Love posing tbleague

Recently started to pose my tbleague again after after having it sit on my bookshelf for the longest time and while the shoulders are a pain in the ass to work with I can usually manage to position her in great poses most of the time. Also I'm impressed with how durable tbleagues are after being worried with concerning reviews, not that their experience is false but mine has been pleasent for the most part. I had black electrical tape on her for many months to size down her bust and the same navy blue shirt from the photo under a hoodie. Once I removed both there was sticky residue from the tape and markings from the shirt. I decided to wash it thoroughly with dawn dish soap avoiding getting any water inside/on the metal skeleton. Once patted dry I applied a generous amount of baking soda and it was nearly good as new aside from some rough spots on one of the nipples. Put her in one of the barbie jumpsuits I had lying around with her bare arms exposed and you could never tell she had a dark tshirt on before. I did put the tshirt back on eventually since I prefer casual clothes more, but yeah I'm impressed.

Very nice! It does take time to learn o pose our little friends convincingly, but it's not impossible.

Beautiful poses indeed! I love posing them, too, especially after the frustrations with other brands. I'm done with experiments and am sticking to TBL for bodies.

The pose on the baae of the lamp is excellent!

I've had frustrations with posing the shoulders as well, but someone posted tips on how to get them back into place if they seem 'jammed' and it did help. I can't remember which post it was now, though (if anyone else remembers, feel free to link it here).

Glad your figure cleaned up ok from the tape residue. : )

You've certainly achieved some very nice poses. And the relative realism is always such a bonus.
Sky, are you thinking of this:

Thank you!  

Welcome, Sky. Heads coming up.

Very nice and very simple poses too, it's always great when you manage to get them to sit right.

Thanks for the compliments everyone. Also thanks Guber for linking that posing guide. It will help unfuggle the shoulders if I end up locking them again

I find them a joy to pose after recently buying some Fashion Royalty dolls. Taking those dolls photos is so frustrating in comparison!! I like that you chose an interesting pose that isn't static. That takes a good imagination, kudos!
