Favorite/Least favorite parts of the hobby?

Personally my favourite part is turning my ocs into something physical! I've always drawn my ocs, but theres something different about seeing your ocs in person, and being able to pose them and photograph them!

My least favourite parts are similar to what others here have said; staining, lack of space and scalping. 😭

My favorite part is probably the clothes. I've been lucky to get my hands on a couple of Volks sets and they're stunning. I love the quality and the details. The dolls are almost secondary at this point.  My resin girls are basically fashion models to show them off. 

My least favorite part is the cost. Not just the upfront cost, but how every little thing adds up and accidental damages can get so expensive. I only have a head so far, but I had to find one with a faceup since I don't have the skills for it/not willing to send it out to an artist. I'm terrified of damaging it because it would get so expensive to fix. Either in failed attempts and art supplies or an upfront faceup cost.
