Volks YoSD and YoTenshi Discussion part 6

Feb 21, 2013

    1. That's so sweet. <3 And it looks like Mogi is taking care of your annual tradition & keeping brother's memory.

      How cute he is in those pumpkin-orange sneakers, too. :3 Where did his sneakers come from? I think Nava might like orange ones....
       
    2. [MENTION=6370]JennyNemesis[/MENTION]. I honestly don't remember right now where his shoes came from. I'm fairly sure it was an ebay shop. If I remember the name I will let everyone know!
       
    3. Just got my Suzuna all dressed up for the cold weather coming this weekend... She took me to the window and was like "and the snow is... where?" If we get enough snow tomorrow, I'm taking this little ball of sass out and getting her picture in it.

    4. I made my girl a dress inspired by "Frozen" as she's addicted to it!
      [​IMG]
       
    5. loooove the frozen dress!!
      [MENTION=6370]JennyNemesis[/MENTION] the shoes are baby cons from releaserain on ebay. when i looked they only had two metalic colors though :(
       
    6. Aww thanks! Now my Lin decided she wanted the "Anna" dress since she's a red head since i had no plans to make these i'm wondering where it will end if my Littlefee's see them!
      [​IMG]
       
    7. That's OK, thanks! - Releaserain sells things that you can get from a million other ebay sellers too, so I'm sure I can dig up the orange ones (if they're in the cards for Nava ;)).

      He likes his combat boots just fine, but now that he has an orange shirt, I think I want to find him matching shoes. I'm sure he cares about matching less than I do. ^^

      [​IMG]
       
    8. JennyNemesis I remember seeing ones with skull prints (basic "yosd sneakers" search ;))!
       
    9. I am asking this question for a friend who is planning to let her Volks YoSD to have a pair of YoTenshi wings.
      How do you attach the YoTenshi wings on the YoSD body?
       
    10. The YoTenshi body has magnets already in the body, otherwise you can tape (with a tape that's kind to resin) some small magnets to the body in the position you want them, put on clothes and then attach the wings on top of the clothes. Sorry it's not a good explanation, but I hope it helps somewhat :)
       
    11. Thanks for your help,Motiko :)
       
    12. No problem :)
       
    13. First time posting on here! Jenny, I just did a search on ebay and Releaserain has the knee-high orange sneakers so you should be able to find the hi-tops or lo-tops there :D

      And I'll just leave this here. Kasumi (Chika) spam~

      [​IMG]
       
    14. Mayonaka, Kasumi is very cute :)

      Naoto was grumpy today because of the lack of attention given to him lately. He got even more frustrated when I found his crazy hair funny :lol:

      [​IMG]"Hey, I'm being serious here!" by Motiko, on Flickr

      This little guy is the best to tease :aheartbea

      I also need to free his eyes from the hot glue, just haven't felt like it :sweat
       
    15. Naoto is so serious! :chibi: What a cutie. I like his wispy red hair, too.

      Did I already ask you where his t-shirt came from? A nice plain black t-shirt like that is something everyone should have.

      I like Chika, she's so snarky-looking. :whee:

      Knee-high sneakers? Heehee, I can't imagine knee-high shoes on these stumpy little Yo legs. ^^ But if they have different lengths that is great. I will check them out, thanks!
       
    16. Haha, he is indeed! :aheartbea
      Don't remember if you did, but it's made by me (actually the only dolly sewing I've completed yet :sweat)
      Ah yes, black t-shirts is pretty much how I get through the weeks myself, so I totally agree!
       
    17. I put Koko, my Rinon, on a Tenshi body so she could wear wings.

      [​IMG]
       
    18. Very nice, I love her outfit!
       
    19. Motiko: Thank you! I love her so much!
      JennyNemesis: Oh, I know right? Love how snarky she can be in pics! And I wasn't really suggesting the knee-high ones (though, I'd almost want to see a girl with them on); More like since they had them in orange, they might have them in different lengths. Also noticed that the dollmore ebay might have some. :D
       
    20. Actually I think knee-high sneakers might look pretty badass-- Isao has extra long legs for a Yo, so maybe he could rock it. I have the feeling this little guy is going to be the death of my storage-space.

      Chika and Kakeru together are like 10 gallons of snark in a 5-gallon bucket. :whee:
       
    21. The image quality isn't very good, but here's some drive-by spam of my Ayumu, Yuuya, with his new friends:

      [​IMG]
       
    22. Aww, spindlewood, he is so cute! He looks happy surrounded by his friends. <3
       
    23. He just might rock it! And I just love the Chika/Kakeru mold! After I buy either Ayumu or a friend's Puff, he's definitely on my list!
       
    24. CathyM, Koko is really cool! :aheartbea
      Spindlewood, as always, Yuuya is super cute :)

      Sharing this pic for two purposes:
      1. As you can see knee-high shoes works well for the longer Isao legs :)
      2. My little YoTenshi Yayoi arrived today! She's in need of a new faceup and a bit of a cleaning, but she is soo adorable! :aheartbea
      Also, a previous owner has separated her toes for some reason, I think it's kinda cute :)

      [​IMG]New little one in house! by Motiko, on Flickr
       
    25. Spindlewood, what a cutie!

      Motiko, your dolls are so cute. I often separate the toes on my larger dolls, but I've never done that to one of my Yos.
       
    26. Man, everyone's Yos are so cute and making me want more than just my Chika!
       
    27. *keekeekeekee* Oh I forgot that Naoto's default outfit came with tall superhero-boots! So the look does work on long-legged-stumpy-guy. :fangirl: He is so effing cute.
       
    28. Heehee, thanks! :)

      I'm sorry for spamming this dude recently, but I'm just so glad he's still as dear to me as the day he arrived :aheartbea

      I freed two of my dolls from their hot glued eyes yesterday, and I swapped Naoto's out for the ones my Yayoi came with.
      They're a little larger and darker, and I think they make him look even cuter!
      [​IMG]
      (Never mind the big dude, I just put them both in the same pic)
       
    29. Its getting chilly here now so the girls had to wrap up warm for their dogs walk..
      [​IMG]
       
    30. Your girls look like they're having a ball!
       
    31. hehe yeah thanks!
      i forgot to say in my last post but that's a really cute picture spindlewood!
       
    32. [MENTION=43469]Motiko[/MENTION] - Ahh Your little Yo's are super cute! Can't seem to get enough of Naoto-kun lol He has such a stern, pouty face I just want to give him a hug :hug:

      [MENTION=1248]angeldoll[/MENTION] - Your photo of your two girls make me miss winter. They look really cozy and content ^^

      [MENTION=8584]spindlewood[/MENTION] - Love the expression on Yuuya's face. He doesn't look like he wants to share his new pals with anyone :lol: :aheartbea

      Here's a photo of my Kakeru, Rowan :sweat

      [​IMG]


      Unfortunately, I couldn't bring him with me when I moved for work, but if you are interested, he blogged about his travels in Japan when I was studying abroad. This particular entry was of him complaining about Girl's Day, and being scared of Hina dolls and my host sister...
       
    33. Heehee, thank you Sakuri! :aheartbea
      Good thing for him he's not a real little boy - he'd be teased to no end! (and yes, hugged a lot as well...)

      Rowan is so adorable! :whee:
      Good thing at least the little Kuma-chan could agree with him on the craziness ;)
       
    34. Gyaaah, I love Rowan! :whee: I fall in love with every Kakeru I meet, and he is no exception. Kakeru is the Prince of Snarky. And so so cute. I came dangerously close to adopting one once. Oh is it hard to say No to these Yo-boys.

      I love his outfit-- I will assume it's Volks? It almost looks like AnotherSpace, has that same desert-industrial look to it.
       
    35. Jenny, pretty sure that's his default outfit. And Rowan is too adorable!
       
    36. It's not his "default" outfit as most regular release version Yos (as in not themed or belonging to a story arc) only come with a wig. It seems to be a common misconception that they come with the clothes they're pictured with, when really the clothes are sold separately at the event :)
      But yes, that is the cute outfit Kakeru was dressed in for official pictures :)
       
    37. I do remember that outfit from photos, now you mention it. It'd be nice if Volks offered more regular Yo-boy outfits like that. But I have to say, their usual selections of frills and costumes does mean I save a lot of money not-shoping for Nava. ^^

      Also fortunately, I love Nava's default outfit beyond all words. :fangirl:

      [​IMG]
       
    38. Rinon finally got her cute Kitty outfit back from the Little Fee who "borrowed" it before she ever got a chance to wear it. I love this on her!

      [​IMG]

    39. Aw, that outfit is perfect for her, sweetiemom! She's just so cute in it!

      Adding my Yo spam in~

      [​IMG]
       
    40. @Motiko, [MENTION=6370]JennyNemesis[/MENTION], [MENTION=6078]Mayonaka[/MENTION] - Thank you :D Rowan is indeed a snarky, adventurous little boy who loves camera time a little too much. And yes! I wish Volks would release more casual clothes for Yo-boys, although TTYA and Nine9 Style seem to have some great outfits I'll likely splurge on one day... I must've been out of the BJD loop for quite a while, but where did AnotherSpace go? I can't seem to find their website anywhere anymore. :(

      Btw JennyNemesis - your Isao-kun, Nava, has a great default outfit ;) I'm a fan of SD13 Isao's 2nd release, and even more so of the chibified version - though Thack would never let me get him in either form. Ha. He's as green-eyed as he is green-eyed.

      @sweetiermom - Rinon!! :daisy The kitty outfit does suit her ^^

      @lolita - spam away!! Now I want to get some kind of jammies for my two little rugrats...

      And here's a sneak peak of my newest girl, Aysel! Will have twins in the house this Christmas & New Year's when we see Rowan again :aheartbea Hopefully I'll get around to posting her box-opening later this weekend. It's been a long rough week for me, so it'll be something to look forward to :)

      [​IMG]
       
    41. Oh Sakuri, congrats!! Gosh, she's so darling! :D
      Look at that sweet, pouty face!
      Whee, I'm really looking forward to seeing more of her! :aheartbea
       
    42. Yay! Another Chika! Congrats on receiving her, Sakuri! Can't wait to see more of her!
       
    43. @Motiko & [MENTION=6078]Mayonaka[/MENTION] - Thank you!! I've just posted here box opening here!

      [MENTION=57263]Mylene[/MENTION] - Congrats! :D I know exactly what you mean. I feel like half the time, new additions aren't planned. Lol After I got my grail SD13 Tsukasa, I swore he would be my one and only... Well, hey, that MSD Hewitt is just SOOOO cute *oath derailed*

       
    44. Thank you and congrats too ! Aysel is so cute, even with the combo green eyes + blond wig (It's my favorite one). ^^
      (And I love the way your dress her !).

      Finally, if I look my doll family, the only ones who stay are the ones who aren't planned. XDD
       
    45. Aysel is way too cute! I can't wait to see her with Rowan! (I might explode from the cuteness)

      It's funny; my doll family is almost never planned but I always end up finding a character for them during the waiting process lol
       
    46. Mylene, congrats on getting the little sweetie :)

      Sakuri, aww little Aysel is so cute! :)

      Hahah, I find Yos are especially good at nestling their way in despite not being planned (...and then planting the thought of getting more of them :sweat)

      Ugh, I wish the temperature would go up for just one day so I could paint my poor little Yayoi who's been blank for two weeks now (I just couldn't stand that faceup she had). I would like to bring her with me over the holidays but it seems it won't be possible like this :pout:
       
    47. @Mylene - Thank you!! I like the default combo too, but the blonde wig is so temperatmental ^^;

      @Mayonaka - Me too, can't wait! My dad's a good sport, and is bringing Rowan in his carry on with him to Taiwan for the holidays. Then I'm bringing the twins home with me! Lots of pictures then :) And yes, the waiting period gives just enough time and anticipation to kick your imagination into gear.

      @Motiko - Thanks! Hope you can paint Yayoi's faceup before you leave for the holidays.. :( Hope the weather warms a little - we'll be seeing photos of her once her new faceup is done, right? :wiggle
       
    48. Thanks Sakuri, it looks like I may get a chance two days before leaving, according to the weather forecast :lol:
      And of course I'll try to get some pics! :)
       
    49. Managed to give my Yayoi her faceup today! It's my second faceup ever (and first on a tiny), but I'm really pleased with how it came out :D
      Meet Mika :aheartbea
      [​IMG]New faceup for Mika! by Motiko, on Flickr
      (and as always, please excuse the crappiness of the photo :sweat)
       
    50. Great job on her faceup, Motiko! She looks adorable! :D
       
    51. Thank you Mayonaka! I'll have to redo it sometime, but for now it's mostly a matter of getting her the right wig and eyes (and some new clothes of course ;))
       
    52. New clothes, of course. lol!

      My girls needs clothes so bad D:
       
    53. @Mayonaka - She looks beautiful! You did a fantastic job on her faceup. Very sweet :) And hope to see her with new clothes once you get them for her!

      [​IMG]

      Here are the twins reunited here in Taiwan! Aysel's not too happy that Rowan took the gray Hitomiya eyes, but I think green might be better for her. She'll have her own Hitomiya pair once we get back, so hopefully she'll stop pouting then.

      Hoping I can visit Cotindoll shop in Taipei before I leave. :( This vacation is way too short... Anyway, Hoping I can get some new boy clothes for Rowan from TTYA or Nine9style when I get back to the US >_<;; I haven't shopped for him in almost 5 years!
       
    54. Thank you Sakuri! I'll just assume you meant me :lol:
      The twins are sooo cute together, I'm glad you'll have them both with you now! :whee:

      Wanted to share a pic I took of Mika the other day. I made this bench in eighth grade for a school assignment, long before I had any BJDs.
      It's at my parents' place but my mom offered to bring it next time she visits. I haven't made up my mind yet, but I think it works surprisingly well for Yos :)
