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.

Page 25 of 31
    1. Well, well... my plans for the rest of the year are:

      * Pay the last 3 installment for my two new DC dolls: Isabel (Lénaig) and Matthew (Uriel??) *_*
      * buy a carrier bag
      * choose and order two wigs from Leeke
      * Do a better body blushing for my DC Caelin (Elizabeth)
      * Change the faceup of my Caelin
      * do the faceup & bodyblushing of my two new dolls
      * do the Matthew outfit by myself

      That's all... maybe... :D

    2. Well, my first girl isn't even here yet but I have some things I'd like to get accomplished by the end of the year! I'll just call her 'her' for the time being.
      -Create her character and find her a suitable name. Naming dolls is so difficult for me :roll:
      -Finish her wardrobe, including buying a nice alpaca wig as well as one or two others so she can change up her look.
      -Hopefully Makoeyes will restock by the time she arrives so I can have some gorgeous purple eyes for her, if not, I still will need some purple/violet eyes!
      -Create her apartment. I adore setting up dioramas and I feel like my first (and probably only!) BJD should have herself a place to live, especially after a long journey across the world!
      -Possibly get her faceup commissioned by the very end of the year. I ordered her with her default faceup so she won't be blank, but I'd still like to give her a unique face.

    3. Updating again:

      1. Get bodies for Priss and Linna Got Priss' body in hand as of 2/10!
      2. Work on actually getting more clothes for everybody!
      3. Start on saving for Nene if I can get #1 accomplished I have Nene's head on order as of 6/3

    4. Let's see what Loptr's accomplished by the first month of summer.

      From a different thread, posted in 2014:

      I.: Well, body anyway. And Doll Chateau hasn't finished it yet. I suspect, judging from the Dollzone order I made last year, it shall arrive sometime in August or September. I've still got layaway payments to make. I am hoping to complete at least one more of my floaters before the year is out.

      II.: Still not finished, but he does have a wig, and epoxie lurks on my craft shelf once again. I've been practicing other mods, because I want those particular ears to turn out as nice as possible.

      III.: With all the heads and more recent dolls I've acquired, faceups have seen a definite improvement. I taught myself a completely new technique for doing lip lines that doesn't involve paint. Also, more open-mouthed sculpts makes for more practice coloring teeth.

      III.: Still nada. One day I shall have a regular Grey Haven... there has to be someone amongst them to laugh at my terrible puns.

      IV.: Well, everyone who still needed them at the time is now covered. But two new dolls will require wigs and eyes, and I lost one of Beliaer's 16mms when removing them to redo his faceup...more are in our future.

      V.: Probably not going to happen this year, mostly due to location of said meetups. I have attended a couple of mini-meets with semi-local friends though. Good times.

      VI.: Hmmm. Not exactly bulk purchases, but I have steadily bought things for my current dolls in between saving and paying off that layaway. No clothes though; only wigs and eyes. I do need to purchase them some new threads.

      VII.: ARGH! Darn you, Fairyland, and your incredible dolls! Still no full Minifees here. The only one I am set on at this point is an older/mellowed white skin female A-line body for Alabaster. The man is canonically a hermaphrodite in my stories, and I intend resin Alabaster to reflect that. I almost got ahold of one last month, but alas, did not have enough funds in time.

      VIII.: The thing I failed to realize in setting this goal is that I simply do not have the space in my current location to build a dedicated diorama that is anything above Puki size. I've been getting more experimental with furniture arrangement and location for temporary shoots.

      IX.: The completion of this goal is a continual, likely eternal evolution. I'd like to think I've made some small steps of progress.

      X.: I am not sure I have accomplished this in solid lump some outside of doll sales, but in terms of layaway, I am definitely hitting higher goals. It is nice to bring some of the higher-end resin I've been wanting to toy with into my home.

      So, now that 2015 is actually upon us, I'd like to give myself an updated version of this to do list:

      *Bodies for these heads. How many times shall I write it before it is done? And between Christmas, unexpected trades, and a grail on the MP, I now have three more than what I started with.
      *Finish Beliaer's faceup and get him some new eyes.
      *Finish my new DBDoll Ronger and Juri '06/Feeple70 hybrid. Finishing a doll before buying another one is always good.
      *Clothes, darn you, clothes! Shoes too, while you're at it.
      *Improve at modding, be it subtractive or additive.
      *More stop motion. BJDs are a fussy subject for this; one cannot simply put some sticky tack under their feet and go. I dread working with them when it comes to animation, particularly full-body movement.
      *Post more of the lore, artwork, and development surrounding the characters. Photostories would also be good, if manageable.

      I have a more extensive, doll-specific list of this nature taped to the bathroom vanity. Happily, I've been able to cross off more items than anticipated.
       
      #484 Loptr, Jun 9, 2015
    5. This is good to plan out what I want to accomplish with my BJD's. These are in no particular order.

      1. Wait patiently for my Littlefee and my Pukifee which I ordered last month.

      2. When they arrive, find wigs and shoes for them and make them some clothes.

      3. Wait patiently for my 3 Doll Leaves dolls to arrive.

      4. Do faceups on the Doll leaves dolls.

      5. Dress and wig the Doll leaves dolls.

      6. Suede my Qian. Then find or make a pattern for her and make her an outfit.

      7. Make an outfit for my Narsha.

      8 Make a mohair wig and outfit for Lan.
       
      #485 Silvertabby, Jun 9, 2015
    6. Allie's temp eyes and preliminary wig are here, I have things set aside for him to wear (though they aren't his actual aesthetic) and know which eyes I want for him to wear more permanently. (I got the eyes!) I even know exactly what clothes I'm going to get for him, but that's going to have to wait for a little bit. Right now I just have to wait for him to get here. Also I'm going to be revamping my pukifee--just getting her a new wig and some nicer clothes, but it's low priority. Just like Max's jacket.

    7. This year I want to try and get my first SD girl. Since I am MSD person, I have tried it with SD boys and it ended with selling it right after I have received him. Way too big, heavy and too wide shoulders. This time I want to give it a go with a girl, probably a SupiaDoll. I also want to get my grail mold and start practicing more on sewing my own bjd clothes=)
       
      #487 Azali, Jun 13, 2015

      -Finish current story arc of Adventures in Azeroth

      Hopeful

      #488 she_flame, Jun 14, 2015
    9. This year I'm really after chasing down some April story/doll she / ring doll sculpts! I love the brands but don't own any from the companies :(
       
      #489 Zaada, Jun 14, 2015
    10. I need to order a body for my grey floating head, an Impldoll Moon. I'm most definitely leaning towards getting the Impldoll female deer body for her. In grey to match her of course. Other than that, drooling over my grail and saving his picture. A resinsoul red ox. Le sigh.
       
      #490 coagie42, Jun 14, 2015
    11. Well, the list I posted on another forum was this:

      1. I'm hoping to get my first dollfie for 2015. - *ACHIEVED*
      2. Sew lots of things for her! - I dunno, I've sewn some stuff for her, but I haven't had her long enough for it to be a lot.
      3. Make her a cute room. fail - :(
      4. Be bankrupted from buying her too much.... - *ACHIEVED*
      5. I'd also like to get my other dolls the makeovers they so very badly need. Guess we'll see! Erm, partially achieved.

      Honestly, I have a lot I need to do with my dolls while the weather is warm and dry. Most of my dolls are in desperate need of new face ups, and one of the ones I have re-done is getting wiped again to start over. I'm just not happy with how it came out enough to keep it.

      I guess to tack on a few more"

      6. Update my doll's wardrobe, EVERYONE is needing some fresh threads
      7. Go through and catalog all of my clothes, accessories, and props (And during this process either toss or sell what isn't working for my collection anymore)
      8. buy new wigs for my older dolls
      9. Improve my doll space

      I'll check back later in the year and see how I'm doing on this :P.
       
      #491 LinaInverseTsg, Jun 18, 2015
    12. Updating again!

      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 and big Al are 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. -- 6/17 more patterns are actually together!
      * Continue making actual clothing. -- 6/17 more clothing finished too!
      * 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. -- Ordered Liora's!
      * 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. -- This one keeps changing up...
      * Replace Gabriel's body (again), and sell off the current one (then get him in line for his mods) -- 6/17 His new body's here, so I'll consider this done when the old one's gone!

      Longshot
      * Get a couple of F60s.

      ...whoops I totally killed my notes here accidentally.

    13. The only plans (that I plan to plan) for this year are:

      Kid Delf Cherry Elf Girl, pre owned by a friend, that I'm currently paying. She's my first doll's little sister, and I've gotten preliminary eyes and wig for her already.
      A BBB Fei head, the sleeping version of Mei whom I already own.
      I'm also awaiting a pair of acrylic eyes for my PukiPuki Sugar, since the glass ones are a bit too deep and dark to show and I wanna try something else and I'm too lazy to get a dremel and fix the eye sockets. Also, I'm not sure that it would be a good idea to take on such a tiny and delicate face plate.
       
      #493 Tindomiel, Jun 20, 2015
    14. I've been working so hard on this list and was so focused that I suddenly had an epiphany and realized I'd actually completed it all! Hooray!:) So here's my update.

      1. (a) Make an outfit every month (entirely out of cute socks!) to build up my gaming characters' wardrobes. And (b) document this endeavor in the workshop forum here on DoA. Done! I've made many outfits over the past 7 months and everyone now has clothing. In fact, it's been so successful and so much fun, this project will remain ongoing into the future (although perhaps at a more casual pace.)
      2. Make some decisions about how to decorate a Heroes of Might and Magic display area and expand the one for my Pokemon character as well. I really need to get these both completed by the end of the year. Done! I'm very happy with how they turned out.
      3. Make my crew some Tibetan mohair wigs. Done! I've made several thus far, and they all have their perfect wigs now.
      4. Update the conservatory display area for Bohemia Rose (Dollzone Anson.) It needs some re-vamping since her character has grown so much this year. Done! This was my last big decorating project and I love how it turned out.
      5. Join some themed sewing project threads here on DoA to build up Angora and Bohemia Rose's wardrobes. Done! They both have multiple new outfits and there will be more to come.
      6. Finally shell my 2nd beloved gaming character, Shandre (choose a company and a sculpt...and try to get her home and completed before the end of the year.) Done! I chose a Withdoll Dark Elf Angela...gave her a faceup, new eyes, made her a wig and clothes..she's complete.
      7. Since she's a Beastmaster, get Shandre her own companion fantasy animal by Creatures of Nat (oh yes, definitely!) I actually purchased two for her and have a final one currently on layaway to complete her set of 3...so yes, more than done!
      8. Fall in love with something small enough to inhabit my fabulous fairy-house and bring them home. I did try this...twice this year already...but it was a complete and utter bust so they didn't stay.:doh I finally decided to use an MSD to interact with the fairy house instead, and she's already been ordered. (She'll be a DollChateau Alberta head on a Dollzone Renata body...the ultimate forest spirit.)
      9. Maybe shell my final (yet oldest) gaming character, Shalimar...if I can come up with a good way to represent her unique character. I managed to get her her own "fairy kingdom" in the form of Lego Elves sets, and chose a Doll Chateau Queena to shell her character. All done!
      10. Keep hunting for that elusive Pipos Curo I've been wanting to replace for years (why, oh why did I ever sell him?) I actually found the perfect fullset in the marketplace...done!
      11. :DI'm going to treat myself to one final doll this year...something very special I've been lusting after for years (one of those limited or discontinued dolls I just couldn't manage to get in time.) There's quite a few of them. I'm not sure which one yet...it all depends on what I can find in the secondary marketplace here on DoA. I found a Soom Teenie Gem Sov centaur and brought her home as a re-shell of a well loved character of mine. And then I discovered a Soom Teenie Gem Lilid cat-taur to befriend her as a re-shell of another of my dearly missed OCs. I currently have her on layaway...so yay, I managed to get two! So I'm more than done!
       
      #494 PoeticSoul, Jun 20, 2015
    15. Get one of every size of the smaller fairyland dolls(I only have one PP Piki at this time) and by next year I'd like to have one of each size up through LTF size.

      Find a DH Kinoko.

      Finish my tinies Dollhouse.

      Finally learn to thread crochet for my tinies' outfits so I don't have to buy them anymore.

      Keep practicing my faceups and finally finish some long put off face ups on some OT dolls..

      I'm sure there will be more I wanna do before Dec 31 2015... To be continued....
       
      #495 Dahleigh, Jun 22, 2015
    16. My 2015-2016 doll plans:
      1- buy am-007 mako eyes for my mnf celine :)
      2- sew/knit/crochet a proper outfit for both my dolls!
      3- define properly the personality of my dolls!! (Most important)
      4- draw a logo for my FB dolls page xD

      ... I know it's quite simple...but I don't have a lot of time to dedicate to my dolls... So I'd like to keep it to a minimum as I really would like to achieve these! :D
       
      #496 .lilli., Jun 22, 2015
    17. My plans for 2015 are very long termed, as I practically promised to my partner and I wouldn't buy another doll too soon (actually, I had only planned to buy one in October and then I ended up buying a second one on occasion in November - he agreed, because I purchased her from a very dear friend of ours), so my Oliver (Honey Delf Pie) and Kathrine (K.I.D. Bambi) will have to wait. It's actually a good thing I have to wait for Bambi: as I couldn't purchase her in the limited edition period, I'm hoping she will be released as basic like it happened for others in few months. So, there, hope XD.

      Plus, I am participating in a big project with fellows doll-collectors, money will go there too ^^.

      As for the rest, I plan to spoil a bit my girls with some props or toys (I really want to find some nanoblocks for Emma), and I plan to enjoy them *a lot* :D.

      Happy 2015 for you all, may your year be full of dolls :D

      Update

      Honey Delf Pie ordered in April (waiting for him) as Luts had discounts. Sadly I didn't manage to get everything I wanted, but I bought enough XD.

      K.I.D. Bambi has been added to the Doll Choice and I will wait to see if Iple makes the same offer of DC at basic price in December, otherwise I'll wait for her to eventually become basic (or see If I find one second- hand from Europe)

      I have added Aquarius Mia G to my list to shell my Larp Character, Meike Hannelore Pappenheim.

      Soooo this should be the whole update!

      Update 2

      Remember how I have a WISHLIST? Well, I just happened to have a bad case of infatuation with the Luts SDF Event Head... so Romance Carmine was NOT ONLY added to my wishlist, but I actually found one and I'm waiting for him :D.

      Now the doubt: SDF OR SDF65 body?

      He'll be the companion to my Meike (a doll I still have to purchase XD)...
       
      #497 Enid Black, Jun 22, 2015
    18. My priorities are Fables new faceup and body blushing, and when Hemlock gets here then she'll need hers doing as well. I might send them both off at once, I'm not sure yet.

      I also have three dolls in particular that I want to buy, but I also want to start on a diorama once I'm moved.
       
      #498 quietlycapernoited, Jun 22, 2015
    19. Paying off my Soom Rosette/FairyLand Chicline hybrid doll the rest of the way (paid on layaway originally thru DDE with payments on 6m PayPal 0% plan).... and then possibly turning around and doing it again. I need another same combo hybrid!
       
      #499 Christina in FL, Jun 22, 2015
    20. My doll plan is finally buy a doll. I just got new interest in doll hobby again, now I really want one, or five, or ten!
