_{Do not post my pictures anywhere without my permission.
-"But I credited you!" - I don't care, did you ask for permission?
-"But I didn't know they were yours!" - NEVER post anyone else's art anywhere if you can't ask the author for permission. If you don't know the author, you can't ask them, therefore you should not post the pics.

If you have LOTS of questions about these dolls, please, go visit Den of Angels, they have lots of information that could help answer all of your questions~! (plus I am still pretty new to this hobby so I dont know EVERYTHING)

What are these things called?
They are called ABJD (Asian Ball Jointed Dolls) and no, they are not made out of porcelain, they are made out of Resin.

Wow you have such pretty girls--
I am sorry to burst your bubble but the only girl in my group is Celine (points at the pinked haired lil cat girl) All the others are BOYS, sorry if its disturbing, but thats life.

Why are they so girly-looking?
Well, the reason why MINE are girly looking is, let me be blunt, I am a nut when it comes to girly boys. Other then that, the companies usually have some pretty girly ones because, well, I think in Asia having pretty looking dolls is a good thing (you dont want your character to look like a butt crack to you?)

Why do you like girly boys?
pfff long story, I have just been interested in them for a long time and plus, I love to draw them, who doesnt?

Where did you get your dolls?
I got Mikahel from Dollzone through the Denver Doll Emporium (they are really nice and if you are planning on buying a new doll, buy through them) Jessaiah from Doll In Mind through Denver Doll Emperium, Celine from a friend of mine on Den of Angels, and I bought Armounious from the Marketplace on Den of Angels.

How did you make these dolls?
If I did, I would be a millionaire xD but no I didnt, they are all made by their respective companies.

How much are they?
It all depends on which kind you want and from what company. Mikaehl was about $590, Jessaiah about $580, and Celine was almost $400.

They're expensive. Why spend so much on a doll?
Because I want to >_> plus, if you ever made a character and wanted to hold them, its the greatest feeling in the world, trust me

Are you selling them/Can I have them?
NO! Unless I put up an add to sell them, but if I didnt, dont ask please~!

Can I draw __________?
Of course you can~! Just be sure to give ME proper credit for the character and a link to the image so I can see~! AND BE SURE TO ASK MY PERMISSION FIRST~!

Can I base one of my characters off of yours?
NO YOU MAY NOT! I cant stress this enough, if you cant make your own characters from your own mind, you shouldnt be allowed to make them at all. Make your own from YOUR mind, otherwise, I am going to have to flame you, and I will win.

Can I use your photos for avatars/signatures/wallpapers/etc.?
NO! NONONONONNONOOOOOOOOO!!!!

OMG YOUR DOLL LOOKS JUST LIKE MY CHARACTER--
Nice try, but no, they are mine and have always been mine. Correction, maybe YOUR character looks like mine.

How did you make that dress/shirt/skirt/pants/ect?
Usually, I make them from scratch for one specific doll, but if I need to make multiples, I get my patterns from my twin *kibblz but I end up sewing it >w<

Where did you get those eyes/wig from?
You can usually find all of that information in each of my dolls' portfolios, I update them as needed. They are easily found in my gallery.

How did you get your wig like that? I thought that it looked like _______
Well it so happens that my twin *kibblz cuts the hair as I see fit, I always cut them to style because I have a specific way I want all of my characters to look, and its very hard to find an exact wig without having to cut it or style it, you know?

Can you teach me to draw?~!
No, I believe to true way to figure out how to draw it to learn yourself, that is how I learned, if I can do it, so can you. And if you think that is a load of bull, well, I just dont want to teach anyone.

Do you take Art Requests?
No I do not, so please dont ask~!

Do you take Art Trades?
I used to with whoever wanted to with me, but I have changed it. So I will only accept Art Trades with close friends.

Do you take Art Commissions?
Not at this time, I believe my abilities are up to the par as of right now, maybe in the future when I feel more comfortable with my skill level.

Can I color your Line Arts?
NO YOU MAY NOT!! I am sorry but if I put up line art, chances are, I will not allow it, NOT EVER!!!!

Can I use your drawing as reference?
NO YOU MAY NOT!!! NO ifs, ands, or buts, about it!!! NO MEANS NO!!!

Can I use your characters/photos on my role play/story?
NO!!! I am sorry but if you are going to be seriously doing a Role Play/Story, you should be able to make your own!

Can I repost your stuff somewhere else or use it for Avs/sigs?
NO!!!

Can I use your photos for my stories? I.e. either as reference for my own characters or stories based off the photo?
No you may not!! I am sorry but these characters are near, dear, and true to my heart. They are MY characters, and MINE ONLY!!!

So here is a basic FAQ about my dolls and art, if you guys would like to see more questions and such, leave me a message, sankyu~!}

CONCLUSION: girly boys are the best

this reminds me a stamp I saw who said "If you don't know the gender supose male first" (or something like that) XD
Anyway I think it's more "frustrating" when people say "such a pretty girl" with a boy drawing than with a doll, don't know
