Pumpkins Posted November 6, 2011 Oh mai, so many replies lol! Thank you for welcoming me Well I didn't get a character doll first, I wanted to try my hand at building her from the ground up. What will she be like, how will her personality emerge as I work on her? These are the things that made me go with just buying a head and body! Questions: Soo...do I have to use MSC? D: Cause I bought Krylon spray and I've been using that on my resin ladies. is this not okay for DDs?? *worried* @LoveAngel Congratulations! I hope she gets to you as soon as possible haha @DefectiveAngel Glad you won't be Forever Alone anymore heehee xDD OH and there is only one other Ohioan who has a DD as far as I know. I don't think she joined this site though she's on DOA though. We saw the world as children The field filled with light When did we stop believing The things before our sight?

Poofiemus Posted November 6, 2011 Ooh, I don't know about Krylon. I know from experience that Testor's doesn't get along well with vinyl though. What you might do is go get a My Little Pony (which are also made of vinyl) and spray that with the Krylon, so if it does react you're not out too much. What happens with the Testors is that it reacts weirdly with the vinyl, so it creates this sticky film that never dries. If this describes your test subject after 12 hours, then you'll know to stay away from the Krylon. If the Krylon reacts, then you will have to get Mr. Super Clear or the Volks Zokeimura spray, which are both safe for vinyl (and, incidentally, polymer clay, which is chemically related to vinyl apparently). Just make sure wherever you get it from is in the US, as there are apparently weird shipping restrictions on international spray can sales, I guess because they're flammable. Custom girls are a load of fun, and I'm glad my first girl was a custom. ^_^ I've had loads of fun making her custom clothes and hunting down and/or making funky props for her character. So, welcome! Hope to see pictures of your girl as she evolves. In this household, sanity is considered a tresspasser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pumpkins Posted November 7, 2011 Thank you Poofie for your information! =] I'll definitely have to check into that though I'll probably test it on the bottom of her feet. That way if it churls, she'll just have a weird foot tattoo that no one will see xD @Mitsuki Thank you! Gosh you all make me even more excited to receive my new girl! I dunno if I'll be able to contain myself hahaha! We saw the world as children The field filled with light When did we stop believing The things before our sight?

Halcyon Posted November 7, 2011 Welcome, Pumpkins! Make yourself at home~! One advice, huh? Let's see... keep the room that your musume lives in well ventilated. If there are flowers just outside the window, keep the window closed to prevent pollen from getting on your girl's delicate skin, and don't put flowers next to your girl. A well ventilated room will keep dust and other small particles from building up, which in turn will reduce the frequency of you washing your girl's wig(s). Make sure you have plenty of shampoo for your musume's hair! DD 娘 - Dollfie Dream® Daughters {1} : DDS [ユ-ピィ] - Euphie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pumpkins Posted November 7, 2011 Oh mai!! D: Flower can stain?! I guess it's a good thing I didn't get plants like I wanted for my room...And I'll try to keep the window/air going as much as possible! >:0 I'll probably have a meltdown if I get her stained...

Yes, the pollen from flowers and other plants will stain. It's unfortunate, indeed. Like you, I wanted plants (especially roses) in my room as well. If you a question about staining issue, I suggest your check Aquilla's Blog first. Yay, Aquilla's Blog is back! Anything that Aquillas left out can be answered by the members here in the forum. Meaning, if you have any question, don't hesitate to ask us! DD 娘 - Dollfie Dream® Daughters {1} : DDS [ユ-ピィ] - Euphie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
