    1. Indeed but wouldn't it be easier if it was lol. Once the casting mold is finally silicone it will be easy peasy to whip up the little heads. *yays*
      Thank you I will note it ^_^

      I don't know how I managed to miss this thread :) Gorgeous work!!! *happy dance*

      Echo is looking gorgeous - do you have any idea how much you'll be selling them for? I'd love to have a lil elf boy! And I am sooo LOVING those lil horns on the first page - will you be selling those as optional parts too? *hopeful look*

    5. intricate designs would be for the best, but references are ok too, I don't need patterns, I can usually look at something and be able to bring it to life ^_^

      ^_^ nods feel free

      thank you so much I'm so happy that you like *him* lol I'm selling the basic sets at $250 (which will come with eyes, wig, and underwear).
      Faceups will be an additional $35
      However, I MIGHT make the horns part of the set if I have plenty of people who want them. Oh yes and he will come in white skin or normal skin.
      The fullsets are going to be a bit more since they are limited to 2 of each kind, and with full regalia, including shoes... (which I will be handmaking)

    6. *Ok, you just missed me screaming (all in a good way, I promise). Oooh, depending on how the "fullsets" look (I can't design clothes to save my life), I'd love to try and snag one of the elf boys if they're not all spoken for!! Definitely put me down at least for a basic set (plus the horns if I can convince you to make me some, regardless of what other ppl want! *loves her horny boys - that just does NOT sound right, but you know what I mean! :sweat), which might turn into a full one *lol* And omg? SHOES?! How on EARTH do you make SHOES! *grins*

      I guess I'm just awed at the creative talent other people have - yes, I can thread a needle, but I can't sew a straight line! >.<

      [edit - I feel like an idiot now! :sweat Angels are the sexless bods for those who're like me and can't read *duh me!* :lol:]

    8. LOL Shoes... are difficult which is why I am only making them for the full sets.... two sets are boots... which are most difficult to make... :sweat:sweat:sweat
      I can't wait to get Echo all faced-up , which regrettably won't be for another two days since it takes 16 hours for this silicone I got to be completely cured. I also got my hand on another kind of resin, so I'm going to see what that turns out like. I'm experimenting with different kinds of resins...

    16. Ish! And I thought waiting the 8 hours for my silicone to cure was EVIL... 16 hours??? Wow... Which type did you end up getting so I know NOT to do that.. I'm just sooo not a patient person, and I CAN'T wait for Echo to be face-upped! :love Did I mention I'm not patient? ;)

      Oh yes, when you said you were doing one in the "honey" skin color - can you relate that to another co's resin tone. All my boys are varying shades of the NS, and I was just curious to see what Echo would be toned like ;) I'm way too curious by half!

    17. kisaki_kun - When Bella asked me to take pictures of them, the one I specifically asked for was a "Honey" "Normal Skin" one (though I'll get to see all of them eventually). I have dolls from varying companies, save for Luts, and I have a friend who has a Luts doll, so, even before you get to see the "Honey" skintone in person, I'd be glad to post up a comparison, just to help you out. :)

      I got TinSil 70-25, Honey skintone is close to luts resin, although a tiny bit peachier...or rosier. :D

    21. Hi again! Questions for Bella!

      1. Is the girl body much different from the boy and angel body?
      2. Is the design contest still running? (has some better sketches)
      3. My little girl is almost ready for casting. I know she's not as sweet as Echo, but might you be interested in a trade? Of course I am willing to pay money as well since Echo is so much larger than Gloxinia.

    22. Yay I love to answer questions :?don't know why but I do.
      As for Answers;):
      1.The bodies are all basically the same, except for the lower torso that has it's variances, but in the future I might make a more muscular sculpt for the boy body.

      2.Yes the design contest is still running, and ends October 15th, I will decide on the winners October 16th.

      3. I'd love to do a partial trade I love Gloxinia her sculpt is so incredibly adorable. I can't wait to see what she looks like in resin! I'll add you to the list of those who want Echo's (secret list XD)

    24. *nods* armour is amazing ^_^.

      Update: Well I just got the coolest mistake out of this. I accidentally put too much urethane in the mixture and the head came out all glowy looking! (It was supposed to be a normal skin head but it looks so awesome!!!!) I couldn't resist so I gave her a quick faceup.
      Here is a picture:

    27. I'm not quite sure what the difference between french resin and regular resin is. But I like the effect. It makes her look very ephemeral. Now that I think about it, I'm in conflict over whether I would want an ephemeral Echo or a sun-kissed (normal skin) Echo. Makes me feel very*_*, :doh, and:...( in that order. :aheartbea

      BTW and totally OT, I posted a few questions on my thread. As someone with more experience than me... could you umm...:sorry... maybe take a peek at them?:sweat

    54. Another Q about the limited basic sets - is that 30 of EACH type *girl/boy/angel* or 30 total, regardless? *is having a fun finance month - NOT* I'm hoping I can still scrounge for my boy, but don't want to commit and have my car taken away by repo! *tho it's better than losing the house!!*

      I sense myself asking for mad overtime at work >.<

    55. 30 in total regardless of skintone or gender. If I can take the load of 30 I might be able to take more but those will have some differences and they will be release in december as Christmas Elves.

      EDIT: I'll be posting up pictures of the full doll with clothes, wig and eyes tomorrow, I have to drill out the pieces and string them.
