Wook at da widdle kitty

Instructions - with elastic diameter AND recommended elastic length! (I wish this was industry standard.)

Puma pet doll with Type A head ordered blank from Iplehouse on Feb 23, 2024 and arrived today, which is less than 2 months (speed of light in the BJD world). 62 cm from head to tail tip and HEAVY. Standing when all the weight is in the center and the legs are on the corners is... difficult.

I plan to blush with airbrush acrylic paint. Iplehouse said they don't sell pet dolls blushed anymore because they had problems with the blushing not sticking to the doll. I find that airbrush paint tends to stick better than pastels, so... wish me luck.

Spouse saw me get the box and sighed. heh heh heh

He'll come around when I put kitty in his lap.

Reshelled Dolls

Having been in this crazy hobby since May 2011, I have accumulated quite a few dolls (current count as of Nov 12. 2023: 51), but not all have stayed. Some even got reshelled.

Most of my reshelled dolls completely replaced the original shell, except in the case of Ursa and Lily. I have both of their (very different looking) shells still in my collection, with each being a version of the OC they represent. The others were mostly sold, though a few got a different character assigned to them (Val 1.0 Head = Kass, Morgan 1.0 = Viola, Sam 2.0 Head = Ivy). Basically I reshell dolls when their characters outgrow their doll avatars so to say.

I even reshelled my first doll, Melody, who had been an Obitsu 60cm Gretel and is now a Doll Chateau Snow Nymph. The original shell was sold because I found I vastly preferred resin to vinyl, and because the character had fallen out of use/importance. So initially I didn't even intend to reshell her.

It's kind of funny how Melody came about to be reshelled. I instantly fell in love with the DC Snow Nymph upon seeing her pictures, but couldn't afford or justify her yet, but I knew I needed her. It took me a while to figure out why and who she needed to be, and then it clicked, she was Melody.

My wife (then fiancee) surprised me by ordering her on layaway as a wedding gift for me. Which is very special for many reasons, one being that Melody had been the first OC I created specifically to RP with my wife with (though we were only friends at that point, quickly becoming besties though). So it was only fitting that she became a wedding gift in 2015 from my wife (though it took her many more years to finally shell Darten, her husband, in 2019 I think?).

Anyway, do you guys have any reshelled dolls, and if so, why or why not?

Doll Pattern (and pictures!) blog

The person who maintains the Antique Lilac blog is a professional photographer and BJD collector. They also have a full page of (free!) sewing pattern tutorials, like this one:

There are patterns for MSD/FID and tinies (BID), because they tend to prefer Iplehouse dolls.
