Isa has an overdress now, I am still working on the underskirt and corset..and the wig. The wig still has a tendency to want to slide backwards off her head. I really like that Dollshe body, it's a shame they are so expensive! Maybe I can hit one of Mr. Dollshe's sales some time.
And here is the Ashanti I promised pix of--she needs her own wig, her face up finished (it got cold suddenly and I need to spray seal what I have) and restrung to be a little tighter. I also need to get one of her elbow pieces out of the upper arm, it seems to be stuck. Otherwise I am so happy with her--I never know with Iplehouse dolls if I am going to like a sculpt until I have it in hand, and this is a good one. Lots of expressions possible with different angles :D
Update--I found a tool to unstick the elbow piece:
And now, restrung, a different wig, and able to fully pose both arms!
I mercilessly masking tape under all my doll's wigs, but you could try putting some thin elastic through some loops maybe on the wig cap? That last picture looks so cute. I always like people's photos better than the company ones at IPH.
ReplyDeleteElastic is such a good idea--I dunno why it didn't occur to me to put some in there, because it would be relatively easy to stitch it on. And that would help tremendously!
DeleteI like photos at home too--you can see what the doll really looks like, I think! Ashanti looks grumpy at Iplehouse, but she really isn't :D
