I've wanted a Realdoll since forever. When i told my girlfriend that i wanted a doll she said "get one

". The words barely left her mouth before i was on Abyss' site and my doll was on her way, or so i thought. RD's site says something like 4-6 months and im thinkin ok, works of art take time. Then i find TDF and see people saying 8-9 months, 10-11 months and even some year and a half waits WTH?! I noticed by reading old threads that Abyss used to post here some and i really think it would be great if they drop in and give us an update and perhaps the gameplan on how to get lead times back in the realm of reality. I'd like some sense of hope here as it seems to be getting longer everyday.
This is my first doll and post on TDF. Sorry it was basically a whine. I do have some questions not quite covered in the multitude of threads i have been reading here for the last six months.
Q1: Is there a specific type of make up ingredient to avoid for RD's silicone? Like can i use any liquid eyeliner and not cause damage?
Q2: How long does it take for bright colored clothing to cause stains to the silicone skin? I really like bright colors and dont want to wash the clothing to oblivion (fade). Is it a few hours (photoshoot)? Can i sleep overnight with her in a black nighty and be ok?
