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. @St. James I don't know if they've said yet, but given how popular the franchise is, I'd be surprised if they didn't.

    2. Wait, where are these HP dolls? I can't afford them so I'm not even gonna try, but I'm just curious to see them.

    6. I finally had some time off today, and besides being lazy I thought it would be nice to take a couple of dolls out for pics.

      So here's my F-17 Zidane! Please excuse his bed hair, he's been sleeping for far too long in his box.
      Yeah, that's my excuse for not dressing and doing his hair properly. :lol:

    7. He’s gorgeous @himitsu !! F-17 is one of my favourite sculpts, and yours is stunning. I’d say his messy hair adds to his handsomeness. :whee: I’d love to see more photos of Zidane once he’s been freed from his box!

      I’ll add my F-17, though his ears have been modded. I can’t get enough of this boy.

    8. Omg, Link! That's amazing! You did an awesome job! :D

      Thanks! I'll try to work more on my dolls from now on, lol. I promise he'll lookmore Zidaneish sometime in the future! :lol:

    9. I finally decided to fix the proportional stuff that was bothering me about my Ryoma. I love-love-love his face sculpt and the way that his expression changes from angle to angle, but the juxtaposition of manly face and baby oversized cranium were starting to jar me. Also, I couldn't find a happy medium for the body. SD17 body was too muscular for me aesthetically and too heavy for me practically, so it got sold; the more manageable SDGr body was Okay with layers and layers of kimono piled on, but the arms were still too short and the neck gap was bothersome. I didn't want to get him a non-Volks body because I want to take him to Tenshi no Sato someday.
      So! I decided to take some height off his head to get the eyes to halfway up his face rather than 1/3-ish, and do some mods to the SDGr arms and chest parts. I spliced about 15mm of length into the upper arms to bring his elbows down to navel level, and then bulked up the arm muscles and neck with more epoxy clay. I also took advantage of the way the SD17-sized neckhole sits on the SDGr neck and made the stringing hole in the neck more elliptical so he can tilt his head a couple more degrees.

      The white is Mr. Surfacer and I'll be airbrushing the additions to match, then blushing everything when I do his faceup.

    10. Those are some pretty cool modifications!! do you have some photos of how far he can move his head more? :XD:

      does Tenshi-no-Sato also accept modded Volks dolls? I'm pretty new to Volks dolls, so I'm not familiar yet with what their rules are ^^"
       
    11. I've ordered Hermione thru a proxy that was recommended here on DOA. Wish I could get Ron as well, but cannot afford both by end of August. HP has a special place in my heart. I read the books and watched the films with my daughter as she was growing up.

    13. Hi team! I was wondering, does anyone happen to have or have seen a photo of SD17 Andre blank? Thank you in advance!

      Also for the dolly tax, my Alice, Amandine:

    14. @snowgray I am forever obsessed with Amandine!! The color scheme is just so pleasing.

      I wish everyone luck for the upcoming Dolpa dolls! Fortunately I am safe, for the first time this year :XD:

      Doll tax, my one-off Kaelin I was able to buy second-hand. I love this sly fox! He has option magnets in his head, which is really neat, IMO!

    15. @snowgray I saw a blank sculpt of Andre 2 years ago on an IG. The owner or artist then repainted him. He’s gorgeous in different way :XD:

    17. @snowgray, thanks for finding a blank pic of Andre! At least that repaint looks happy, but... I'd like to see a "strong" happy expression instead of a weak one. That's just me, lol.

      I was just looking at the newest Pinkhouse girls' pics on IG. Pretty girls, and I can see Volks made them more generally appealing than Angela and Sophie, with sweeter and more girlish sculpts, and high heel feet. Their demand will leave Angela and Sophie in the dust, I bet.
