I've spent much of today taking pictures, and getting to know my new doll....
|
First of all, she's a Raccoon Fashion doll. Never heard of them? Well, Raccoon is owned by Sang Yoon Choi, who is also the primary sculptor. He originally worked for Iplehouse, and was responsible for some of my favourite sculpts there, including Asa, Rex, and Bianca.
In 2015 he went off on his own, and started Raccoon Doll, with his focus primarily on making the more mature looking, middle size Fashion dolls. I was trying to not be very interested at first, since I was seriously trying not to get hooked on the new Fashion size dolls. But I've always loved his Special Edition Temptation Monica. She was my favourite of all his dolls. So when the opportunity to get one presented itself, I just had to get her. |
She's gorgeous, and was lucky Bianca was off with the Phantom, so she could borrow her pink gown. Monica is a little smaller in all her measurements, so the dress had to be pinned in the back.
I think she's definitely going to need some body blushing, and a manicure. She can't have such dull boring hands with such dramatic makeup. Speaking of....our two granddaughters were over for dinner last night, and Monica was seated on the sofa on my dining room table, waiting for her photo shoot today. The girls always go to see what I have set up there. Teagan told me that she loved the makeup on "the doll in pink".
I only have five wigs her size, all in brown/black, and stole this one off of Miho....
I'm finding that she's a challenge to hold a pose. She's rather 'kicky', and I had to use eye putty to hold her hands in place for the photo above. She will definitely need some sueding. Maybe even some wiring.
She's most beautiful when looking straight into the camera. A true Fashion model!
Oh, those stray hairs!!
It's interesting that in her profile shot above, I see the same profile as in some of Raccoon's Bebe dolls (comparable in size to Iplehouse BIDs)
She's going to need some kind of dramatic gown at some point. I'm rather busy with other things at the moment, so it's a good thing she has something to wear in the meantime. I'll just keep looking at her to see what it is she'd like to have me make for her....
