The Doll Forum

Thanks guys.
I love when a face can finally go from sculpt...to cast piece. It absolutely changes them. I don't know how, but it surely does.
It's as though I spend all this time sculpting and molding and in the end, a face that I don't even recognize comes out to see me.
It makes my assistant crazy as I am never completely satisfied with them...but, they quickly grow on me.
This Hope head is really fun to take photos of.
I always want to see what is waiting around the corner. So, we'll immediately cast another and give her very different coloring...and watch her morph into someone else. Having a bunch of wigs available is also the way to go.

The Gaia head is coming next. I opened her mouth a bit so she will be "functional".

I rather like the more closed mouth, they look less.......surprised? She is just hot

Hi!
Tonight we made some wonderful changes to the site. Some of the changes include a whole section that's devoted to ordering our heads separately.
This should make ordering them a lot easier. Onward and upward!!!!

Very nice face-great features . Her looks would work well with lots of different skin tones and hair types. Shes multi-racial looking....Perfect!!!!

Hey Patrick, I tried to check out the changes that were made to your site today and didn't get past the front page. Every time I clicked the pictures on the front page there was a quick load, but nothing happened. Are you doing some maintainence? Is anyone else having this problem?

Everything works fine for me.

That's strange. I'll try again.

Nope. Still can't get onto the site. I'm using Windows Vista, what is your OS?

Mac OS X Tiger

Thanks. Can anyone with a Windows OS access the site?

Hi,
I've notified my web guy to look for any upload issues. He'll check all the platforms again I'm sure.
I appreciate your letting us know about it. Thanks, P

I'm using Windows 7 and had no trouble today accessing the site.

Hey hey,
We enabled Windows IE 6...though it's only in use by a small percentage of computer users. So, all should be well.
We'll be adding new vids, pics, and "accessories" like torsos, hands, feet...etc, very regularly. Making those sorts of goodies is how we began this wacky business.
Two reasons we don't make all the toys anymore,...we're beyond busy with the full dolls. They take all of our attention and energy...and, the old tin based molds are just not compatible with the platinum silicone we use now. We're remolding as we go.
Just opened a new mold for the Gaia head tonight. She has a usable mouth. Nice!
So, we'll cast her tomorrow in our Mocha color and show some pics before we send her out.

Don't know exactly what I did to fix it besides clearing temporary Internet files and cookies

Hope that helps

Sincerely JM

I'll be intrigued to see what you do with the hands. Talking about good working fingers that bend correctly and hold things is something I get kidded about, but only because people have taken for granted that doll fingers are just floppy appendages at the ends of arms or worse, a wire poke hazard. I'd like to see them become functional. You had mentioned something about that a few months ago, but I haven't really seen anything authoritative about it on the website. All I saw were a few finger photos against a red background, and the way there were photographed was unconvincing. Do you have a finger demonstration coming up with the new photos/vids? What's the latest on finger technology? Thanks.
