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.

Naked or not? That is the question...

May 23, 2008

    1. Nekkid Puki for the win!! Pukis have such awesome bodies. I think my little guy is adorable with clothes on, but I just love having him hang around in the buff sometimes. I know many other puki owners feel the same way. They are just such great little nudists. :lol:

      My bambicrony gun is nude sometimes or shirtless a lot, simply because I love the sculpt of his body. I don't think I could ever own another 26cm tiny other than a bambicrony simply out of love for their thin, detailed bodies. Hell, my gun has a nicer bod than my tan el. :lol::lol:

    2. I agree with sadistic!! My puki mostly wears clothes, though sometimes she runs around with just underwear ^^;
      Its mostly cuz i just adore her body, its so cute, and she reminds me of a funny little baby.
      But- with clothes i get to show her very girly personality!

      I dont really see a problem with little dolly nudity, i just really want people to always label it with 'nudity' cuz i might be looking at a Coco i didnt realize only had a necklace or something and my mom would come in and get freaked out.
       
    3. OOps! Then I am guilty for not labelling my posts. Sorry.
       
    4. Well then, just lable the post, "cute nudity" and forget about it, let the elves be elves, LOL :)
       
    5. I'm like you Valli in that my BonBon, CoCos, and Bracken are all nude whereas my Moona, BC Kumi, and HD Daisy are all clothed.

      Part of that is due to the fact I haven't a clue about making clothes, although one day I will actually give it a go, the rest is down to the actual dolls themselves. I think because Kumi and Daisy are larger, more 'human' and childlike my mind is conditioned to want to cover them up. With Moona I think it's because she looks so delicate.
      The rest I think is down to the small size and elven features which makes nudity seem so natural, plus the wonderful curves on BonBon and CoCo demand to be on full display, they are proud of their shapely bodies. Also we are used to seeing historic pictures of curvy idols and statuettes of deities from centuries ago, we see figurines and ornaments in shops of stylised rubenesque women, our minds associate them with the earth mother, etc so they don't seem vulgar.

      I have no problem with nudity unless it's presented in a degrading tasteless way. It's a shame I think that we are all socially brought up to regard naked bodies as 'bad'.
       
    6. Yey! for nude elves and other tinies. Now to convince the photo hosting sites. *sigh*
