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.

    1. Ooh, Ashbet, you did a fantastic job. He gorgeous in general, but the wig you made looks wonderfully realistic. I also prefer more streamlined wigs on my larger dolls, that flow like human hair, or as close as I can find.

    2. Wow, beautiful Chris, Ashbet! The wig is wonderful indeed :aheartbea

    4. Rune is a real cutie, Airike. I love the wig, too. Is it from Iple? I can't quite place it.

    6. I don't know what the dresses look like so I'm not sure what style you're going for, but Monique wigs are my personal favorite and really easy to style. Go for 7/8 size for Bliss. You can browse the styles here: http://www.facetsbymarcia.com/wigshop78.htm

    7. oooh this site! those are Monique wigs or they just carry the same ones? but the pictures are better and have color sample (unlike the Monique site ><) There were a couple that if the back is okay would be perfect but even so... Yay... I was mad when I lost this site. Think 'Jane Austen' hair...

      Lydia, Hope & Hilda are my pics ^^ close enough to not look bizarre with this http://iplehouse.com/home/shop/item.php?it_id=1621634861&nhn1=en

      Now I can book mark it again (on the new pc)
       
      #27 Lady Tiku, Jan 28, 2015
    8. I think they carry Monique wigs but I still buy mine off the Monique website, they tend to be cheaper there and have a larger selection of colors.

      I'm excited to see your Bliss in that dress! I want to get the long flowly white nightgown for Lacie but my wallet is screaming in fear and I just got a new puppy today who I have to train (he'll be a service dog like my other ten year old dog). So uh yeah no doll stuff for a long time lol
       
      #28 artisticadelle, Jan 28, 2015
    9. the Monique site never seemed to have colors 'in stock' when I go >< and they don't show the 'selection of colors' WITH the wig. But that other site was just a lot better for images if nothing else... i never even noticed the prices lol.

      As for the dress, I nearly dies when I saw it. I think Dexter and Bliss will need to do a 'romance novel cover shoot' with him in the uniform ;p Handy cover story that their 'modern' lives are as actor/models, soooooooo much freedom of clothing choice ^^. I was going to get the gown&robe too but passed on it for 'day wear' first. If it's around much later and I have cash I'll get it eventually.

    10. Thank you so much, Ashbet! He is my first big male doll and I am getting used to his size but I love him to bits! I might some day try to make him a darker wig (brown or ginger) to see how he will look like :-) It is not very visible on pictures, but he even have a light freckling :aheartbea

      Thank you so much, vermont chick! Yeah, the wig is Iple indeed. This one in saddle brown: http://iplehouse.com/home/shop/item.php?it_id=1570310195&nhn1=en. It is a very nice fit on his head, stays well even without wig cap or some kinds of "sticker" :)

    11. Hey, can anyone tell me how wide the hips are on an nYID girl? I know the circumference measurement, but I need to know the width. I need to know if they'll fit in a doll wheelchair I have, I'm trying to figure out what body I should get for a particular doll I'm planning.

      Thanks in advance!
       
      #31 Kiyakotari, Jan 28, 2015
    12. Does anyone have a Bibiane head on the Nyid body? I'm really wanting to grab one whenever I can get the money saved and the custom doll system is up... It is between her and Stella, but if you don't have either, any SID/EID heads would be helpful!
       
      #32 Animethemed, Jan 28, 2015

    13. Thanks! I thought it might be that wig, except it looks longer on Rune than it does on Iple's sale page. I've been having trouble finding good wigs for my nYID boys. Most 8/9 wigs appear to have too much hair. I guess NYID boys have slimmer heads than SIDs.


      @Animethemed: She's not a Bibi or a Stella, but here is SID Grace on the nYID body. I like it so much I decided to make it permanent.

      I sat one of my girls on a measuring tape. You need at least 5 inches for the doll. If your chair seat has an interior measurement of at least 6 inches, that will allow for both the doll and whatever clothing she is wearing, with a little room to spare.
       
      #33 vermont chick, Jan 28, 2015
    14. Your Grace is lovely! She looks wonderful on the nYID body!

      If it helps, Andy wears the same wig Rune does, but in sienna not saddle brown. Andy has a rounder face/head than most of nYID boys do, and he can actually fit on the SID man body without a bump on the back of the neck. He also wears a 7/8 silicone headcap under his wig to keep it from sliding. The wig fits him really well and doesn't look as long as Rune's is, but that's probably due to him having a wider face.

    15. Thank you, this helps! Is 5 inches the actual width measurement of her hips?
       
      #35 Kiyakotari, Jan 29, 2015
    16. Thanks, artisticadelle. Andy looks so cute in that photo!

      I wasn't quite sure how you wanted the measurement, so it's the width of space the doll takes up when sitting. When I measured around the hips (side seam to side seam) the measurement was the same. Give or take 1/4 inch for tape measure slippage against the resin.

    17. I boxed my girls bum in (boxes beside AND behind) sitting with knees at the table edge as well as the boxes to keep them alligned straight. yes it's 5 inches across but you need it to be 6 inches deep... It was 6 1/4 but I allowed for the bit of fabric I couldn't get out of the way. And my measure was the space between the boxes that had room for her hips snuggly fit
       
      #37 Lady Tiku, Jan 30, 2015
    18. Thank you both, that's perfect! :aheartbea. You've told me all I need to know.

    19. [MENTION=51298]artisticadelle[/MENTION] Andy always makes me smile!
       
      #39 fishcake, Jan 30, 2015
    20. Aw thank you! Have another picture of him then :D
      And for anyone interested, I scanned some patterns for nYID boys, the sweatshirt/long sleeve shirt one, and Andy is wearing one of the results of that pattern in this picture. THe pattern also fits on SID girls. I'm linking a tutorial I made because my patterns alone are confusing as heck and kinda gross looking but as you can see they make pretty things ;)
