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.

Sartoria J Design Group - Part 2

Nov 22, 2020

    1. Same, but they are gorgeous. I already have 2 Zakarys too.
       
    2. I just recently got back into the hobby and I really want Jun! I noticed the ordering period for him ended March. I hope they have another ordering period sometime soon!
       
    3. unfortunately, where before they use to have dolls to be reordered later on, SJ is not longer doing that. Once the original period is over with, they will not do that sculpt again. They may reuse it to make a different type, like perhaps make him an elf but not the same like the original.
       
    4. Ahh oh noo! I guess I'll be searching the second hand market several months from now *_*
       
    5. I just received Vittoria, and while I did not yet take any other photos for public posting, I did take photos of her on the Soom Idealian68 body since I thought hybrid ideas might help someone. The peach cream colour is quite dark compared to most NS's and therefore not an exact match with Iple or the like, but my 2020-2021 Ieren release Soom body matches her near 100%. even the neck fits like a glove. I have refrained from buying Sartoria's girls because I am not a fan of the bodies, but at least now I know one good hybrid option! Of course the downside is that SJ does not sell heads without bodies and Soom does not sell this body without heads, so it requires a bit of hassle. ID68 is not quite 68 cm, more like 65 to 66 cm depending on the head, but it's nevertheless taller than 61 Aphrodite.

      As it happens, I am an eager headless body collector, and this Soom lady here hasn't got a head for herself yet, so now I'm really begging for SartoriaJ to release more mature women!

      See spoiler for Vittoria on Soom ID68 body.

    6. @vauhtikatti Thanks for the ID68 body picture. The head looks great on that body! I may have to try one of my white skin heads on th ID68 body!
       
    7. The match looks perfect in your photo. :) She looks great, can't wait to see what you do with her!
       
    8. Vittoria (or Aether, as her name is) will keep her own 61Aph body. I did get the armor with her and intend to use it, and there's just no way the cuirass would fit on the Soom bust. I planned on sewing some medieval style outfits for her, but we'll see how that goes since she's a lot... eh, bottom heavier than I'm used to. :sweat
       
    9. haha yes that surprised me too! Ooo please post an update if it goes well, I'm a sucker for great historical costuming.
       
    10. Has anyone wired their Sartoriajs girls? Definitely gonna hot glue suede but wondering if wiring as well will help
       
    11. @vauhtikatti - Oh she's the first owners photo of Vittoria I've seen ! And she's wonderful! And a big whopper THANK YOU for doing a full profile. SJ rarely shows full profiles, much to my dismay.:XD: I can't wait to see any Medieval outfits you make for her too!
       
    12. @luluna she does have a lovely nose bump - I don't understand why SJ would not want to show us that! I was on the edge about getting her because there were no blank sculpt photos like usually, but I'm so glad I did order. Let's hope elf Lobelia will be a similar pleasant surprise, I find her photos on the site a bit lacking too as she doesn't have a side profile shot either.

    13. @vauhtikatti - Yes! Why don't they show a full profile. I'm always emailing Iplehouse to add them to their blank sculpts and they do occasionally! :XD: It's the only way to really appreciate the nose!

      I have a mini-Elf Lobelia (I love mine!)...but I need a profile shot of her....I'll do one. Even though the big and small versions may differ a bit it may at least help a little.
       
    14. They've started showing the big elves! Juliet and Zakary... they're gorgeous...now I have to wait and see them all before I pull the trigger on anyone. I've been staring at the MSD Elf Naomi but Elf Juliet just blew me away. Decisions, decisions...
       
    15. I love the look of SD elf Juliet! And Zachary has such an interesting faceup! They are both beautiful
       
    16. For some reason SD Elf Juliet's face up reminds me of the actress Liv Tyler. I like the SD Zachery Elf a lot too, but it looks like his mouth smirk is gone from the Elf version.
       
    17. I can definitely see Arwen in there.
