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 Fashion Doll Discussion - Part 12

Oct 27, 2016

    1. I wish! No, My sister and I made several Storyteller inspired pieces way back in the nineties. It was back in the day before the Internet, so we didn't have access to still photos. I still have 'the Soldier and death', and the Storyteller. And one of my sister's very first sculpts was of Jim Henson, which I also still own.

    2. @MB Lilac That picture is awesome! Is Lawrence's wonderful, well worn outfit from your original Soldier?
       
    3. Thanks! The outer jacket with the ragged leather strips was removable, so Lawrence could borrow it, but I had to sew him a new 'old-looking' shirt to wear under it. I was also very lucky that I still had the same 'peel and stick' dollhouse flooring to create a new set of cards as the ones glued all over the set.

    7. I love their outfits and the details of the cloak borders. Yvette's cloak I would 100% wear in real life.

      Also, where did you get the bow and arrows if you don't mind me asking?
       
    8. Thanks. I made the bow and quiver of arrows. I have all the instructions in a tutorial on my website - Bow & Arrows - Tutorial

    9. Ohhh, MB Lilac, Eden and Yvette are a darling couple! Costumes totally gorgeous, and Eden's archery set is so superb! <3<3

      Iplehouse's event has started today, but there is no mention of the FIDs :whee: Mind you, I would have been tempted, so it's probably just as well...
       
    10. I'm hoping that they'll get added to the event in December. Either way, I definitely want a Dane.
       
    11. Finally painted my Doria! :3nodding: She has been chilling in the box for several month - I had to clear some space to spray MSC and I just could not get to it... But finally she is out and about! Don't judge me to harshly - it's my third face up ever :lol: Her eyes are still on the way (she is meant to have bright golden eyes) and I hate the wig with passion (a new one is althou on the way, but it's 22 weeks wait). I did all I could to at leas style it a bit, but it is still far from what I want for her. Still - she is presentable, so I'm sharing - baby steps :lol:

    14. Oooooo, perhaps the soldier haunts the palace? Your photos tell such good stories.
       
    15. Thanks. No, he's there to deal with a bunch of devils who've taken over the palace.....

    17. @MB Lilac, A wonderful picture! Yes, I can see the romance in the air!
       
    18. Looks like the FIDs are up for sale again for December! Does anyone know if they've said they'll release a new sculpt this month? And if so - how far into the month do they normally do so? I'm wanting to order a doll this month but I want to hold off to see any new releases first, just in case!!!
