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.

    2. Bit of a random question: does anyone have a doll/pics they could show me of Island Dolls blue resin? I'm curious about it but I'm having a hard time finding good reference pictures.

    3. Thinking about getting a Island Doll Eric for my first boy doll. What do you think?

    6. The face looks like Odin or possibly Thor in tan.

    7. It does look like him doesn't it? I think they made the cleft in his chin more pronounced...but the nose is definitely similar.

      Thank you!

    8. Yeah that is true he looks like he has been altered unless someone knows of another Islanddoll sculpt this size. The crease in his lip and his nose are like Thor too, but the wide chin is more like Odin. Islanddoll Amy is a 1/4 female doll, so the combo is funny, in a sad way.

    9. Hey guys! I've been scoping out the Island Doll Veranoen and was debating about making him a grail doll. I'm a little put off by the size, though, as I don't really like working with dolls that big, partially because the resin feels weird to me. Does anyone happen to know what the resin of the larger dolls feels like when compared to Luts, Spiritdoll, Soom, Blue Fairy, Dollzone or especially Dream of Doll?

      (Sorry for the long list, those are the types I know well enough to comment on...!)

    10. I have a WS IslandDoll and a WS Dollzone and they feel the same to me. The resin looks very similar too.
      I love the IslandDoll male body they are well made and pose great, I have the 60cm body.

    11. Thanks for the quick reply! That's good to hear - I probably won't be able to buy for a couple years (fingers crossed that he'll still be available...!) but from this I'm going to make him a grail doll.

    12. ack, lots of big images, sorry D:

      jumping on board with some photos of my Island Dolls~ The first is a YO-SD Bobo. I won him from a raffle at a local con in 2011, and when you look at his promo pictures, the difference between the photos and the actual doll are astounding O_O I've never found pictures on the internet of Bobo in detail, so here's a few, with default faceup... I think.

      Kyrie genderbends beautifully, and aside from needing restringing and probably a new faceup, he's held up to every sort of abuse for the past four years ^^; I take him with me to various locations and use him in multiple photoshoots since he's so portable. He holds his poses decently for a little doll.

      I have two Islanddoll dolls and I gotta say, they pose really well compared to my Ringdoll Armand. The other is an Islanddoll Crystal, Siriana, so if anybody wants detailed pictures or any questions answered about her as well, I can offer up my experiences. Of the three dolls I own, Siriana holds her poses the best. I didn't need to suede either of the island dolls. The one problem is that Siri has a very thin nose, which annoys me since it appears translucent in certain lightings or casts a really sharp shadow, but her captivating eyes make up for it. I also find that both dolls' faceups are decent around the eyes but really lacking around nose/lips. Noses get washed out and lips look flat in photographs. I'll probably have to redo both of them soon because I like me some definition!

      For both, resin appears to be a bit on the yellow side in photographs, even under cool lighting.

    13. Any idea on wait times for Island Doll right now? I think I'm the only one in the waiting room o_o (I ordered directly from them if that makes a difference)

    14. Hi, first time posting here. :) I'll be ordering a Norse Myth Odin soon and I need some help with his eye size. His measurements list his eyes at 16mm, but the eyes in his product photos look huge... (way too big for my liking). If anyone has this guy, how do 14mm or 12mm fit?

    15. Hello. Owner of Island Doll Amber here. I bought her in environmental resin, island colour. It's fantastic and the pics don't show the real beauty of this doll. From each angle she looks different and she's so much cuter in person.
       
      #195 Lady Mariko, Jun 22, 2015
    16. Nice to know! I don't think I've seen any owner pics of Amber.
       
      #196 Yumeko-chan, Jun 24, 2015
    17. I shall post her pics soon. She really is an adorable doll :) Worth every dollar I spent on her :)

    18. Does anyone have this body?

      I'd love to know what it's like, and how it compares (size wise) to other bodies...
       
      #198 VampireAngel13, Jun 30, 2015
    19. Anybody else having problems with the website? I haven't been able to access it from my cell nor my laptop for several days now.

      ETA: Never mind, it's working now :)
       
      #199 Yumeko-chan, Jul 3, 2015
    20. Hello everyone! I've been looking at Island Doll as they have an option for a Dark Tan skin, but the doll I wanted to purchase doesn't have that option in her list - is there any way to custom order a doll through them?
