Mikuo_Hatsune Posted January 1, 2012 Hello Everyone Mikuo_Hatsune from Sydney Australia (Mikus_Husband on Figure.FM) I've been planning for a Dollfie for the last few days, mostly cause of hanging around Figure.FM and will likely will get one this month, looking at Yukino 2nd on the Volks site as a start I'm not generally a fan of big dolls, I mostly play/collect with Busou Shinkis (15cm Dolls with armour) but I hope some of you here can help me break that Money isn't too much of an Issue, I pay 20-300$(AUD) for one piece of Shinki clothing(and I buy quite a few from YJA) so I spend maybe 600$(+more for Proxy fees) a week on clothing alone for the 15cm Dolls I have, however I'm here to create a Dollfie for my own, I want to make Alicia Melchiott from Valkyria Chronicles http://ojsama.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/sega-alicia-char.jpg (As I think Yukinos eyes and hair pretty much matches hers) I was also wondering if there is anyone here who creates/takes commission for Clothing ideas aswell as I kind of want that Gallian uniform she wears(no need for the boots or rifle, I'll just buy standard ones) Untill then I'll wait for Yukino to arrive and nice to meet you all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SakuraSylph Posted January 1, 2012 Welcome to the forums! There are some seamstresses around, but the ones I know of are all closed for the holidays (since sometime in November). I'm sure others know of people I do not, though. ^_^ SakuraSylph Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mikuo_Hatsune Posted January 1, 2012 Thanks Sylph ^^ Guess I can wait around, theres other cute and stylish outfits I have my eyes on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
animex99 Posted January 1, 2012 Welcome! If you can get someone to make the uniform I would be interested in getting one too. I love Valkyria Chronicles. Alicia would look really cute as a Dollfie. I could undertake making weapons and armor also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anouc Posted January 1, 2012 Nice to meet you ^^ ... Nice idea but i think a SQ-lab head would be a better choice for that character ^^ ... her chin is much sharp so i think yukino looks to round for it?!?! But thats my opinion ^^ ... Interested to see how the result will look ^^ https://www.facebook.com/fantasydolls?ref=hl ☆〜（ゝ。∂) ♥ Dollfie Dream Faceups ~ ☆ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alicia would look really cute as a Dollfie. I could undertake making weapons and armor also. well I found this http://www.alicescollections.com/ww003-blue-p-45.html?cPath=3_17 hopefully it will fit however I might change the pants over to a blue skirt (If I can find one) and might make her signature bandanna on my own since its just going to be a square of red patterned fabric Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mitsuki Posted January 2, 2012 Welcome, Mikuo_Hatsune! I think Yukino 2nd would make an adorable Alicia Melchiott. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pupi Posted January 2, 2012 Welcome! You "stole" my idea XD I wanted to make a custom Alicia for my boyfriend as gift for our 6th anniversary! I agree with Anouc: Some SQ-lab heads fits Alicia more than Yukino: http://sqlabdolls.com/top.html Iris, Yukari, Wakana and Hitomi can work! Just my opinion!!! ^^' Have fun in this nice place! enthusiast pasta girl - she/her - power bi Mini Mode Lab Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mikuo_Hatsune Posted January 4, 2012 Thank you guys for your welcoming messages and tips/help! I agree with Anouc: Some SQ-lab heads fits Alicia more than Yukino:http://sqlabdolls.com/top.html Iris, Yukari, Wakana and Hitomi can work! Just my opinion!!! ^^' I have taken a look at the ones you mentioned and they seem to be more matching thank you very much, however may I use Yukinos eyes and wig on them? also is there other essentials I may need to get when buying a Dollfie?

Poofiemus Posted January 4, 2012 Yup! You'd get the shaggy curl wig and animetic anzu/apricot H types from Volks. You may want to consider getting 20mm eyes instead of 22s though; I've heard SQ Labs own eyes (and probably by extension eye holes) run a little smaller than Volks'. In this household, sanity is considered a tresspasser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
