Mio is now hiding back in her box from embarrassment.

Looks awesome though; glad that worked. Now I need that swimsuit!

It's been a decade and Mio is still fun to bully.😳

Cute. I like Yuriko's uniform and posing.

Oh, man, such attitude. I love it. 😄

Yuriko's wig looks like a slightly shorter version of Maine/Myne from Ascendance of a Bookworm. I bet she'd be the cutest on a MDD body.

 

 

 

 

How do you find time to give all your dolls proper attention?

She probably would be.

Changing outfits, checking for stains, and taking their pictures. Also picking up outfits that I think will fit one of them in particular. Sometimes just putting one of them on my desk when I am doing other things.

Something like this is what I'm going to try to do. I don't expect to ever have the quantity of girls you do but still what's probably almost too many for me, and I'm thinking I'll try to rotate through them with a "cutie of the month" (or week, whatever) that I devote time to.

I want to talk about the fit of those blazer school outfits. The full size one is a DD-specific outfit, and clearly is really actually tailored to the DD and DDS body. It looks like it's almost small if anything, as the jacket's top snap is being pulled on a bit on Sakura even with her arms down. I see the same on Yuriko, but it may be the arms-up poses doing it there.

As the sleeves are slightly long on DD I'm guessing they're moreso on DDS without her arms being bent. On the outfits that also fit SD the sleeves may be longer because of that, but I don't get why they're still too long on outfits made for DD only.

The one on Yayoi fits nicely, but I've been trying to figure out exactly why it makes her look like a child. I think it's because of it being a MSD/MDD outfit, and like most of those, tailored like children's clothing. In this case that means the jacket is just a straight tent without being narrower at the waist. I suspect the other issue may be the length of it and how it fits on the DDP body. Based on what @Galvatim has shown with some of the MDD default outfits being short on DDP, I'm thinking that the jacket should really be longer here, and that the skirt also is probably riding up high making her body look shorter than it is?

I had really hoped with the release of standard DDPs that there would be more DDP-specific clothing, but since Volks made Ribbon and Coron be more childlike with the DDH-01 type head sculpts, and that the outfits they're pushing for them so far are those pastel kids' outfits, I don't really see them releasing stylish outfits fit for teens after all.

I also posed her in a way that was intended to be more childlike than Yuriko or Sakura.

Definitely issues with the skirt riding up a bit, but no more than I experience with DDs. I think the jacket should be longer, but I also don't mind the fit.

The shirt that goes with the brown uniform is definitely fitted for DD. It fit Sakura's waist perfectly, and Yuriko only needed slight adjustments. It was a bit more snug than the t-shirt Sakura is wearing.

Sure, but I think it's the shape (or lack of) of the outfit making her body look like it has no shape other than just straight it the thing I'm noticing more.

It looks good on her, it's just not what I want for DDP. Every time I think about getting Yayoi, I'm stopped by the lack of clothing. A girl her age would want more stylish clothing, not clothing that makes her look like a kid. Or at least that's what I want for her, and there really just isn't anything, and no evidence that Volks is going to start making anything like that either. We don't even have jeans to fit DDP which is ridiculous. Then there is the lack of hands, extra busts...

This is good, because as I learned with the recent dark blue suit, sometimes even DD-specific outfits come with shirts or specific pieces that are based on generic SD patterns so still don't fit DD so well.

Ok, this has been awhile coming. It took me a month of preparation getting them all dressed up in their defaults, and all day today to get everything composed the way I wanted it. It's still not perfect, but it got the job done.

 

All my Volks Dolls.

 

All my dolls. The composition got a bit more cramped here, and two of them aren't fully in the fame.

Ah 〜

I envy you sooo much. I want em all ;-; 

Seriously that is a huge collection. Love the white saber.

You user name should be “Beyond god “ I seriously adore that collection 😍

I'm not even close to having the largest collection here. AFAIK that honor goes to @baldylox.

Haha, thanks for the mention.  I'm officially at 108 now with 2 heads on the way once they are paid off.  Then I have to figure out bodies for them.  So that will be a little bit before they're here and ready to share.

Given your current rate of doubling, I figured you would be at 1000 by now. 🤣😂🤣

Now I request a @baldylox photo of this doll room because I can't imagine such collection. Impressive!!!! That's a number I'm totally sure I will never get.

Hate to break this to you, but the dolls are in control of this. @Gabriel's Ranka has ordered several new girls while he wasn't looking.

Ummm wow ....  ;-; if only I dropped out of college and used that money to buy dolls and probably a house

Now it makes sense. Hope my girls never reach that level because my wallet will squeal as never before.

I don't want to derail the thread by going off topic and posting pics of my stuff here.  Soon enough I'll take some updated photos of the doll room and the other places they dwell in my house so everyone can see.  Thank you for the compliments and I appreciate you wanting to see them!
