OSF Member Introductions . . .

Welcome aboard, Pete. Glad to see another “old timer” has decided to join us. I still occasionally pop in over at OSW (or as we call it “the Old Site”), but not as steadily. We’re always happy to see anyone”s work — regardless of genre. Feel free to post your stuff, and join in the conversation.

Hello I am Pia and I am a Phicen Figure. We are a large family of 10 people and two children.
I would like to present you here our adventures.

Hello Pia,
Have fun and welcome here in the forum.

Great to have you aboard Pia

Welcome aboard, Pia. Glad you could join us.

Thank you for the nice welcome

Hi, I'm Mark. I got into full size TPE action figures a few years ago. I also refer to them as synthetic companions (...some call them sex dolls). I'm about as creative as they come. Not always executed the best way, but I'm inventive. I've recently said goodbye to the social world and am enjoying life with my dog and synthetic companions.
I have a thing for figures of another color, making 1/1 and 1/6 scale cosplay costumes out of Bondo or Foam clay.
I enjoy different...strange...dark humor (not mean), but anything that raises one eyebrow and creates a smile.


Currently having fun making a doll girl band in my music studio. This is providing great inspiration to me.  The band is expanding. Might have to build a bigger stage. Here's 'Plastic Hunt".


One day I'll buy a better camera...but that means not buying another doll...hmmmmm
Anyway, I'm enjoying your posts.

Welcome to OSF! I look forward too seeing more of your stuff! Love the band! maybe they could some on tour with the Faithless Angels?

Welcome aboard, from one Mark to another. Girl Group looks promising.

Warm Food and Cold Beer sounds like a recipe for success.

Hey everyone it's Android 18 here,
Just recently ordered my first Tbleage figure. Cant wait to take my first step into a larger world.
I have been collecting various popculture stuff for a few a years now, Sideshow collectables statues, Barbies, Dc, Marvel, Star wars figures, Dragaon ball, Onepiece statues ect. Its so cool to find a place where i can learn and be inspired by others.

Welcome aboard, Android18. Hope you enjoy the ride, and if you’ve been lurking a bit please take care to note all the care tips required of these seamless bodies (they are neat, but can be a bit challenging when it comes to staining, temperature/humidity, and possible tearing at the joints).

Hi guys, hope your day is good.

I'm a relative newbie to 1/6 figures, altho I've known of them since many years ago. Got my first one this past April 6th and have added five more since.

I'm enjoying this forum very much and looking forward to sharing my own stuff

Welcome to the madness, Seven Pillars.

Hello everybody,

this is Kayla from Germany. Some members already know me from the German forums.  

I collect female Phicen/TBLeague, preferably the smaller bodies with younger heads. But I started with S01 and then I preferred S16/17 with adult heads. I originally come from the fashiondoll area and I only had a few Phicen on the side. But I liked the realistic look more and more - and so more and more Phicen girls and ladies came here and are now the main part of my collection.

I already have done a few experiments with the Phicen bodies because I like a variety of skin colors. It is also very important to me that the head and the body are perfectly color-matched. Maybe some people here are interested in my experiences - I already can see some related topics.

I also love taking photos (since I was a teenager) and so I can combine both hobbies well.

I hope to have a good exchange of our experiences!  

Greetings
Kayla

Yes, the combination of fashion doll clothes and Phicen bodies is definitely very interesting for me!  

Kayla, you should check out the work of DonDeG here. And his blog links. He works a lot in the realm of figures similar to the Fashion Royalty, and I think you’ll find his work most impressive. He loves for the mid-century modern era, and makes some truly impressive dioramas for his figures.

Many thanks for this hot tip - it really sounds good, that it's something interesting to me.  

Welcome Kayla! looking forward too seeing your figures

An introduction!  Greetings all.  New member.  Got into this hobby by way of scale RC cars.  I purchased a 1/6 Jeep and needed a driver...engage rabbit hole.   I am amazed at what can be done and what I have seen posted here.  I am a rank amateur so I will be listening more than talking (at least for awhile! ). Could someone suggest the best image hosting for posting to the forum.  There are several.  I do have a newly created flickr account.  Will that do?  I am mostly on Instagram (emoryrivertroll) and have a YouTube channel (slo_troll_rc) that I occasionally upload to.

I look forward to learning from the members here (I already have thru my browsing).

Cheers!

EDIT:  I figured out the image insertion thanks to a sticky!  Alas I have to wait 7 days...

Welcome aboard, Dienamic. Flickr should work, but here’s a tutorial with the forum host’s recommended image hosting:

You don't have to wait 7 days. If I recall correctly, the go around is to erase the automatically added text indicating that the image was hosted wherever. Or something like that.
