Other Hand-Made Dolls and Creatures <3

I'm thinking of creating my own species. I want to sculpt the feet/heads and needlefelt the body perhaps.

Well I couldnt resist and bought 1 egg then another one from Blitzava. I am quite excited.

I picked up a couple of new eggs myself.
Although I don't think I'll be getting any more dragons after this. I just wanted to have a couple to choose from for making Hybrids.

May I ask, how many?

I think for december I am going to get a hybrid of Akemi and hopefully one of my dragons is male x3. Id rather have that as a present. I am quite excited for my dragons to come! C:

[Arazia]

I got two.
No idea what they'll end up being.

I've already got two males (a rare Dirt and a common wave).

Oh thats awesome. If I dont end up with a male I might come to you and see if Akemi can breed with your's. c:

I really want one of those Sneks! They're adorable. So are the Imps. xD
I have a copperside dirt dragon from Blitzava- the photobucket image of her doesn't seem to be working. I think I registered her with the name, Ryuu.

I might have to go for one of those Imps...they're so cute. xD

I like the icy blue one, #2!

[HopefulMonster]

.......yeah. Cute.
Shame the Sneks came out right after I started posting pics of my Wyrms to the same doll making community W+B and I both belongs to. :/

Sorry, sore point. They make lovely stuff, but tend to piggyback off of other peoples ideas without giving credit, then claim it as original ideas. So, gonna draw my line in the sand. Would really rather not have Worms and Bones work posted about on our forums.

Case in point...

So, apparently Worms and Bones claim this is their original idea, when someone else has been making them, in a sliiiiiightly different way, for....years?

Not cool. Talented sculptors, to be sure, but I won't be buying from them.

D: That is so .. I wondered if there was a connection between Wyrms and those things... Sorry I didn't know! o-o

[HopefulMonster]

No connection as far as working together with them, no. As far as their work being...."inspired" by mine, and others? I can only go by what I see.

It is what it is. People see an idea is successful, they want to make money off it, and can't or won't come up with an original idea for themselves, because it's easier to piggyback off what someone already designed. They aren't making their Sneks breedable, or copying the game aspect, so I've left it alone. But if someone asks, or mentions the Sneks, I kinda feel like I'm not in the wrong by mentioning that we belong to a lot of the same DA doll making groups, and that their Wyrm like creatures starting showing up after I had been posting my Wyrm dolls for some time. :p
It kinda sucks, because I really wanted to like them, and their work. The sculpting is lovely. And they Do have some really pretty original designs. But seeing their Sneks and Voodoos just left a bad taste in my mouth, so I steer away.
