Elfquest Dolling Thread

Time for canon girls again. Weeeell ... as mentioned above this maker does not allow many variations and details unless you decide on massive editing. Nevertheless the "Fortune teller" captured my attention. The ""no edits" premise has its own challenge.

I got hooked and tried to picture as many girls as possible - create a recognizable degree of resemblance - an overall appearance that might ring a bell. I'll post what I have in groups that can support your imagination.


An easy one first "We are family!"

I must be flexible and "creative" with costume choice and hair-do. More than once there will be a massive stretch. I hope you'll be able to capture the intention and have fun!

Winnostar returns

2 more Winnostars plus 1 Winterleaf

Nice Winnostar ... the dreamy portrait is endearing. Kudos for the wide variety of your creations, Prism. I love Winterleaf - the mothlike fan is a perfect application.


Missing one of your girls, Kat? Here she is ...

Change
RinmaruGames - Fortune Teller

A bunch of "Embala" again ... What IF Embala would be born as ...

Wolfrider

Glider

Sunfolk

Go-Back

Wavedancer

and "real" Merbala with a mertail ... this skirt is the best I can use to mimic it

*I'll be back to this in about a week*

I'm a little behind, but enjoying a day off... hopefully I'll get some girls done today.

Winterleaf if one of my faves of Prism's elves too, she turned out so amazing. Atlantis is so beautiful! I just love how her colors blend. LEETAH! I just adore Leetah and all the versions fit perfectly.

The tea does fit her perfectly, and I really like the gold in her bow... very fitting She's always been a delicate character to me, like porcelain. Kinda reminds me of Rainsong in personality.

Tanree's colors are just right. I love the various outfits and the last one kinda reminds me of Meg from Hercules, hehe... just the disgusted/bored look.

Is that Brownberry? Bones are very fitting. The Nightfall is instantly recognizable, I always have trouble if I want to make her blond or brunette. I like how you did the necklace. Adorable Tyleet, hehe. The updo is fitting I think since she's always studying new things.

Winnostar! So cute!

That Change, hehe. That is SOOOOO her. One thing I always try to get in her dollmaker pics are the crisscross pics, you've caught them too. I just love her! *pouncehugs* That expression is priceless, like I've got something naughty planned.

The What If Embalas are so sweet. I really need to do a set of those... maybe that's what I'll start on today to get me going. Always delightful to see Merbala.

Not sure if I posted these two pics...



Maker: Covergirls Dress Up Game

These turned out a bit different than I thought..

 Wolfrider
 Glider
Sun FolkGo-Back with an ice ball
 Very different version of her Wavedancer self, but I really like this one too.

Great dollz, Kat! I love to see "Tynami of all tribes" - it's a colorful pleasure! I'll be back for a second look individual comments after a week's break!

*hopes to see more additions when I'll return*

1Winterleaf,1 tipsy Moonshine and one of Moonshine,Tylafey&Dreamberry

Thanks for the detailed and nice comments, Kat. Ribbon is still a fairly unfamiliar for me. Delicate and porcellaine-like ... sounds like I've got her character right. ^^ I've tried to make Change in the style I remember best - the green/brown travelling outfit with the coat. It's a pity that thre are no drop-ins to decorate her tresses.

Yes, she's supposed to be Brownberry. I've decided to use the coloring from my first encounter in the German OQ issues - close to the Donning coloring. Nightfall was an easy catch - red pants again for my oldest memories. I'd prefer her in a dark honey blonde - without editing options I tend to see her as a blonde (well - she is blonde in FQ). I'm very pleased that Tyleet turned out believable - I had to be very creative with her hairdo.

What-If ... it was fun to explore Embala from a different angle. WR works as a fitting "standard Abode" version, too. I wasn't surprised that the BM inkarnation shows a close alikeness with Granada. I like that the SE maiden has reminiscences of Savah. And the GB warrior - well, it could have been somewhen. ^^
Merbala is basically the WD appearance of Embala - both in legged and mertail form. *sigh* Each time I doll her I remember Moonmoss ... *is missing her*

The covergirls are awesome, Kat! It's great to see your girls in modern style and lively poses. Very different - and very much themselves. I'm surprise how well the shortcut suits Ribbon. Tywaves is dancing - this pose and the skirt are perfect. My "classic" Change - of course with cross lacings. And Tynami tries more green - and mor clothing in gerneral. XD I love how you've included the red part and the arm wraps.

And you've made Tynami of all tribes! She looks so charming and mischieveous with the freckles and jaunty expression. A mix of Pike and Nightfall with a touch of Freetouch. ^^
She turned out fantastic in black and white for Blue Mountain! Her red mane is a lively contrats - gives me the impression that Winnowill has a determined adversary here!
Beautiful sunmaiden with an attitude. ^^ And a fierce warrior in greens and brown - Change's colors suit her. Love the "snowball"!
Her WD outfit works well - she can drop the pareo any time and dive whith the mini skirt only.


Have you expected this one?

Ilyian


(back for Prism's batch tomorrow)

Oh wow!!! I keep forgetting about Ilyian and she was one of the first 3 I ever made... she turned out amazing and the closed eyes are very fitting for this peaceful mystic. I love her!

@Prism I'm really loving the Winterleaf ones and Moonshine is so adorable! Lots of cuteness!

*chuckles* I love it when a surprise works as it should. ^^ And I love to doll the old ones which I remember without reference, Kat.

A simple Winterleaf in brown and grey. Simply working. I love the color shades in her hair. Good job!
Moonshine was one of your first and most memorable ones for me. And this Missangest version turned out especially funny and cute. You truely have a knack for this maker, Prism.
And one more on the Sailor maker - the matching style and coloring is amazing. Fresh Dreamberry is always a treat. Just my colors - fresh and harmonic contrasts and appetizing. ^^ Last not least Tylafey - live the bi-colored bubbly hair!


Looks like I have a new girl ...

Cajol


RinmaruGames - Fortune Teller

She wouldn't mind a bare chest but insists on rich jewelry and necklace(s) especially. And she likes her head scarf with the flowers. Not sure where Cajol will fit in ... but she wanted to be born.

Another canon batch - family again. You'll hardly have problems to recognize one






RinmaruGames - Fortune Teller

3 of my favorite gals  Love the new pics!!

Cajol is a delightful addition!

2 new Winterleaf. On the other one,probably all 4 original tribes as well,just more outgoing.

*loves to see more Winterleaf* The necklace on the Arabian one is a very attractive addition! Excellent idea and for the mermaid skirt, Prism - worked aut very well!
The new one has detailed and vivid clothing desigh and nice hair. *is biased here ^^* she looking a bit dead with this greyish-green skin but she seems to be a friendly one.

What does "On the other one,probably all 4 original tribes as well,just more outgoing." mean?


I've hoped you would recognize the daughters, Kat. In fact I was surprised how well Crescent worked for me when she was finished. Freetouch's last style from FQ looked like a "makable" costume for her as well. Of course I had to be creative with her hairdo. And Moonshade herself ... just asked her what she would choose from those options. ^^

Cajol thanks for your kind welcome.


Must stick with canon girls for now. Here you go ...






RinmaruGames - Fortune Teller

Those sunmaidens are dear to our lifebearer ...

The new one is a little wilder,merrier and more mischievous/festive. She goes with the flow and is used to strange weirdness.

In other words,she's definitely up for the orgies,but can hold her own in a fight and has some magic.

Love the new additions!

Thank you, Kat!

I wonder ... were the girl's recognizable? Or more likely - guessable? Imaginable?
Rainsong was clear for me ... and there was definitely a connection with your Ribbon in my choices. ^^
Bethia - honestly ... I was not aware that she shares her mother-in-laws preference for a cup of coffee. ^^ I could hardly capture more than her colors. Serrin on the other hand was an easy catch.

Should I go on? As long as it's entertaining I'll add more - much more. Hmmm... maybe someone want to see a speciel one?

When I first saw Rainsong I thought of Newstar, but then realized it was Rainsong. Bethia was immediate, I just love that gal. At first I thought Serrin was Malen, but realized her hair was PERFECT for Serrin.

I'd love to see more, I just adore each of them!

Hmm... haven't made any new canon lately, working on Emmalina sprites, I'm upto... 20 so far. Let's see who pops up when I go into the fortune teller...
Hawk

Thank you for the praise, Kat. Ah well ... Rainsong without her hat is not really Rainsong.   But her look had to be enough for the purpose. ^^ I'm glad Serrin got her moment in the lime light - she's overlooked too often.
Of course I'll post more - it was fun to make the dollz. It is great to share them and know they are welcome. And - maybe the best of it: it inspires you to post more dollz here, too!

Hawk seems to be always close to your mind, Kat. She looks like a charming tomboy ... and if you cannot get a hawk earring for her she'll get a shiny one. ^^


Another family group      






RinmaruGames - Fortune Teller

Korafay so doesn't agree with her hairdo! XD

Love these gals!! Joyleaf I always love cause she had such a big influence on how I made Tynami. And Ember, EEEEK!!! I just love her! She does look really good in mint  Korafay doesn't look too happy, but her hair does look adorable! Such a cutie!

*hugs and kisses* Thanks so much, Kat.

Hair is always a problem with a "NO edits" policy. It's a nice little challenge, tho. I'm learning to make compromises or going for other "in-character" options to catch the style.
There was this dress for Ember at the beginning of FQ - just had to try those colors!
Korafay should look happy - at least I've made up my mind to unite her with the family at all! ^^


The Magical Elf maker is sort of the "official" medium for my girls. And as Cajol wants to live ... here she is again.


Magical Elf

The rasta-like braids and headscarf from the Fortune Teller are still her generic look. Let's say she was disrupted while braiding. ^^
