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.

    2. @Wittyilynamed Thank you! Fingers crossed SJ will release some beautifully moody fits this coming Halloween :eusa_pray

      I like to imagine Amara in a plague doctor's outfit—knee-length skirt and SJ's spiked heel lace up boots. And Cori in a cheeky not-historically-accurate bloody nurse outfit similar to the one I put her Sims model in (I still have her spoopy teeth doll eyes!) :lol:

    3. @sageyufi Your girls look both amazing! But Natalie is my favorite, I absolutely love black lipstick :D I really like her hair too!

    4. @Ashemanu Thank you! It is indeed a very nice wig though it runs slightly large. My canon for her changed a while back so I'm waiting on a custom updo wig with lush curls to better honour her British and Sicilian mixed heritage.

      Sharing another picture because I still haven't seen any owner photos of Natalie. Her sculpt has a much fuller bottom lip than her promo pictures led me to believe (I love it). Most incredible is how her expression can switch from gentle and sweet to regal and commanding depending on the angle her pictures are taken (I love her so much)!

    6. I feel like there wasn't much love for the Marina body in the thread but I just finished paying off my layaway on her and I am so excited! I have wanted a female mermaid SD for so long, I put my order in as soon as I saw their promo for her.

      Anyone else who got her have plans/inspo boards? I went through a few iterations (I really wanted a spooky siren initially) but ended up defaulting to pink as always.

      Also making my own life difficult by making it a hybrid - I have no idea what will match with 'rosewater' but I am just going to wing it!

    8. So many gorgeous dolls! I especially love your Leo @luluna

      I finished my Lt. Tom Pullings' uniforms some months ago but finally made myself
      take some actual photos today. I'm going to make a Gallery posting in a bit with
      more photos of the entire group.
      My Lt. Pullings is the Demian sculpt in sonoran beige resin, painted by SartoriaJ
      here with his wife, Rowana (HID Rebecca in peach resin)

    10. I love these uniforms! Did you make them yourself?
       
    11. @Robyn_in_WA They both look so dreamy! Congrats on finishing this project!

    12. I have some catching up to do in this thread... :sweat

      My Leo just returned from faceup yesterday. I was indecisive on his wig before, but I think it might be his permanent one:

      Pic is a clicky link if broken!

      @luluna and @jp_bestie : your Leos are gorgeous! I love seeing how others style the same sculpt, and how different they can look. :)

      I see many scored at the clothing sale -- congrats on expanding your dolly wardrobes! lol

      @sageyufi : your ladies are stunning! I know you stated that those aren't their proper wigs, but they're so lovely! Love a good up-do.

      @Faerie_Soup: love the vision you have for your mermaid! Maybe you can get the intended head in the lightest skin tone available and it can be color matched with a faceup?

      @Robyn_in_WA : Those uniforms are amazing! Love the attention to the little details!

    13. @Quirked Your Leo is so stylish! I love that his faceup gives him a kind of softness to his expression, and the blue-silver hair matches his eyes quite well. Love his top as well, where did you get it?

    14. Thank you! I keep looking at him all googly eyed. :whee: His top is the 'Twilight Knit' from SartoriaJ (I ordered it with him last November), and it looks like it is no longer on the site unfortunately. But maybe it will come back, I'm pretty sure I've seen some things disappear from the site and then reappear at a later time.

    15. I think a lot of us feel that way about our dolls in general haha I stare at my girls and think, "ooh, pretty ladies!".
      Kinda wish SJ would simply archive all of their creations. It's actually interesting to stumble upon their older stuff and see how much they've improved and so I can cry about certain missed offerings.

    16. Thanks @sageyufi - Sartoria does some gorgeous guys, don’t they?!
      Thanks @Bobble - yes, I did make all the outfits including patterns for them.
      Thanks so much @Wittyilynamed - altho in getting the group ready for their
      “Dress” uniform display, I realized that I’m short one fancy gown for the gals.
      so am working on that one now. always something!
      Thanks @Quirked - I love finding all the bits to use for the outfits!
