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.

~sweet~ New Photos Resin colors -LIMHO MANO Open Ordering Through Oct 1, 07

Jun 23, 2007

    1. Is there going to be an option at any time in the future in regards to the resin for the 44cm Limho?

      :daisy
       
    2. Will we be able to have a picture comparison of the three resins soon? Or are they up and I am missing them somewhere?
       
    3. Zag-- yes, you can order them in beauty white or normal beige urethane.

      Bird of Hermes- yes, that is a good idea. I will try to get a shot of the different resins.

      As far as resin types-- the pinky white french is similar to Supia's pinky white color. The normal beige and beauty white urethanes are matte in texture when they are unsanded. If you prefer a shiny texture, you can sand them lightly, and they become shiny. The artist prefers to ship them unsanded, and that way you have a more lifelike (matte skin) appearance for them.

      I'll try to post photos of all the resin colors tomorrow, when we get a little sun here.

    4. So I tried searching the thread and didn't see an answer so....

      Can we order Mono? I :aheartbea him :)

      Thanks!
       
    5. oh I'm so in love with his body :fangirl: ...but...unfortunately..I don't like his lips :doh ... do you know if will release other heads in the future?
       
    6. Bump for awesome resin comparison shots from Hailey...

      Yes, you can order Mono.. although we have a strict limit of dolls we can order in this ordering period so we hope those who are waiting for Mano will get in too : -)

      And regarding Mano's face, well.. he's become a tourist attraction here, and you have to see him to love him. I don't think the artist will make a new face for him.

    7. Thank you very much for the comparisons, that helps me get a much better sense. Out of a curiosity- does the French resin handle sanding well? I'm turning into quite a mod-a-holic so I'd like to get all the information I can. Also I know French resins tend to have yellowing issues- do you know anything about how this one handles the longer term?
       
    8. The French resin is easy to sand and it is nontoxic (though you should still protect from inhaling dust).

      Since you are living in a hot and sunny spot, I'd coat your boy with several layers of sealant such as Mr. Super Clear UV Cut. All resin tends to yellow, but especially with heat and light exposure. If you are worried about this due to your location, then I'd suggest getting the Limho in normal beige resin. This has a yellow undertone, and will cover any color change nicely. (see resin color comparisons)

    9. Do we know how long this Mano ordering period is going to last?
       
    10. It has finished, and we are sending in the funds. If you need to get into this ordering period, you could email me asap.. but you would have to do it immediately.

      Thanks!
