Going through a not-so-good patch lately, so I'm focusing on my preexisting dolls instead of buying new ones. Good ol' Scarlet still rocks it, though! She Smolders by Yela Gatchalian-David, on Flickr
@AntarelNefertili - Your Scarlet is wonderful! I'll share your love for Scarlet (an under-rated sculpt) with also sharing mine. \ Imelda. Imelda Collins by luluna33, on Flickr

@Robyn_in_WA Their fits especially the details look incredible! You have a lot of skill, great job! I also love the fitting backdrop
@Robyn_in_WA , even though i'm mostly read-only for ages, i still can't help but feel the need to admit how admirably detailed your dolls looks in this outfits. It suits them greatly!
Thanks @Kaname Kimura !! It’s been a fun ‘job’ getting the group dressed! Thanks so much @sageyufi !!! It’s taken a while to do all the research, find the fabrics and get them all made! Just one dressy gown to go now! Thanks lots @tenko Lia !! I loved the books and the movie and making a group of my dolls to represent them has been a lot of fun (and work!). Thanks!
@Robyn_in_WA You know how insanely talented I think you are. The uniforms are incredible, and your group looks wonderful!
Just wanted to drop in and share a picture of my chonky old cutie pie Evan, since he's one of those older sculpts that's rarely seen anymore: link He got The Works™ this year: new faceup, new wig, new eyes, new elastic, new hot glue sueding, knee mods (watch pins to hold together the old two-piece joints), and I made him some t-shirts!
He's cute - I love that he got some upgrades this year. Our "old" dolls never really get old do they - they can always be given some new touches and made new again
@Quirked - I'd forgotten how adorable that sculpt is. It's nice to see one still around. He's looking great!
@Quirked He's got that look of innocence and pure wonder, so cute! Love the shirt you made for him too. You've made what is essentially a basic into something so luxurious and clean!
@LyanneNZ : Thank you! And agreed, they never really do get old -- after giving him an overhaul, it was like having a new doll! @Sianserais : Thank you! I love the older Iplehouse sculpts so much. I have an Akando as well, but he's currently in pieces (needs a repair). @sageyufi : Thank you! His innocent look is what I love so much about him. It's such a contrast to the Super Hero body that he's on, lol. I keep thinking "sometimes Baby Girl is a grown man." And t-shirts are my favorite thing to make for my dolls. New doll? They get a t-shirt, unless t-shirts aren't their thing (i.e. fantasy character). This particular one I have on him is one I built up to making because I only had a small amount of fabric to work with, and he ended up with around 5 or so other t-shirts while I was building up the courage to cut into it.
@Quirked - Definitely love Akando too. Mine was my first Iplehouse doll, and he's still got pride of place in the center of my display. When you get yours back together, I hope you'll share pics!
