@Lei Xing awe I'm so glad you appreciate him ! I wish more people were able to see how beautiful Yder is ㅠㅡㅠ it's the only mold I've ever wanted multiples of!
Are we having a Yder party in here? (i should really take new pictures of the poor boy, let alone get his faceup done.)
We are here! And enjoying the Yder spam, though I sadly no longer own one. I offer you River instead!

Thank you! I've been a bit out of the hobby in recent years, but I'm really happy to see that DELFs are still popular.
I can relate. I've stayed in the hobby but not so much the community aspect. I remember "back in my day" delfs were everywhere. Everyone I knew had at least one, but obviously thats not the case now. Really a shame because they were beauties!
Oh noo!! We moved off the first page! I got 2 massive doll cabinets so here's my doll tax I've got Soony, El x3, and type 2 Lishe they're my babies and I love them so so much ;w;
MERRY CHRISTMAS 2025 ♡ by ❥ Emily Dawn, on Flickr Hope you all have a merry christmas from my girls to you ♡♡♡
I'm almost scared to jinx it but... after many years of searching (which is a shock to me, honestly, that it's taken so long) I may finally have found my Type 1 El. It isn't confirmed yet and he'll be coming to me from China, but fingers crossed! Based on the photo, he may be quite banana yellow so I'll see how much pan pastel magic I need to work to reverse it as I plan to hybrid him onto a different body and want him to be NS, but still! Finally! And I guess the Delf body may become a spare for my Breakaway because I feel guilt about the thoughts of splitting a Type 1 Delf
I hope that your Type 1 El has arrived, safe and sound! What a nice holiday present to give to yourself. Hopefully, this pic of Ethan, my WS El will show up on here. I'm never sure how to post pics from mobile, but, here it goes! Quick pic of Ethan Ryu
@Ryuichi Sakuma 13, here is a tutorial about how to post to DoA from Flickr. On mobile, you have to request the desktop site of Flickr, instead of using the app, but otherwise the steps are the same. Love to see more Els and Delfs! XD so nostalgic!
I'll be hosting a local meetup for Valentine's day, and I'm debating on taking one of my Delf with me. Its kind of a tossup between Tielo: Tielo closeup And Shuichi: Shuichi and his lollipop Hopefully these pics show up. I'm still figuring out how to post when I'm on my phone. Also, rn Shuichi fits the Valentine theme better. Come to think of it, I don't think poor Shuichi has been out ever since he got his faceup a while back. Ryu
Quick pics of Shuichi[/url] by Ryuichi Sakuma, on Flickr[/IMG] Oh wow, I somehow missed your post, @snowgray! Thank you for the tutorial, I'm going to try it out on a pic to see if I can do it properly. Honestly I prefer using the BBCode to post. Plus it gives me an excuse to post another Delf pic. Wish me luck. Edit: I don't see a "Request Desktop Website" choice on my Android's Flickr. Is it someplace specific? Edit 2: Never mind, I just opened a new Flickr tab on Duckduckgo and chose Desktop to see the BBCode. Quick pics of Shuichi by Ryuichi Sakuma, on Flickr Ryu
Thank you! This is what Shuichi's eyes from the anime look like, since this is who he is (Shindou Shuichi from Gravitation.) I love them! Shindo.Shuuichi heart eyes 1 by Ryuichi Sakuma, on Flickr I'm also going to change his outfit to fit the Valentine's Day theme, but to what, I'm not exactly sure yet. Oh, Shuichi is actually an Elf Chiwoo, and he came with archer hands as well as regular Chiwoo hands. Now If only I could find the archer set.... Ryu
I realized recently how long it had been since I posted proper photos of my Shiwoo Vamp, so I took some new photos of him this past weekend and posted to my insta. I really love this little guy and am so glad he’s been with me these past 17 years! He’s sooo darling in person, I wish people could meet him Spoiler: Close-up under cut
What a handsome man, and for 17 years, he looks great! I've only had Tielo for a little over ten years, but I love him to pieces. He's way overdue for a photoshoot, so I owe him one. I wish that your guy and Tielo could meet in person. If you're in Connecticut, I'm actually hosting a Valentine's Day meetup, head over to the Meetups part of the forum for details. Dreaming Vampire Shiwoo are super cute, aren't they, @Insane-Chan? Tielo relaxing by Ryuichi Sakuma, on Flickr Ryu
@Ryuichi Sakuma 13 thanks for sharing your Tielo! It often feels impossible to maintain the old BW CP’s, but they’re so so gorgeous. Aww, unfortunately I’m on the complete opposite coast in California :<
Old pic is old, and a little early, but I always liked this pic of Kairi. Valentine - Kairi by Thyme Willowbrook, on Flickr
@Stormlight Kairi looks so ethereal, love him! Welp, it has taken me a very long time to figure out how I wanted to do Sternauge's final merman tail, and its not quite the way I imagined it, but I'm still very pleased with how it turned out. It was my first time working with organza, and I had to layer it up in order for it to be thick enough to look like proper flukes. Now he really looks like how he should! Sternauge finally has his proper tail! by Ryuichi Sakuma, on Flickr Sternauge is a Dark Elf Soo on a boy body. Ryu
My El arrived!!! He is definitely a very yellow boy which makes sense for his age (like an '05 or so Type 1 El) and has a gorgeous faceup. I did also get another body to hybrid him onto and was planning to blush him to match, but his faceup is so pretty that I'll need to think hard about this plan. Here he is with Elias, his brother. I still need to get him a wig and change his eyes (if only my weak fingers could pry open his headcap, which is hooked onto the elastic as per the Type 1 delf mechanism DX)
New Double posting, but his body arrived! It's an aolingshi "62cm" (more like 64cm) body. I had shipped them both together from China via ocean cargo, but for some reason the body arrived days later. I actually may end up hunting down another El head because I really do like this faceup and don't think I can wipe it to repaint and color match He's pictured here with his nephew, another new arrival this week who is a Luts Cutie Delf and also made in 2005. I promise they both will have wigs and proper clothes at some point
New That body looks great proportionally! And his faceup is beautiful so I understand not wanting to wipe it. Congrats though!
New I think the proportions work really well too! But the hunt for El continues haha... I'll keep him on the body until I find another head I can faceup myself Thanks
New @Serraphym Congrats on the new arrivals! El is just a gorgeous sculpt, and I always need to argue with myself if I see him, as I have my tan boy Edward, and the overcrowding here means I have to be...circumspect. And a Cutie Delf! I was watching him too...so glad I get to see him here! I'd love to add a Cutie Delf to my gang again some day - I had Mary for a while but let her go about...must more than 15 years ago! And you hardly ever see them come up any more...
New Thank you! And a Tan El - wow! I'd always wanted one of the Tan Delfs but they really are rarities. Cutie Delfs are so cute and I am absolutely enamored. I think I may need to keep an eye out for Cory as well in the future. Hope you're able to find one too. Thanks; I also think the body looks really good with El's bigger head! It's in their NS, which they describe as close to Switch Powder Beige. It is a bit lighter than the Cerberus Project NS (both my old Delf and Feeple dolls) but is a beautiful color
New I realized I never posted by two Delfs that got a makeover this year (a new face-ups to be had but clothes and wigs etc!). Here are my siblings: El and Breakaway 08.
New Please do! I love Harang. I have one who is in the works of getting a body and a face-up...the whole shibang. lol
