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.

NotDollLab Belladonna? Opinions?

    1. Well, now I have my Belladonna home, and I love her. She's so neat. There are some technical issues with her, but whatever, I'm a fan.
      The woman I bought her from had just gotten her recently, so I think this is one of the last Belladonnas to be made, during "the last sale". Maybe that's why she has a few bubbles that only got sanded out partway. Her seams are pretty rough too (I have Resinsouls, though, so I'm spoiled). And there's no notch for the S-hook to lock into, so it's really hard to put her head on (I just made a big knot in the elastic). She just seems very eccentric and handmade, in both good and bad ways.
      I do find her body difficult to pose, and I plan to restring and suede her. She can stand in boots, but her knees buckle at the tiniest breath of wind. On the other hand, I love the way her body looks--aesthetically, it's very beautiful. Her joints look smooth under clothes, too, and I love how curvy she is. She looks great in sitting and lying poses, and she's so flexible--I've already decided that her character is going to be a dancer.
      And I love that face! She has tons of personality, and her lips are really something else. NotDoll sculpts just don't look like any other dolls out there.
