Happyknot, I love the eyes that are on that doll right now! they are so pretty and ethereal.
Is that the only wig you got from them? I didn't try a grey one. I don't even remember seeing a longer grey one there actually.

mica were you asking about the Suntek wigs? Or the Kemper wigs?
My Kemper order is due Tuesday, so I'll let you know about those then.

With the Suntek wigs though, I wrote earlier in the thread about them a bit, the straight wigs are very soft and silky and the pink and black colors are nice and shiny. The blonde ones are a bit dull in color, not shiny, but still nice.

The wavy 1/4 brown and blue wigs are beautiful! My Echo has been wearing the brown one for a few days now and I've been handling her while sewing a dress for her and she's spent a bit of time sitting by a fan, but the hair is still in good shape, so it's not frizzing too easily.

Here's the pics that I have of Suntek wigs on my doll:

It is the only wig I bought. This is the wig as listed in the Suntek store. In the pictures the bangs are slightly curled under and perfectly scissored. The hair also looks silkier. In person the hair is more of a matte color (I really like it though) and the back matches the pictures but the bangs are pretty bad.

I will say again that the head cap is top quality. There is even a bit of "skin" at the top where the hair whorl is. This fits 5-6 head perfectly. I won't say it's a total loss if I can manage to fix it.

p.s You are making me want an Obitsu. I love the hips on that body!

~*~

As for her eyes - I'm a sucker for "blind" eyes. These were mailed to me by mistake by Captured in Glass (I highly recommend!) and they let me keep them when they sent me the color I actually ordered. While I like the look, I actually want her to have gray eyes in the same style. She's my little monochrome doll. I felt like I had to do it at least once *laughs* - she even has a gray dress somewhere. I forget where I put it. Out of all my dolls I think this one expresses a part of me the most.

aaah, that's why i didn't see it, because I only looked at 1/3 and 1/4 stuff. I didn't look at 1/6th.
Sounds like that grey is like the blonde wigs, a bit dull and non-shiny.

Wrote down the eye place to check out later, thanks for the info!

hehe I've been loving Echo more and more as I've been crafting for her. I only thought of her as a model when she first arrived and was not sure what to think because I didn't realize the torso would be so... empty? but once I painted her and gave her a face up I started to become more attached.

I just ordered a pair or 1/3 and a pair of 1/4 doll shoes, so I'll give my critique when they arrive.

I just noticed that I have one of the sets of "8 Pcs Round Acrylic Doll Eyes Eyeballs 14mm" that I got off of ebay. It seems it was ordered through someone else, but it is the exact same set, a random set of acrylic eyes for a really good price. And they are really nice quality too. I have them in one of my dolls. I got them for a different doll, but I didn't get the color I wanted in the set. But the price of those 4 pairs was the same cost as getting a single pair in the color I wanted anyway, so I figured I might as well try.

As someone who almost always buys glass instead, I really recommend them.

My Suntek order just arrived, except one item that they'd ship later because they didn't have it in stock. I ordered a little sofa, a tiny umbrella and 4 rings (bracelets for Jade). The umbrella arrived slightly "broken" but I could just push one of the pins back in and now it's working just fine ^^. Overall I'm happy and I especially like their service and communication.

So... they are also on ebay, although their shop there is "The Style Home". They have a bunch negative feedback for sending trees for model train villages in envelopes not boxes and the trees got squished flat in the mail......

<_< I ordered some doll eyes from them anyways, since I've never had a problem with those being squished in the mail.
I have so many dolls that I can't fit all their names in my signature anymore. @__@

I've had 3 orders so far arrive without incident.
Have a 4th small one on the way right now.
Sounds like it would be a good idea to stay away from things that could get squished though I suppose in light of those reviews.

I just got my shipping notice from Suntek, so we shall see. Could be 2 weeks before they arrive, though.
