Cazz, what doll is that? She's gorgeous! <3

Thanks :) She's a Luts 2012 winter event with a nomyens face up. I actually got her on an impulse (she was a gift from my husband but I picked her) because I wanted a doll for Xmas and I'm so pleased I did, I love her more than I thought I would!
Oooh! Nice haul on both accounts, SaelaVe! :biggrin: Your Freyr somehow looks so tiny next to your MHs. I knew those ones were tall, but wow!
*LOL @ doll censoring* Is she really THAT accurate?
My Hujoo Freyr's face-up is complete.He looks great! I love the way you painted his markings!
I'm still working on detailing his body and making clothes for him.

Hujoo Freyr Face-up (https://flic.kr/p/QC75Wb) by SaelaVe (https://www.flickr.com/photos/saelave/), on Flickr
Was it mentioned at all? If it wasn't I would definitely say something. Getting a new face up can be costly if you get a good face up artist.
She's here...

I have like 5 dolls that have been sitting for about a year without faceups. I decided this week to start tackling some of them. Here is my first one, meet Twinkle.

She's here...She is adorable! Both her and Tika are on my PKF wishlist but it will probably be a long time before either of them comes home to me.

Does anyone happen to know if Blythe clothes fit Freyrs/Freyas? I bought some standard YOSD clothes for my Freyr but he's practically swimming in them! I thought Blythe clothes might fit better since they're smaller, but I don't own any, and I'm too hesitant to buy some and try it out myself.
wow SaelaVe, that's an amazing face-up!
So apparently the government made my mind up for Rin. Found out we will have to pay taxes this year. Yuck!
Still really curious to know what the starry alpaca on the last page was. :)
Loving those gals Tiella, what sculpts are they if you don't mind me asking?
I love your dress! Did you hand embroider those flowers? I just finished some outfits for my two girls I got fro Christmas and I wish I could do that for my girls. I can only make simple things to and that embroidery really pops on your dress :)
My 1/6 bjd prototypes are complete! At least the bodies. Still working on fashion, shoes, wigs, and all the other details. Progress pics soon!Can't wait to see!

Here's what I have been up to: a BJD head I started about three years ago but decided to finally finish during the coming summer. I call them Kaiho. They are a 1/3 sized head that can use 8-9" wigs and 14-16mm eyes. I plan to have them cast in resin after September.

I am crazy jealous that you have an ahkmel doll, tuney. That's probably one of my ultimate doll grails!
Beautiful pics as always :heart:
I can imagine! Maybe one day.
Anyways, I decided to snap a photo of one of my new dolls. I ended up with an unintentional hybrid of a Doll chateau Katherine with their B-07 body. She's still blank, I'm still not sure what I'm going to do with her. I was going to turn her into a sphinx, but I don't know quite how much modding I want to do besides giving her tail back to her.

Thank you! I always wanted to give a doll heterochromia and she seemed like just the candidate. As for resin color, Katherine and her sister sculpt madeline were both event dolls from last year so second hand you'll see white/pink/yellow. They do, however, seem to be available for order on denver doll emporium, so I bet they could be ordered in doll chateau's normal range of human skin tones along with grey and mint green.SpoilerI can imagine! Maybe one day.

How interesting. Is she available in other resin colors as well? LOVE the two different eye colors.

I've made a deal with myself that this is the year I'm gonna get on top of my BJD collection. Get everyone finished and rehome the ones I'm not doing anything with. But I'm soo confused as to what direction I want to take my dolls or who is going to go.. argh! How to decide??
Does anyone else have a grip on their dolly plans? Or are you more disorganized, like me?
Everyone's dollies are so beautiful! Most of their sculpts are going to be added to my ever-growing want list. xD I especially love some of the more unusual ones.
My first MSD arrived yesterday, and I managed to get one semi-decent picture of him! He's a Doll-Love Kaja named Vish.

Now that the weather is getting warmer (slowly) I may be able to take some of my doll babies out and get some better photos of them all.

I am super disorganized! Right now I have several in progress faceups, dolls sitting naked, no idea what I'm doing. Well, I am trying to figure out who I'm finishing first because the PNW BJD Expo is in a month and someone needs to come with me!

He's gorgeous! I don't always like fangs / vampire teeth cause they don't always look natural. But his look amazing!Thanks! I'm quite picky about fangs on dolls too, but his are not real bad and I love his face-up so much that I could've probably overlooked them anyway.

I managed to finish Florence's new outfit today. Now that I am looking at her I am thinking maybe she needs some head wear, too?

WOW! Those are amazing! Did you make the molds yourself?
I've never seen anyone make the doll and mold all original! I would love to be able to do that!
I'm in doll buying purgatory right now. I found a doll I fell in love with but the for sale post was from October of last year so I figured it was just an old post and he was probably long gone. I sent a PM anyway and was very pleasantly surprised when I got a response that he was still available! I wrote back asking for a shipping quote last Wednesday morning. I still haven't heard anything back D: I really want this doll but now I'm worried. If communication is this slow I'm not sure it's a seller I want to work with - and it is NOT a cheap doll.Photo is showing that famous PB "photo not found" image :(
I did buy this guy, though. He's a dollshe 18M fashion - a scaled down MSD version of their SD sized dolls. I don't know that any of the 18M dolls in this body style have been produced yet but what I've seen of the other body styles they are all super nice. He's my most expensive doll to date, but he is the first doll I'm buying for a really specific character so he had to be just right.

I'm going to faint with how much I've spent on dolls this month.
That's awesome too!! I can't wait to see them when you're done! :)WOW! Those are amazing! Did you make the molds yourself?
I've never seen anyone make the doll and mold all original! I would love to be able to do that!
No, though I'm flattered you think I am capable of such a feat! I've designed the line though and will sell the dolls as a full set (each will come with two sets of feet, the sea creature with two hands, dress, shoes, jewelry, etc)
That's awesome too!! I can't wait to see them when you're done! :)
TwistedRiver, your little girls are adorable! I have quite a few Ai dolls too.
NoDivision and TwistedRiver your boys are so handsome. I haven't gotten a boy bjd yet, though I'd like to soon. The Aimerai Weedy doll I'm getting will be my 4th girl. I have 3 - 1/4s and a 1/6. I'll have to post pics later.
How many of you have 1/3 size dolls? I've been wanting to get one but they are so big! Funny thing is, I think the biggest reason I want one is because sometimes I'll see doll clothes for a 1/3 that I love, but don't have a 1/3 to put it on. XD Granted I do see 1/3 dolls I love but have never made the leap to get one because of the size or the price!
He is most definitely going to be John Constantine, heh.
I had a new arrival yesterday! My camera can't really capture how pretty she is, but I am so in love with her! Not sure about a name yet, but I'm thinking maybe Tyra?Spoiler
The only trouble is that now my serious pouty-face Bygg looks soo sad next to her colorful new friend. I hope she'll look a bit better when she gets her purple wig!Spoiler
I do like them together, doesn't it look like they are trying to hold hands?Spoiler

That's what I thought. Great choice of character!! :lovey:

Ohmygoodness. I absolutely love their little feet! They look so precious, and the detailing on the little furry bits are so sweet.
Your girls are so sweet! Love them both! That purple color is stunning!

So Tyra (name pending) is a Soom Cheshire, yes? May I ask which body is Bygg? I'm still new to BJDs and assume that she's the same make, but don't know the models. Those little faun feet are just too cute, though! I'd love to look up more photos of her. :)

Yes, Tyra is a Soom Jr Cheshire, and Lirael is a Soom Bygg. They were limited and long sold out from Soom, but can be found on the second hand market with a little luck! Do look them up, they are gorgeous dollies! :)
Soom teenies do come up second hand quite a lot - all but one of my soomlings has come from the secondhand market. This little gal is probably my favorite of my teenie gems. But don't tell the others ;)

Den Of Angels is where I do most of my shopping. 2 of my dolls have come from ebay. Wherever I shop I always check for certificate of authenticity and, if the seller is someone I'm not familiar with or doesn't have a lot of feedback, I ask for additional photos.
Where have you had the best luck with second hand buys, out of curiosity? I've talked to other BJD enthusiasts and collectors who have each given different answers, so I'd love your feedback on that front.
I used rit dyemore, and it's definitely what I would recommend! The different company resins did dye at a different rate (resinsoul took the dye slower). Rit dyemore is potent but not too much so you have time to even out each part. That means I just held those pieces in the dye a little longer and I got the body to match the head. This in stark contrast to the other disperse dye I've tried, Idye poly. Idye poly is stinkier and also extremely potent (one part for 5 seconds in a purple was bright!) I'd only recomend it if you want a super bright neon color.SpoilerI first saw her on mobile, so I didn't get to see all the details... but she looks stunning now that I'm on PC! :)
What did you use to dye her? Did the two hybrid portions take the dye fairly equally or was it tricky?
(Just curious, I have no plans for dying any dolls anytime soon, but it's good to know in advance what other folks have tried/had success doing.)
Nice pic, Nodivision! He looks so at home in nature, even for being staged! I kind of want to pick up one of those mats now, it would definitely give my photos more variety without having to go outside.
Anyways, a shocking turn of events lead to me getting one of my grails! Dearmine nocturne!

Aww she's so cute! My Giorria is still naked and bald because my few attempts to sew for her tiny tiny body have been in vain.
Lots of heads fit the pure neemo bodies- they have I which is why you can buy blank bodies.
People usually use them to upgrade their Momoko and Licca and other similar dolls- I've heard of people using them for Blythe too.
I even used one for my Lady Lovelylocks doll- it fit perfectly!
I have never heard of someone attaching NOSE though lol??
I've been meaning to post photos of my two, Percy and Petunia. :blush: However it's raining out at the moment, so I only have photos of Petunia. :lookround:

Any exciting doll stuff happpening with anyone? I’m placing an order for a Nyxy’s creations Luna sometime later today. I just couldn’t resist that pearly violet resin..
Ery by CULUR is one of my favorite dolls but shes not selling them right now ... but thats the kind of doll i like.Hmm, maybe you'd like one of the cerisedolls lillycat mid sized girls? They're quite pear shaped and have been made in a few colors.
...anybody help? <3

So, for you BJD fans that are married, how do you 'convince' your spouse that a doll is worth hundreds of dollars?
My Popovy are *finally* on their way...now the real fun begins...
