I don’t think our little niche thread will survive the autism happening outside

The usual autism or did something happen?

[Anonymous No.]

>>31101847
Jesus christ I see the problem, posting risque doll photos to help keep this bumped I guess. Why would the mods do this? I don't disagree that the Vtubers need more than a general apiece given how big the topic is, but they don't need 500 threads, either.

[Anonymous No.]

I might let the thread die off for a bit until the vtubers chill out. I apologize to anyone inconvenienced if that does happen, though. Hopefully the vtubers will get their own board at some point.

Guys is smoke bad for dolls? What the fuck do I do.

[Anonymous No.]

>>31104226
I'd personally try to smoke away from them to make sure they don't pick up an odors or anything of that nature. I'm not sure if anything will happen, of course, but it's better to be safe than sorry with vinyl.

Do you think boxing them will be enough?

[Anonymous No.]

>>31104451
Maybe if you store them low? Smoke rises, and if there's ventilation it might be okay. If he's hotboxing though I'd get them out of the immediate area. Sorry anon.

Good luck anon! Look around the secondhand markets- mandarake and mercari, ebay and yahoo japan auctions, and the #bjdsales tag on instagram. Vinyl dolls are a lot harder to bootleg compared to plastic/resin ones, so it's less worrisome to shop for DDs compared to other dolls. I never thought I would be able to afford a doll when I first joined this hobby, and now I have several! You'll get there one day, too. Be sure to come back and show us when that day comes, anon!

What non-limited shop sells good heat-resistant wigs for MDDs/DDs? Do you have any good experiences? (Missantroop, Penguin workshop and Ronshuka Couture are always either sold out in the colors I want or sell out too fast)
I'm searching for a grey, long, natural shiny wig that I can style into slightly curled inwards hair-ends and hime-bangs. A bit like pic related but longer.

From the start. They were always a vehicle for Danny's ego, so it was always going to be wrong.

There's no artistic passion or vision behind them and it shows.
>>31117176
Lighting setup. You can either buy lights or manipulate regular ones, but either way it's about how the light strikes them. The one is backlit, so there's either a softbox or a sheet or something behind the setup to keep the light from being harsh.

If you look for stuff for action figures you might be able to find them. The Dollfie Project has some guns as well, if I recall.

>>31144756
I honestly feel for all of you that have to hide your interests. I get it though- shit as it is to say, it was... fortunate for me personally that my mother passed away. Free from her influence, my father's a lot more easy-going and understanding. No one should be ashamed of this hobby.

[Anonymous No.]

>>31144915
guns arent hard to find, i remember Action Mans being around the same size but the cloth quality was poor

I think this is the first Dollfie Dream I've ever seen with freckles??? It's cute, but I almost feel like the translucency/randomness/soft-edgedness of them is getting into uncanny valley, like the resin BJD people who do the realistic skin texturing.

[Anonymous No.]

>>31159750
One of mine has them. Body blushing (freckles on the body) eventually wear off as you change clothes and stuff, but I really adore them on the face.

[Anonymous No.]

>>31144685
From what I understand, a lot of the props and gear are hand made with 3d printers

The freckles are super cute. I wonder if there's a way to try it out non permanently so I can switch on whim

[Anonymous No.]

>>31161587
If you seal the doll's face with MSC, you can apply freckles without sealing them and wipe them off again if you change your mind.

It's okay I guess but I personally don't like any of the dolls by doll chateau.

[Anonymous No.]

>>31176878
I know there's the big one, but there's drama attached (but then, it's also fucking huge, so it's to be expected.) There's a Doll Dreaming one I've heard of, as well. I'm sure there's lots of smaller ones around, though I haven't run across them.

I've considered making one as a backup resource for information just in case, but I'm not too fmailiar with that sort of thing, and community management is a pain. On the other hand, at least I won't have to bump the thread every few hours because of the vtubers.

Discord is generally pretty unpopular here because people feel it will detract from the relevant board or breed drama, too, so it may not be the best place to ask.

What kind of drama? I've never even heard of any bjd servers before. Though I am new to the community so there's that.

>>31181042
She's beautiful anon, welcome to the hobby!

>>31181973
Oh, just the usual you see with any big community. So-and-so did this, said that, has the other thing, things like that. I haven't heard of anything major going down. Some people don't like one of the mods of the Doll Dreaming server, others are very defensive about certain brands (Smart Doll people are notorious for this.) A hobby-old collector passed away recently, and there was some complaining about how her dolls were treated by the new owners (trashing what the original owner did with them and whatnot.) Nothing really scandalous in the grand scheme of things that I've seen, except maybe one company posting an opinion on the Hong Kong protests, and the ever-present arguments between people who buy bootleg dolls and people who condemn them. It's usually petty and individual stuff that you can generally stay out of, at least in my experience -- that kind of went into a summary of the hobby as a whole, and less about the individual server. I am not personally. involved there, unfortunately.
