mika Posted June 18, 2016 (edited) Shizuka Untitled by Shin Aikawa, on Flickr I've always had this name in my head for quite a long time now. Shizuka means peaceful, calm and quiet. Shizuka has this very likeable gentle and calm personality to her! Shizuka is my first DD, as I've planned. I've always wanted a Dollfie Dream Moe. I first discover her in 2012 from one of Helpmebjd's youtube video. Being the first, she's very precious to me. She made me so happy. ;~;!! ----------------------- August 2nd So today I have finally received Shizuka's head from my colleague. The face up is lovely. It really is what I want her to look like. I am veeerry satisfied! She's lovely before but now she's even more lovely! So today I've completed the essentials for my Dollfie Dream, like finally! June 25th I NEVER KNEW my colleague from a department downstair is actually a BJD collector and that she also own quite a number of DD! AND SHE'S ALSO A FACE UP ARTIST!. Discovered her on 21st of June. That's crazy! This is all just too sudden for me and is too good to be true, certainly! I've checked her previous works and I thought they're just fabulous! So I decided where exactly I want my Shizuka to be sent to for a custom face up. I immediately sign her up in the commission list, ON THE SAME DAY! I've had quite specific requirements of how I want Shizuka to look like. I hope everything will be okay. June 16th It was the evening of June 16th of 2016 that I've finally received my first Dollfie Dream. She is a Moe 2nd ver. I bought the head with a DDII body. She came in a crumpled box (Postal service here is a maniac I swear!). But everything remains in place in their bubble wraps, it was a relief for me, I thank the seller for her careful packaging!

Yeah totally, there's this weird feeling about touching something you've never seen in person before. The feel and the smell of vinyl. These are all new to me. It's very exciting. Oh wow, that poor box. Glad she's safe though!Congrats on your first DD. Always very exciting!! The stuff you have picked out IS SO CUTE, too. I'm happy for you!!

mika Posted June 24, 2016 The arirval of the first doll is an unique moment, congrats! I also love what you purchased for her =3 So cute! I can't wait to see updates on her, Shizuka is a lovely name! Thank you guys. Really appreciate it. -^_^- ---- 25/6/2016 Update ---- So there's been a little change in the early plan. >_<; I might end up not be able to buy all the stuff on Nine9Style for Shizuka because I've recently found something I think I'd like more on Shizuka. There's this wig from Dollmore I've always treasure in my bookmark list! I have completely forgotten about it until recently that I decided to clean the junk in my bookmark list. The wig is EXACTLY the color I wanted for Shizuka, and to add an extra point, it's a straight hair. I've had troubles searching for Shizuka's hair, I choose the wig from Nine9Style because I wanted to get all the essentials at the same place so I could save for the shipping. Not much stuff quite suite my preference in Dollmore, which is a problem x-x;. Still looking for a way to solve this. Also, custom FACE UP! I NEVER KNEW my colleague from a department downstair is actually a BJD collector and that she also own quite a number of DD! AND SHE'S ALSO A FACE UP ARTIST!. Discovered her on 21st of June. That's crazy! This is all just too sudden for me and is too good to be true, certainly! I've checked her previous works and I thought they're just fabulous! So I decided where exactly I want my Shizuka to be sent to for a custom face up. I immediately sign her up in the commission list, ON THE SAME DAY xDD. I've had quite specific requirements of how I want Shizuka to look like. I hope everything will be okay. Ahh~ it's been 4 days without Shizuka's head. Body-chan is missing her!

Ie-Aster Posted August 2, 2016 She's so beautiful! I've never liked the mold before but the faceup really brings out its sweetness. It's so cool that you have a coworker who's into DD and BJD as well! I also love the fashion style you have chosen for her. It reminds me a bit of mori but with a softer, sweeter aesthetic.

I also love the fashion style you have chosen for her. It reminds me a bit of mori but with a softer, sweeter aesthetic. Thank you so much I really appreciate it and definitely glad my Shizuka made you change your mind about Moe, at least for a bit. Yeah for a starter like me that's pretty darn too good to be true. Almost 70% of the essentials I bought from her. The set, a face mask, a wig cap, and a pair of shoes shoes. Ditto! You're absolutely correct about mori girl. My Shizuka is heavily influenced CLAMP's Kobato. She's definitely gonna have more mori girl stuff soon. She's adorable ! Congratulations on your first girl ! Her final look is gorgeous ! Thank you Winnie, I really appreciate it. Yeah she's indeed gorgeous, I'm glad. She is very pretty, congrats. Where did you get the hair bow, it certainly adds a nice touch to her over all look. Thank you so much Sinclair, much appreciated. The hair bow is part of the set she wore in the photoset. I don't really know the origin of this set to be honest, I bought it from my colleague she got it from a Hong Kong doll convention.
