30 Day BJD Meme Day 18

30 Day BJD Meme

Day 18: Do you have a favorite company?

Despite their US site having gone wonky, my favorite is probably Volks. They may not be the amazingly engineered Fairyland super poseable dolls, but they are sturdy, stand rock solid, and they have a pleasant heft to them. Additionally even a very loosely strung doll is capable of holding most poses because of the way Volks has designed their bodies.

The only body I really don't like is the MSD swarrico body, which Amelia has. I feel that it poses in a slightly inferior way to the standard MSD body, and what it gains in the "cute sit" ability, it loses in general poseability. I also think that Volks dolls are just plain prettier in person than they can ever be in photos. Dolls I would have never thought I would like are stunning in person, even unpainted, and that is a HUGE deal for me.

I don't have a photo of ALL the Volks dolls together but I think I have one of all the Volks MSDs including Ringo's Ken.

About Me

My photo
I'm Rory or Rorek in most places. I design, sew, and craft, primarily for my Asian Ball-Jointed Dolls. I also dabble in interior design, but I'm a little out of practice.

I post about the things I enjoy, which are sewing, photographing my dolls, designing new outfits, knitting, which I started in September of 2008, thanks to my Mom, and occasionally drawing, or painting.

I also post about Life Events and how they affect me and those that I love.

Currently I am living in DFW, Texas in the USA and working towards a degree in Theology.
