Long shot here, but would anyone mind lending me Giorria's measurement from her bust joint to her ankle? Thanks
I don't have my Giorria anymore but I wanted to share the work I did on her for her new owner! Faceup Samples by SmoteyMote, on Flickr
I got a shipping notice today for the Deilf I ordered last November. Oh gosh, I haven't ordered a wig. There's a 4-5 in my stash--hope it works!
OMG really?! I haven't gotten one yet but i'm so glad they're finally being shipped! edit: i didn't get an email but i checked the site and it shows tracking! yay!
@JellysFancy - I've checked tracking twice now (last night and this morning) and it still says Pre-Shipment. Looks like they didn't take anything to the Post Office at the end of the day.
It's been a week since I got my shipping notice and the Post Office is still waiting for the shipper to hand over the package. Why do companies do that? If they're not ready to ship they shouldn't send notices. Sorry, just needed to vent. I want my little Deilf!
Mine took about a week to actually end up at the post office - it's now actually on its way... Hopefully it will get here before I go on holidays.
Sometimes I wonder if shopkeepers read our posts. I no sooner vented than my Deilf shipped. Estimated delivery is Saturday, but I'll believe it when I see it. Tracking hasn't updated since the package left Seattle--and I'm clear at the other end of the country.
Out for delivery! Little Deilf arrived this afternoon. She's as cute as the dickens but I didn't get a chance to take photos. I don't have a wig that fits: I have some size 3 that are too small, while 4-5 is just a bit too big. I'm guessing size 4 will work. Or, I'll have to make a wig. I wanted to paint a few scales on her tail but it's been raining off and on all day so that will have to wait. I'll have to make her some tops to wear--she's so tiny! Above the waist she's smaller around than my RealPukis.
The deilf has been recasted Someone either ordered one from Jpop and sent it to be recasted or a recaster itself bought one during the preorder. If you see Deilfs that have the particular Jpop waist (it was different from previous Deilf sold by Le Tama) but not with the Jpop proposed colors, watch out ! If you have any doubt on a doll, you should contact Le Tama I think.
Me, too. Unfortunately, as long as people buy recasts, recasters will continue to steal and sell the work of legitimate artists.
Let's hope they at least find the culprit among the buyers ! Edit: apparently it's a former employee of the casting factory that is the thief : see here
Looking for some advice - I have been looking for a wig for my Mermaid Deilf and the first one I purchased which should have been the right size was too small. Does anyone know of any particular makers that make wigs that are the right size for a Mermaid Deilf?
@TeaPartyRevolution it depends on which kind of wig you’re looking for. I made a wig for my Deilfs, but I only know how to work with mohair and wool. If you’re looking for alpaca or something similar, maybe you could try and send your head to someone? Here’s my new girl, Paoly, with the wig I made for her:
@Sendell - Preferably mohair considering she's so small. I wouldn't trust my ability to make one myself.
I made my girl a new wig and top. The braid is looser than I intended. Deilf's body is so small I couldn't hold her between my knees while I braided the hair. The fiber is Lion Brand Homespun acrylic yarn. The color is called Waterfall.
Finally got around to painting my Giorria! I still want to give her custom eyes and wig at some point, but this works for now.
My Giorria arrived last week! I'm so excited. I believe her eyes were lost in the mail though. My best friend is going to do her faceup in the new year. Here she is looking rather hollow with my SmD, Argent.
I wanted to finally share a picture of my Penelope in her winter outfit! Penelope in the snow by Kaede - faery kiss, on Flickr I love seeing all your pictures!
So I finally have a not-so-fantasy coloured Giorria coming (still stuck in postage), and was wondering what you guys have found that fits Giorria's?
Bratz kids clothes, and some Lil’ Bratz clothes fit well (skirts, dresses and tops, no pants haha). I’m lucky i’ve had a ton of them/similar small clothes for those dolls lying around since i was a kid though. i’m sure you could find some stuff second hand, or any kind of doll that’s that small (i think barbie kelly? idk, it’s been a long time!) but those often trend towards more childish looking outfits, vs something like what the sales pics on the site look like. I haven’t tried really making any patterns for her outside of quick no pattern dresses, so I can’t speak to sewing! Her booty gives me the most trouble but if you can get it over her feet and over her hips you’re golden, which is why the dresses and skirts from old bratz work great. Do you plan on trying to sew for her?
Thanks for that, it gives me a really good starting point! I do sew (mostly for 1/8), so I can probably alter some of my pattern to fit, thankfully XD
IMG_20200831_115646_180 by Lilly Cullen, on Flickr She's finally here! And oh my, she's so much tinier then I imagined! Still haven't go the hang of standing or sitting her yet :S
thank you!! The small version I don't think, she's been around for a while now and I'm preparing a bigger version of her, 30cm, with a different body that will be easier to dress lol
