OldMagician Posted January 1, 2014 Time to present my Saber, who is named Saber (I know, very original)... Surprisingly (to me at least) she and Rook (a Domuya Nightmare) seem to go along just fine. IMG_1117 by Old Magicians Abode, on Flickr IMG_1089 by Old Magicians Abode, on Flickr IMG_1075 by Old Magicians Abode, on Flickr I'll have to excuse the fact that she have neither the sword holding hands I ordered, or the correct wig yet, but I promise to post more pictures when they arrive and I have better light outside. since Rook couldn't get a good foothold in the grassy mud (despite his weight), I avoided to take any photos of Saber on horseback this time. Later I promise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sleepywolf Posted January 1, 2014 Oh! She actually managed to convince Bel to let her borrow Rook.

katnaper Posted January 1, 2014 Whoa! Rook is awesome. Of course, it goes without saying that Saber is too. But as someone who has never seen a Domuya Nightmare before, I am just in awe of that horse and the wicked armor. More photos!!!! We have our own BLOG.

OldMagician Posted January 1, 2014 Holy moly, too awesome!!! I'm so looking forward to future photoshoots of them together!!! I promise. ^_^ Oh! She actually managed to convince Bel to let her borrow Rook. Or maybe Bel doesn't know yet Be careful Saber or Rook migh throw you off Somebody knows a bit about the Abode I see... Don't know if Bel have much to say, Rook is quite independent and choose his riders according to his own ideas (and lately Bel and the other Domuya dames have been quite occupied with contemporary weaponry, if you happens to know where I can get a tank in 1:3 scale please PM me). I think she can hold on to both saddle and sword, but I might have to think about some better riding gear. Whoa! Rook is awesome. Of course, it goes without saying that Saber is too. But as someone who has never seen a Domuya Nightmare before, I am just in awe of that horse and the wicked armor. More photos!!!! Thanks, only problem with it is the weight (and size), it's great amounts of resin, and the fact that the chain-mail that covers the whole horse under the armour is made of steel doesn't help much... Saber might become the only doll I have that can handle the war-scythe that came with the nightmare, need to check when I get the extra hands from Volks. Together with the shield that might look really good. I promise more photos will come. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baldylox Posted January 1, 2014 WOW. I've never seen a steed like Rook before, he's awesome! I love all the armor and details in it. If anyone deserves to ride Rook, it's definitely Saber! These pics are great but we really, REALLY need to see her riding him! I hope you can make that happen soon! Billy I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop.

Cauldroness Posted January 1, 2014 They look like they were made for each other! The gold on Rook's armor even matches Saber's golden armor. And the scale is just right for Rook to be her destrier.

ArcticKitsune Posted January 1, 2014 Wow! I'm highly impressed. I'm loving the images, Saber, and Rook. I think that's the only time I'd go into getting a mount for a Dollfie. This looks just that awesome. Looking forward to seeing your Saber mounted on Rook. That detailing on Rook...I simply love it The proud master of a foxy (DD) Varakitsu, Renge, & Caster; Kon!~ Kon!

OldMagician Posted January 4, 2014 WOW. I've never seen a steed like Rook before, he's awesome! I love all the armor and details in it. If anyone deserves to ride Rook, it's definitely Saber! These pics are great but we really, REALLY need to see her riding him! I hope you can make that happen soon! Billy There are not that many around of these nightmares, they where probably the doom of Domuya doll. The armour is fantastic, the pictures does not show half of it, and under the plate, and steel chain and leather cover is a ball jointed black horse, with wavy mane (hard to believe). I only wish they made him less massive and perhaps had used aluminium instead of steel, he is quite a heavy thing... Problem, except for the very small amount of usable daylight at 60 degrees north, was slippery ground. I do not want the equipage to land hard in the filth, since I doubt that Sabers dress is washable... One idea is perhaps to set it up with greenscreen indoors... And I think she needs the large gripping/sword holding hands I ordered from Volks to swing the sword and the war-scythe. Anyway I am working on it and promise this forum will be the first to see the result. They look like they were made for each other! The gold on Rook's armor even matches Saber's golden armor. And the scale is just right for Rook to be her destrier. That was what hit me when I by chance set her beside him. Most of my other dolls are 65 (or 65+)cm, and make him look like a large pony. Saber is the first one who is a perfect match, and I hadn't even noticed the gold match... Just wait until you see the matching shield and the war-scythe in action. Wow! I'm highly impressed. I'm loving the images, Saber, and Rook. I think that's the only time I'd go into getting a mount for a Dollfie. This looks just that awesome. Looking forward to seeing your Saber mounted on Rook. That detailing on Rook...I simply love it I am working on it, and I think (ok, really hope) they can live up to everyone's expectation, as well as mine.

fujiro Posted January 5, 2014 They look awesome together! It's been forever since I've seen a Domuya Nightmare. They didn't make many and closed their website before I got the money to try for one myself. I'm so jealous. With the MyTwinn Prancer out of production as well I haven't been able to find a horse even remotely in scale to the DD size ladies. And the Nightmare is articulated! They just look so good together. Would love to see more pictures once there's better footing and good lighting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
