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.

Iplehouse Elemental Guardian- Knight of Water Claude SID

    1. BernardMcSmeg I with Pandy. I actually saw one on the marketplace a few days ago so it shouldn't be too difficult to get your hands on a Claude C:

      *edit*

      So it just occurred to me that I could get another SID body and have it permanently wear the armor so I can always have my armored Claude, instead of constantly changing his clothes from his armor to his casual stuff. Especially considering he has two heads lol

      hmm, food for thought...

      *2nd edit*

      Arg his face-up is just bothering me for some reason, so I am going to try again. I hope I don't royally mess it up :<

    2. That might be very handy! Except... what if you start wanting another head for him? Then you will have the same problem all over again. You should just buy another doll all together. :D

    3. I don't have any pictures of the helmet-head at the moment, but I bought mine unpainted, and his face is all gray, just like the helmet! Also, the face-guard-thing is removable on mine, so that I can get to his face to paint it. Also, I was waving his sword around like an idiot because it was so big. I informed my husband that I was Arya and the sword was needle... :sweat

    4. ah, I'm so glad the face is unpainted!

      your boy is so handsome! <3 I think he is the blonde twin of mine! o.o mine is also rs, faceup A, unpainted armor, and is that wig IHW_M049? Because it looks very similar, and I ordered it in choco brown for mine.

    5. I love him in the darker skin, but i heard that the darker skin from iplehouse tends to turn green. I wish I liked him better in the white skin (opt.B)

    6. The green skin sounds like its more of an issue with the first few batches of realskin dolls. The more recent ones (including Claude) have UV protection in them, so they will not turn green as easily, or possibly not even as green at all. The skin should be fine as long as you keep the doll stored out of direct UV contact, and be careful not to have it in the sun for long amount of time.

      at least that is my understanding of it. ^_^

    7. snowgray Its grey?! So strange O_O. I am going to try and see if I can open my helmet in case I need to repaint the armor. The paint on the armor is... well... very easy to scratch off. The first time I dressed him in his knight outfit I scratched off some of the paint on his leg armor. I was a little peeved, but if I can repaint it easily I won't sweat it :D

    8. I am getting the armour and a friend of mine recommended sparying it with MSC when it arrived just to make sure...do you think this is going to help?

    9. It can't hurt...and like they say if the paint is coming off easily...it might be a good idea.

    10. Well, I didn't get the fullset 'cause my guy doesn't need it but that doesn't mean he won't have a sword ...

      just a question: when all the Claudes come in, will we be keeping this thread or is everyone going over to the EID/SID thread? do the other sculpts have their own threads? oh, and a reminder, when you get your guy, be sure to put him up here: http://www.denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?473818-IpleHouse-Claude-A-knight-in-shining-armor there are only two up so far...

    11. Well, I like this thread, so I say we keep it. C:

      Ban Sidhe ooh I really like that pic. He looks very cunning :3. (Nice sword too)

      UGH. I am never satisfied with the face-ups I give this guy - tonight I am going to try again and hopefully get it right.

    13. I dunno, I am kind of in favor of merging with the main thread. I think it would help to keep up activity and conversation about our dollies as time goes on. :D

    17. I'm wondering if the people who already got their Claudes can tell us when they ordered? I'm on the edge of my seat every day hoping my status will change from "Before shipping".

    18. &#8203;Teslithia I ordered mine July 27th, the day he came out and he arrived last Friday. Although, I did get his fullset (minus wig) so my order took a bit longer than people who just ordered the doll.
       
      #638 LiviLovelace, Sep 30, 2011
    19. I ordered 8-3 but paid in full on 8-8 and he arrived 9-16 (he was blank though)
       
      #639 Ban Sidhe, Sep 30, 2011
    20. I went all out on mine as well, fullset with face & everything, since he will be my first BJD. I ordered him right before he closed because I couldn't decide on the skin tone. I have a feeling I'm in for a long wait. XD
