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.

    1. I have 3 palm sized tattoos and 1 that goes from my shoulder to my thigh, none of my dolls have tattoos yet but I would love to get one of them tattooed, just the one tho.
       
    2. I want to get a tatoo, but I don't think that reflects something on my dolls. They don't have tattoos yet simply because I don't think it would match any of my actual characters, but if I ever think a character of mine need a tattoo, no taboo in that.
       
    3. my dolls will have them but not me hehe im sure of that.
       
    4. At least one of my dolls, based on a character in a story of mine, needs to have a tattoo. I'll be ordering him next week (Iplehouse Eric! Oh my.) so I've been looking all over the place for tutorials. I love the option of just using a temporary tattoo and sealing it, but I'm afraid it'd bleed into the resin. TT^TT So I don't know. What I DO know is, he'll have one... eventually?

      (As for me, I have some ideas for a couple I'd like to do, but I want to lose some weight first. ._.)

      It'd be interesting if both a doll of mine and myself shared a similar tattoo design. I'm already a little obsessed with getting my dolls doll-sized things that I own... like jewelry, clothing, items, etc. As most of my dolls are tied to stories that mean a lot to me, a tattoo representing a story they're from would be awesome!
       
    5. I love my tattoos but have never thought to add them to my boys lol.
       
    6. i admire them on other poeple, and other people's dolls, i, however will never put anything on my skin that's permanent. i don't know about the dolls though, it really depends on the character.
       
    7. I'm not allowed to get any tattoo's myself, but I've always been interested in them. So I just get the tattoo's that I would have gotten for myself put on whichever doll's character is suitable for it. :lol:
       
    8. I have one tattoo and a doll that has one (she's being re-shelled, but I'm keeping her old body to mod into another character). Like my tattoo, I like the tattoos on my dolls to be meaningful and somehow connect with the doll's character- but if they're not the kind of character that would have a tattoo to start with, then I just leave it be at the faceup. :)
       
    9. A couple of my dolls have tattoos, but I would never tattoo myself... Mostly because I'm terrified of needles, and I don't really think a tattoo would look good when I'm old and wrinkly, lol.
       
    10. I will probably never get a real tattoo myself (seriously needle-phobic) and none of my current dolls do, but one of my planned dolls definitely does and a few I could see having them. I love tattoos and body art, and I plan to lave all of it on my doll(s) because I can't do it myself.
       
    11. 2 sds of mine have tattoos, one has a matching one with me with is the Dark Mark :3

    12. I love tattoos and piercings, but I suffer from TSS (toxic shock syndrome) and so I can only portray my love for these things through my doll.
       
    13. I have tattoos and plan on giving my doll some as well, I love piercings and tattoos :aheartbea
       
    14. I have a tattoo and so does my doll.
       
    15. I don't have tattoos, and I'm uninterested in getting tattoos for my dolls.

      However, I do have one exception. If I am ever able to get a Soom Vesuvia, the character I have in mind for one would require tattoos. But that's the only character of mine that would need or want them.
       
    16. No tattoos, I am completely ink free despite the fact that I would love to get a small dragon on my shoulder, I've been expressly told that I wouldn't be allowed in the house if I got on. Now... If I got a doll and they were the type who would have tattoos, then definitely I love drawing tattoos on characters, so I don't see why not with Bjds.
       
    17. There's a very specific tattoo that I want for myself but a combination of being broke and chicken have kept me from it so far, aside from having super sensitive skin. I'm considering a "tattoo" for a doll I want to do, on the character it's really a scar but I'm told that temporary tattoos for humans work like decals on resin, which would help me because I'm a terrible painter.
       
    18. I have a few tattoos, and a couple of the characters I have in mind for my future doll purchases do as well, so I'll be adding those eventually as long as I can steady my hand enough.
      The only doll I have at present doesn't have any, because she's far too young.
       
    19. I have 4 tattoos myself and although currently my dolls do not. As soon as my older brother & I are in the same place at the same time & he isn't busy, one will finally get hers! He, ironically enough, did all of my tattoos as well as 95% of his own & all of his dolly friends have beautiful tats. That's one of our jokes in the family actually: "giant, retired Army Ranger, 6'4", tattooed, pierced, biker... and his dolly..." makes me seem less weird LOL!
       
    20. It depends of the character, but a lot of my dolls will have tattoo. My Kirill does already :)
