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.

Soom Monthly Doll May: Bazael - Rauco of Pain

May 13, 2011

    1. Omg! That face! :D He sooo pretty, without face-up XD
      I looove his ears, his nose, his eyes, his mouth : D
      Oh man! XD Sadly I have NO need for him :) But I will look forward to see what others do with him ^___^

      Oh btw, I think his feet is really nice... Toughed about them, and I think they look really natural, if a human where to "mutate" into something like him, wouldn't the feet be like that too? Our toes remaining where they are, and the heel extending into a "claw" thing?
      I can see much potential : D
      Maybe he will be for me, in the future.... ?
       
    2. His face really reminds me of Lazule! That flat nose, the upper lip, his eyes if they were more cat like. Im impressed by him. The price tag is wowzah!
       
    3. Love-love his ears! His nose is pointier than I thought, though not like Euclase's beak. I also thought his face-up gave the appearance of fuller lips, but apparently he has them anyway. XD

      Thanks Ereskigal, this is a huge help!

      EDIT: Oooh, Seo Jin Young sculpted Amphibel! Love it even more now.
       
    4. i like his face better without faceup :) there were something about his mouth i didn't like before on sooms pics. now i really think he will look wonderful with the right faceup. i will look forward to owner pictures.
      i won't bring him home, since i realized with my sphaler that a supergem is too big for me.

      but if they make something like him in msd there is a big danger for i will be soomed :)
       
    5. I'm waiting for an evil looking from SOOM for long !!
      I like his wing a lot !!
      But his wig and leg look terribly = ="
      I'm wondering if he has another face up, he might be look better (or not) ? = ="

      Ps: Ereskigal, Thank you for picture !!! :)
       
    6. Can't guarantee you'll find the same as I, but if I screw up a part of the faceup [I'm partial to messing up lips and, somehow, nosetips ¬¬] I can scrub away the MSC with just a magic eraser, no W&N or acetone or what have you. The ring doesn't seem to appear when it's just a magic eraser and water. But it does leave a problem of the part rubbed away being a very slightly different colour to the rest, even when resealed, since it has less or no MSC layers.

      'Course, Soom airbrush, so they may not use enough layers for it to show. And there's the whole potential problem Surreality mentioned with building up additional MSC coats on the rest of the face. :/
       
    7. Just want to say a thanks to Ereskigal too for the blank pictures (not sure Soom don't provide these anyway upfront) his head is lovely :) still not buying though lol

      Jung Hye Eun may be the most prolific but have noticed that I consistantly like his sculpts :) wonder if he is on his hols this month ???
       
    8. I love seeing him blank, definitelly the face up on the site dont make him justice at all...




      Welcome guys, I updated the list with others:

      Bazael, Amphibel - Seo Jin Young

      Auber - Park Jung Eun

      Shoshon, Ender, Nephelin, Epidos, Monzo, Coquina, Breccia, Chalco, Galena, Sphaler, Cass, Chrom, Cuprit, Amber, Vesuvia, Euclase, Topaz, Onyx, Beryl, Sard, Deneb, Saiph, - Jung Hye Eun

      Io, Lazule - Marimo

      Bix - MAGOSOYANG

      Vega - Lee Hye Young

      Spinel - Dimu



      For me I like some of Jung Hye Eun sculpts and some not (from the girls I only like Amber and Saiph, the rest I like to see good pix but dont want to own...)
       
    9. Wooo he's so beautiful without that dark face -up, I knew it :)

      Offtopic: And about sculptors, I always wondering who made Sabik... maybe Marimo, who did Io and Lazule? I guess I will never know XD
       
    10. Also OT: Soom used to have a whole biography of the man who made the mechas, can't find it anywhere on the new site...sad really, it was quite interesting. I think he did the early Gem dolls, to?
       
    11. oh my....the doll is just great ,wow realy realy great
       
    12. I'm curious which sculptor did Olivine, Lupin, and Corvi, personally. They have the most remarkable -- and underrated, in my opinion -- faces. Lupin just looks uncannily real. There is so much detail and subtlety in his sculpt that it never fails to amaze me. My Corvi has been around for ages now, and I cannot bring myself to try to do a faceup for him, or send him out -- he's just that gorgeous completely blank. It blows my mind, really.
       
    13. I jus stumbled across this guy!! freaking awesome!! man how i wish the doll fund wasn't low low low right now!! That face it's alls about that face! And the claw hands and wings and.... XD;;
       
    14. these pics are going up in the gem gallery on Monday but i asked soom for them so here you go:
      for those of you that want better pics of his claws/legs:

    15. Somehow, that looks really creepy. 8'D
       
    16. I think I'm ok with the feet now - as Marha said, they do make sense...not pretty, but then a demon type of guy I'm sure wouldn't have pretty feets!:)
       
    17. Two at the back?! Now my "Oh it's making sense!" thing isn't making sense! D:
      But I guess that our huge heel bone thing could split up in two to keep the balance... Why not?
      Hmm... Freaky x'D

      I think the feet is funny :P Still like them x'D But now they are just more... yeah funny.
       
    18. Man those feet are creepy. O_o But I guess that's perfect for a demon. XD I can't but help think though that they look like 7-fingered hands doing pushups.
       
    19. Well, I've tried to visualise this guy with hooves... which didn't work too well. Euclase style claws would seem like too much going on... so distorted feet I think will work out quite nice in the end...:sweat
       
    20. lol, those feet have really grown on me now, thanks for the pictures pendrithgirl :) though still giving Bazael a miss, I think the future box opening are going to be very interesting :D

      note sure why Soom dont put up blank pictures of the head scuplts and close ups of the fantasy parts, as I am sure it would increase sales as people are more comfortable with making a purchase
