oreii Posted October 28, 2013 After a horrible journey home last night from London to Windermere on a cramped Megabus, I was delighted to see this morning that my parcel was in a town close to mine, especially on the day that I had returned from the MCM Expo! (Well, I say day, I mean I had been travelling from 5pm to 4am ) Anyway, the wait felt like AGES! Every van that pulled up outside my house I jumped up and ran to the door but after a few funny looks and let downs, she finally arrived! The first words I said when I opened the big box up was, "insertSwear*, she's huge!!" Now, if you'd excuse the blurred images and the inconsistent lighting, this is my DDS Student Mariko, which I am in the process of turning into the character out of the manga I am producing, Tiger Weiss! "What? My clothes?" " Mamma got them from the lovely bethykins. They're pretty neat, right?" "...But I want more. I refuse to wear a school uniforms. I despise them. I despise this hair colour. The length is unsettling. I won't talk to you until you buy more for me. Hmph." Ah. My selfish little princess ^ _ ^ I'm in love with her face! //huntsfornewclothes I'm so glad I got her now! I adjusted the length of her hair a little by a clip in her hair but she...she needs a new wig "This is some kind of joke...right?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amber Posted October 29, 2013 She's really adorable! I love the Mariko headmold... She just looks so cute all of the time. I don't think I've ever seen one with a teal wig before, but I gotta say I really like it. It goes really well with her skintone and eye color. Not sure if you're keeping that same color, since you said you need another wig, but it looks really pretty on her either way. ^__^ I'm glad that you got her safe & sound, even if you may have scared anyone who drove by your house in a van.

bethykins Posted October 30, 2013 Oh!! She's just so so cute! I love her!!!! I'm so glad she arrived safely if you go to expo in may we will have to have a "mini" meet !!!

oreii Posted October 31, 2013 Thank you all! The wig colour is slowly growing on me, I'm ordering a whisperblue leekeworld one but I get the feeling I'll have a lighter blue colour in the summer and this teal-green in the winter for her Haha I love her attitude! She is such a super cutie and I'm glad that everything ended working out with the seller. Tiger is ready to be lavished with gifts! Everything worked out fine, apart from her bag being broken and a large stain on her head. When I told the seller about it...well, I haven't heard from them since, but I guess it's okay since I wasn't planning on using the bag anyway. But I am still a little dissapoint... Oh!! She's just so so cute! I love her!!!! I'm so glad she arrived safely if you go to expo in may we will have to have a "mini" meet !!! Yes! Did you go to the one a few days ago? I put off buying an outfit from SoraBJD since the owner of the Etsy store was there because my girl hadn't arrived yet and then she came literally the same morning I came home! I was thinking of going to the Manchester one next year, but I'll have a see! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azy Posted November 28, 2013 Mariko is definitely my favorite DD, her face is just.. ugh! Sooo cute! I too think this wig looks great on her. I always thought she'd look best with a brown wig, I never thought she'd be able to pull off a teal wig. Anyways, congrats on getting her. I currently have Mariko on layaway and I get more and more excited each time I see a picture of her . ~ Currently putting DD collecting on hold ~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Talolili Posted December 2, 2013 She is so pretty especially with this colored wig. So you're producing your own manga? What is is about? I assume Tiger (Mariko) is the main character? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I currently have Mariko on layaway and I get more and more excited each time I see a picture of her . She is very cute and I'm sure you'll absolutely adore her when she comes home! She was a little too moe for me so I traded her out for a Mio because I just couldn't resist the little pout I think she'd suit more unnatural coloured wigs if it wasn't for her blonde eyebrows haha! Congrats on your Mariko too, hope she arrives safely and looking forwards to seeing what you do with her! She is so pretty especially with this colored wig. So you're producing your own manga? What is is about?I assume Tiger (Mariko) is the main character? Thanks! Well, it's still in the production stages yet haha, Tiger is a side character who's design I happened to fall in love with and since Mariko was my first DD I wanted to replicate her style. Unfortunately things didn't work out with the moe madam and so now I have a more fitting head sculpt for my character ^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
