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.

Lee-el : 90cm Dolls

May 2, 2013

    1. I've finally come up with a name for my incoming girl :D She is going to be named Clair de Lune and my previous doll a F60 is Elise I think that is enough clues for where I find my names :D
       
    2. She is home now and I'm a bit dissapointed yeah the faceup was free but she has a scratch on one of her eyebrows blotches that seems lighter thank god that it was on the part that her wig covers and a black ear :/ or atleast blackened and wierd dirty spots all over her body lucky for me I got eraser sponges at home but the biggest problem I have with her and I don't really know what to do about is this [​IMG]
      One of her arms just kicks and the other want's to jump out all the time :/ and her legs are reeeeally floppy I couldn't get her to stand at all oh yeah eventually one time i suceded but that was only when her booty was sticking out alot on the back because her back is really curved so she sag's alot don't know if that's the right word I used google translate :)
      What should I do? I wanted to love her I really do but right now it doesn't feel like that.
      And oh yeah If and only IF you want her to have reaaaaaaaaally big boobs that are way to big for her small face you should order the large otherwise if you only want big boobs order the medium believe me they are big enough can take pictures later today and show :)
       
    3. Glad you were able to clean her up! Sounds to me like she needs some restringing. From your description, the arm string knot may be stuck somewhere in one arm and needs to be moved into the chest cavity. That will even out the tension in the arms.
      Sounds like the body string just needs some tightening. Did she come with a string puller? You will need that. I definitely use the one that came with my boy. It's been too long since I received my boy, but he may have been loosely strung as well. Many companies do this to minimize breakage during shipping.
      Take her apart. Get to know how she works. It will help you greatly when you pose her, when she is clothed.
      I hope you like her!
       
    4. I have taken her apart and reknotted the string so it is shorter but i don't know if it is her weight or what it is but her legs and knees "dislocate" every time I pick her up and they just go everywhere it still feels like she needs a bit more fixing gonna suede her later too so she holds poses at all i am really dissapointed with how she is right now but she really is beautiful oh btw I need pics of naked Guy buts sitting down in a 90degree angle with their legs wanna see how they look because she just looks wierd like she could never wear pants sitting down XD
       
    5. [MENTION=59458]Ebichu[/MENTION] - Are you okay now? That hurts me to see. I am sorry she is giving you so much trouble! I hope you can get her situated so she can make you happy soon. Have you ever wired any dolls before? Some of my friends do that to their dolls and they act much better with wire in them. I look forward to photos when you have the chance.
       
    6. I'm currently at the emergencyroom and have been for two hours and the hook are still in my finger XD but I'm just patiently waiting :) it's gonna be a week before i can get her together again because I'm going to my moms tomorrow and going to be there for a while and clair is at my ex apartment right now he was gonna help me :) but I'll update as soon as I can and is it wierd to worry more about the hook getting taken out whole than my finger? XD
       
    7. ... 'you know you are a ball joint doll dork when?' :lol:
       
    8. @Ebichu - Oh, I am sorry. Okay, take care of yourself!!! You can always get another hook, so it will be okay. Calm down!!!!! Some first time introductions don't go so well. I am sure with a little time she will warm up to you and you will like her better. I am sorry she bit you though. Naughty girl!!!
       
    9. You made me LOL a LOT that was exactly what i was thinking too XD I'm like it's gonna take longer for me to get a new hook and put her together than for my finger to heal and i would rather have the hook right now and put her together I can be without my finger for a while XD
       
    10. She was like I wanted to bite your finger off but i'll settle with an injured finger XD she is beautiful otherwise didn't got time to take pics of her face before all this but you will get some pics on tuesday :)
       
    11. So if anyone want's to know :) everything went ok the hook is out and both it and my finger is in one piece even though the hook is a little bit bent and my finger has a small hole and is sore, I had to walk home from the emergencyroom and my ex's apartment is on the way and I'm stubborn so I decided to take Clair with me on the way so I could take her measurements and draft patterns for her when I'm at my moms this weekend so even though she is in pieces it's gonna be some measurement taking now and watch a movie before i go to sleep and if anyone wants I can take a pic of her beautiful face with her eyes and wig :)
       
    12. Please do take a picture of her, Ebichu! I'm considering getting one myself, and I'd like to see an owner's picture before I make up my mind.

      I'm glad your finger's all right.
       
    13. I managed to fall asleep last night before i had the chance to take any pics :) and got to my moms today :) but will take pics as soon as I get home again :)
       
    14. Does Lee-el use paypal? I really can't wait to see Selena, I think she is stunning!
       
    15. @Ebichu - I am glad she did not bite your finger off! That reminds me of how cats act when you want to pet them when they aren't in the mood! Maybe your girl was not in the mood! I am happy to hear your finger is on the mend. I found one thing that helps me to maneuver hooks. I use a piece of floral wire and locking pliers. I make a U shaped loop with the wire and hold the ends of the wire with the pliers and pull. If you only use pliers they can slip too easily. Also, a bent piece of floral wire is stiff and I can push it through leg pieces with the elastic string easily. Some people use ribbon but it is not stiff and I have trouble getting it in the narrow spaces of legs. I hope that makes sense to you.

      Yes!!! I would love to see as many photos as you would like to share of your new doll. I find so much joy seeing new dolls and well loved dolls of others! I am sure she is very beautiful! I don't have a Lee-el but maybe someday! I am enjoying being a lurker for now!
       
    16. Don't know if they do or don't it should be on their website in that case lee-el.net
       
    17. Now I saw what you wrote I thought you wrote layaway XD
      Yes they used Paypal when I was going to pay for my selena :)
       
    18. Cool thanks for the info!
       
    19. So sorry to hear about your hand Ebichu. Glad it's on the mend!
