Long time, no post. I hope to remedy that in 2024, and become more active on my blogs again. Today was a first step. I took some time to play a bit with a couple of my Iple FID's today, for the first time in quite a while. We were talking about knits for dolls on Resin Antics, one of the Doll Forums I hang out on, and it spurred me to get out this knit set I purchased a long time ago for my CED dolls actually, out and try it on my FID's. Maeve (my FID Mari) was happy to model. She is wearing a custom wig I had ordered for her from Chewin that I hadn't gotten around to photographing yet.
Raccoon Dolls, Iple FID and SartoriaJ mini's in their "everyday" lives. I like to think of my dolls in this size as dolls in the stories I tell in my head, who can fit into any role available to them. Most of my dolls this size are typically used in my "In the Glade" world (linked in sidebar). This blog gives me a chance to do something different with them, and dress them in contemporary clothing. I do have some "superernatural" characters here that are more prominent here than in the Glade

Winter Knits
I couldn't leave the men out of playtime. While I didn't succumb to the temptation to order a new doll from Iplehouse during their holiday sale in 2023, I did decide to get this outfit for my FID men that I had been eyeing since it was 30% off. Declan (FID Leonard) agreed to model for me.
I imagine the coat would fit a tad more comfortably on the model body. Declan has the muscle body, but it still works. The sleeves of the turtleneck bunched up a bit, and that hindered the fit across the shoulders as well. I think it still looks great on him, and am happy with my purchase.
And one last shot of Declan, as Leonard's sculpt is one of my favorites.
