Volks Dolls Party 24

Oct 29, 2010

    1. Spiralaqua: Would we really want Jackal to stop? xD And thank you!


      Personally for me it wasn't too bad- and that's with one thumb immobilized. Volks in general does a really good job proving tricks to get the outfit on. I didn't have to take her hands off either- which I'm sure would of made it even smoother. The hardest part was the shoes since the pearls connect with a very little s-hook/frog situation with not much room to work. But that might of mostly been my thumb getting in the way.

      That said I took mine out of it as soon as I had pictures! That whole outfit is made of material that would get damage and show damage very easily. Sadly I missed out on a less frilly outfit for her from Volks T_T so right now she's in her panties, stocking and shoes, and one of my boys dress shirts! lol
       
    2. Hip hip hooray!! After all these years of waiting, the time has finally come for Williams to arrive at my doorstep and thankfully, I was on the porch just as the delivery man arrived:sweat First off, I wanted to congratulate you essiekl on your beautiful new girl...her face is perfection and I must concur about that wig looking spot on! I took only a couple of pics of Williams today because it's raining cats and dogs but wanted to share at least one because I'm so excited, thankfully the rain wasn't pouring too close to us...there's no way I'm getting his lush gorgeous velvet coat wet!

    3. Oh Roweena! He is so gorgeous! Just look at those eyes! That hair.... that jacket...it's all good and yummy.:D
       
    4. Hey there luluna dearie and thank you!! His jacket really is SO luxurious (much more than I expected which is a nice suprise), his coppery hair is super silky compared to a lot of other wigs I have and so pretty and don't even get me started on those dreamy blue as the sea eyes his:blush :lol:
       
    5. Congratulations Roweena! Volks outfits are good at being nicer than expected~ I hope your Williams fit right in.


      I just realized that there is no Daria database!! Does any new Daria owners have suggestions?
      I was thinking Darling Daria or Dreaming of a Darling Daria or something? I'd be willing to set it up- but I didn't want to choose a name all the other Daria owners would cringe at >_>;;
       
    6. Roweena: Congrats to you on adding your new boy to your *already awesome* crew! I hope I'll be able to meet him in person one of these days!
       
    7. Thanks so very much Bird of Hermes and snowleopard!! I would love to see a Daria in person now especially after seeing owner pics...I'm not an owner but can't wait to see more photos of that beautiful girl in your thread once it gets started!

      snowleopard I will be sure to bring this new boy along the next time we meet!
       
    8. Ahhh so my Williams came today from KLDS but my mailman decided it was easier to not knock on my door and just leave a package pick up note gah @_@. So I'll be picking him up from the post office tomorrow on the bright side. Congrats to everyone else getting their lovelies home <3
       
    9. Aww, congratulations, Roweena! He is so gorgeous! And congrats to everyone else who got their dolls! I missed delivery of mine because I was at work. ;< I'm hoping they'll redeliver tomorrow!
       
    10. Congrats everyone! XDDD So many new arrivals... ^^
       
    11. I thought the exact same thing about his wig and coat -- really good quality. :D So glad you've got your boy home safe now!
       
    12. Essie your Daria is amazing. I think I have a new favorite SD 16 girl now. I love her lips and eyes.

      Roweena congrats on your boy finally arriving home. &#9829;
       
    13. Congratulations, Roweena23!!! He really is wonderful to look at ;)

      I'm sorry to those who missed their darlings and now have to trek it to the post office. I know that is what is going to happen with me.

      And congrats again, to those that have their darlings home, safe and sound.
       
    14. Ooh, my extra hands and musket have been shipped. More unnecessary resin weaponry in my house :sweat.
       
    15. Mine too!!! Yay!

      Congratulations Roweena23!!!! He is gorgeous ^.^
       
    16. I am still beyond bummed that if you purchased your Williams form a dealer, we could not purchase the extra hands :(
       
    17. MY Williams arrived today. Or rather I had to pick him up at the Post Office...and it was strange...only two cars in the lot and no line.:? Anyhow...got him home and played with him.

      He was still hung over from the voyage and says "Hi" to all his travel pals. :XD:
      And was still singing,"Yo ho ho and a Bottle of Rum"... right out of the box.
      ;)

      And Roweena you are right the clothes are so well made. I really like the shirt. It is very finely woven and lovely. :chocoberry
       
    18. Oh luluna that is SO GREAT you got your beautiful boy and what luck, hardly a line at the post office!! That's a really nice pic of him too looking oh so romantic and perhaps a tad whoozy from a little too much of the ol' rum though what are our officers of the Imperial Navy thinking hehe...well the journey was long! The clothes are really top notch for sure;) I can't wait for more photos:)

      edit: Aw thank you so very much timchener, Tsukidoll, Amoraseth, carmen171!!
       
    19. Daria has a very unique face! Love those lips!
       
    20. Horatio, my Williams was delivered yesterday! Much later than usual because the mail lady's truck broke down. *laughs* And can I just say... I hate the hot glue that Volks uses in their eyes! I spilled Mr. Color thinner all over my jeans and ruined them trying to get my boy's eyes out.

      But at least Horatio is free to change eyes now. XD

      Sorry for the crappy photo... we haven't had light in days. ;~;
      [​IMG]
       
    21. Woohoo... so many Williams all in one go! ^^ Love those photos!!!
       
    22. Congrats everyone! :D
       
    23. Am so happy to see all the new arrivals! Took new pics of Daria today and just want to share her beauty!

      [​IMG]

      Luv her default face-up and am going keep it for a long time.
       
    24. Congrats on more Williams and Daria! These photos are gorgeous!
       
    25. Really loving the owner pics of Daria. Am I strange for thinking she'd look really cute as a SD10 boy? I'm not usually one to turn girls into boys, but I see it with her XD.
       
    26. Ooh Timchener your Horatio is just GORGEOUS!! What a great photo and Jo77 your Daria IS indeed a beauty! Congrats
       
    27. Ahhh! I think we have the same mailman!!!!! O__O. Congrats on your new boy!!!!!
       
    28. Your not strange. I turn all the boys into girls lol &#9829; I still hope to make Shirou or Souji into a girl someday.
       
    29. If people want- I can take pictures of the Daria head on an SD10 boy, SDGr, and SD17 this weekend~
       
    30. That would actually be amazing, Bird of Hermes! Thank you so much for offering :D
       
    31. Wills and Nell are quite pleased to be together, aren't they?

      [​IMG]
       
    32. Oh! They look so fantastic together!!!! Congratulations. ^.^
       
    33. Congrats everyone on your beautiful dolls!!! Ahhh gorgeous Daria and Williams eye candies!!! 8D

      I got a notice my Williams was shipped today!!! yaaaaaay XD
       
    34. So many more lovely pictures :D

      So this Saturday, I had to work and I missed the FedEx delivery of Williams (oh nooooos :doh). But I asked FedEx if I can do a pick up for today. So, if all goes well, I will be able to pick him up today :o.
       
    35. Congratulations on the updated shipping notices! I'm excited for everyone!

      Here's another photo of Horatio to help usher in the new Williams:
      [​IMG]
       
    36. Congrats on the Williams and other doll arrivals. They look great! (Of course....LOL.)
       
    37. What an absolutely beautiful couple you've got invisibleWings and Timchener that pic you just posted is wallpaper or even poster material right there! Horatio is simply heartbreakingly handsome in every way!
       
    38. You are so darn sweet. X3 *mooshes you* I have to say, I am falling rather madly in love with his faceup. The way the artists painted the mouths... Love!
       
    39. He is so wonderfully dour and full of wangst, timchener! Look at that fluffy head XD
       
    40. *rolls* You don't know the half of it. XD
       
    41. I'm loving all the beautiful photos! And congrats to those who are on shipping and soon to get theirs.
       
    42. timchener Horatio is gorgeous....Gah, that boy must have some swagger!!!!! :sweat
       
    43. So my boy made it home (all in one piece, thank goodness). So thrilled to have him home! Please feel free to check out his box opening.

      [​IMG]

      The only thing that kills me is that his wig, once tried on, looked awful on him:doh I just hate that! I always seem to have this issue. So he is borrowing Aki's wig for the time being until I can make it over to Volks to try on some wigs. But Eli really is love :aheartbea
       
    44. timchener thanks for the uber handsome shot of Horatio <3

      Ahhh I'm supposed to get my Williams tomorrow!!! So excited XD
       
    45. carmen171 - Thank you so much! ;D Horatio's got something going on, that's for sure. XD

      AmoraSeth - Your new boy is gorgeous!

      april_san - Ahhh that's so exciting! I hope he arrives safely! Horatio will guard the east coast for trouble, in case anyone tries to make it your way and harm the passage of your Williams. ;D
       
    46. Congratulations to everyone who has received their dolls!! ^__^ They are all lovely!

      Look what washed up on my shore today!
      [​IMG]

      I'm so happy I ordered the musket because its so awesome!! I have yet to change his hand and make my Williams hold the musket!
       
    47. Yarr! What booty you have, matey!

      Wow, I love that gun hand. <3
       
    48. Aw Timchener *mooshes* to you too! Aren't those lips just TOO incredibly lush? Such an amazing job they've done with these boys, they are just SO perfect:O

      Amoraseth, that wig makes Williams look so darned sexy, what a total babe, congrats!

      Umi-chan, you are so lucky to have been able to buy that cool musket and hand and that really is the coolest trunk for holding all the treasures;)
       
    49. Thanks timchener! My Leo made it home safe thanks to Horatio's safeguarding =D I will have to post pics soon!!!
       
    50. Thank you timchener and Roweena23! I am very excited to have him home. I the wig is great, but I am not sure if I should go longer....I think long dark hair is smexy! Oh, what to do...

      Umi-chan - congrats, loving the musket!
       
    51. I also think long dark hair is smexy, plus I also got the musket plus two hands home on Friday. And put it to use right away on Fabian, who's the one with the SD17 body now. This is what my niece came home to on the computer chair . . .
      [​IMG]
      . . . to much hilarity. I rather wish either Williams or Reisner was a lefty, though!

      Oh, yeah, and for a brief while I was worried that the musket hand would be like the LUTS Abadon hand and not seem to actually work for its intended purpose, but once I figured out the angle the musket goes into the hand, it fits easily and perfectly into it. :aheartbea
       
    52. Timid...the musket hand looks great! And so does your boy holding it.
       
    53. Your Williams is awesome and the musket is awesome. I don't have any boy dolls yet, but Williams is the first one that I have really gravitated towards. He has a wonderful face. Congratulations!
       
    54. I got my hand and musket last week as well!!!! ^.^
       
    55. Thanks XD. And I'm glad other folks's muskets are arriving safely, too. The chest is so cute~

      Thanks :). Just to be clear, though, the lad in the picture is a Maki Tsuyoshi, although he has stolen the Williams body, and now hand and musket . . . :sweat

      Williams is really a special sculpt, though. It wouldn't surprise me if he could convince you to start collecting boys!

      ETA: Although my Williams took these eyes, originally ordered for Fabian, so maybe fair is fair?
      [​IMG]
      Until I can order him his own Mystics, he'll make do with these. His eyes are supposed to be hazel, but still, I do love matching hair and eyes . . .
       
    56. OMG!!! Those eyes with that hair are unbelievable. WOW!!!!!
       
    57. KYAA timid! Those eyes and hair!
       
    58. Great eyes and hair combo! Wow!
       
    59. Mercy! He looks smokin' with that eye...wig combo!
       
    60. Work that hair/eye combo! May I ask what eye size they are? 18 and 16mm were too large for my taste, and these look really nice!
