Dollstown mini Discussion part 1

I finally painted my Merill. She waves helloes to every other Seolas out there!

 

Jane, a picture for you!



Merill is on 7 years old body. :3

..thank you all.......do have a love affair w/ white going on,,w/ the exception of one.

 

......thank you ...been very fortunate in finding just right outfits , face ups and wigs. If I had a dollar for every wig I tried and didn't work ...I'd be financially set.

* last white photo....promise(maybe)

I'll throw something in the thread!

 

Yay, Tessa is all grown up now! Her 7year body came today! And I'm happy to report that a dress made to fit the 14" Kish girls also fits the DT7 body. It's just a little shorter than it was on the Volks body. I also have Pie's 5yo body dressed and waiting for her. Soon, my 4 DT girls will be all set.

 

I bought the dress last Dec for Tessa when she was on the Volks body. It fit that body, it fit the 5year body (was more tea length), and it fits the 7yo body. I will be looking at my patterns for the 14" Kish girls with an eye for Arin and Seola, as well as for Ganga and Mini Elysia.

 

I decided to photograph Miette and Jean-Pierre together, finally! I've been trying to decide whether she was his rebellious little sister, or untamed young bride... I think they definitely have the chemistry of lovers rather than siblings, they are gorgeous together



And I just love, love, love her face-up

 

It was Eloise's turn today... I couldn't resist taking some more 'risque' photos of her, as the elf body is too beautiful to keep covered up! I've played around with turning a couple of them into 'French postcards'

You are so right alma, the elf body is too beautiful to keep covered up, on top of everything else, she has a great belly button! I had forgotten that you put your Seola (Eloise) on that body. She looks gorgeous. Love the french manicure, love what you've done with her.

 

Thank you for all your lovely comments about Eloise! I have more photos from the series still to edit! Jane - I agree with Theresa about the Elf body - it can work across a range of ages and styles, very flexible I put Eloise at about 16 I guess, but I'm not 100% sure! Shashy - the wig is from this talented lady - made to order and fits perfectly! Theresa - the blouse is from Alice's Collections, SD size. Its a bit big but fine when under her dress. It came with separate sleeves that were about 5cm too long, haha, so I gave those to my friend with a bigger girl

 

I love the Natrume wig, but it *is* HUUUUUGE, and took some taming, haha. I think it needs a doll with plenty of character to pull it off, perfect for DT girls Thought I'd throw in an unedited pic of Eloise, she is breaking my heart in this one with her dear little face!!

 

Help please! This is the third pair of eyes I've tried in Ganga - they have all been too big or too little. Can someone point me to the perfect pair for her?

 

My Eliana in the Garden today. 18mm Mystic eyes

 

And Emilia.

 

One more of the D Z dress. She feels like such a Lady.

 

Lovely to see photos of the girls Theresa
And lucky Emilia getting a beautiful dress from Dale Zentner..it fits like a dream (well it would wouldn't it as it was made for her body!)

I don't know what size eyes my Ganga Susie has bajib as she is wearing the eyes that came with her from DT

Susie





They look quite large and as they recommend 18mm on the DT site I am going to guess that, that is the size they are

 

....try color eyes w/ less contrast between the pupil and iris....more natural...pupil isn't the first thing you see.Adifferent positioning of the eyes...looking up or to the side

Shes wearing a wonderful creation by Lillilace , Her favorite "Sneaks" and her usual Attitude.

I finally got my tan Ganga from Dollstown. Just wanted to share her with you. Her name is Emmy.

She is the second Face up I have ever done - number one was Amy who came at the same time.
Thanks for looking.

 

Had trouble relatingto my first Mari,tried her w/Face ups by Kaye and Nemensia.....This one just works.
http://

 

Seola always juts her chin out when she has to wear a dress and Momo looks like she is ready to burst into tears. I guess I'd better let them get their jeans on....

 

Your girls are so pretty in their summer dresses bajib!

Here's a picture of Millie doing one of her favourite things - getting a close look at Lady Jane the rabbit. I'm not sure which one has crazier hair.


Millie got a big sister a couple of days ago, there are some picture here: [thread=449769]Millie and Georgia[/thread]

 

Here she is from her photo shoot before her trip home opal. I'm not sure about these eyes in her, they seem a little big. I really need more eyes! Although I think she will eventually have a lighter wig I loved her in this one. She should be home in just a few hours.

 

Opal - congrats on such a gorgeous girl

Eloise with her tiny twin Clarice... I think I'm going to have to have Clarice's face-up redone by the same artist, I loved the default at first but it looks pale and plain by comparison!!

My Seola..

 

With other eyes, and wig. What is beautiful?

 

Opal, I made the wig myself from Tibetan Lambskin (chocolate). This order in the brown has made some really pretty wigs. Here's another pic of Pie in it.


Thanks everyone for the nice comments.

 

I've spent a bit of time on Miette this weekend... I gave her a light body-blushing, which has taken the shine off the CH body and I'm getting to be much happier with it now. I also swapped out her blue eyes for some dark purple ones - they match her dress perfectly! I made her dress for the elf body, so it doesn't quite fit in the bust now and I'm going to modify it into a high-waisted skirt, and have ordered her a Zaoll size blouse from Dollmore. She also has a beautiful necklace on the way, so she is finally coming together



I think Jean-Pierre approves of her current look...

 

....SE Momo and Seola

Spacemachine...her eyes are 16mm

 

Hello ^__^ We would like to get acquainted.
This is my little cuuutie :з Her name is Berta and she's Seola on 7yo body ^^


p.s.: aaaw, all your dolls are sooo unreal perfect!! more photos, more photos, please!!

 

spacemachine I'm not sure if you found any photos of Seola with 16mm eyes, but here's one of my Seola in 16mm green eyes. Hope this helps

 

Miette got new eyes, a new wig and a new necklace...

Pie/Mini-Elysia and Tessa/Seola at the doll meet up yesterday. Pie is on the 5yo body and Tessa on the 7yo.

 

Opal your girls look very pretty and old-fashioned Are they both Nemesia's face-ups?

 

Thanks Alma! Yes, both girls are by Nemeisa.

 

Pie, Tessa and I say thank you for all the kind words. I need to get more/better pics of those two, and more pics of the other two that have DT face ups; Arin/Aine and Ganga/Suri. I lovelovelove my 4 girls. The outfit Pie is wearing is by the amazingly talented ATsuri from Poland. I love her sense of style. The dress Tessa is wearing is one I purchased on ebay that was made for a 14" Kish girl. I do have to note that the armholes seem to be a little tight on the 7yo body, but that's something I will take into consideration when I start sewing up some of the patterns I have.

 

....My DT Ganga,7yr body, has "Rag Doll "Syndrome. Can any body help...needs re-stringing....APPRECIATE ANY INPUT. Thanks

Emilia is trying out a different wig and both girls are enjoying a new little sister. I took some photos today and wanted to share.

I fall more and more in love with my Emilia (mini Elysia) every day, and Eliana is simply my first and sweetest girl and I never get tired of looking at her. I'm not sure yet about the brown wig on Emilia, jury still out.

 

Brown wig

 

Here are Meggie and Arin:


Meggie, my Leekeworld Leina on a Dollstown 5Year body, came back from getting a full body blush and facepup by Mich.

I've changed her eyes from the previous very intense blue for a gren I much prefer, but I'm not settling to her. I love the body (especially now she has had the blushing treatment from Mich - the hands are so adorable!) but fear I may have picked the wrong head for her. I prefer smiley sculpts and, although she looks far more smiley in the photos than she is in real life, I don't think shes smiley enough for me I'm at my limit of grumpy looking dolls with Arin (my 7Year boy) and my Kaye Wiggs Nettle.

I've been keeping her with me today as I've pottered around the house and worked on a rag doll in my sewing room, in the hopes we'll start to bond more.

And I didn't notice Arin's eyes had skewed again until after uploading the pictures (the top of the S-hook catches onto the stalks on the backs of the eyes when I move his head.... I must try to find a suitably sized ring to replace the hook)

Teddy

The dress was made for a 16" Ksh doll and is a pretty good fit, if a bit loose at the waist, the pinafore was for a Sasha Baby doll (I think it's a Boneka knockoff - it's the right style for Boneka but not up to their usual quality)

Teddy

 

my Seola:

 

BlueDollyKiss great to see another lad here.....he can keep Teddy's lad company
And I agree with opal Arin as a sculpt, is mostly sweet and serene


And I had help together from Susie (my Ganga) as I had a day sewing...


Helper by Little little mouse, on Flickr

It was such fun to have a DT helper around as I worked

 

I made some glow-in-the-dark -horns, Merill poses here to show them off.

 

I have finally learned how to post pictures. so here we go with my DT Momo painted by Jay Searle. She is paleskin. I need to take better pictures but this is all I have right now since I just got Flickr a coule of days ago and that was a long time coming and didn't come easy on how to post here. I have been feeling so guilty about not sharing pictures like the rest of you but ......

All girls are sooo sweet *___*

And here is Berta again (photos from Sunday walk):

 

Sweet!

Here's my Meggie in an alternative wig (which I much prefer her in...):


She and Arin are in the mess that is the current state of my sewing room.

I love seeing all your pictures.
A question for you with tan girls. My Ganga took a header off a castle I have in my garden and has some grey stuff (dirt or resin from the castle on her check and nose). I think I have to just take off her face up and try again but do you know if you can use a Mr. Clean on the tan resin or do you risk light spots. It would have been a great picture but she tumbled before I got the shot.

 

I know that is was used on the face-up of my paletan Arin by her face-up artist and I used it on the body to take away the shine and so that the head and body were a perfect match
On my doll there are no light spots

And I am sorry about the dolly tumble!

 

Xiaoli....have used Brush cleaner and Mr Clean sponges on my PT girls....no problem

 

Here's another photo of my little family. I'm smitten with all three.

Hope you like

I wanted to share a picture of my Momo as the young Marie Antoinette.

Thanks for looking.

 

Thanks for your comments before, Merill's story is made little by little as she reveals herself. Now she seems to be a creature from the dreams and follows my demon Draven around as she was told he was a great demon of some sort. I haven't really written things up, but some are in my head ready to be told. :3

Merill had a little photoshoot today.



Rest of the shoot here.

 

Wow~ so many little beauties here..... I love to see them all Congrats to all the new dollie owners......

Here's my Sia and Elysia today! they were trying different wigs, I think they don't like these as they look upset by it all....lols....

 

.......thanks,Giggy
* Xen - they look awsome buy a little pissed

Xen those wigs are gorgeous I wish I had hair that colour myself!!!!

My Lumedoll boy arrived today and the body has been firmly claimed by my AiL Elijah, so Eloise almost has her boyfriend - he just needs a face-up!



The Lumedoll body is gorgeous - it reminds me of the Elf body, slim and elegant, matches her so nicely! He *is* squeezed into some MSD clothes tho, I think somebody needs to feed the boy a hamburger
