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 was the first sculpt you could recognize?

Dec 29, 2013

    1. The first sculpt for me was the RS Mei. Probably because she was my first and I spent forever looking at her on the website. I even got into a heated debate with a woman over the sculpt lol.
       
    2. Probably Volks four sisters. There weren't many companies back then and as a newbie I thought I should check Volks first, me and my sister also had some of their 1/6 dolls.
      Then I found the Dream of Doll site, they only had MSDs then and my favourite was Yu. Now I like Kirill more, but I think he's actually a dreaming version of the Yu mold so I didn't really change much :XD:
      After that I found the Serendipity dolls, I can recognize all of them. Sharmin was popular back then, she was everywhere. And it was full of Noel on ebay. I still regret not getting it then, but I did found one in the end :)
       
    3. I think Volks Super Dollfies have very unique faces. Once you know the names, you'll be able to recognize them all! However, this can be said about other doll companies as well. I think maybe the more you like the company's dolls, the more you can distinguish a Luts doll from a Fairyland doll. Every company has its own little quirks.:pcupcake:pcupcake:pcupcake:pcupcake
       
    4. I'm still fairly new to the hobby, but the first dolls I could recognize were the Minifee Chloe and Celine because I saw them everywhere on Tumblr. I'm starting to find that I can recognize more and more, especially the sculpts from individual artists more, like Salome or any of the Lillycat Cerisdolls. I can recognize Doll Chateau pretty easily now too because I stalk they're website so much lol.
       
    5. Leekeworld Mikhaila was the first "ooh I know which sculpt that is!" for me. Her eyes cute, droopy eyes and curvy body totally drew me in. :)
       
    6. Dollzone/Doll Chateau have become noticeably recognizable to me and so are Dollmore dolls. Fairyland bodies and certain faces. Realpuki are easily recognizable.
      I also find certain other dolls like dust of dolls or dream high studios very recognizable. Most doll companies can however mix well ib my opinion.
       
    7. Definitely fairyland chloe, and soon after most other fairyland sculpts XD
       
    8. Some of the Dollshe sculpts and the Doll Chateau sculpts are most recognizable to me. :)
       
    9. Any Narin doll, because they were the very first ones I had the pleasure of seeing in person. Bimong has a very distinct sculpting style.
       
    10. Fairyland Pongpong with open mouth~ This sculy is just so cute and unforgettable xD
       
    11. Probably Migidoll Ryu or Iplehouse EID Luna. All thanks to Dollstars and PropertyoftheUchiha on DeviantArt.
       
    12. Pukifee Ante was the first sculpt I could recognize. Over time, I started being able to recognize many of the other Fairyland sculpts as well.
       
    13. I recognize easily any Fairyland Pukipuki and Pukifee sculpts, and also most of the Littlefee sculpts.
      I also recognize a few specific sculpts from others companies that I love and often checked pictures before.
       
    14. Just about anything minifee. And DC bodies as well. They're super different :) (in an awesome, good way)
       
    15. Like many others, El, Shiwoo, Lishe and other CP/ Luts sculpts were ruling the popularity scale when I came into the hobby and I can still recognize an El fairly quickly (I should hope so since I own an MSD one...).

      I'm terrible at sculpts and companies, though. I'm more of a collector so I wander in and out of the hobby fairly regularly so I don't really keep up with what's 'hot' and what's new at any given time. Chances are, I wouldn't know a Soom doll if it bit me on the nose, despite the 1000000000 I see on the MP these days.
       
    16. i began collecting back in 2004 , Luts Lishe was the first that really kept popping up to me, i loved the sculpt and knew i had to have one. so id say Lishe ,Still a classic beauty
       
    17. Well,not really good at it. The first I can recognize is enchanted doll. It is just way too special.
       
    18. I think I am pretty good at recognising sculpts, especially from my favourite companies. Mainly because I have spent so many hours poring over their websites and owner pics on Flickr whilst wiping drool from the keyboard. As a rule of thumb I would never buy a sculpt I couldn't instantly recognise in owner photos because I like more idiosyncratic sculpts. Those tend to still have a distinct personality no matter how differently painted of accessorised, just personal taste.

      Tinnies do not interest me at all though, I guess that is why I still cannot tell one from another. They could all be Tribbles for all I know! ;)
       
    19. Dollshe Hound and Luts El. The El, because when I came into the hobby they were EVERYWHERE, and the Hound because it was the 1st doll I felt I "had to have."
       
    20. I can usually recognize the Popov Sisters sculpts. They are all so unique and beautifully done, from sculpting to clothing and wigs. I'll probly never have one, though, because I like a sculpt to speak to some inner part of me............
