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.

Loongsoul Doll 1/4 doll discussion

Sep 28, 2011

    1. Wow she looks lovely!!!
       
    2. Venetica, wow! She is so gorgeous! Love the pic!
       
    3. @Venetica: Omagawd! She's gorgeous >3< Thanks for taking the time to take the pic despite your difficoult situation.

      Yeah. Chocolate & Dolls. The ultimate 'make me happy' combo *0*
       
    4. the clear tail actually is very pretty!! It has a gold hue to it. If you wanted some color you could paint or just blush a bit.

      I recently decided I need chris D; but MoC is away til the 24th!! I hope they don't sell out before then ~_~!!!

      Did anyone order Chris Sybil or Celia? All the owner photos I've seen so far have been Lotus. Gorgeous as she is I hope to see some owner photos of the other siren girls soon :3
       
    5. I'm looking forward to more owner pics as well. If Jeeryama doesn't sell out/ take them down too soon, I may cave and buy one. I'm still not sure which one though. Liking the clear tail though!
       
    6. I'm waiting on Chris and Sybil. I'm pretty sure there are a couple of other people who ordered Celia and Sybil, but I think I'm the only Chris order in the thread. Lotus definitely seems to be the most popular, and the owner pics are making me wish I could add her to the collection! My order is a layaway, but I have the money to pay it in full if the dolls come in from LS before it ends. I'll be sure to do some pics, especially of Chris.

      I'm kind of on the fence over the clear tails. The good thing about the clear tails is I have so many options for painting. I'm thinking about giving one of them a koi type tail, with a white, orange and black pattern. But I've never painted on transparent resin before, and I didn't find much information on it either. I'm also concerned about anything I paint rubbing off at the joints.
       
    7. I'm wondering how it would look to dye the clear resin with Rit Dye.
       
    8. @catw07: I know if I dye clear plastic/resin with copic markers, it stays see-through :3 However, as copic marker dye needs alcohol to make the resin accept the color, it's a pretty permanent solution. You won't be able to remove a dye gone wrong, so one really only should do it with scrap pieces.

      Also, I believe the mermaids are for sale until the limited number is ordered.
       
    9. I just ordered a Loongsoul Mermaid Chris! So excited! She's so cute :) Can't wait to see her. She will be my first resin doll. I'm so scared I'm going to break her eek! How fragile do you guys think the transparent wings and fin are?
       
    10. Does anyone know if the head sculpts for the siren girls are original or are they existing LS heada. Celia kind of looks like momo but I'm not sure.. Also I noticed fir the mermaid you can buy an additional human body-- then you ca n also buy a bust piece. Does that mean the additional human body wouldn't have a bust piece??
       
    11. Just thought I'd leave a note, not sure if anyone has said it yet or not but these girls have really thin legs, they fit Minifee and slim clothes really well.
       
    12. Aww~ she's adorable! I've been browsing Loongsoul's site, and oh wow are their dolls are beautiful!
       
    13. Any more mermaids arrive yet? Also, hi Peachy! Fancy bumping into you on this thread. :XD:
       
    14. @RoyalBarjack: As far as I know, the mermaid head sculpts are all new. If you order the additional human body, the bust is included. The reason you can also buy a bust piece by itself is for people who don't want a full human body, but want to replace the default M bust with L or S. It won't fit the bra part though, and won't have the holes for the wings either.
       
    15. Hahaha, heya Cat! :) I See we both like loongsoul. XD
       
    16. Has anyone gotten an update on dolls? I know Mint On Card got a shipment in, I hope to see some more people getting their dolls.
       
    17. I haven't heard anything. I did a layaway for Sybil through Jeeryama on eBay and paid it off about a month ago. I have no idea how long the wait will be. Has anyone else who ordered on eBay heard anything?
       
    18. @periwinklestars: jeeryama let me know a while ago, that she's expecting the shipment that contains my Lotus in August. Soooo.... It could be any day now ;P

      Also, having MoC on my facebook-watchlist, I know they aren't through sorting out the Loongsoul shipment (or they would have remaked something like 'all customers who's order has been in the shipment have been contacted now'. At least that's what they used to do with the last few shipments. Might be quite a big shipment this time.
       
    19. Snowy, thanks for the info. I haven't heard anything from jeeryama, but I hope my doll is in that shipment :) Do you know if she orders the dolls from Loongsoul before the layaways are paid in full? If not, mine may not be ready yet.
       
    20. @periwinklestars: I asked, that's why I know. ;) I think in the case of Loongsoul she orders them when half othe amount is paid. I know she didn't order her when I ordered her with her, but she already had an estimate after I asked her two weeks after my second payment. I got one part of the layaway from a friend for my birthday and thus ended up finishing the payment a month early ;P

      If you are insecure, I'd just ask. Christine is very kind and usually can provide answers to questions like that within 48 hours during work days.
