Mijn Schatje

So, after posting about actual doll theft by LadySaiyuki, I figured I should post about doll art theft by Mijn Schatje.

She takes photos of BJDs, traces over them and adds some embellishments, and calls them 'art'. Now, this wouldn't be so terrible if she had permission. She doesn't, of course. And she's selling these 'works of art'.

Yes, she's worked with playstation, she's made 'fashion', jewelry, and all kinds of stuff with other people's traced doll photos on them!

Go here for more info, blog about it, post about it, spread the word!!! The more we talk about it the sooner this evil woman will be stopped!

I feel so betrayed...

I found this really cool doll that I liked alot, she really reminded me of Asleep Eidolon Pear (who i love). Then I started really thinking she might be a copy. Well it seems my suspicions were true. DOA and Asleep Eidolon have said that it's a copy. She's banned on DOA now.

This doll is "LadySaiyuki's" Serenity. But she's really just a combination of doll parts from other companies.

I've never actually met LadySaiyuki, but have met people at meetups who knew her and have heard a bit about her and I started to feel like I knew her a little because she's one of the few (only?) BJD makers in Florida. And now this. I was even considering buying one of her yo-sd size dolls a while back, to support a local 'artist'. Technically those dolls are 'original' but then again no one has proven that.

I hope she is taken out of IDEX.

Comparison pics.

I took some comparison pics of all my dollehs. It shows how they pose and such. I don't feel like posting them all on here, so i'll just link to the Flickr set (Doll nudity):

Here is the cutest picture from the set:

Lucy Lorelei has arrived!

My birthday/christmas present from my amazing parents!!! She was scheduled to arrive Dec. 1 and I got her today! She is everything I hoped for, and the color combos worked out perfectly! She's a lot smaller than I thought she would be! I'm really amazed by her quality and posability!

My other girls are watching.

My doll has shipped! Yay!

So excited. Once again. The wait once the doll has shipped is far worse than waiting for the doll to be made. Because now I know she is in the mail and could possibly get lost or damaged. I know that she is bubblewrapped very well though. Luts has good packaging. I'm not that worried. You wouldn't think ordering a doll/waiting for one would be such an emotional experience. But it is a whirlwind of emotions.

My little chihuahua, Lullabelle (aka Doozy) is sitting underneath my computer chair right now, being adorable. My brother just got here for Thanksgiving and I think she's scared of him. Or maybe she's just annoyed that i'm getting another doll, and therefore will pay less attention to her. LOL.

Image Hotlinking

I just went through my blog and removed any hotlinked images. I did not realize that linking directly to an image was considered hotlinking. So, I changed it. Now links link to the webpage that the image is on.

I'm sorry to any websites I stole bandwidth from.
