So I saw that there is going to be a Soom free choice event! Amber is included in the list! Thus, I decided to purchase some Coquina parts from the Den of Angels marketplace to use.

Yes! I finally got my hands on this limited edition head! Here are the details: Company: Soom; The Gem Sculpt: Black Fog Elves - Turb/Roxen Resin Color: Grey I am not a fan of Soom's MSD bodies, so I only wanted the head. I will be purchasing a body at a later date and will most likely be a Resinsoul male body. I have many floating heads now that need bodies! I was looking for a sculpt that was close to my Final Fantasy 14 character and stumbled on this sculpt on another blog somewhere. Not only that, but I found it on the Den of Angels marketplace for a bargain! The head isn't the right color, but I plan on airbrushing it dark gray to match the Resinsoul body I will be getting. Anyway, here is the box opening video! My dolls actually arrived a few days ago, but the post office has been closed. I finally picked them up and opened them and posted up a video on YouTube. I don't have any pictures of the Tan Vela yet. I hope to get those up soon. I didn't want any of the Free Choice Option parts, so I did a GO for those who did want them. Someone got a pair of steampunk wings, another person got an extra set of hands, and I also sold the Vela head in the natural skin tone that is pictured. I decided to use a different head on her. I put the Elf Rena head on her from DikaDoll. The head is unfortunately kinda too large, but it is workable. I wish I just kept the Vela head and modded the ears, but oh well. Anyway, here is the box opening video! After mulling my idea for my Cyan doll, I decided to seek a different head. I trolled many doll company websites, and eventually found Doll Chateau. I fell instantly in love with everything! I LOVE IT ALL! *fangirl scream*
I love the unique bodies and heads. The sculpts are simply gorgeous and weird! I love weird! Anyway, I found a head that I loved (it was SOOOO hard to choose) that appeared to be the right sized. This was the Colin Head (Kid Doll; equivalent to a 1/4 doll or MSD). The heads were expensive, so I trolled around on DoA and eventually found someone selling the head (they bought the whole body, but didn't want the head) for a better price. My DollShe doll arrived today! Needless to say I was super excited. However, when I saw the box my heart sank a bit. It was squashed and had a HOLE in it! I opened it and was disappointed to see the doll box inside had been squashed as well, and the matte coating on the box was peeling off. :( Once opened I was even more disappointed to see that attempted sanding in a few areas discolored the doll. I have read that sanding a tan doll can do this, which is a reason why I didn't order the seams removed (not to mention it was expensive). I suppose I will have to try to match the resin during body blushing to try and fix it. |
