| Thanks for the praise, Tymber! It is up to you if you want to let the image inspire your grab bags...but if it does that's super! I got inspired to try to doll her some more on two more bases, the Xgirl one you like and the Perfect Princess (both on dolldivine):   The outfit has slight variations...but the same idea of strappy clothing in Moonshade's colors, with a berry-colored necklace ala Crescent. You didn't say if you liked my choices (some or any ones in particular that are ok or not so much), so I hope the dollz are in keeping with your Foxhair parent idea. I know I take enormous liberties in giving YOUR characters a look at all. So I will always take any feedback you care to give and if possible change the images. Feel free to offer exact ideas or make requests. Of course that goes for any doll of your characters...have you looked at the gathered ones and the text descriptions for them in my thread on the dolling forum? I'd love your input if you have. Again, thanks for the freedom you've allowed in playing. I dig making elves have a visual! --NS | |

| You've put a lot of thought in Clouddreamer. The continuing swraps and stripes a a very characteristic style - great idea to mirror it in her hairdo as well. I love the berry colors for he, close enough to Moonshade's color scheme to spark the association, different enough to avoid a "carbbon copy". The Crescent necklace is such a lovely touch. I love the subtle little details like headband, feather adornement and knife you've added, Nightsea, and the wide confident smile. Last not least absolute natural hand edit! Those many ways and reasons to doll, Nightsea ... for me they are manifold variations of the two basic ways I found for myself. My way ... many other ways and thoughts and reasons ... Vive la différence!  OMG! More Clouddreamer ... awesome! As I said - distinctive, absolutely recognizable style. Absolutely opposing bases yet both X-Girl and Disney Princess are Clouddreamer without doubt. A strong character! You gave her a visible face, even life ... now I'm sorry she is dead. ___________________________________________________  Indem du etwas tust, das dir oder jemand anderem gefällt, erschaffst du bereits einen Wert. | |

Well, I am LOVING these! LOVING them! You can't ask me to say what I don't like! It's like discussing what I don't like about my own child! (I don't have a child, but these are children of my imagination - giving amazing life, by your time and talent!) ___________________________________________________ Signature image by Embala. <3 | |

| I'm so glad you enjoy these images, Tymber! And thanks for the thoughtful comments, Embala! Your feedback always makes me glad I put in those little details because I know someone will see them! So now that Clouddreamer is designed visually, I used the official Avatar Maker at EQ (and then edited to get more choices of course...like one with necklace and one without) and also the Lunaii base cause it is just cute:    Smiles like Clouddreamer (also picked her wide smile to go with her name...a dreamer should smile I think!), --Nightsea | |

| You've made best use of the EQ Avatar maker, Nightsea! I don't know the maker well enough to know where you've recombined or hand edited the options. Pretty sure you gave Clouddreamer the special braids *loves* and the bright smile. I'm amazed how you made her SHINE.
The Lunaii version is a cutie. I love that you never forget to add the berry beads necklace.

| Thanks! Here's some attempts at Embala:   I made the Two Moons background to show why her ears are pointy. She's on Abode! Do you have an elf character I could try, G0lden? --Nightsea | |

| I loved Embala with the crescent moons at first sight.  With your explanation it's even more precious - so thoughtful! The star-spangled space and the blue eyebrows are a nice touch. The slightly turquoise eyes suit her. I should define her eyes as colorchanging - from ice blue to sky blue to sea turquoise ...  Thank you for those awesome gifts, Nightsea! ___________________________________________________ Indem du etwas tust, das dir oder jemand anderem gefällt, erschaffst du bereits einen Wert. | |

| No surprise, that though Clouddreamer in my stories, has already died; your dolls have given her new life and she was the main center piece (along with Foxhair, her daughter) of the latest (and probably one of the longest!) grab bags I've done - entirely dedicated to you Nightsea, and the wonderful work you do bringing my characters to life - and making my writing far more emotional for me, now that I see their faces more clearly. Thank you for all you do. You're amazing. You're talented. And I am glad to have met you! https://fathertreeholt.forumotion.com/t300p30-grab-bag-august-2015#10765___________________________________________________ Signature image by Embala. <3 | |

| Love the new one on Embala, Nightsea. I like the second one best, but both are fantastic.
This is for a character that I hope to begin writing on in the near future.
Basic idea. Female. Maintains a human form. but not human, more of a being that is immortal. She would be petite with auburn hair with gray eyes. She also has a bit of a fuller figure.
Let's see she can more through the trees with the ease of a wood elf and well as ride a horse. So we would need clothes that are easy to move in as well as blend in with the environment.
For weapons a long bow, short sword or knives.
Hope that helps.

| The family tree turned out great, Tynami!. Makes it easy to keep track on your increasing cast. *blinks* ... O.O thought that Blomstre was adopted, too ... *is corrected* Cute Wayuki base The tiny dolls are adorable - so detailed and distinct. *bows* Masterly as usual, Tynami. ___________________________________________________ Indem du etwas tust, das dir oder jemand anderem gefällt, erschaffst du bereits einen Wert. | |

I can't remember, but at one time she may have been. Once I added in Marcenia with Ravendusk she seemed the perfect child of the two considering he's so woodsy and she's a tigerelf. I'm in the middle of making allllll of my characters on this base, including Change's other names. All the minis I've made for others are now here: http://katslegends.x10host.com/index.html and as soon as I get this set done I'll be adding all these to my OC Sprite page (they're on my main sprite page right now with the elfquest and such, but will be on their own page next update so I can load it easier) | |

| Wow I got a peek at the page you made for the dollz I've made for your characters, katcombs! It is cool to see them collected...who knew I made so many over the years? I'd like to collect them into my threads here...but so time consuming to link...I haven't even found all the images of my own characters again yet! On that note...I made a new Softfeather:  --NS | |

| WOW! Where have you found this "High One" base? *blinks* Simply made for tall sleek elves ... minus the additional digits. ^^ I love the contrast of silky pants and fluffy feather boots. The belt adds movement and completes softfeather's typical look. Great hand edits, Nightsea. I'd take a bet you have changed eyes and cheekbones as well. Awww... You'v emade such a wonderful page with my gift dollz, Tynami.  The variety, quality and sheer amount of Tynami dollz made by Nightsea is overwhelming. Not to mention your own works ... I could get lost in those files. ___________________________________________________ Indem du etwas tust, das dir oder jemand anderem gefällt, erschaffst du bereits einen Wert. | |

| Sadly, Embala, I can no longer find the exact base I used on my last Softfeather. I did indeed edit the fingers and I made the head larger to fit elf-ness. If I ever do find the base I'll post the link. I believe it was hosted on deviantart, but HOURS of searching there has had no luck. I tried to post a rant in the issue 11 thread...but somehow it got deleted. It's just as well. To calm myself and try to remain EQ positive I've decided to make some dolls. The first two are of Vaeri's character because she is so pretty and I saw her avatar in the issue 11 thread:   first base = Snow Queen second =Sailor Senshi version 3 And a Nightsea on the Sailor base, since that was a new base for me:  --Nightsea | |

| Awww... I'm sorry you've lost that base for Softfeather, mostly because of you, Nightsea! *hugs* You could have done more great guys on it! Speaking about great ... Vaeri turned out wonderful on the Frozen base, totally the soft timid Sunvillager. Laborious details with all her jewelry, well worth the effort. Sailor Senshi illustrates her inner strength, lovely with a feisty touch. Once again you nailed her general look and all the specific detail. Your Nightsea is ravashing! Figure-flattering choices, fitting top additions and awesome face edits! So absolutely Nightsea - the face alone would identify her. Oh - and I love your ear ring creation. ___________________________________________________ Indem du etwas tust, das dir oder jemand anderem gefällt, erschaffst du bereits einen Wert. | |

| Thanks for the positive and speedy feedback! As always I adore reading your comments because I know someone looks so closely at my efforts and your keen eyes and kind heart make my day. This maker has awsome potential...so here's the rest of my personal cast:    I'm not sure if I'll get more time...but this maker would be one I'd recommend to other dollers... it is fun and even has guys and animals as well as good drag and drops, & elf ears too! Happy, --Nightsea | |

| WOW! Vytha is on a par with Nightsea! And I'm pretty sure you've made the ears look elfquesty in this case.
Your guys are fab, Nightsea. The cape you added to Wavecather's "dry-look" is a win. It makes his look more memorable and shows that he like pretty things. You should keep this "water-jewel"! Softfeather is ready for a celebration, is he? I like how you 've made his feather collar, the fluffy boots and his belt pattern. Obligatory finger and toe edits, ear corrections and an eye treatment for Softfeather ... very expressive.
The bond dolfin and the bird companion ar a win.
I hope you will find time soon to return to dolling - maybe with this maker.
The maker is great and you've made best use of it. ___________________________________________________ Indem du etwas tust, das dir oder jemand anderem gefällt, erschaffst du bereits einen Wert. | |
