Purple! :D She is very lovely. Yay, I gets hug from thy doll. *hug*

I want a professional grade camera, too, but getting a new laptop and car comes first. As soon as I get around to buying a new camera, I want to sell prints. Want a macro lens.

Gotta do a 2-D collage for design class, was thinking of doing a crazy quilt style cloak for Arnorr and embellish it with silk ribbon embroidery. Have a trip I am taking on Saturday to D.C., so there would be plenty of time to work on it. What do ya'll think?

Saria Florite - He looks like an Abio Angel, not sure which one, though. I can't tell if the body is, cause I can't remember what the hands look like on the newer body. XD; I wish they had a website that worked good. @[email protected] He is cute, though!

AlbaRosaria - I love purple. Thank you. x3 Careful, his hands wander. |D;

I need to get a professional grade camera, or at least one a heck of a lot better than what I have now. I'm majoring in photography, so I kinda need it. ...probably not the best choice of a major, but oh well. XD

Ooh, that sounds neat! If you do it, please take pictures. 8D


Curious, what is everone's dream doll? XD
Mine is Dollshe Husky, who is, sadly, discontinued. He was discontinued, maybe, a month before I convinced my mom that BJDs are super awesome and worth the money. >; I still want to get one someday, even though they are a pain to find second hand. *wants Dollshe to bring him back*

AlbaRosaria 03-24-2010 07:31 PM

Hmm... I'd absolutely kill for a SOOM Heliot. He is definitely my dream doll. Damn limiteds.

Aw, Dollshe Huskies always have such awesome character to them...

I'm a double major, currently studio art and theater technology. Might change and go into costuming. :D I love photography. We art kids are awesome. XD

lmao, his hands wander? How often does he get slapped for that? And purple is a gorgeous color.

I will if I do it. Gotta figure out which fabrics and ribbons. Will have to do the sewing parts of it by sewing machine, not hand sew.

Sanoko 03-24-2010 11:55 PM

Alba: True those things do come first if you really need them. I want to sell prints too I think it's a nice way to make a little extra money.

I got my new camera today! I've been practicing using it while just taking pictures of things around the house. I'll start taking pictures of my boy soon since I think I've got the hang of it now.

That does sound cool!

Lupus: I'm not sure what my dream doll is. I got the one I really wanted that I knew I could get. I guess my dream doll would be a limited from Soom cause I do really want one of those. I want a Chrom- Bane of Wood or at least his special feet cause it would probably be a nice touch to my twins characters. They are wolf demons so the feet would be nice to have along with a tail and ears to go with it. Ok so my dream doll would be a Sphaler or an Amber. Both from Soom.

LupusDarkmoon 03-25-2010 12:27 AM

AlbaRosaria - Heliot is so pretty. One of my friends was able to get the R. Head in a split and let me paint him. Definitely a gorgeous sculpt. <3

That is so true. I'd love to get one someday, will probably have to shell out $1000+, but it'd be so worth it to me. XD;

Oho, very nice. We are definitely awesome. ;D

I don't think he gets slapped for it, often. Most people like it. |D;

Awesome. |D I wish I could sew. I altered a paid of pants my mom made, for a SD boy, for my Zaoll, and that was a pain. XD;

Sanoko - All very nice choices. They're all gorgeous. And, I can pretty much guarantee that you won't be disappointed in a Soom MD. They are so cool. XD

Sanoko 03-25-2010 12:33 AM

I'd also like a Cuprit, lol. Yeah they are all so gorgeous. I'll probably never be able to get one, but that will be ok it might actually be a good thing, lol. I already want up to 10 dolls. Yeah I'm sure I wouldn't be disappointed in a Soom MD.

What is another good thing to put around a barbie or baby brush instead of paper clay to make it like Alba was talking about?

LupusDarkmoon 03-25-2010 04:04 AM

That's true, they all are really pretty. I would love a Sard. ;; And the the little fox babies to be released. So cute. DX
Haha, you never know. Soom does do layaway. That how I got my Amber. |D

Hm, you could probably use a number of things. Air dry clay, Apoxie, craft paper, probably some other stuff.

Sanoko 03-25-2010 05:22 AM

True I may be able to get a future one. I won't be able to get the ones I mentioned unless someone wants to sell it, but then most of the time it will be higher than what it cost them.

Alright thanks.

AlbaRosaria 03-25-2010 02:20 PM

I was showing a friend the B&G elf dolls and I didn't know they released a limited... GAH! He is so lovely! Nailo Elf He has gone straight up my wishlist right to number two and extremely close to Heilot in favorites. With a female body, he would make a perfect Sapphira! >.< An elf obsession? Why, yes!

:D YAY! What kind of camera did you get?

I am lucky in the sewing department... I suck at sewing (currently), but I have a bunch of friends that have been around sewing all their lives. One friend's family has been in the tailoring business for generations and she has offered to help out with clothes for Arnorr and the eventual female. Right now, she wants to use some lace I brought with me to maybe make him a lace corset.

lmao. So your boy is quite the popular guy, eh, Lupus? ;) (And everytime I see your name, I think: 'It's not lupus...' )

Sard is gorgeous. Have seem very lovely pictures of him on DA. I have only ever heard positive things about Soom's MDs.

She got one of the Heliot heads? Lucky! So jealous. >.< Does she have a DA so I can drool from afar at it? lol

Saria Florite 03-25-2010 03:12 PM

O_O
HE'S GORGEOUS!
If I didn't order my ringdoll I would of ordered him <3

AlbaRosaria 03-25-2010 03:37 PM

I'd order him right away and just have him in drag until getting a female body if I had the money. >.< (Which would mean Arnorr would have a guy for a wife for a while if I could get him ... )

Sanoko 03-25-2010 06:13 PM

I got a Nikon D3000. I can't take good pictures of my boy because there isn't enough natural light and all of that for it. The flash just messes it up. It's raining outside so I can't go outside to take them.

LupusDarkmoon 03-25-2010 07:42 PM

AlbaRosaria - Aha, oh yes. ;D Of course, I can't resist a man who sings and moves like that. |D

I've heard about a few parts not being drilled thoroughly, but Soom always replaces or fixes them. They're a pretty good company, despite the super long wait times. They are getting better, though.

She doesn't use her dA anymore. >: But, she is letting me hold him hostage until she gets a body for him. |D
Here are some pics~ 1 | 2 | 3
He's purple themed, too. XD

I wish I had a body he'd fit on, so I could take more pictures of him. DX

Rusalka 03-25-2010 11:45 PM

Geh, I made the mistake of looking through Soom.. :XP I want Beccia :drool:

Sanoko 03-26-2010 12:27 AM

I tried taking photos using my doll today though you only really get to his hands in them.

Rusalka 03-26-2010 12:50 AM

Well that's no fun! Were they good hand shots at least?

I need a camera.. probably going to get them with the vacation pay I'm getting soon.

Sanoko 03-26-2010 12:55 AM

I guess they were. I don't know. I uploaded them to my DA.

Rusalka 03-26-2010 01:07 AM

The look good. I'm no expert on photography but they look like great ones.

Sanoko 03-26-2010 01:15 AM

Alright thanks! I need to learn how to do better though.

Rusalka 03-26-2010 01:18 AM

You learn with practice. :yes:

Sanoko 03-26-2010 03:04 AM

Yeah that's true, but I also need tips and tutorials so I can practice using those. But if I don't get faster internet I can't do that because I can't view them right now.

Rusalka 03-26-2010 05:22 AM

aw that sucks. Sorry I can't say much on tips.. I've not yet had the chance to try and fail on my own. lol

AlbaRosaria 03-30-2010 10:57 PM

Tips... Macro or the right lense is god when getting close ups. >.> And the histogram helps a bit, too. :D

Stuck on campus for three hours after my class has ended. Lovely. This sucks royally. BUT!!!! My friend is creating clothes for Arnorr. :D And she is designing her own outfit for him, so he shall be pretty, pretty in linen, lace and silk. The Rosa is happy.

Rusalka 03-31-2010 12:05 AM

I just found a gorgeous dress that would fit an MSD.. too bad I don't have one on order yet. xD
May sell to friend who's char she made a doll has fallen in love with it. xD

AlbaRosaria 04-01-2010 05:21 PM

XD What kind o' dress is it?

My friend now has decided that she is going to make multiple outfits for Arnorr! YAY! And she is going to try to style his old cruddy wig that is balding. So far, there are four planned. I'm gonna have to make him a closet. On a funnier note: One of the people she lives with came down the stairs yelling about a small person being in her room and insisted it was a real person, not a doll. He practically had a heart attack.
