Teddy Babe Lisa Deluxe gets inked

I also feel like they should change up the shape of their noses a tad doll bye doll... my Sam is having issues even getting a nose ring seeing how small they made her nose.... maybe change up the ears a tad from doll to doll. .. I don't know guess im getting picky again... still love the product, just feel there should be way more diversity. .

Just... Wow!

I really love to see uniquely customised TB's, and this pretty lady is amazing.
She kinda reminds me of this beautiful girl I knew many years ago.

What a privilege it is to have a girl who brings out and reflects a man's personality, rather than trying to stifle or change it.
I had the skeletal problem with my Carly TBD, I ended up making a hybrid skeleton and connecting it to the neck wires after cutting and pulling them down so it didn't poke into the top of her head.
I don't think you will be happy if she has no skeleton, simple poses say so much about a dolls mood and personality.
Samara is a pretty amazing doll doctor, she made a cool skeleton for her rescued deluxe Phoenix from flex pipe.
The back stitching seems much further spaced than any of my girls, perhaps an effort to reduce 8W's production time.

Fantastic work Juncharted2, very talented, I look forward to seeing more.

Pete.

You can look forward to seeing more pictures soon. This dragon tattoo has been quite a test, but creativity always passes...

Did you say you do not like the nose of your girl ? Uh oh.

Diversity costs money. On many levels. You need different designs. You have to stock different bodies and heads.

I think their design and their way to operate is pure genius. One design and some different lips, eyes, pubes, nails tacked on. It is clear that the body is the most expensive part of the product so it makes a lot of sense to have only one design of it.

If you want elf ears for your babe, nobody is stopping you create your own with cloth and some needlework.

Somebody woke up on the wrong side of the plush...

Well, I am just stating the obvious. Maybe in a non-plushy way.

I can understand that some want more variation in the different Babes. But you have to see that the producer has cut the price by nearly a quarter. You can do this only if your profit margin was sky high and / or if you have cut the cost of producing the product. I suspect that in this case it was cutting the cost.

They can use the body, the arms and the heads of the doll for all doll models and benefit from economy of scale. It is a very clever design.

You are good with pencils, drawing and painting. Maybe you should try sewing and sculpting and give your Babe a nose job ?

Now that I think about it... You could even add elf ears or a bigger nose by adding some plush without removing or damaging the original parts, e.g. by sewing ears that can be put over the original ears...

The only way to get that plush is to replace the vag lining with a pussy velour or whatever, easily done, it will be the right type and shade for your doll.
Or try dying pussy velour inserts, they are like $15 bucks for 4, though they might not be made from the same velour any more.

Yea, all great points, but I like her nose, I just feel like it could be a touch bigger, only bc the smallest nose ring doesn't look right.... as far as everything else on her I'm very happy, even with her nose

This is awesome and I'm very likely to give this a try, probably not with Sam but when I buy another babe.. appreciate you leaving this on my thread, I might have never seen it if not...

Okie doke, Just finished up... pictures soon..

We went tribal with this particular one, I feel like I may do a more realistic fantasy type(scales/what not) wrapping around her leg at a later time.
