered once in a while. *_*

    2. For animalistic jointed hands, that's going to be basically only limited release. But human hands, that's not as hard. Story of Second Day on IG released long nailed jointed hands not too long iirc or you can buy normal jointed hands and just mod them by basically making acrylic nails for them, I think there's tutorials about that, I'd have to look again.

    3. Hey, unfortunately I don't have a provider for hands with movable joints and long, claw-like fingernails. But Iplehouse always offers so-called fantasy hands. At SartoriaJ you can also find hands with long fingernails as option parts.
      Otherwise, search in Etsy. There are many artists there who specifically offer 3D printer products made of resin. For example ARTbyNATRIA (Huli.Dolls). She once created a vampire with very scary clawed hands. She would definitely print hands like these out of resin for you.
      Good luck :thumbup
