Thank you! I´ve adored Popovy dolls for many years and am glad that I finally dived into it this year. Now I´m waiting for my Peewit, which I ordered from the Sisters in late August. Do you do the faceups on your own or do you send them to someone?
Congratulations Eresmia, your Little Owl is lovely! Glad to hear that she made it home safe and sound. Is it ok to ask, which face-up artist you used?
it's looking like I might need to do my own, as I'm not currently prepared to send the blank girls overseas, and in country seems like quite a few artists unfortunately do not work on these smaller heads. Still looking around a bit too. waiting on some clothes from a pre-order... you know the drill for the waiting game congrats on your Peewit too!
Thank you very much! I sent my doll to Zara Kry. She is usually painting Minifees but definitely can handle Popovy size as well.
Where do you live? I love watching faceup / makeover videos but wouldn´t dare doing a faceup yet. People who do are doing magic, in my opinion.
Thank you! I´ll do some more in the future with different colours and crystals. I tried making a yarn wig, but didn´t finish the monstrosity. Not my cup of tea yet.
@Erasmia - I'm in the US, and I'm sure there's more artists to explore, though it's definitely gotten harder to browse for them, since searching Instagram got so useless. I agree with Dollibird about the rhinestone wig having that flapper vibe. it's so nicely fit to her, and picks up that beautiful gold accent around her eyes. here's some doll tax of my Landy. I'm still getting her look together, I am looking for a white, grey or maybe that smoky pink colour for her wig, she probably won't keep this dark one.
Thank you! And your Landy is gorgeous! A white or silver wig would be perfect for her and she would make a great ice queen for a winter shooting. The most popular faceup artist from the US, for what I´ve read, is Cocokiddy. She does a good job with Popovy dolls. I also like preciouslilyaesthetics work.
thank you about Landy. she is the grey skin, I think it will show a bit more with the lighter wig too. I had thought Cocokiddyy was based in China? I would love to have a slot with Mimi, but I'm just not feeling great about sending the owls out so far right now. thanks for the info for the second artist too. they are so beautiful even blank, I might just try a very gentle layer, and let their natural beauty carry it.
I am so happy to see people's Popovy dolls around! They look stunning. I was lucky enough to be able to buy the only Popovy Sisters BJD in my country this year. She makes me so happy! These dolls pose amazingly, it cannot be compared to any other dolls that I have ever handled. I don't think I will ever buy another Popovy doll since my one and only is enough for me, but I would definitely like to get her more clothes in the future. She barely has any now...
When I woke up today I grabbed my doll even before going to the bathroom. I changed her clothes and did another photoshoot with her. Photography/Videoediting is also one of my passions. I´m planning to place her on my dads´ huge dragon figurine for a video sequence where she is "flying" the fire spitting dragon over a landscape at moonlit night. I already have the music. This is going to be a huge and time consuming process with greenscreen/AI and so on...Anyway. Here´s some more pictures:
Waiting for my Little owl limited edition Flora lilac! It's going to take some time , because I'm sending her off for a total custom makeover. Super exited!
