I wonder what sort of dolls? Like Barbie (with cloth gowns) or like Polly Pocket (with soft plastic clothes)?

I'm thankful for any sort of Leia/Padme line but I really hope they look pretty and aren't overly 'cutesy', you know?
argh. Why can't Hasbro just make regular action figures of Padme in her various costumes? (Yes, I am a complainer on this issue. tongue )

If anyone here remembers and misses the doll message board that Erika (PadmeLeiaJaina) had set up that unfortunately was closed down a few months ago, I've started up a new one! Custom Dolls Message Board is now open, so please come! Join! Post! I want to make it as fun a place to hang out as the old boards were. Also, feel free to invite other doll lovers that you know of who don't post here. And please e-mail or pm me any suggestions you might have for improvement, because I'm sure I could use a lot of that! I'm very new at this, but it's going to be fun. I can tell.

Also, if anyone knows how to get ahold of Naboo_Priestess, she used to post there a lot and does such amazing work, I would love to have her at the new board. But I think her website is still down so I don't know how to get in touch with her.

do post the link Ame_V when you get the new site up!
I loved Erika's doll boards, but I'm on so many forums currently as it is that its difficult finding time for more sad

As for Naboo_Priestess, I haven't been able to get ahold of her at all. Keep trying I will, but I don't know how it will go.

Good luck with the forums!!!

So, what's everybody up to?

This isn't SW, but I think I've decided on sewing little plush Harry Potter dolls, sort of like this type of doll:

Note: This is not my auction, or my doll. I have one just like it, but this one isn't mine. wink

If I like the way my dolls come out, I may try to make some Padme ones. Who knows!

I hadn't! Very interesting. I wonder why they made her face "realistic" instead of cartoony?

I've actually been working on a version of this costume for a custom order, a My Scene partial repaint:



I still need to make the boots and belt, and the second glove. tongue

Hello everyone -- I have been looking through this thread, and I have enjoyed seeing everyone's dolls! Sorry if this is a question that has been answered (if so, I missed it) -- but does anyone know of any SW doll clothing patterns online?

Thanks for any information, and have fun with your dolls!

Dally

Hi xMichellex, do you mean a doll-sized version or a you-sized version?

There is a thread on the Water gown here:
