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.

What are you Doll Plans for 2013?

Dec 13, 2012

    1. Oh gosh, so many plans! Firs the TO BUY List:

      1. Fairyland Order: Buy Pukipuki Pongpong NS, clenching hands, minifee hands 1,3,7, high heeled feet x2
      2. Withdoll Juwel Tan skin on the new boy body (or preferably a tan slim mini heavy-lidded boy with slim fingers who is between 42 and 44cm and good posability). Still shopping around for the right sculpt.
      3. Plump up each doll's wardrobe and accessories
      5. Tons of MSC, furniture, props, replacement wigs

      TO MAKE/DO/IMPROVE

      5. Redo Arinna's face up/anyone else's I may acquire in the new year.
      6. Body blush and MSC protect my dolls.
      7. Restring my minifee Shushu? This scares the crap out of me.
      8. Posterboard rooms for photosets
      9. Work on Dirra's wig until it's braided/arranged/decorated, etc. Perhaps make a headdress of some sort?
      10. Start thinking about my SD crew?
       
    2. 1) Make or buy clothes for my existing doll. (4 dolls in different size but only 10 items I have...)
      2) Do face-ups and Buy bodies for floating heads.
      ... just simple plans for 2013 XD
       
    3. To HAVE a resin doll FINALLY.
       
    4. Getting a Karsh, Ryeon & Soony are really my only plans right now.
       
    5. -Pay off my layaway, get a head, a full doll and a body. I'm already set on what I'll purchase so no adding U-U Maybe replacing...maybe.
      -Save up for winter event throughout the year in case something pops up during then.
      -Get better at sewing and face-upping.

      I wish I could add the getting of a better camera, but that's impossible, so hopefully in 2014 ^u^;;;
       
    6. :)Mine are.....

      1. Get another obitsu 60cm body

      2. Get the the obitsu 45cm body for Rini's head.

      3. Save up for the Anime north 2013 con.

      4. try not to use my CC intill the con is over with.
       
    7. My list is pretty short so far.

      Buy a new doll to fit a character I have in mind.

      Make more clothes for my current girl Rory.

      Use up those scraps of fabric I have laying around.
       
    8. Maaaannn... this is so embarrassing! Every year I do these threads and every year my plans are completely and totally derailed! They are more like a wish list!

      So my 2013 wishlist/plans/epic fail is:

      1- Bodies for the floating heads I got 3??-ish years ago?? My poor IoS boys! And they are so hawt too...
      2- Volks FCS- like I've wanted for SIX freakin years!
      3- More French dolls- Lillycat Lyse, and Nexus Seven from Nefer Kane- but the N7 pre-order ends in January...
      4- Pay off current Circus Kane doll..
      5- Save the money to be ready for next years X-mas deal! I miss them every year since being in the hobby- I kid you not! Every December I am in the hole for something and NEVER once have I gotten a free doll, or a head, or a whatever!
      6- Get head for floating body!
      7- Get body for Florence head
      8- Mod Another Secret Red Riding Hood to fit on Dollmore Judith body which turned out to be a not good body for my Leeke Florence...
      9- Maybe buy Lishe again! (Problem is she's not limited...)
      10- Whine and complain less about not having doll money
      11- See if Dust of Dolls comes out with anything when I actually HAVE money (which is never...)
      12- NO MORE FLOATING HEADS EVER! I swear to the resin gods! I hate having them! Full dolls only!
      13- Sew more
      14- Learn to use sewing machine I have but am too scared to try...
      16- Stick to plans!
      17- Stop being such a limited edition WHORE!

      I quit saying things like 'slow down buying' or don't buy anymore because that is never going to happen.
       
    9. Haha this is basically me! :lol:

      Guess I should boot my list on up here too!

      1. Get a tan body for my newly acquired Fenris head. I adore him and have no intention of selling him but floating heads don't last long around here...
      2. Re-paint my Sard, Seraph over the Christmas holidays. This means doing my first ever face-up :o
      3. Get Nero's tattoos done. That boy is INKED. I'd like to think I'd get this done in 2013 but we'll see.
      4. Buy the correct wig and eyes for Seraph. Poor thing has been waiting since '09.
      5. Buy the correct wig and eyes for Nero. Should be easier.
      6. Finish the layaway for the boy Asa that I intend to buy from Iple in the CDS this December.
      (7. Cry when I can't afford the other dollies that come out whilst I pay him off.)
      8. Buy no other dolls until LLT Ludwig comes out. I need that boy and I want to make sure I have money for him!
      9. Buy the right wigs and eyes for my Asa boy and my soon to be bought Narin.
      10. Make sure all my dolls have at least one outfit each.
      11. Do more photography! It's hard when I'm at uni with no light and no space ._.
      12. Try and get hold of a macro lens.
      13. Try try TRY to practice sewing more!
      14. Buy some props like a sofa or something for photoshoots.
      15. Get better at saving. Maybe open a savings account on the side to specifically put money into for dolls.
      16. Repaint my Limhwa Limho Mono. It's time he got a more boyish face-up!

      And the adding begins, oh lawd...
       
    10. Ahh, change of circumstances this year has put the dolls on hiatus. ;; I'm losing my job, so my 2013 plans are to just enjoy the dolls, eyes, wigs, shoes & outfits I have now! I do have plenty to play with, so it's a good thing.

      But the overarching master plan is to get a job that's at least good enough to buy my long-awaited Iplehouse Lee. He's still the last one I'm waiting for a good window-of-opportunity to get... Poor dude got postponed all of last year too, but looks like he'll have to just hang out in limbo for awhile more.
       
    11. My plans for 2013 basically involve:

      1. New eyes for Lily (Purchase probably not necessary--I have eyes I would like to use that just need some modification to fit in her eyewells.)
      2. Commission a new faceup for Mimi
      3. Dedicated photoshoots with the dolls
       
    12. This year has been a pretty exciting year for me, I got my very first BJD :D so my plans for 2013 are

      1) Buy more dolls to add to my doll family (I have a few in mind)
      2) Look for the doll whom I think would be the perfect antagonist to go with my story for my dolls
      3) sew more so I can make clothes for my dolls
      4) practice face ups
      5) get better acrylic for my face ups

      I think 2013 will be just as exciting as this year. I'm looking forward to it
       
    13. Let's see...my doll plans for 2013

      1. Faceup/bodyblush/etc. my incoming SDF Uriel
      2. Faceup practice.
      3. Learn to take better pictures
      4. Body blush/tattoo a few of my dolls
      5. Work on better posing
      6. Become a bit more involved in the community.
      7. Finally buy a DoT Ducan. I've been in love with him for YEARS. It is time.
      8. Learn to sew better so I can start making the oufits I have in mind for my dolls
      9. Build. More. Props. I'd like to try my hand at furniture. Or at least...customizing stuff into furniture
       
    14. 1) Save up so if the perfect new FeePle60 comes along, I can snag it up. They re-released the 05 Juri... if they re-release the 06 one I HAVE TO HAVE IT!
      Well... I HAD this one, but then a spent a good chunk of it on a KD Ttrori Elf girl. It is okay though! She was on my wishlist, and I still have enough to get a layaway started if an event comes along!

      1.5)* Get my new girl that stole my event money her wig, outfit, boots and all the awesome steampunky goodness I have planned for her). DONE! (well, she went in a different direction, but she is COMPLETE!)

      2) Get that darn grey skinned Dikadoll Rena Elf that I have been putting off for forever. I have a bad habit of putting of getting "basic" dolls, the something happens and I am then unable to get them. (For example, a Delf DES, now no longer in production, Mushroom Peddler Scratch which is being retired)
      (Well, my super awesome husband was plotting to get Rena for me for our anniversary, but then he heard me talking about a DES in the MP. Sooooo, instead of Rena, I am getting a DES! Poor Rena, will you ever come home?)


      3) Blush ALL the bits!!!! Seriously... I have a lot of Soom teenie bits that need blushing. (Tried, failed. Going to try again next year when I can spray again).

      4) Get a proper wig for my WS Hati. DONE!!

      5) Not fall for ANY Soom dolls! This is about as likely to happen as the whole "lose weight" thing that I try every year. :sweat
      (Puss in boots was NOT a Teenie, therefore so far so good! And I have lost 10 pounds!)
      (Still going strong 8 months in to the year!)
      I think I did it! No new Sooms for me this year!

      abcd = Not gonna happen this year
       
    15. I've been in an out of the hobby recently due to college and I've realized that this is the longest I've gone without falling for a new doll.
      I realized this a few days ago and so went a'searchin'. And I found a doll I aspire to get in 2013! :D
      Otherwise, I need to:
      1. Get Lex's new wig.
      2. Redo Lex and Sky's faceups.
      3. Make this list longer :D
       
    16. A few of my crew need face-ups, and I would like to have my "grown up" versions of Kestrel and Cardinal at some point, but beyond that? Nothing in paricular.
       
    17. I don't know yet. I've been thinking about a Zaoll (maybe if a tan one is available), but really I think I need to thin the herd. I only bought one doll this past year, but I went a little overboard in 2011 and still feel like my doll posse is a little over-crowded.

      We shall see.
       
    18. -get a body for at least one of my floating heads and a minifee shiwoo for sure :)
      -practice faceups more
      -get back into sewing
      -enjoy the dolls i have instead of adding 5 more like in 2012!
       
    19. I love this thread! It's so fun to read everyone's plans.

      As for me, I'd like to get some of my blank heads painted and find a body for one of the floaters. I have one more character I'd like to shell, if I can find the right doll. Other than that, I really need to make lots of clothes! I have a lot of dolls and several of them are still half-naked or wearing someone else's mis-matched, ill-fitting clothes.
       
    20. I have a really big photostory/project thing I'd like to attempt, but before that I need at least one doll to arrive (Dollzone Ro), and a large chunk of them need new faceups, huge cleanings and a redo of body blushing and mod work D:

      I'd also like to get some decent clothes for some of them, get rid of the stuff hanging around that I really don't use, and finally FINALLY get some props and sets going.

      My actual Wish List for 2013 is pretty small right now, and I'd like to keep it that way, and not be in any hurry to bring them all home. I think I'm ready for a couple extra heads for one certain doll, and another could use a different head, but those are really the only things I'm seriously thinking about now.

      I really need to reorganize my doll space. It's a mess right now and it would be nice to have them look nicer where they sit....
