I was just wondering if anyone else in here has these dolls? I've just recently ordered my first one from DOD (http://www.dreamofdoll.com/) and I can't wait till I hold him in my arms!
If you don't know what BJDs are here's a useful link (though everything is in english..):
Slacker Ninja:
Some are creeped out by how real they look, I don't blame them or you. I just think they are beautiful, and looking at them makes me want to be able touching them and take photos, sew clothing, buy things for them, make up their personality and background history and many other things.
English only? ... > slk ninj It's a tradition. You imagine a doll for a little girl. Perfectly no! I don't amaze if a doll costs over 1000000yen. too expensive! Japanese old dolls are not toys. art.
I have a Unoa Lusis I named her Izzy she was a birthday present from my friends

i make clothes for her and do the makeup myself so that makes my hobby less expensive
Rusty:
Woa! She's gorgeous! Unoa dolls are so pretty <3
I've never made a face-up before so i will have one made from DOD to see how it's supposed to look like. Then when my doll needs a new face-up I will make it myself or get help from other BJD owners in Denmark.
I've also begun sewing clothing for Riku as the prices are a bit too spicy.. $70-80 for a full set and $30-40 for a pair of jeans @_@ Crazy...
Rori-chan:
yes especially when the fabric is cheap and you dont need a lot of it.
thats why when i need money i make clothes for doll owners XD
im not sure if you know about this but I go to a online community called
http://www.denofangels.com/forums/index.php
they have people helping other doll owners learn how to paint the faces and give free sewing patterns
Yea, i'm a member there but haven't made any posts yet. At the moment I'm at the danish forum for BJDs. Looking at pictures of their dolls make me wish DOD had shipped mine already! I want my Ducan so badly, I even dream of him being with me
My newest sewing project is a kimono, I just need to find the right fabric(^-^
