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 October (Libra) the Third Land: Euclase - The last judgement

Oct 20, 2008

    1. I'm really struggling against this boy. The last thing I need is another doll, but he's calling to me! >_< I think, if he were normal skin, I would have caved already. As it is, I don't have much use for a grey doll. But URGH. So pretty. *grabby hands*
       
    2. Thanks guys... My first plan is to get a bobobie Lilac body and blush it to a more neutral colour using yellow pastels... (opposite of the colour wheel is what you need to get rid of that pinky colour on bodies... Like why concealers are sometimes green or blue)...

      Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut, if I see the colours TOTALLY can't match (as in different tones), I'll mostly track down an airbrush and paint his head a more normal color...

      BUT OMG, how can anyone NOT like the wing head? (I just hope you can open the eyes without a bunch of junk in the way like elastic holding the ears on D:)
       
    3. 14mm is correct St. James.
       
    4. If anyone is teetering on the brink because of the grey skin tone, let me give a little push. I got my dark elf Onyx yesterday and the resin color is beautiful and oddly believeable.

      It's got just the tiniest hint of brown (or possibly lavender in some lights) so it doesn't look dead-ish to me (Of course if dead was what you wanted this would be bad news). The blushing they did on Onyx is browny-orangey rather than pink and it looks fine with the skin tone. I'm just assuming that Euclase would be much the same color, but it seems reasonable and it looks better to me than some of the tans do.

      I think this color could easily be pushed toward metallic-looking too, anyone else have fond memories of Tanith Lee's The Silver Metal Lover? I may just have to do that.

    5. Oooh The Silver Metal Lover. Now THAT's a good idea! Nice to know that the resin color will be beautiful, but I had imagined it would be.

      Now I feel like I want a Silver doll now!
       
    6. Aww, Silver! :aheartbea
      I was thinking Narasen from Tales from the Flat Earth for my Shadow Onyx, actually. :)
       
    7. Whoot! Just ordered my boy and made my first payment...I'll prolly have to go the whole 5 months.

      I think there are a lot of blushing options for the feet...I'm thinking that I'm going to go for black feathers...my boy is going to be more of a raven than a hawk.
       
    8. I'm having such a hard time deciding if I should order him or not. I want him so bad but I know soon as I pay for him someone is going to put their Delphine up for sale and I'll just die.lol
       
    9. I'm really dying to get this boy. I'd love to get twins of this boy and have my own Osiris and Seth brothers. It's really tempting to do that and put it on layaway. Boy is it tempting. Oh so tempting.
       
    10. Oh, "Silver Metal Lover" - one of my fave stories. love Tanith Lee.
      that would be a very interesting character!



       
    11. Ooooh! Like a Naga??? I'd love to see that!!!
       
    12. Awesome! I remember in some old thread mentioning how in a dolly dream world I'd make dolls of all of my favorite Tanith Lee characters. :aheartbea

      Lazuli, I decided to get a face-up on my open eyed head due to uncertainty about painting a gray head and I don't want to have to wait for decent weather in the wintertime to experiment. I also figure that after waiting several months to get him I want to be able to enjoy playing with him right away! I can always change it later when I have a better feel for how he looks in person.
       
    13. Yeh!!!! Elfquest squee in the Topaz thread and now Tanith Lee squee in the Euclase thread...does it get any better than this, people?

      Seriously thinking about at least cosplaying him as Azhrarn now!
       
    14. For those of you still iffy on the sleeping head, I lightened some pics of it. (I also would've done pics of the legs, but my computer ran out of memory trying to chop the big ass image into tiny bits so all you get is sleeping head pics... unless someone sends some other parts of the ad to me [​IMG] Also, I lighten a pic of what I thought was the sleeping head until I saw it had eyes D: )

      First off, the wig isn't completely black... It's a black wig with blue streaks... the dark pics hide this D:

      Looking at the close up, I THINK his ears are being held on with the peg method B&G use so you can safely remove them for travel and such... Also, are his eyes open a tiny smidge at the bottom or is his eyelashes guled on top? D:

      [​IMG]

      But yeah, Soom overly edited the pics ._. There's alot of amazing detail gone D:
       
    15. My eyesight must be going, because I can't see the blue streaks. D: (Which would be cool, given how I need a black wig with bluish streaks so dark that it blends into the black...)
       
    16. it's cool to see the lightened pix. I wish Soom would include some nice bright photos of every doll. not that it would make a difference....*sigh* ....to my bank account....:|
       
    17. thanx for posting lightened pics, it's helpful. and yeah, i don't see blue streaks either, maybe grey?
      i also think the eyes look ever so slightly opened....that would be very cool, but i think it's just the make up creating that illusion.
       
    18. They look open to me. Soom calls it "meditation head" and not "sleeping head", after all...
       
    19. o.k. that's even better, i like a bit of the eye showing! i am getting that head.
       
    20. I do think the eyes are little open. I wonder if we could get confirmation from Soom about it?
