    2. Yay, I’m so pleased that there’s a place to chat about Boudi now! I got mine last week and I’m really smitten by her. :D

      Here’s a link to her box opening; /threads/unboxing-boudi-from-boudi-doll.812448/

      I’m looking forward to seeing other people’s girls too.

      Okay haha finally got it to upload!

      I put her little heeled foot on the left to give her a sweet pin up sort of pose. I was so excited she was able to balance. I imagine that if I could suede her joints at some point she might even be able to do a bit more, but I've never done that before so I'm a bit nervous!!!

    10. Thank you! :)

      She’s such a great poser! My girl is wearing the high heel feet and the heeled shoes from Shapeways and she is standing really solidly.

    11. I'm SO happy to hear that! I need to put more shoes up on Shapeways!!

      I just uploaded my newest custom Boudi: Persephone from Lore Olympus! I love this character so much, I couldn't resist!!!

    12. @jemmilly May I ask, is your Boudi in tan? I'm planning to reward myself for a job well done with a tan boudi but I'm debating what type of tan.
       
    13. I hope it's okay if I answer, yes she has a tan! :)

    15. That makes me so happy you like her :) I can't even tell you how much that means!!
       
    16. @iamibo I just believe in supporting artists whenever possible! Plus dolls of colour PLUS curves. It's my jam, fam.

    18. I just saw a banner ad on DOA for these dolls! I had never heard of them before, but WOW! I love that they come in ebony black resin. So gorgeous! So far I haven't tracked one down with a faceup :o Does anyone have one?

    19. @Anneke thank you so much for the kind words!!!!

      Above @jemmilly has a really nice face up from Eludys in a comment!
       
    20. She's so special, I absolutely love her!

      I'm hoping to see more faceups on that super dark ebony black resin. I looked up your Insta for some of the sample ones but was hoping to see more owners photos of that dark resin :D
       
    21. Someone got a nice face up from Vitta Vera and I have my own on my instagram. :) the ebony is best with very little paint.

    22. @iamibo I'm curious to see faceups with Boudi smiling more widely...I hope to get her for a very perky character and I want to see her smiling cheekily. Do you have mockups of different faceups? Particularly on the darker resins?

    23. I haven’t tried that and I love it! I will try a mock up today and post!

      Edit:

      Super quick mockups to show a slightly different expression. I hope this helps? Also if you have reference I could help mock that up!!

    24. @iamibo That's fantastic! The reference is super old because I'm super old (teenage Sari Sumdac from Transformers: Animated). I can't wait to become solvent!

    25. I love it!! I mocked in a tiny bit of white to give the illusion of teeth but you could also mod a bit to give her a real open mouth! And then if you really wanna go crazy I bet dimples on one side would be killer for a cute cheery smile!!! Can’t wait to see what you do!

    26. I ordered my girl yesterday! She is my first ball-jointed doll and I can't wait to get her. I'll definitely share pictures here when she's all customized.

    27. Hey all! I just got a Boudi Doll. She's gorgeous! Any ideas for clothing fit?

    28. Weirdly I've found some Glitter Girls clothes work if you're looking for inexpensive and quick Amazon options! Balljointedsoulmates used to have a Boudi and a lot of her MSD size stretchy things are pretty on Boudi.
