Hello, thank you for letting me join.

    1. Hello, my name is Patrick I am 41, I have been in this hobby for about four years now, and have aquired 18 dolls split between Smart doll and Volks Dollfie Dreams. I love the scale quailty of the clothing and props for them as well as the customizability. I found out about this group from a chat on a facebook group. I am looking foward to interacting with you and maybe meeting some of you at cons or any meet up groups. Photos of my dolls can be found on my instagram. https://www.instagram.com/pmbsakura37/

    2. Hi Patrick! Welcome to the forums! I checked out your instagram link and you've got some lovely dolls and figures! Though I don't have any Volks or Smartdolls (I have different bjd brands), I do enjoy looking at them and yours are a real treat to see. :D

      I hope you enjoy checking out the forums and what it has to offer in terms of tips, fun photo-stories, comparison shots and more. I'm looking forward to seeing you around the forums! And potentially going to doll meets eventually too!
       
    3. Hello and welcome!

      I'm glad new people are still finding DOA - it is such a great place to learn and enjoy communicating with other bjd aficionados!

      Thank you for the link to your Instagram account - you have some very cool photos (and your props are especially amazing - the car and motorcycle are so neat!).

      I hope you will enjoy exploring the forum. There are places to post about photography, sewing, accessory-making, etc. There is even a section for off-topic dolls and discussions (It is called "Brigadoon"). The mods are very nice, too, if you need any help.
       
    4. Hello and welcome! I joined the hobby around the pandemic and amassed a lot of dolls. i actually haven't counted, but I know i bought too much. I know I have more than 20. I sold off some, so it is starting to decrease to make space. They are mostly 50 to 75 cm, so i do need to sell enough to have space to display them. We might be moving again, so displaying them will have to wait. One day I would like to share photos of my dolls. Your photos are lovely. I personally don't collect smart dolls or dolfie dreams, but i enjoy looking at the dolls. Thank you for the link.

      Did you read the Doa rules? It's good to start reading the rules. What Facebook group are you in? I would like to maybe join. I dislike Facebook, but recently went back to it due to bjds.

    5. Thanks! I knew about doa before Facebook groups. I haven't used Facebook in years and I never liked the idea of people sharing their faces online. Well I guess instagram is like that, but more easier to use. I came across doa by chance.
