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.

    11. A little more progress...

      Definite
      * Build up a little more stock of purchased clothing.
      * Do faceups/blushing on Winry, Alphonse, Razzy, and Izi (inclusive of all sizes). -- 3/10 Winry is done, little Alphonse is next
      * Do final cleanup, retouching and blushing for big Jace. -- 1/14 DONE! Technically he still needs a bit of gloss, eyelashes, and restringing, but that's relatively small compared to where he started yesterday
      * Redo Adet to the proper skintone, testing out the Mod Podge sealing technique to preserve the color.
      * Get some Spoonflower "kits" designed and uploaded for sale, and ordered so I can create the tutorials too. -- 3/10 some preliminary work is done
      * Finish the current doll bed with its mattress, bedding and quilt (also do a tutorial for the quilt kit).

      Ongoing/Carryover from last year
      * Continue working on clothing patterns.
      * Continue making actual clothing.
      * Finish up Cetewind's wig (now that the right parts are here).
      * Continue working on Ed's automail mods (both MNF and LTF sizes).
      * Complete (more or less) replacing all eyes and wigs that still need replacing.

      Hopeful
      * Get Instar blushed and work on his wig.
      * Settle on a look for and blush/redo all the Soomlings.
      * Snag a couple of Soom bodies for the catgirls.
      * Bring home three additional dolls (FairyLand, Little Monica, Luts) to "complete" two sets. -- Whoops modified! It's now going to be six additional dolls; ordered an Illusion Spirit doll I've had my eye on before the end of the discontinuation event, adding one more FairyLand, and a third from a currently undecided company. -- Undecided doll is tentatively settled on as a Magic Time sculpt, unless bad communication from the dealer continues, in which case it's back to "undecided"
      * Replace Gabriel's body (again), and sell off the current one (then get him in line for his mods) -- Body is ordered, should probably move this to a definite section now...

      Longshot
      * Get a couple of F60s.

      15. Buying an RDJ head and possibly a body *hangs head in shame at my gullibility for a RDJ head*, and faceup to be Sherlock. Have plenty of 1890's-ish clothes. Have his brown 14mm eyes. PIF with extra WS body:doh.
      16. My Doll Family head came in that I ordered in August of last year (forgot about him). Interesting Elf eared vampire. Immediately started by modding his pointy nose and pointy chin, off to a roaring start. Perhaps he will tell me who he is before I do a faceup on him.

    15. Only a couple of plans at this stage, to bulk up my collection with some of the cheaper dolls on my wishlist, to get some better faceup materials and work on my faceups.
       
    16. - No new dolls this year :eusa_naug
      - Buy the eyes for Venitu
      - Make more wigs
      - Face up all my dolls and floating heads
      - Paint weapons of my full set dolls
      - Learn how to sew, knit,Crochet
      - Learn how to create things for the dolls
      - Make some basic outfits for my dolls
      - Make some shoes for the dolls
       
    17. Doll Plans for 2015
      1) Master face ups, especially eyebrows, even if it means I have to start over 100 times.
      2) Concentrate on making and buying clothes, shoes and wigs for the dolls I now have instead of adding more unexpected dolls!
      3) Try to stay away from the Marketplace. It's dangerous!
      4) Make accessories and settings for my dolls and try to use up materials I've acquired.
      5) Try to let go of some dolls then ....
      6) I want to add one slim MSD boy to my little group. I'm leaning towards Dollzone Ivan or maybe Leon. I'd really like both!
      7) and also a Dollmore Eve body with a Little Rebel Head for my Seven's girlfriend.
      8) Finally I have to try to wait patiently for my Dollzone Minas to arrive and then be content with the dolls I have. No more! No matter how much I like them!
       
    18. Update!

      Definite
      - Stick down the carpet in my diorama DONE
      - Finished all of the bedding in my diorama
      - Do Russell's face-up and blush his hands DONE
      - Make sure All dolly funds go towards improving current dolls until they are finished
      - Begin saving for a KDF and an SSDF body for my two heads
      - Finish Russell's default look (wig, eyes, shirt and shorts)
      - Make a photostory

      Hopefully
      - Get Ichiro and Russell's school uniforms No way is that gonna happen :sweat
      - Get some more clothes for Russell
      - Sew some clothes for Ichiro or/and Russell

      Longshot
      - Finish saving and purchase a KDF and an SSDF body for my two heads

      I'm getting there! Slowly :XD:
       
    19. QUIT BUYING DOLLS! Decide if I want to sell some of mine or not (it's scary to think about). "Finish" the ones I have. All of these are simple, but easier said than done.
       
    20. So I listed this on Jan. 14th and... I never can keep to these lists. It's like I'm genetically pre-disposed to NOT stick to them.

      *Get Ammiel's head modded and face-up done has been sent to the face-up artist
      *Buy S-hooks and proper wig for Ammiel Done!
      *Buy wig caps as required for various boys Done!
      *Save up to purchase either Rhas-Khan (Impldoll Ziv) or Eilian (Souldoll Rail). Bonus points earned if I could get both of them this year but not going to hold my breath on that. Uhhhhh... there's been a complication
      *Sew more clothes for the dolls that actually need them instead of the dolls that already have more clothes than they need *rolls eyes at self*. in the process of doing so
      *Take more/better photos of my dolls. Also take a group shot of everyone since the last shot is over 2 years old now and out of date with regards to my collection. not even close to started *sigh*
      *Go through and organize all doll clothes/shoes/eyes/wigs/miscl. props and put up the things I don't need/use in the MP. Related to this, invest in a better storage system for all my doll stuff as what I've currently got is over-stuffed and completely unorganized. not even close to started

      So the complication to saving for the 2 dolls that I've wanted to bring home for over 2 years is that I got sandbagged by another character that has been very vocal about coming home very soon. Then Dollshe posted about a stock clearance sale and it was my last chance to get the head I want in the colour I want and... yeah. Doll savings for the other two took a serious nose dive. But such is the way of dolls, right?

      Now added to the list....

      *decide on eyes and wig for Saraf and figure out just when he'll be coming home
      *decide if I want to get a body for the Dollshe head (assuming I hear back soon if it's still available) and figure out when/if to get that
      *DO NOT PURCHASE ANY MORE DOLLS THIS YEAR UNLESS IT IS RHAS-KHAN OR EILIAN. PERIOD.

      Yeah, we'll see how long that last one works out for.
