Congrats...
Re: Silicone 4.6ft 60lbs Doll From BeautifulDolls arrived!!!
Congrats on getting your new doll. Ning looks really cute. Your description of her arrival brought back memories of when I first saw my RD Claire Marie. Initially, I was afraid to touch her, because it was almost like meeting a real girl for the first time , but as you have found with Ning, it doesn’t take long to get acquainted . I know what you mean about how unwieldy heavier dolls are. When I started photographing Claire, it gave me more respect for the other photographers on this forum, because until you’ve tried to do a number of poses with your doll, you don’t realise how much work goes into a shoot. However saying that, for me, the weight makes Claire feel more realistic. I love Ning’s skin tone. I’m not sure if it’s the lighting you’ve used, but her colouring seems to be quite realistic. She is still a bit shiny, but as many people have said, with certain types of silicone a good powdering after giving her a bath will remove the shine which some dolls have and it also makes her feel more realistic. As for the oil leaching out, Claire Marie is six years old and she still leaves marks on the bed linen!
Regards,
Dave.

As for the pictures from others, its kind of funny, I've seen alot of pictures on here with something wrong, where I didnt like the position of fingers, or the way the legs were positioned, etc.. Its a good thing I didnt say anything about any pics. Definitely, as you say, a new respect to the photographers. What a royal pain to not only take a decent photo, but just getting her dressed!! I find myself trying to place individual fingers properly, get her legs not so bowed out, etc.. etc..
Her skin does look and feel ALOT better after the corn starch tho. Giving her a bath was quite interesting as well. =)

When dressing my dolls, with most dresses, shirts and tops, I put legs on first, next I pull it over her hips.Phreddie wrote: I could not get her top on over her head and arms, so had to put it on legs first.
Put on stockings first. It is much more easy to pull dresses - and even tight jeans - over stockings than over silicone.
Then, shoulder straps are easy, long sleeves may be difficult: I put my own hand through the sleeve (from the hand side), hold her hand in mine to prevent finger pokes, and carefully pull the sleeve in place. I don't buy clothes with a small neck, so most dresses and shirts have deep cleavage
And most important, when dressing: don't hurry, take your time and plan every move. You will learn quickly how to dress her.
For me, dressing my dolls is fun time

Also I have seen that the cat seems to be warming up to her.

Friday, I got home from work at 8pm (went in at 8am).
Saturday, went in at 8:30am, home at 2am.
Sunday in at 9pm, home at 5am.
Monday in at 9am, home at 9pm (and I blew a brake line in the car on the way in, so gotta fix that sometime).
Tomorrow will be busy as well, hopefully I can get home and get some sleep/family time/etc..
I'm glad I can spend nights (even tho they are a few hours) with Ning. At least I have her, and was able to at least do that one sort of photo session.
Noted with the stockings going on first, definitely one of those "duhh.. yeah.. what didnt I think of that?" moments when you mentioned it. =) And yes, I'll be sure to use a sharp blade if I decide to trim down the seam more, and avoid pulling.
So perhaps she does want to play, since I havnt been around much... I feel so bad. I did give her a sort of massage last "night"/this morning tho when I spent a few hours in bed with her.

The pro's use Cuticle Scissors to trim down the seams and flashing left on a doll after it is removed from the mould.
