And if you paint your own face-ups, that's more difficult with this size. Thank goodness Iplehouse does such lovely face-ups, so I don't have to try.<br /><br />I like that proverb. :)balljointedwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01335507007679704323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-6249263341010734662016-11-22T17:56:55.471-05:002016-11-22T17:56:55.471-05:00Haha, I remember a proverb about waiting long enou...Haha, I remember a proverb about waiting long enough to grow a beard...<br />I like their size and love them in pictures, and I was tempted by some, but somehow the tiny eyes and heads are not my bonding-material. I can imagine that it's the other way round when you start collecting with that size.ResinRapturehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15691864206775424671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-45807785162780191892016-11-22T17:34:27.086-05:002016-11-22T17:34:27.086-05:00Thanks Mia!

I don't think I'll get Leonard with a beard--assuming they offer it--the wait is just too excruciating.<br /><br />If Iplehouse had opened the FID line years ago, the bigger dolls (and even the JIDs) never would have tempted me. I came to BJDs from collecting vinyl fashion dolls, so I already had that size and aesthetic ingrained in me.balljointedwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01335507007679704323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-20242333536644531182016-11-22T17:07:40.548-05:002016-11-22T17:07:40.548-05:00Congrats!

Miho looking beautiful, too, but I think he and Lucy make the cuter couple. I am sort of glad that fashion doll size is not for me - money tree not found yet. But I like looking at them.ResinRapturehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15691864206775424671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-35257533848155575202016-11-22T10:52:10.236-05:002016-11-22T10:52:10.236-05:00Thanks Fishcake!

[sigh, drool, grabby hands] I wish they'd hurry up and post the photos. I think the new ones go on sale Dec. 1st.<br /><br />I know it's hard to take the first step towards a new size, but once you commit to it it's full speed ahead. FID Bianca would be a great addition to your crew. Do it.balljointedwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01335507007679704323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-43757236978607122892016-11-21T19:04:35.608-05:002016-11-21T19:04:35.608-05:00I think Iplehouse made him with you in mind--he is...I think Iplehouse made him with you in mind--he is absolutely perfect for those Raccoon girls! And a small Bianca sounds pretty tempting to me (I need to resist a new size though :D) Congratulations on such a perfect guy!Fishcakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04129239011581997070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-57073767836070487802016-11-21T09:40:52.888-05:002016-11-21T09:40:52.888-05:00Thanks Fantasywoods!

Except for the height, the others look like children next to him.<br /><br />It wouldn't take a lot of work for Soom to produce Mini SuperGems. They already have the Idealian51 body, which is almost the same size as FID. All they would need to do is shrink the head sculpts, although fantasy parts might complicate matters.<br /><br />Iplehouse charges $5 extra for the face-up with beard, which is very reasonable considering the work involved. I wouldn't do it for five times that amount! Like you I struggle to draw eyebrow hairs. Not to mention lower eyelashes.<br /><br />If I can justify spending the money, I may order both Claude and Leonard. Much as I would like to get Stella, too, buying men for my existing Raccoon girls takes precedence. Lucky girls!balljointedwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01335507007679704323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-20162448311045177832016-11-20T21:17:15.297-05:002016-11-20T21:17:15.297-05:00Oh money tree, where are you indeed!!!

Claude is one of my first loves from iplehouse so if I were you I would order him :D<br />I wish SOOM did this with their supergem dolls, they would make me so happy <br /><br />Congrats on the handsome arrival!! So glad you can own him now, in a much fitting size for you. He is just so manly, love the beard, do they charge extra for it? I'm curious about that, it seems to be such a hard work!! I struggle doing a few hairs on the eyebrows, I wouldn't even dare trying a beard.<br />Hope to see more of him soon, and I hope you can get another doll from this line soon~Fantasywoodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18073223338797438798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-43717760420958488742016-11-20T19:59:05.411-05:002016-11-20T19:59:05.411-05:00Thanks Musume!

It may be a few days before I can do that because gray skies and snow make it too dark indoors for photos. There are a few inches of snow on the ground already, and more is forecast for the next three days. I'm not ready for this--I haven't even bought snow tires for my new car!balljointedwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01335507007679704323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-91573026878407825332016-11-20T16:09:47.774-05:002016-11-20T16:09:47.774-05:00Nice to see you joining the #proBjdArtists day!
A...Nice to see you joining the #proBjdArtists day!<br /><br />And congrats on FID Lawrence, he is so handsome!! The faceup is so stunning I love it!! May I request a photo of him near your Withdoll girls? I would love to see that comparison, if it is not too much trouble :DMusumehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11618279915398182364noreply@blogger.com
