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

Jul 27, 2011

    1. Man, every Claude just looks so fantastic. X3 <3 They are all positively gorgeous; I never get tired of looking at the pictures you're all posting!

      carmen - Ooh, this is exciting news! It would be cool to have him flying home to you right after the layaway is paid. :3

      I really hope mine's in the makeup stage as well. I paid my layaway off a few weeks ago so I hope my guy is getting close to shipping. <3
       
    2. ebi -- I'm afraid of pulling or pushing too hard, in case I break something. Maybe if I run a super-thin nail file around the space between the parts instead, I could pry the pieces apart. Still, I'm afraid to break them.

      MagnaStorm -- great faceup! And I love his wig. Is that a LeekeWorld?
       
    3. I have less than $200 to pay on my Claude and he will be paid on the 26-27 of this month :D
       
    4. vermont chick: thank you! His wig is from Iplehouse, but I wouldn't recommend it. It just doesn't stay styled and out of his face.
       
    5. I wonder if that's the same wig I bought in brown. I don't even try styling it, because it just falls down again. On the other hand, I rather like it down in his eyes.
       
    6. Looking good, DreamySarah. I know you are going to enjoy him. Your girl doll certainly seems impressed, as well she should be. Claude is one gorgeous hunk of resin.

      You might try uploading your photos to a free program like Photobucket or Flickr before you post them. That will allow you to resize your photos if necessary and get them to display right side up.
       
    7. Sweet Claude, DreamySarah! Looks like he has a Fair Maiden already! :)
       
    8. So excited that Iplehouse will be releasing the Elemental Guardians for sale from the 1st-31st of Dec! I want to get a Claude. :) Really hoping he'll be available in light brown skin.
       
    9. Ebi - Is the body you put the helmet Claude head on a SID female body? Im really interested in the proportions of a Claude head on a SID female body!
       
    10. honestrabbit, if it helps, MadamMauMau put Claude on her EID woman body here.
       
    11. thanks a lot for the link!!! :D
       
    12. Oh no, please not a Claude on a woman body <.< He's too man to have boobs XD

      I can't believe it, but soon I'm going to have a Claude too, he should be shipped out soon *__* Can't wait to have him home!
       
    13. And mine will be paid off in a day or two <3 so excited!
      especially when I think about all the stress I went through for that doll xDD;;; (when he sold out a day before the end of his ordering period. just as I was about to place my order )
       
    14. I first saw Claude on SDink's Flickr and I knew I had to have one. Now Iplehouse does this wonderful event... And I promised myself no more boys (especially that big) but...
       
    15. dooo iiiiiiiiit
      xD
       
    16. Is there anyone in here who ordered the armor with blushing and is having issues with it already (chipping, scratching, etc.)? The brunt of the damage seems to have come in the shipping process. As I rather figured this was going to happen, I am not going to classify this as a complaint-really! I am just wondering what a solution might be. I took a piece to a hobby store to get a spray paint colour match ... and it's not champagne gold metallic, let me tell you :lol:I hope not too many are having to worry about this already, but if you have a colour match, please let us know!
       
    17. Yes, I got a huge scratch on the helmet the first day (it didn't come that way, but just a simple brush against a hard surface and there it was.) I wasn't too thrilled with the blushing anyway -- if I'd known it was just going to be a spray paint job I would have done it myself :) I'm going to redo mine and distress it anyway.
       
    18. Maumaus Claude on the female body is perfect for what Im looking for, I have a Claude head on the way and I think with the right face up she will be pretty much my most perfect doll, thank you so much Maumau, I love your dolls!
       
    19. Can you guys post some more pics of Claudes? I'm going thru withdrawal..and Iple has told me twice they'll ship my guy out..lets hope the second shipping date is correct! I need Claude pics!
