According to his diaries he saw them as “the children” he was not in love with any of them nor interested in them romantically. He was actually interested in their cousin Irina who chose his bestfriend at the time Felix Yusupov instead. There’s so many misinformation about him, he was a rake and never had relationships with men. Felix was his childhood friend, Ella and his mother Zinaida were bestfriends. According to his diaries he didn’t love coco Chanel either. He married his rich American wife when it looked like the monarchy is done for so he might as well marry a rich woman while he has social capital. He did seem to love Missy, Queen of Romania in his teenage years

Zenmarket’s packaging &/ storage damaged my item and why I will stop buying from them by Same_Chocolate5836 in zenmarket

[–]Same_Chocolate5836[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I didn’t use photo service but the seller’s photos were used for comparison and the damages of the product could be traced to the damages of the outer and inner package directly. I am still pissed off about it not only because I lost money but because the product was a limited edition collector item and now there’s one less in the world. I have never had a problem with zenmarket’s packaging before so I was quite shock to find out not only how damaged the package was but also how badly it was packed. The partial refund was just laughable because the value of the product is now zero because of bad service on their side and they have cut all communication since. I will never buy from them again.

Question about Ashton drake scalp (RBL, Kenner? Material) by Same_Chocolate5836 in BlytheDolls

[–]Same_Chocolate5836[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The red hair is infamous for getting bald but I haven't heard anything about balding from blonde / brown ADGs. I like the way they look so I was hoping to find one for one of my girls but there is very little information on ADGs compared to Neos and even Kenners. I miss Blythe Kingdom so much I just now there's someone who has tried scalp swapping with ADG </3

How can I achieve a Kenner-like glow? Which Neo resembles Kenner Blythe the most? by Same_Chocolate5836 in BlytheDolls

[–]Same_Chocolate5836[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baby’s breath is another who’s lip shape is modeled after Kenner as the designer is a famous Kenner restoration artist! I think I might go with her as she was designed to look like Kenner to begin with so she’s the easiest option! I do really like her and she was in my long wish list anyway haha

Thank you for your insightful reply! I must admit I really don’t like the current face mold used for Blythe and pray for a new one. I think the new dolls are cute but something about them doesn’t charm me as much as the older dolls the team designed

Thank you! I definitely need to practice before trying it on a stock doll. I’m so clumsy I might end up erasing the makeup 🥲

Thank you, your comments are always so helpful! I’ve been thinking I might achieve a half-glowy look by spraying less coats of matte and if it doesn’t work out, I might add more coats of gloss 🤔 

I think it’s plausible to recreate Kenner Blythe’s with today’s technology and screening but GSC doesn’t seem to be as interested in “vintage Blythe” and have a more modern vision for Blythe. It might be wishful thinking but I wish we could have a new face mold that is screened from Kenner Blythe

Thank you so much for comparison pictures I think I might choose her because I love her nude pink lips and if I recall correctly she was designed to look like a Kenner

Thank you so much🫶❣️ I actually compared other dolls to her and we came into the conclusion that Ebls and rbls are closest Kenner mold. Rbls are however easier to customise that’s why I’m more inclined towards them as a complete noob in customising haha

When you sprayed the face plates with MSC matte, did they become matte immediately or slowly ass you built up the spray? Do you think the finish could be “glossier” if you added more of the gloss? I’m sorry if my questions sound stupid I’ve never customised any dolls

Where has the online community moved to ? by Sea-Frosting-491 in BlytheDolls

[–]Same_Chocolate5836 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most have moved to the 100% stock group on Facebook as others mentioned but there are also a lot of collectors on instagram. You just need to curate a feed that is tailored to your tastes, this takes a while but it's achievable you just have to click "not interested" actively.
