Dollieh Sanctuary

Merry Christmas to all, and to myself as well! i was able to get this little sweetie of a Holy Warrior for myself for X-mas!!

she comes from a fellow Anime doll enthusiast on another forum i frequent. she has a lovely custom face-up
and a blouse/skirt/tights/boots outfit from the Anime that wasn't originally included with this doll.

she will be coming my way from Europe after Christmas, so stay tuned...

finally came (1/6/16) and my first thought was try the outfit on Belldandy, which looks... UNEXPECTEDLY AMAZING!!!

what a Beautiful, Noble Crusader♥

That is a really great outfit!

and it looks even better on this Little Lady... IMO at least; viewtopic.php?f=6&t=11508

Your Saber is pretty cute, though the face looks closer to the Studio DEEN version than the Takeuchi artwork (or of course, the Ufotable design, which it probably predates significantly). I'm impressed by all the details on her outfit, especially given her scale. Is her armor plastic or metal? Excalibur in particular looks like it's made out of metal, which is pretty cool. I'm also a little curious about her body. I'm assuming it's just the normal 27cm Obitsu? She looks a bit smaller than that.

Could you maybe take some pictures of the blue skirt that she comes with, specifically from the back and how it's constructed? I have the 50cm Azone Saber, and I'd like to make a skirt that matches her casual outfit. I'm not a huge fan of the brown outfit from the pool date, as I don't think the color suits her as well as the blue and white one, but I'd appreciate more pictures of it, too.

I have this Saber, too (as well as the rooted-hair version and the new Medicom ones), and all the armor pieces are die-cast metal. They are actually very nice, though mine's boots have come apart (the glue is just too old). She is on the standard 27cm obitsu body.
I think the casual outfit Tasuke has is a custom one? I have the rooted-hair Azone Saber and the casual outfit she came with isn't near that nice (Taiga Dojo Special Clothes is what she was released as... I think?). The back on mine has the lace-up detail and a velcro split on the side (tiny lacing is tiny and impractical).
I can dig out mine as well, if you'd like Tira-chan, and take pictures.... Since Medicom Saber and Rin came out, the Azone versions got boxed back up.

the plates on my set of boots began falling off as well. i used LOCTITE "CONTROL GEL" (blue cap bottle)
super glue to get them back in place. this adhesive does not "frost" like the regular cynoacrylate adhesives do...

Ah, okay, is that how they did it? I figured it would be something like that, since the Dollfie Dream Saber's skirt also has a side zipper. I'd kind of like mine to actually have working laces, but you're right that it's not very practical. I can't imagine getting that to work at 1/6th scale! I'd love to see pictures of any of your Fate dolls, but don't inconvenience yourself too much for them.

I meant the casual skirt she's wearing in the first pictures you posted of her, sorry for the confusion. Though I think the description ShadowKat gave will work. Thanks for your help!

OK, it is pretty well made, with an actual zipper in place in all,
only real issue is that said zipper kind of makes it a little excessively bulky and ill fitting IMO;

That's very helpful! Thank you for the pictures!
