Chloe's Hands

  • Nov. 9th, 2009 at 2:41 PM
Pink Poodle
..... ugh. .. yes.. blurry .... :( ................ but that's my picture taking skills for you ............................ cat hair and blur is my middle name.........
.
I have been asked this question more than once, so i will attempt to answer it here.... (so then i can just link to it .. and not scrounge around repeating myself all the time.)  Chloe = AiL Chloe + Soom Amber body + Soom Cuprit hooves + Dollmore Dollpire hands   . 
.
Chloe's hands are of HUGE INTEREST O_O to people ...... and... she has not even had her nails done yet O_O .   What they are:  "Dollmore Model F Glamour Doll Dollpire"  ............ the link to Dollmore is here:  http://www.dollmore.net/shop/step1.php?number=7106  .... Note that YES these ARE the hands in the link...  BUT .... Chloe has them in WHITE ... these are in 'Normal' ..................... i am a terrible Dollmore searcher ... and no.. i do not know where the WHITE LINK is .......... you may have to write to Dollmore and ask.. i have NO CLUE and i purchased the hands through a tiny 'personal GO' .......................  this means: i do not usually do ANY overseas ordering and all of you guys help me out.   These ARE Chloe's hands.. but how one 'gets them' and 'gets them in WHITE' ... i do not know.
.
How do they fit ? How does the wrist joint look ? How do they compare to Super Gem and Amber Fauna hands ??? .. they are wayyyyyyy smaller than Amber hands ... they are smaller and more delicate than the regular female super gem hands ..... one has to want a graceful delicate hand 'look' for a Super Gem in order to be happy.  I am THRILLED with them.  They are whiter than the Super Gem cream .... but this bothers me not at all ....... of course eventually her nails will get done and perhaps she will get 'blushed' and then that really will be that: one would never see the difference ..........    The hands are also more graceful than the long fingernailed Dikadoll hands ... i also 'considered' those for Chloe.  The Dollpire has a 'ball cone' that nests right into the Super Gem arm socket.  Again: *shrug* seems fine to me O_O .
.
Proportion with these dolls is a personal thing.  It's part of why we love them: we can mix and match the parts until the 'look' is right to us.  My husband pointed out just last night ..... " The poodle's hands are HUGE ... what is wrong with the hands on that thing ?" I said:  "Nothing. That is 'the look' ."  He said: "Well then, how come Chloe doesn't look like that.  Her hands are MUCH NICER."   I laughed and said, "That's actually QUITE AMUSING ... since i SWITCHED Chloe's hands .. the normal super gem girl hands are MUCH larger and the nice scary (amber) ones are ABSURDLY HUGE .. i said: i switched Chloe's hands ................. he did this: O_O .. and said: she has nice hands.  I said: yes: i paid MORE MONEY and SWITCHED HER HANDS ................ with shipping ... the Dollmore Dollpire's cost about 45 USD.
.
The Dollpire hands really are beautiful from every angle .... and I am very happy with them.

oh, thank you !!!!!!, Sybilla ! :):) .

Bob keeps waiting for me to put her high heeled feet on her ... he insists that her hooves 'ruin' her ........ he says: what is WRONG WITH YOU ???? She belongs in HIGH HIGH HIGHHEELS and high heeled feet ..........

I was thinking this morning.. that i probably should look around for.. the PERFECT PAIR of HIGH HIGH HIGHHEELS for her.. and give him his wish........

Well my first reaction to Bob wanting Chloe to lose her beautiful hooves was to scream NOOOOOOOOOOO! But then I thought about how I totally un-did my dear Nightshade and gave her hooved body over to my Cuprit. So Nightshade is now a footed girl, and her Hex is, for now, DEAD! Because Julian took HIS hooved body..it gets to be so confusing. I do miss Nightshade's hooves though. I may give them back to her. Not sure yet. Although the hooves look great with the Cuprit because of her outfit...but anyway..whatever you do, Chloe will be gorgeous. But the hooves do look so magical on her. :)

... :):) ... well, i wasn't thinking of 'unhooving her' in the sense of 'taking her hooves away' or 'giving them to someone else' .... i was just thinking: let me get her a pair of really fancy high heels.. and then put her high heeled feet on .... and she can sit around and Bob can admire her shoes and her ankles for five minutes.......

and then i would say: okay ! that's that :) ... and back would go on her hooves. :):) And.. Bob and her could both stare at her high heeled shoes .........

It's just that she does have high heeled feets so.... she is also one day supposed to get the 'short haired version' of her hair .... (it's been sold out :( ) .... so... perhaps: short hair, high heeled feets.... long hair... hooves ......... you know that sort of 'transformation' .....

how are you liking the cuprit ?

That would be good, interchanging her feet and hooves:)...I hate changing hooves myself..those strings can be a hassle! 'lol' ...on Cuprit..at first I thought about just turning around and selling her because I wasn't as enamored of her as I thought I'd be. But then I sat her next to my Sabik, Rune, and they seemed to 'hit it off' so I've decided to keep her. She is quite pretty. I DID think she would help me get over wanty wanting Beryl, but apparently I deluded myself. I really do wish I still had Beryl. But not wanting to pay $2000 for her, no way.

Don't you have Beryl hooves ??? ........... you know.. i was going to tell you: there is a "Want to Buy" up for the Beryl hooves..and the person is willing to pay 500 ..... i was going to say..if you had them.. they are great hooves.. really great.. but.. MAYBE you would want to 'ditch' them.. because.. it would buy LOTS of LUSION FINERY ........ meaning: i think you might get more use out of 'lusion antiques' for 'playtime'..

Yah it would buy a lot, but I wanted at least one male and one female doll with hooves, so I'll always keep them. Cuprit looks much better with hooves than Nightshade did. Nightshade just looked out of place with them. Cuprit, being otherworldly looking, looks really good with hooves. I may eventually sell some of my tinies. But probably not till after Christmas. Things seem to slow down at Christmas with everyone needing holiday money.

Yes: you are right about 'Christmas' ... the other thing about Christmastime is this: watch for 'decent dolls' to come on the market ... because people WANT ... HOLIDAY money.

So.. while it's not the time to sell one.. it is the time to buy them.

Interesting about the Cuprit that you say she makes a better hoofie. That is an interesting thought in general: that 'otherworldliness' would make .. a BETTER hoofie.......

Yes true about buying..people are more willing to take less because of needing Xmas money.

On Nightshade, another reason of the hooves not working as well is she was always wearing long dresses. Right now though, she's just a head. I have a Super Gem body for her, but haven't gotten around to putting Nightshade's head on it.

.... O_O ... oh, you've GOT to put her head on her !! :) . Once you get the Lusion... Nightshade will REALLY get ZERO ATTENTION ......... go put her head on her while you still even remember her name :):) .

Yes I really need to get her put together..the Soom Dia's face is so beautiful. I feel SCARED because I'm really loving the new Soom MD, Galena's face. She's so delicately beautiful. I might be able to swing getting her nakie with just a face up...don't know. I just so hate those Soom waits and I fear what I'll be sent after waiting for months...but I really love that face..:(

yes. i like her face as well.. but .. i think that there will be enough of her 'around' later ...... the whole soomy 'wait' combined with soomy 'screw ups' is just.... too much.

You have to play with the dia this weekend O_O .. with the lusion on her way.. it is all over for all your other dolls .... :) .
