Face-up artist(s):

Me

Date of acquisition:

2018 November for the body, 2019 October for the head

Provenance:

Body is from Mandarake,
Head is from Ringdoll taobao shop. I am the first owner of the head.

Reason for choice:

I wanted a SD, a large doll.

At first I have bought the body. It is SD10 boy body. While posing is limited, sculpting is great. Besides it was cheap. I have started to search for the head immediately.

I used to be a fan of Ringdoll. I really wanted to own a sculpt from them. Around the end of 2018 Ringdoll released Messenger. I loved the sculpt from the moment I have seen it. Sad eyes, sweet smile. It was perfect for my OC. Still, I was reluctant to get it and waited few months. It was a hard to choose between TD bamboo, Shoushou Er Gou and Messenger. In the end I bought Messenger.

Best Points:

I love the sculpting. The height is ideal for me. The doll is very hug-able. The previous owner of the body wired the arms.

Worst Points:

Resin does not match. Body is yellow and the head changes colors from pink to yellowish depending on the light/time of the day. Moreover, sometimes, while looking at the head I remember how long I have waited for it, and the reason why it took it so long

Eyes:

Pabol blue glass (yes all my dolls share this pair)

Wig:

Heat resistant fiber, made by me

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is not available for offsite roleplay.
