OtakuDepot Posted May 26, 2011 (edited) Tuesday evening I got home to find a post office slip that they were unable to deliver a package from Volks, and a signature was required. Early the next morning I picked her up but didn't have time to unpack her so she had to wait till after work. That was a mistake. I was worthless at work - only thinking about what waited for me at home. Thankfully she was in perfect condition and seemed in good spirits despite having to spend a few more hours in the shipping box. Her outfit is really beautiful and detailed, I really love it. I do have to say it's easily the most difficult outfit I've had to put on one of my girls, not counting Lilys armor set. That outfit is almost like a workout. The tricks are you have to get the pieces on in a specific order or else it won't look just right. It also has a number of pieces that have those small metal hooks that grab onto a tiny hole made by thread. Not very easy for my big meaty paws! From what I can see her outfit is well made and has almost only has white fabric touching her skin. Even her shoes are white on the inside. The only part that I see with a dark color touching her skin is the collar of her coat/shirt thing. She was even in such a good mood after getting dressed up she did a little dance!!! I tried to get some close up shots of her eyes but she was a little shy: She's meet the other girls and is getting along with them fine. Most were getting ready for bed by this time but they insisted we make another family photo. Silly girls.... Poor Neris was a little worried about her sister Airy. I let her know she took the "slow boat" from Japan and will be showing up around July. She was concerned till I let her know all the fun she's having on her cruise. I think she's a little jealous of her now. **James Edited May 26, 2011 by Guest Otaku Depot's growing family. “Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.” ― Terry Pratchett, Jingo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I let her know she was very cute in her outfit and that it had an almost "gypsy" feel to it and she liked that.

OtakuDepot Posted May 26, 2011 Thanks everyone. I really love her default outfit, I think she looks great in it. I just need to do some more work on her wig. And I agree with Mitsuki, that last family photo is AWESOME! Just look at the great girls there.... and where DID you get those cool PJ's? haha - I have you and Anne to thank for them. I need to do some DD clothes organizing as I can't find one of the pairs of PJs I got them. I know it's somewhere though.

jadepixel Posted May 27, 2011 Congrats! Looks like Neris is joining a dollfie slumber party That's nice to know about the outfit and lining on the boots. I was a bit worried about the collar but so far no one has complained of stains from it, there's just a bit of griping about the wig. It's rather hard to manage, it seems. jadepixel doll lab jadepixel eye shop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OtakuDepot Posted May 31, 2011 Thanks everyone. I'm really loving her face sculpt the more I see it. So far, no stains from her neck piece so that's good. I'm also finding I'm keeping her in her default outfit a little longer than normal - since it was a bit of a pain to put on. I did the same with Lily. I managed to get some more PJs from Billy's friend Ann so all my girls have a pair now - I'm going to have to make a good sleepover PJ shoot soon. hehe Otaku Depot's growing family. “Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.” ― Terry Pratchett, Jingo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OtakuDepot Posted June 5, 2011 I ordered her too Congrats Bellatrix! She's really a beauty. I'm almost ashamed to say I haven't changed her out of her default outfit yet. She's so cute in it. It's also a bit of a pain to put on so I want to really soak in how she looks before I take it off and undo all that work.
