Anyone have off-topic Hujoos?

I sold my minipin (the baby bunny) and mini Freya near the start of this year (I just couldn't bond with them, but at least I learned that dolls that small aren't for me) so unfortunately I no longer have any, but...

I'm throwing my oar in though because I'd love to see a Little Rose if anyone has her! Especially next to other dolls for comparison. I like small dolls, but apparently I have line somewhere between "good small" and "too small". I can't figure out where Little Rose sits from the promotional pictures alone. XD

 

Heck yeah I do.

I have got:

An orange Berry
A minipin
An Arthur

Husband has a Berry and a Yomi and another Berry on the way.



this is my Minipin, his name is Fennic. He's a space pirate.



this is Lo'Gan, she is an orange Berry with a custom modded head crest. She's also a space pirate and hangs out with Fennic and a bunch of Makies.



And finally this is Arthur, who's MSD sized and was the start of my slippery slope into BJDs heheh.

 

I've got Rose - not the mini version but she is cute and yes I'd like her too They're great dolls I think - a bit rougher finished than resin bjd but very poseable and surprisingly heavy - she's heavier than some resin ones I've got!

right!?? My Arthur weighs a blooming ton! He's really really heavy to carry around while my Resinsoul is so light compared to him.
I thought she'd be heavier because I always heard resin was heavy, but nope. Arthur is so much weightier.

 

I sold my Hujoo phoebe because she didn't really fit in with my group sizewise, and she wasn't getting much attention. The fact that she could wear regular fashion doll clothes was pretty cool. Qualitywise, I thought she was pretty great

My mini freya is my baby though. I need to give him a new faceup

 

I'm new to the BJD community and as I'm just starting out I only have a Hujoo Phoebe doll and plan on getting another Hujoo that is in the SD size to see if I like the SD size more than the YOSD size that I have now. This is a picture of my girl that I colored myself. She's a Dedenne(Pokemon).

 

thanks that's a great idea for styling your girls as robots - I'm not at all creative with my dolls

oh they are so adorable I love them both angelesque doesn't seem to deal for half of hujoos dolls for some reason, and importing from America is expensive in the UK - I'd love a nano Freya especially

she's lovely - great style

 

Freya is my first baby!!
She's gone through 2 face ups and I'll probably redo it again in the new year because I'm still not 100% happy! She's also been restrung so I could fix her tail on...
I have made all 3 of her wigs myself and will be making another soon, when I do my dreads, I'll make her some matching ones! Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet

 

@americanseamstress haha that's awesome! How come she reminds you of the painting? It's awesome, but random!

 

I just got a 24cm Freyr for Christmas. He was actually one of the first dolls that caught my eye back when I started to become interested in BJDs a few years ago. I've wanted him every since and finally have him!
I love him so much! I'm already thinking about ordering a Sara as well.

 

@americanseamstress I just ordered her! I love the way that her mouth is sculpted! It's one of the things that first drew me to her. I can't wait for her to get here!

 

I like my cute hujoos. I got a Dana (MSD size), Berry (26) and 2 Bunny and the new tiny Rose with 15cm which isn't finished yet.
The cheaper ones like Berry or the bunnys are very light weight but Dana is heavy like my resin BJDs. The gear joints are nicebut I think I prefer the normal joints. The newRose has in some joints rubber attached to the joints so she can hold poses better. She is a masterpice of construciton.. itty bitty tiny peanut joints in this size *-*
Here is my Dana

 

Ahhh I see it now you mention it!!

 

ooh she's beautiful - love the way you've styled her too And yes please I'd love to see the mini Rose - I've got the normal sized one and she's so cute

 

I most definitely will. She shipped this morning, so she should hopefully be here by the end of the week.


@SteffiPuschel Your Dana is gorgeous!

 

Thank you. I just finished her wig. I couldnt find wigs in her size that i like. Now im about to make her eyes and she need a faceup and clothes too. If you want a short body review or some poses i can do for you. Atm she is headless and far away from being finished

 

I love all the pretty doll pictures everyone is posting! I just got a new dress for my Dedenne doll and it has Pokeballs on it! She looks adorable in it!

 

No, some one was nice enough to give me a SD sized skirt and I just added a ribbon to keep it on her.

 

Not the one shown above. The one for rose because she had 3-4 as size and ive never show it here

 

Guys... I'm already thinking about getting a Chocolate Suve, too.
Help me, I've become obsessed! LOL

 

@americanseamstress I completely agree. This is the first time that I've bought a BJD and instantly wanted more from the same company!

 

I had a Hujoo Dana, Freya, Freyr, and Nano Freya that glowed in the dark, but they became toast in a fire. Luckily, my Chicaloca survived and I'm ever so happy because she has the prettiest face I have ever seen.

 

Just have this tiny one when i waited to let it dry since poor rose is currently headless



It is made out of Soy

 

I like it. It is soft and fluffy but natrual fibers came in strands so you need to pull them little by little to get them even at the beginning if you understand what i mean. Actually I've never tried to make it wet
I bought it after seeing this
Plant Fiber Comparison for Doll Wigs
She dyed it so I guess it could get wet


Here is my Berry. Faceup and dress is done by me. Actually I made it for my Pullips but the wear the same size ^^

 

@TwilightFox I'm so sorry to hear that.

@SteffiPuschel Your Berry is so cute! And she wears the same size as Pullips you say? That's good to know.

 

Thank you 2. Yes only the hands are bigger so shirt with super tiny armwholes wouldnt fit and socks also because of the bigger feed

 

Ooooo! She is immensely cool, @americanseamstress!
I love the modifications that you made to her! And the dye job looks incredible—really even!


My Sara arrived today! OMG I am so in love with her! I can't wait to start working on her face-up. I think that I'm going to do a kind of Pullip style on her, rather than the "realistic" style that I've done in the past.

Wow. How did you get the head on the body? Isuls have a really tiny neckwhole. Looks really interesting

Congratulations for your sara. She is really pretty

 

@SteffiPuschel Thank you. ^_^


@americanseamstress Have you had any problems with the dye seeping back out of the doll's body? Back when I used to customize My Little Ponies I had terrible problems any time that I dyed them with the dye leaking back out and staining my paint work. I've been hesitant to try dying dollies because of it.

 

I have two hujoos myself! One named FrostBite and another that still needs a name and a new faceup. It's so cool to see all of these creative designs!

 

@americanseamstress Thank you so, so much! That was a wealth of information! And you absolutely answered my question. It seems like my mistake was in the type of Rit that I used. But now I know exactly what to look for next time!



My Sara has her face. I have changed her lips since taking this photo. They're now a much paler pink that looks more natural.
Now comes the task of finding a nice wig for her.

@americanseamstress Thank you so much. I will definitely post more photos when she's finished. Or at least closer to being finished, depending on how long it takes me to find or make a wig for her. I might just slap a hat on her and snap a few more pics. LOL

 

Very cool Faceup style @SaelaVe

My nano freya got new glass eyes

I own a Freya currently and she's the cutest little thing. Sorry for not super great camera or lighting. Freya3 by flannelpaws, on Flickr

 

@Aliyahbetd and @flannelpaws Your Freyas are so cute!


@americanseamstress LOL Oh alright.


Can't Get Enough of This Girl by SaelaVe, on Flickr

I want to say that this is just a temporary wig, but she actually looks pretty darn good in it, so I dunno. lol


And my Chocolate Suve arrived today! So cute!


Dolly Mail! by SaelaVe, on Flickr

 

It is. It has double-jointed elbows and knees, femoral joints, and floating cups inside the shoulder joints. ...I think that those are the only changes between version 1 and version 2.
It's pretty nice, but a bit wobbily. It can be put into a lot of poses, but it doesn't want to hold any of them very well. Then again, I think mine might be strung kind of loosely, so that probably has a lot to do with it, too.

OMG I can so see that!
And thank you.

 

Got a quick question for Freya/Freyr owners. Has anyone tried to sand off the little tabs inside the neck joint of their head? They're very restrictive and make movement of the head difficult and wonky. I'm wondering if his head would move a lot smoother if I were to remove them... Or if it would cause some unforeseen problem with movement. :/

 

I thought I posted in here? I guess I didnt! My first bjd was a freya. I'm a bit clumsy so my thinking was "I'll get something that won't break if I drop it and if I can make it through a few months with nothing happening I'll get myself a resin doll!" Needless to say I have resin dolls now haha.
Anyway her name is Quintessa, Quin for short. I brought her to my dorm, here she is:
