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.

SartoriaJ Mini Part II

Aug 19, 2023

    1. Thank you! I'm so excited to see her. I love mermaids.

      I love her, too! She has a very pretty face and I love the smile in her faceup.

    2. Ahhh please tell me someone is gonna get the mermaid! She’s so pretty! :) the tail definitely has limited posability, but unless you joint it like Meeksdoll for example, I think that’s gonna happen. I think she’s so pretty!
       
    3. Jude and his family on vacation in Newfoundland....

    4. I love this setting. Lovely poses and the bikes and the bench all add to the realism. Very cute!
       
    5. Thanks. I'm always looking for spots that will work for forced perspective photos with my dolls.

    6. Gosh I am really loving the painting on the mermaid tail but also on Marina, like there is subtle scales painted on her torso and arms. She looks slightly malicious and I love it. Great mermaid design. Boo the athletic body won't be 1/4 thou.

    7. I wonder why the athletic body won't be offered in 1/4 but the mermaid is. If anything I'd have thought it would be the other way round.

    9. Really love Bella, the virgo! She looks like a Greek goddess. Or like an actress who could play effortlessly in some Jane Austen movie. Temptation incoming!

    10. I'm loving Bella as well! She has the most realistic facial proportions I've seen thus far. There's doll beauty (like larger eyes and lips on a small, pointed-jawline face) and then there's something comparable to a real person's beauty—Bella hits the latter imo

      Also, I'd like to ask, is it hard to shop for clothes for SJ's 1/4 scale? I know Iplehouse FID size is a close fit. Any alternative doll sizes that could work? I think about owning a mini being that it seems easier to handle and play with, especially if I want to bring a doll to travel.
       
    11. @sageyufi For me clothes for these boys and girls are a nightmare. Souldoll Vito clothes fit the Mintonette body fairly well. I had a Chinese shop on etsy where I bought most of my 1/4 dolls clothes, since they did custom sizes (PABADoll), but they don´t exist anymore. I would be greatful for some suggestions too!

    12. I did a quick search, but would pabadoll dot com be the same store you were referring to? I'm already familiar with a lot of the catalogue direct from Taobao but certainly I'll bookmark the page because trying to communicate custom sizing on the native Chinese app may be a hurdle too big for me :sweat

      smh, the struggle of having no sewing skills. I'll sooner make a decent faceup and wig before I open that can of worms

    13. @sageyufi Yes, that is the store :dance Last time I looked they had almost no items, but that was months ago, or longer. Now it looks much better! Thanks for making me look again :thumbup
      I was always so happy with their custom made clothes, they always fit real well! Another good shop on etsy is GuluUP. They do not have that many clothes that are customizable, but they have cool designs and are super helpful if you ask for a custom size.

      My Marie is here!!! And she's absolutely gorgeous - I am so delighted!!! Her face-up is so pretty and pink and sparkly, it's the loveliest thing!!! I don't have any eyes to suit her unfortunately - the search continues for them - but I'm so glad she's here at last!!!

    17. Thank you!!! And yes, that dress ended up a bit too low cut, working on a better fitting one!
       
    18. My Isabelle is finally here! I got her on the daphne body with the dew bust. And the pale rose skin. She is my new favourite.

      The daphne body is by far the best poser imo. Does anyone else think this or have I got lucky?

      Quick picture with terrible lighting.

    19. @Loganberry - Congratulations on your beautiful Isabelle! I agree that the Daphne body is the best poser...and has the better hands too.
       
    20. Thanks @luluna

      Are high heel feet included with the daphne body? Ive had a look on SartoriaJ and its says they are but high heel feet weren't included in the box. Has this happened to anyone else?
