My Winny has ARRIVED! I love her so much - she's GORGEOUS! Absolutely perfect little thing. My first BJD and I have to say, the photos do NOT do these dolls justice. My Little Mish is PERFECT! Box opening pictures and more here: http://www.denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2366367&posted=1#post2366367 for anyone who's interested!
I just checked out the Winny pics. She is very adorable and a lucky girl (with those cute clothes waiting for her!). My Shiny boy just arrived the other day. He has that silvery-white coloured wig (not my favourite shade). I have a DZBBdoll auburn wig coming (should be here any day now, along with my Sis) - that will look better with his cheek colour (his cheeks are an apricot colour, I would say). I don't know how to post pics on DOA (I really should find out how that is done). I'm also thinking I should get my nerve up and try to put eyelashes on him (I think I might have some lashes (freebies) that will work for him).
My Mish's cheeks (and lips) are quite pink, as the photos probably show, so the warmer coloured wig works quite well on her - though I'd be interested in getting her an auburn one too at some point. Congratulations on your new boy! ^_^
What size clothes are you finding fits them best...from another doll, I mean? My DIM Leisha should be here today or Monday. Thanks, Christine
BJDconfused: All I can tell you is that my Shiny has a tiny little body. I'm wondering what size clothes will fit too (I don't think I have anything here his size). I'll have to take him over to my other dolls and figure out who has a body close to his size.
Gnimaerd: those were really cute red and pink clothes you have on your Winny - can you tell us what kind/size of clothes those were and would you mind sharing shoe size info? Thanks.
The red/white outfit on Gnimaerd,s Whinny is a yo outfit. I would also like to know where you got the other clothes she has on! For shoes, I would think bambicrony would fit. When mine arrives I can let you know for shore about the BC shoes and yo shoes.
Looking at the fit of that Yo outfit on her, I would also guess she's similar to a BC fit. I'd try Barbie (especially Fashion Fever) and Alexander Doll Factory brands if you're looking for premade items. Amelie Tailor items should fit her as well. Looks like she's wearing Ann Estelle sneakers, perhaps? It's tough to see how well they fit her, BC and Rosenlied feet tend to be small for AE and Yo shoes, but fit Doll Factory shoes very well. For BC and Rosenleid, I use shoes from JuJu's Dolly Mall made for Global Bluette, but I like the "sockless" look...they fit pretty much like a glove. The Tennis shoes from the Rini doll will fit as well. You can get Doll Factory clothing at the FAO website. You can get Amelie Tailor outfits at SugarMag. I've found the most luck with Ann Estelle items by looking on eBay. You can get Barbie outfits pretty much anywhere <G>. Hopefully soon I'll have my items up on a website so they can be ordered as well
I am just starting to play with Leisha! This darling is tiny! Bambicrony shoes are WAY too big. The wig she came with is also too much for her!
My Winny has two outfits made for Patsyette. They fit her very well, even the shoes. She can also wear a couple of dresses made by Raikes for their 9" wooden doll. Her measurements aren't much larger than the Cherishdoll body. A pair of shoes I bought on ebay that are supposedly for Yo kids are much too large for her feet tho. Size 6 wigs fit her very well, some adjustable 6-7s fit, but others don't. So, once again it's going to be trial and error.
nancy_schroeder_ca, do you have more pics of her? I'm interested in seeing more user pics. Her foot is cute!
Here's the only other picture I have right now. It was a 5am photoshoot! She is wearing a Bambicrony wig and a Boneka dress. I hope the photo shows up. I'm at work and it doesn't work here because of the filters!
She is normal skin. Dim's normal is very light with a pinkish The picture is too light as I took this one at 5 AM with no sunlight!
The body is well porpotioned I like Shiny more XD But it seems to be sold out....damn >o< I have so many potential-next-doll on my list, I just want to get them all...but my bank balance seems to screem "Help" at me everytime I let my control slip
Denver Dolls has Leisha and Shiny "in-stock" according to the web-site: http://www.denverdoll.com/dimsweet.php
