Little heads up: I finally got her finger wires out! The first one I did a little while ago, now today all 9 others. Gotta say: you have to like cross a line, at first its really weird, but afterwards it's fine and I got the hang of it rather quick.
Made a cut with stanley knife above the hand plate. Pushed the first wire out, got it with a 'tang'. Holded it while slightly pulling the wire out, while with my other hand 'stroping' the TPE of. Afterwards the fingers are inside out, but fix easily. Now I have 2 fully floopy hands ;p
Was going to drill also, but kinda late now...and kinda reluctant to it...Anyone who reads this and has done it before: any tips are welcome!
This in kinda writing into the void (prob. should say at repair thread, but hey) these are things I'm kinda wondering:
Drilling and the metal parts still stuck in there (is that a problem, some to take action on) and getting the debris not everywhere / in/on her...and how to achieve that ;p
Thinking of getting some electical wire (2.5mm isolated is standard her) and putting that in. Wondering if anyone has used something else maybe? or advises something else.
And also, maybe some other way than expoxy / resin to hput them back in?
*kind off busy with work allot, but I intend to do the above and some TPE repairs (still have the knees and elbows being open and all sorts of minor ones) at least before the year ends...when I get some well deserved days off
Also got a few quick snaps from her in this new (one of my sexiest) dress. This dress is very hot: open back, some folds which help bring out her butt.
At the front this piece shows of her tummy and just barely wraps around her breast. Very nice blue color. Just really glad with it.
*still unable to show the pics rotated her...crazy thing.

Also getting way better with the heels. Here's a little DIY:
Tried multiple things, some worked while others failed horribly. For me the best way is to lay her on the dinning table, and put her in 'straight' position: upper body and legs aligned facing front, maybe little twist of upper body and/or legs slighly apart / rotated, with all joints being kinda 'locked' stiff position. Then I put the heels on and place them front first at the ground. She settles her weight a little towards the ground, and I place 1/2 arms against something. Stabilize the doll, move the shoe-sole and/or heel maybe a little till they are in full contact with the floor and also stable (I wiggle her a little bit to check).
And BAMMM: one hot baby doll just begging you to lay her down and take her clothes off, just after you went thru all this trouble... woman
