i LOVE her! by Cbnloo5, on Flickr

I havent photographed Annie is such a long time! I prefer to photograph her outside.
I love all of the girls in here! Its hard not to dream of more, particularly a Hannah!

[Sortilege]

Jane, thank you so much for pointing out something which I've often wondered about and that's the cut-out space in the back of the legs. I guess I never figured it out, because most of my girls either stand are sit in chairs and it never occurred to me that there was a reason for the design! You learn something new every day...Thanks!

Lovely, lovely girls everyone!

Woooo! I just went and ordered the last Hamilton sister :D

I didn't have to wait for the pre-order at DT for the Elf body, as I first thought.
Oriental skin was in stock, and if all goes well she will come home in 3 weeks (about 4 months earlier than expected!)
She will be Sia on the Elf body, and her name is Grace.
I'm so excited.. soon I will have to take a new family portrait :D

Sarah (Sadie), Victoria and Emma:

[skyeyze]

I can't wait to see the new addition to your adorable family zozo!!

[zozolala]

Thank you, skyeyze! I still can't believe she will be coming home so soon! :D

[Jane]

Woooo! I just went and ordered the last Hamilton sister

I think I have followed you around on all the boards Zozo but each time I have read this news I have broken out into a HUGE grin!!!
I really am so pleased for you!!!

And I am so looking forward to seeing another Sia.......I only really know of Scarlett Empress's Millie and Mo's one.
It is a sculpt that is hardly ever seen

[zozolala]

*laughs* Jane, you are so sweet! :D Thank you for being excited with me!
Grace's eyes came in today, and it makes it a little more real. In a few days she'll be flying home, and I so hope that Customs will be kind..

I went to look at your friend's Sia, Millie on Flickr earlier today, and she is so adorable, full of mischief! I have a slight suspicion that my Grace might be the rebel of the family, too.

[cbnloo5]

Zozo your doll family is very wonderful to see! I am in awe of them! Your rooms and toys and clothes are incredible, a true joy!

[Calphedoll]

Everyone's girls are so pretty. Here's a picture of a couple of my girls.

[Jane]

Calphedoll I would love to hear how you are getting on with the tan resin .....I am very tempted to have a tan DT doll one day.

Are there 'rub' marks around the area of the joints?

[zozolala]

cbnloo5: What a lovely compliment, thank you so much! I love to dress my girls and to decorate their rooms - I enjoy the challenge to find things that would more or less fit in their era :) It's a very slow process, but that adds to the fun.


Calphedoll: What adorable girls you have! Did you make their dresses? They are so cute.

I was thinking of ordering a Deogi on a 7yr body the next preorder, but I can't decide between freshskin and orientalskin. Does anyone have any opinions one way or the other?

I prefer oriental skin - but that's because I don't like the paler skintones.

[Jane]

DancingBee both freshskin and orientalskin are beautiful resin colours, and I have both

[DancingBee]

Thank you! I don't mind the paler skintones. I like it more on the pinker side than the yellow though. Jane, can you direct me to any of your photos that show them together. Pretty please.

[Jane]

Jane, can you direct me to any of your photos that show them together. Pretty please.

I don't really have any clear photos side by side to show resin colour clearly.......and there is no point in me taking one, as my freshskin Seola7 is very badly yellowed.
I bought her knowing she was like this.

But here is a photo of my girls......Seola7 freshskin, Ganga oriental colour resin.



Freshskin is on the left and the oriental resin on the right which has a more pink tone to it.

[opal]

4 of my girls are freshskin, and it's lovely. I did have a boy in orientalskin and he looked sunkissed beside the freshskin girls. Either color is really nice.

[skyeyze]

I have both Fresh skin and Oriental skin. Both very pretty.

[DancingBee]

Thanks!!! Your girls are so sweet!! So oriental skin is more on the pink side than the fresh skin? Yeah, I probably couldn't go wrong either way.

[Jane]

........... I probably couldn't go wrong either way.

That sums it up perfectly!
