Taralphiel Posted May 1, 2012 Hello everyone! My name is Lauren, but I go by Taralphiel (here and on most other forums, Den of Angels in particular). I've been into resin ball-jointed dolls since 2005, and in 2010 I started to notice and appreciate Dollfie Dreams. Last year I finally took the plunge and ordered a DDH-04 with a normal skin body. It's been love ever since! Once I get my posting limit up, I'll be sure to post pictures of Kaede. I'm currently out of a job ( ) but when I get a steady wage going again, I'm considering another DD, or an SQ labs girl. I find such a refreshing difference b/w DD's and resin dolls. The weight and handling ease are just the beginning! I hope to get to know a few people here and learn more about these lovely girls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Talolili Posted May 1, 2012 Welcome! I started off with ABJDs first as well, but when I got my first Dollfie Dream I just knew they were perfect for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taralphiel Posted May 1, 2012 Welcome! I started off with ABJDs first as well, but when I got my first Dollfie Dream I just knew they were perfect for me. Thanks for the welcome! It's good to know there are people that came to DD's the same way. I don't think I'll ever give up on the resin ABJD hobby. But I do think I'll enjoy being a DD fan at the same time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amber Posted May 1, 2012 Hi! I can't wait to see pictures of your Kaede. That is a pretty name, I was considering naming my newest girl (DDS Ms. Mariko) that, but then I decided on Kareha. I want to get an SQ Labs head as well, I just need to save up for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MyuMyu Posted May 1, 2012 Hi Lauren! My favorite face mold is DDH04 so I hope to see your's soon. I hope you to have a great experience with her Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

archangeli Posted May 2, 2012 Hi Lauren! I recognize your username from DoA - welcome to this forum too! The 04 head is adorable - I'm looking foward to seeing some pictures of Kaede too! I love seeing more resin owners incorporating DD's into their collections. My first doll was a Volks SD16, and DD's handle so differently! Although I still love resins, my doll family is mostly DD girls ^_^" Archangeli.net | Twitter: @MsArchangeli | YouTube: Archangeli Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

juu-yuki Posted May 17, 2012 Welcome to the forum~ Glad to hear you getting into DDs. Resin owners are normally very surprised by how light they weigh and how well they pose X3 A DDH-04 is a great choice for your first DD. http://juu-yuki.com Dolly Shop: http://www.lizanna.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taralphiel Posted June 11, 2012 Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! I'm glad 04 is so popular here. She's a great sculpt. After some consideration, an SQ labs girl looks to be the next thing in my future. But I'm pretty sure she'll be on a DD small bust body. I love the bodies, and as the resin BJD owners have already said, it's such a nice difference. Looking forward to getting to know you all better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
