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.

    1. I agree with nancy_schroeder_ca! I have purchased multiple times with them and their customer service and products are exceptional.

      I really like Erica's face. I hope to be able to get her in the near future. ^^

    2. I am very tempted by Erica also!

    3. I'd get several dolls from them if I had the space and money to spare ... *sigh* I like how their sculpts are more on the - unusual and realistic side.

    4. Yep, me too, and I have zero money right now. I'm longing to see owner pics of Erica's face. I love the Raurencio body-modelling too.

    5. This is just a great info :D thanks for sharing!
      I'm lusting after a female body from raurencio,even if the resin tones are not my cup of tea :sweat
      Anyway http://fabricfriendsdolls.com/ is a stunning shop to work with,my twin sister $avage knows them,and offers also long layaway which is great if you consider that RS doesn't offer,at least i think so.

    6. Anyone know how close a match the normal RS skin tone is with Shinydoll's normal resin. I'm thinking an Erica head with a Thaasa body could be perfect for me.

    8. Just for reference, the new normal skin is not the same as the normal skin they used in the past. It is darker and more yellow than the guys I have. I think the new girls my have been poured by Crobi.

    10. Nancy, thank you so much for the pictures! Very interesting. It looks like the new body has a bigger butt and a thicker waist? I saw that both girls are on stands. How well can they stand on their own?

      Thanks again for the pictures!
       
      #270 Tatu, Apr 29, 2012
    11. They both stand well. The old body stands a bit more easily. I think the resin is not as smooth and the ankles hold position a bit better. The floor of my light box is a little flexible, so I use stands with more than one doll.

      The measurements in cm:

      Old body: Bust 26 Waist 18.7 Hips 27.9

      New body: Bust 26 Waist 19.3 Hips 28.3 (bust is lower and fills out the dress better)

      I added more pictures to the comparison thread.

    12. Thanks for the comparison pics nancy!
       
      #272 PacificBlue, Apr 29, 2012
    13. Thanks Nancy!
      I guess a bit of hot glue sueding would help the new bodies stand firm.

    14. hello!

      Does anyone know if Raurencio Studio is still around?? I fell totally in love with their Stella, and can't seem to find their website anymore.

      help?

    16. I keep meaning to PM racius and ask what happened. I had got the impression that he would keep raurencio studio going.

      Perhaps RSDOLL has been so successful that he hasn't been able to run both lines at once.
       
      #276 glass_mountain, Sep 16, 2012
    17. oh no! there are so many of the older sculpts i wanted. D=

      i guess i'll have to go second-hand. i don't want to be all picky, these new ones are very nice, but i just loved the old raurencio sculpts!
       
      #277 orphansparrow, Sep 16, 2012
    18. Maybe he'll add the old dolls to the new site.
       
      #278 nancy_schroeder_ca, Sep 16, 2012
    19. I hope so - there were at least two of the girls that I loved. I know he has talked of adding the boy heads to the new-style bodies.
       
      #279 glass_mountain, Sep 16, 2012
    20. I hope the Raurencio Studio ladies will be appearing soon on the new RSdoll site too; I very much admired Stella, Ray, and Erica, as well as several of the sweet little sculpts in their Kid line.
