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.

Introduction to SHIN's Pathway/Sanpomici-koubou

Aug 28, 2005

    1. Hi,dagnyevelyn-san
      I am very sorry for setting the price too high ......
      I noticed that I have not taken so much pictures of NANO-san,
      because she is the newest.
      I just put a few up to my site. I hope you find them nice.
      She is the first NANO-san which I am now owning.

      There is another Nano-san as OneOffModel, even if her eye hole is a little bit customized and her character is made strong minded.

      I finally made my avater.
      He is SD13-Show, my only Boy-Doll named "Shin-Bow".
      As his name says, He acts in place of me on my doll photos.
      But I think this small icon below takes more after me. I love it.

    2. Shin-san, what is the difference between one-off and finished? Does "finished" include sanding the seams?
       
    3. Hi, flanna-san!
      Yes,it is as you said!
      One-Off-Model is just maked-over.
      In case of Finished-Model, seams or parting-lines are sanded and taken off, and all the skin surface is sanded and the skin-texture is equalized.

    4. Dear Shin-san,
      Thank you for the links to the pictures of Nano-san! She's very beautiful.
      I don't think she is too expensive at all! I'd be willing to pay much more, but I'm glad the price isn't too high. Being a student, I live a rather luxury free life, and I'd love to have Nano in my life sooner than later.
      I love Nano with dark brown eyes. With lighter eyes, she looks a little like me!
      The Oneoffmodel Nano looks very strong willed. Nano is very versiltile. I like Nano with her standard appearence though. She's very classical and delicate.

      Thank you for sharing your pictures.

      Also, I think your avatar is neat. I love those glasses, and his beard!

      Bye for now!
       
    5. Hi,dagnyevelyn-san
      Thank you very much for your eternal love to nano-san!
      I am planning to put another nano-san onto One-Off-model page soon.

    6. Those poses are impressive. Sometimes it's hard to remember she's a doll, not alive.
       
    7. Oh! I'll be so happy to see more of her! I like her pictures so much.
      Thank you Shin-san!
       
    8. I really like the way the body can pose, and I like Nano, but Nanae is my favourite — is she limited, or can Nanae be ordered with the Thaasa body as a 'base-model'?

      Also, are wig and eyes included in the price for base-model, and do you select these at random, or can we make requests for colour?

      If wig and eyes ARE included, how much would the doll cost without wig and eyes?
       
    9. Hello, twigling-san!
      All THAASA-heads including NANAE are avalablde as base-model.
      Glass eyes and a wig are included in Base-model.
      Regular glass eye color is Brown.
      but you can chose one from my color stocks for One-off-models if it exists then.
      Wig is chosen by me from my stocks. I choose one which looks nice to the doll.
      The price, I am thinking, is 58,000yen without eyes and a wig.

    10. Hi,flanna-san,
      That's exactly I am persuing on my photos! Thank you!

      Hi,dagnyevelyn-san,
      Yes, one more One-Off-NANO-san just appeared on Sampomichi-Koubow shop.
      I think she looks very lady-like, does not she???

      8) SHIN
       
    11. welcome Shin-san!
      i think your dolls are beautiful!
      would hope to get one , One day.
      I'm impress with kisui especially~
       
    12. Hello, Kyoru304-san!
      I am very happy with your curious with KISUI-san.
      I made her boysh and sharp.

      8) SHIN
       
    13. thats exactly what i like about her! ^_^ kirei desu ne..
       
    14. Hi,Kyoru304-san,
      I think KISUI is the most delivered Thaasa-head in Japan.
      Homete kudasatte arigatou :grin:

    15. Hello Shin-san,

      :D I love your dolls. So expressive! And the double jointed knees are especially nice. I don't think I've seen any other double-jointed girls in this size (unless that one female by Dollshe was, but I don't know).

      Welcome to Den of Angels!

      - Kiya
       
    16. Hello,Kiyakotari-san!
      Thank you very much for thinking highly of THAASA's knees.
      It needed a extremely high designing technique and working techiniques, which allows THAASA knees to acomplish both natural right sitting, and easiest self standing!

      8) SHIN
       
    17. Cosmos is beautiful! She has lovely eyebrows. I want to be able to do esthetics better. I don't have much practice.
      Would the single head come un-painted? I'd prefer unpainted.. but I do love your work too..
      (oops I had spelled "cosmos" "comos") Oopsie
       
    18. Hi, dagnyevelyn-san!
      Thank you very much for checking the eyeblows, as I recently am pursuing how to draw eyeblows.
      It is true painting eyeblow is too difficult to be done as expected to be.
      I think lip-paint and eyeblow paint are the most important point to determine the face expression and "Value of Doll face".
      As,making-up onto reallistic head makes one's skill excellent,
      you'll have a big chance to get it with un-painted-NANO-san-head!!

      Yes, single head is delivered up-painted.

    19. I'd hope I could paint her well! She's so beautiful, I'm sure even a bad face-paint would look nice on her pretty features.
      I'd be happy if I could end up painting eyebrows like you do. Those are very realistic and detailed. Realism is important to dolls I think.
