BlueFairy (Tiny Fairy) discussion Part 8

[Shannon M.]

Thank you for all your compliments, everyone! All of your dolls are gorgeous as always <3

Anya and Harley seem quite content looking like each other, as opposed to how I intended for them to look. They are the most hard to predict dolls ever, I swear.

[hobbywhelmed]

Anya and Harley look so cute. Should I start getting worried that Olive is suddenly starting to look very appealing to me?

Pete - the girl Kyle is a medium flesh-tone. But there are also two boys - one white and one in a still-very pale normal (and he's from 2007!) - who started out as a default blond and went brunette this year--

Argghhhhh I can not get Paygate to work for my Marine and my payment keeps getting rejected ;;_;; Any advice here? I wish I had just picked PP but my PP email is different from my email I actually check on a regular basis.

As xaya says, contact them. I had this same problem. I ended up contacting them on both the Q&A board and through email. They told me to try the Private Payment button on the bottom left (under the Limited button) or use their PayPal addy.. and don't forget to include the order number with your payment.

Catherine Stewart: lovely face-up, but is that a boy or a girl? ^^

Pete, thank you )) this face-up was made by Bluefairy and her name is Eva )

[Shannon M.]

My mother let me play with her camera. Since we're still all hyped up for the new baked release, here's Eden!

[~A*K~]

I joined Instagram today, so I had to start with my Somang.

[Pete]

Shannon M.: funny how some dolls just have their own opinion on what they want to wear, right? x'D Though your girls look lovely! And Eden is just spectacular with her bright blue eyes against her darker skintone.
hobbywhelmed: whoa, how did you keep your BF so pale? My Tommy has started to seriously turn, although I have the feeling he's getting... more saturated than yellow, actually O_o Luckily his head from 2010 matches his 2008 body very well. But your Kyles look beautiful ~
Catherine Stewart: oops, my bad! She is a gorgeous girl and I love her name.
~A*K~: lovely shot!

Popping in to spread a lil Denis love...

Goodness, I have such trouble keeping up with this thread! Everyone's dolls are so gorgeous! And I was just on the Bluefairy site looking at pictures of Marine Kyle and May. I hope we'll get to see lots of photos of them here, too, when they arrive with their new owners!

So, I'm having a little delayed trouble bonding with my Olive, Thessaly. I love her but I have trouble feeling... connected with her. Does that make any sense to anyone? I don't want to sell her but I just don't have that much enthusiasm for her either? I'm thinking maybe a new faceup and wig and clothes, a full make-over as it were, might help me. I tried putting eyelashes on her and getting her a new wig like her old one (only nicer), and that has helped some, so I am hopeful.



It's not that I don't think she's beautiful. I don't know what it is. I love her big eyes and her cute little lips and everything. Hopefully a makeover will help, otherwise I'm not sure what I'll do!

Hello thread, long time no see!
I bought this dress from Cadenza few weeks ago, and it finally got here today.
Leica seems to like it very much


Now for a random question... She is a new doll and someone told me that the newer batches of resin seem to be whiter than the old ones. Like A LOT whiter... Anyway, I was having trouble taking photos because it turns so white on my camera. Just wondering how you guys manage?

she's adorable ^--^

The more recent normal skin dolls are significantly lighter than the older normal skin dolls.

Older pic, but you can see the drastic difference in colour between Kurenai and Natsume there. At this point, I'm used to it and used to have a bigger prob with Natsume blowing out the whites in pics because his over all colouring and clothes tend to be lighter than Kurenai's.



Leica is really pretty, though. I love her dress. I can't wait to get my own Niky girl. Ugh, maybe a month left on the WS wait?

[Shannon M.]

Anya looks more boyish as time passes. I'm wondering if she's trying to tell me something. Bigger boobs, maybe?

Katou_Kei, you have the sassiest Niky! And considering how sassy Niky naturally is...

angelcallie, Harley was giving me the same issue until I did a wig and eye swap. I'm sure Thess is just one of those who has a bit of trouble communicating who she really is. <3

[turbow]

Guyssss!! I've missed you all!
Didn't know that the new thread had started. No wonder why there's no notifications at all = ="
And already many adorable spams! <3

Miu wanna say "hello" (even though her face doesn't say so LOL).

Oh I understand totally!
I found my Baked Olive so difficult to really love so I sent her away for a new face-up....it made all the difference for me.
Could you enhance the face-up your pretty Olive already has yourself?
Blue Fairy face-ups are very pale and delicate......

[Peppermintsheep]

angelcallie, I had the same problem with my first doll--- a Jerome I bought in 2005! @_@ He wasn't an impulse buy so much as I saved up my money and bought a doll to fit in with friends, so I didn't know what to do with him. He just slept in his box for a good long time while I fretted over my noncommittal attitude towards him. It took until just last year (2011) to find the "right" wig for him, and I'm waiting on the "right" eyes and the "right" clothes from two GOs at the mo.

Err, not that my advice is "leave your doll in a box for 5-6 years", but a very roundabout way of saying "Sometimes these little things are very shy and sneaky and it takes a while before they look like who they are supposed to look like!!!" I hope the makeover helps!

Just remember: nothing in this hobby is instantaneous! It can take a while before your doll is "complete".

To everyone else: gorgeous pictures!! Someday, I will manage to contribute. @u@

Ooo, she's very pretty. I love the wig and eyes. Is that a BF wig and where did you get those eyes?

[Jane]

I only pulled out part of your advice but it all was brilliant!!!
So much good advice there ((hugs))

And buying a doll to fit in with friends, or buying one after seeing seeing somebody else's wonderful photos .....have it arrive and then not know what to do with it!
Yes I have done that before

angelcallie don't give up just yet ....says she who did give up on her WS Jasmine and sold her on!

[effa]

Such a lovely spam everyone!! Always nice too look here. I don't think other threads has so much lovely doll photos^^

I have to agree with Pepparmintsheep, that it can take a while before you bond with your doll Angelcallie.Hope you'll find the way to her, but if not...don't feel guilty, maybe it's just not THAT girl... there are plenty other molds that might catch your eye and heart. Either way... GOOD LUCK

I don't have problems with binding with my Olive I think she's adorable, I will probably change her make up with time, but that have to wait till I'm sure how I want her to look like.

[angelcallie]

Thank you, everyone, for your advice on Thessaly. It's given me lots of hope that there is still a future for me and this little girl! I'm just going to try a bunch of things on her, get her some new clothes and probably eventually get her faceup redone and I think we'll get somewhere. Unfortunately, I have no skill whatsoever with faceup type things, so I'll probably have to send her out, but that's all right. I'm sure we'll get talking to each other before too long! It probably has something to do with the fact that she was an impulse buy. Olive wasn't at the top of my to-buy list, but when I saw her on the MP I just jumped at the chance without really having any plans or forethought or anything like that. But I do love her, so I'm not giving up yet!

In other news, here is Finnegan, my Tommy boy, who I have never had a moment's trouble bonding with.
