I see. Thank you for the explanation! Since I dont have any long wig I just grabbed some cheap secondhand ones in a bundle for now. I hope at least one of them fits
Right?? I cannot stop looking at her @snowgray your DSDs are all very cute too! I probably want to have a Mai one day..
@JaxxCapta thank you! I love this wig way more than her default one. The back is actually twintail with loose ringlets.
You know, I know the most recent BTSSB outfits weren't made for DearSD but I was wondering if anyone has tried putting them on a DSD for science? I'm sure most of it is too large (definitely the undershirts) but I wonder...
Here you go, @lunar-dream304. Of course the sleeves are long; Vanessa didn't fasten the cuff snaps, lol. And the waist snap on the dress took some effort. Yu Morisawa: I told you it was going to be too big for you. Stick to the DearSD versions! Vanessa: But -- but -- but... **flaps sleeves while fighting back tears** Yu Morisawa: if it's any consolation, the headband fits, sweetie!
We got snow overnight! I got a touch too excited about bringing Violet out for a photoshoot; I didn't charge my camera's battery enough and her wig did not want to behave. It came off with a touch, I swear. Didn't help that my fingers were getting numb. So I got one decent shot of Violet hanging out in a snowy tree: (Link) And then (after more fighting the wig and the camera cough cough) she realized that snow means cold and decided it would be best to head back inside and join Megu under a pile of blankets and pillows. (Link) How're folks's dolls getting ready for the season? Other than freezing their wigs off, of course
Question for those with official Volks stands for their DSDs: do you prefer the waist grip or the saddle type? I'm currently setting up a shelf for my girls and I'd like to use the official Volks stands since they seem to be the least visually obtrusive, but I can't figure out which type would be the most stable for display. I was thinking the waist grip would be the most stable and have the most versatility for posing, but I'm not 100% sure! Dolly tax: Mai, impatiently waiting on the miniature doll pram I ordered her for christmas lol
I bought waist stand & i'm disapointed. Had to reorder saddle one. It was very hard to use with full fluffy dresses. Hard to push doll through metal holders & fix it in place. Even sideways doll wont fit so you have to expand holder. And then squeeze it back otherwise no support. Its soo much easier to sit doll down & just adjust height on saddle one.
Thank you so much for your experience! I think I will go with the saddle stand based on your testimony, very thankful because I was planning to get the waist grip before! If anything, perhaps I will get both and try them out before committing lol Mai's pram arrived this afternoon! It's from American Girl Samantha's collection. There are a couple other things of hers that I want, but this was my most wanted. So glad the proportions match Dear SD as perfectly as they do. The little doll is a handmade bisque doll I bought a few years ago, and she luckily also fits in the pram perfectly ❤️
@JaxxCapta, Violet is lovely! Her lips are very cute. @lunar-dream304, your girls look so cute and classically doll-like! RE: hand order forms: I haven't welcomed a DearSD from the anniversary release, but afaik, the only releases of the extra DearSD hands were announced by Volks and could be ordered by anyone online. They aren't always available.
It's so cute how the bonnet matches the fabric and ribbon on her dress, and her wig's styled beautifully!
New addition to my little DSD Family, Hana ❤️ I actually bought her for christmas but she's been sitting at the Buyee warehouse since late December, until I could stomach the tariffs and shipping lol. So happy she is finally home and that her new outfit looks good on her! This bonnet was such a lucky find, it felt like destiny with how closely it matches the bodice detail on her dress (I have no idea who made either the dress or bonnet, sadly)
