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 tattoos and plan to get many more, and I would like to put tattoos on some of my dolls, but some of them just don't seem to suit tattoos that much. Just by personality or otherwise. So I guess it's all a matter of how your doll is! ~
       
    2. I have a set of tattoos, and I don't see the problem with tattooing dolls, nor would I feel restrained to have them on my dolls. It depends on the doll however, the character. But I suppose so does the tattoo...!
       
    3. I have a tattoo and my dolls don't. I think they look great on people and dolls alike (when done properly) but I'd be too scared of clothes constantly rubbing off the paint on my dolls as their outfits change quite a bit.
       
    4. I don't have a tatoo personally (needles and I do not mix...) but I see nothing wrong with them on either people or dolls - and I suppose the advantage with dolls, is if you don't like it afterwards, you don't need laser treatment to remove it!
       
    5. My very first doll and I have matching tattoos (same location/size) - painting her tattoo was the first thing I did to her, long before I got around to painting her faceup. I can't even remember the reason I decided to do it, I guess I wanted my "signature" on her or something.
       
    6. I have tattoos but i dont want to give any to my dolls..
      i dont want to have to deal with chipping and scratching
       
    7. I have tattoos and when I get my grail doll, she will have a few.
       
    8. Both. Oh-so definitely both.
       
    9. I have no tattoos on myself, but plan to get some in the future. I love tattoos on my dolls, simply because I love art. There's so many ways to be creative on a doll's body and faceup :)
       
    10. I have tattoos and peircings on me, but my dolls are like to dress victorian, classy and lolita. With a few exceptions I guess. Delsin, Cecil and Lo can dress in whatever they please because they're babies. My MSD are all in nice, expensive clothes and a tattoo would just cover them up. If I want t a pretty tattoo I put it on MY body so I can have it. I would get jealous if my doll had a tattoo that I wanted. And I'm cruel when it comes to my tattoo preference. They have ear piercings, several, but no nose or lip piercings. I like them on other dolls a hell of a lot, but none of mine really are into that stuff.
       
    11. Dont ever plan to have tattoos on myself , but it would be possible to get one for my BJD . Im currently thinking of a nice dragon tattoo .
       
    12. A couple of weeks ago I would have said neither. But the girl I just ordered is going to be punk so she'll probably end up with a tattoo of some kind.
       
    13. I don't have a tattoo because of my obsession with symmetry, and understanding that tattooing something on both sides of your body probably isn't going to be good looking. I like the look of clear skin too. But I enjoy looking at amazing body art, on both humans and dolls (whose customisers are simply brilliantly talented). My characters are generally un-tattooed, but one has henna like floral patterns on her hands and feet. I'm not sure how that's going to turn out on an actual doll due to the scale, but I am open to the possibility of having that doll tattooed.
       
    14. I never thought about that before!
      I've seen dolls with tattoos before, but never considered having mine tattooed. It's a very interesting idea :)

      Now it's not the right time for me to get tattoos :p someday in the future, I'm planning on getting two; but they certainly wouldn't be similar to anything my dolls would have tattooed on them (if they ever were to get tattooed) :sweat I'd probably find it a bit disturbing.
       
    15. I have one tattoo and my Isaac has one on one of his hands (he came with two left hands. One with a tattoo andmone without). When I get a bigger place and learn how to do face ups and body blushing then I will give him the same tattoo on the other hand. :kitty2
       
    16. I plan on some of my dolls having tattoos but don't have any real intentions of ever getting one myself. I think tattoos are really cool and can have some really cool symbolism behind them.
       
    17. I don't have any, just because I couldn't live with the permanence (I do think some tattoos are incredibly neat though!), but I'm not against my dolls having them. In the future I hope to get one for my Priscilla, just because I think it will fit her character the most.
       
    18. I have many tattoos, and I've bought some blank dolls just so I can draw all over them. :D Nothing's permanent with dolls.
       
    19. I don't have any tattoos,and right now my dolls don't have any either. I want to put one on Dane,but I don't know how to go about it and get the design I want.
       
    20. Me and my dolls! I have a few, and my doll has a few too ;) I plan on many many more- for both of us!
