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.

What are your doll plans for 2015?

Dec 24, 2014

Page 2 of 31
    1. Plans for when the weather warms up: get everyone sanded, bathed, blushed, and painted! Well, not all three will need to have all of that done (thank goodness). Find some horns for my incoming demon, along with a wig. And assuming I won't have better luck finding clothes, I'd actually like to revisit the possibility of making them. I'm also determined to take at least one photo of my dolls that half-way resembles what they look like in real life. They're gorgeous in person, but I fail miserably at capturing that on camera. Oh yeah, and my first doll just got his character sucked out of him to be shelled in an incoming doll, so now the poor thing is soulless! Definitely need to give him a second life. Hooray for new faceups! :)

    2. My plans this upcoming year are pretty modest.

      Definite:

      Buy shoes for Roane, Leo and Qwill.
      Organize my doll stuff.
      Settle on what wig and eyes I want on Leo.
      Get Pepper her face-up.
      Practice my photography more.

      Maybe, if I have the time/money:

      Bring Chulyen's girlfriend home.
      Get new face-ups for Leo, Mattie and Roane.
      Buy Leo a suit.
      Get a better camera.

    3. Simple plans: Get face up fixed for my Konane, finish one for last guy home.
      AND NO NEW DOLLS!
       
      #23 starlady, Dec 25, 2014
    4. Definite!
      - Purchase at least one new BJD I have wanted for a long time, wether it be new or secondhand.
      - Build my BJDs into the characters I have in mind.
      - Get my BJD(s) more clothes and customize them more.
      - Learn to do a proper face-up on resin, I've mostly practiced on MH dolls.
      - Finish making my BJD that I have already began to make from scratch.

      Possibly
      - Get an airbrush machine and practice using that.
      - Go to a Doll Meet-up for the first time

    5. I want to get my dolls all on bodies, dressed and faced up. That's it. I still need one WS girl body and a new boy MSD head to accomplish the first part of that but I also need to be well enough for a while to do the rest. I've just not been so mostly my dolls are sitting away all packed up, waiting...

    6. Sew more clothes for Kendra - she's not into frilly little girl clothes and anything else is rather hard to find.
      Experiment with making shoes for Kendra.
      Put together some jewelry for Kendra.

      She may get a friend her size next year, but that's not certain yet - she's not sure she wants to share.
       
      #26 k-meister, Dec 25, 2014
    7. Practice sewing clothes for my boy
      Improve photography
      Get new eyes and hands
       
      #27 axlluca, Dec 25, 2014
    8. 1. Buy a practice head and materials needed for face ups.
      2. Try my hand at face ups.
      3. Buy another Illy head and make William a less feminine face up (but keep the default face up since I also like it)
      4. Practice sewing more and learn how to use the sewing machine that's in the closet.
      5. Make a doll couch.
      6. Make a doll closet.
      7. Make cosplay from Angelic Layer for both my dolls (This will probably happen much later in the year after practicing sewing a lot).
      8. Buy a Mystic Kids Cris.
      9. Try making fur wigs (I saw a tutorial that I'm itching to try out).

      More to be added as I get new ambitions.

    9. *Maybe just get ONE doll next year (someone from the wishlist and not an impulse buy) - got 3 dolls and a head. All 4 sculpts are for existing characters but only 1 is from the wishlist.
      *Learn how to sew - taking lessons right now, fixed some clothes that were too big and made some tshirts for my Evol body.
      *Make more friends in the Taiwanese BJD community - joined a Taiwanese BJD community on facebook and made some Taiwanese friends.
      *Do more outdoor shoots - took someone out and he fell face first onto the stone floor. Chipped his nose...sigh. The two others were more lucky.
      *Sell off my none BJD collection (Living Dead Dolls, resin models, jrock magazines) so I have money to buy new BJD stuff
      *Do the faceup for my Iplehouse Lawrence - did that
      *Get my hands on a 80cm dollie bag - did that
      *Get rid of my IOS M head - managed to swap it with a WS head, YES!! even better!
      *Find IOS M a body (preferably a Soom old male SG body in white skin, or a white SD17 body)
      *Save enough to actually get Iplehouse Rex, Bane, Victor or Stella for Xmas - Unfortunately, Soom came out with their ID/MG free choice and I've been waiting for that since the beginning of time. Also, Ringdoll had a cool event where I can get a free head if I spend a certain amount and I wanted their bodies so one of my floating heads could share it so I went with Ringdoll as well.

    10. My collection grew far more rapidly than I expected in 2014, so I hope to slow that down.

      I'm looking forward to some things that are already set into motion:
      -Arrival of my 2nd tiny, ChongLan, and my 1st large doll, a sa-yu BoNee
      -Arrival of Mako Eyes for both my tinies and a professional clothing set purchased for Eun-Ryoung.
      -Continue to practice sewing for the dolls I have, improve garment quality and my own tailoring knowledge.
      -Main sewing goal currently is "Sul Bim" set I have planned for each of my tinies, which I hope to have done by Chinese New Year. (Edit: it definitely did not get done by then, but the project is not dead yet!)

      There will be new adventures too:
      Take my dollies out into the world for photos (Edit: have done a few, still awkward around people asking questions though, gah!)
      Attend my first meet

      And a couple of major hurdles that I've intended to conquer for a while, but have eluded me..
      -Begin to sell my homemade doll clothing and accessories - but only when I'm satisfied with the quality of my workmanship. And I remain very self-conscious about my work.. (Edit: Confidence improving!!)
      -Tidy up and childproof my apartment (friends had babies who now can walk and run.. time to put the dolls up even higher.. uh-oh!)
      -Plus, (in case the above wasn't dolly-related enough) Chong-Lan demands it. :lol:

      Mid-May check-in!
      •Bo Nee and ChongLan arrived, and both are gorgeous specimens! *u*
      •I love the clothing set that I ordered for Eun-Ryoung, and tried to express my gratitude to the crafter.
      •One of my dolls has a non-company name! My Luts Kid Delf Bory is now nicknamed "Marta" ^_^
      •My own clothing sewing quality has improved to the level where I send samples along with re-sale dolly items as freebies and get consistently good feedback about them. So my confidence is up and I might open a little Internet shop for sales soon ^_^
      •I somewhat impulsively brought home another doll (secondhand) after having my eyes on MW Junior size for awhile. She has been terrific company. She sees more adventures than almost any other of my dolls.
      •Recent previews from Oceanmoon show a 26.5cm more mature female body in production. It looks to be a counterpart to ChongLan, whose body is my favorite of all that I own. I plan on ordering that one for my Original Character's shell when it's available! :D

    11. I already gave it some thought, but it'll probably change again during the year :p

      Definite:

      - faceup my incoming dolls
      - blush their hands too
      - get them wigs and eyes

    12. Oh wow... plans... Well I don't have a lot for this year but no harm putting them down!

      • Bring Sakito or Myabi home, it'll have to be one or the other because I went way overboard in 2014
      • Order my Crobidoll T-line Duri before the ordering period ends this Spring
      • Get a body for one of the floaters; it'll be Memoir, Nero or Inaho that gets spoiled, but again, only one of them
      • No unplanned dolls, no unplanned dolls, no-unplanned-dolls
      • Get some eyes and wigs for those who need them as well as some more clothes
      And then the mandatory things

      • Man up and do more faceups
      • Practice more photography
      • Get around to sewing more because I've been slacking off...
       
      #32 Soenatte, Dec 25, 2014
    13. - Do my first face-up (and re-do it however many times I have to until I'm satisfied.) :sweat
      - Try to do some clothes sewing.
      - Get a decent wig and eye collection going.
      - Try to regularly post pictures on instagram.
      - And a big maybe, I might start saving up for Doll Chateau Amos.

      #34 Zlatko, Dec 25, 2014
    15. Since I am still new to the hobby, there will be so much to do, next year. :3

      Foremost I want to complete my big girl next year. ^^
      She is my long awaited darling and dear character and I totally cant wait, till her body and the extras I got her from Soom, will reach me here. <3
      Second place will be to find her husbands sculpt.
      I ordered a promising head already and if I am satisfied, its saving up for his body this year.
      I also have the wish for a Soom Dia circeling around, bu tmaybe that need wait a bit more longer. ^^

      Beside new dolls and projects, I also want to buy in general more clothes and extra stuff for my current doll.
      He did such a fantastic job, to cheer me up, that I want to treat him to a few special things. :3

      Of course I want to get better in faceups and sewing next year too, so I guess, beside RL-stuff, I will be very busy. :)

    16. I have so many ideas it's crazy!

      -I am going to get my SD girl a new face up, eyes, wig, and clothing. She is very classical looking and I want her to look more natural and cute.
      -I plan to have my Msd from Luts get a new longer pink wig because I don't really like short hair. (I don't want to change her to much since she was an event doll)
      -I bought a new wig for my Iplehouse kid and plan to get some colored eyes and more clothing and shoes for her. (She my current favorite to spend/ shop for.)
      -In two to three months time I will be receiving a Minifee Ante, and a Imda 1.7 Jane. I want to buy many new things for them and make dolly rooms for my favorite girls.

      Literally planning more but that's all for now.
