congrats! I'm actually putting my doll together right now! I have to redrill one of the holes, but that's all part of the fun of having a kit!

Lesigh. Oh the day of kits is almost gone. I miss the sweat and work of sanding your own doll.

And then sometimes I'm just lazy.

Glad you made it though, you totally deserve a break! :D

It's good to be lazy, but I just love kits.. there aren't enough kits. I wish more dolls were available as a kit, actually. Besides saving me a bunch of time it also means that people who are too squeamish for kits will not bother unless they can hire someone to put them together.

What hole did you have to redrill?? Anyway I'm glad you've finally had time to start playing with yours so you can put it together!! Hope you are happy with the result:D

I think it was the left thigh. I drilled it through then there was some weird purple blue rubbery stuff blocking the inside- kind of like rubber?

But I got it and she's all put together, but I think I strung her retarded because she's like, loose. I'm just going to tighten the strings a bit. It was different than your model because I have a luts easy release neckpeice I used so I could take my dolls head on and off easily. But the dress I got for her fits! (except for one snap, but it's covered by her hair).

Weird purply stuff, that would have been silicone. Glad you were able to get it out though.. can't believe I missed it!!

And yes I am pretty sure the Luts neck piece makes the elastic looser since it makes the knot sit in the neck instead of inside the head. Pictures soon then?

Yup! Hahah, yea, I used a dremel to cut the extra resin out and then used my stringing tool to push it up and out. It wasn't too hard, I was just so confused as to what was in that leg!

And yes, pictures will be soon! I'm not done completely, I havent given her a manicure or painted on her moles and scars. Then pictures~!
