Introducing Elf Agnes

4/11/2023

11 Comments

 
My Elf Agnes from SartoriaJ arrived last week. She is on the 45 APH body, with Dew bust, pose elbow, in Peach Cream, with default makeup from SartoriaJ. I immediately dressed her in the only spare fashion size outfit I had available - the pink FID sari gown.

She is my first Fashion sized doll with elf ears...

She reminded me so much of Tauriel from the Hobbit, that I thought I'd try Isar's Elf Warrior outfit on her. then we took her to the woods for photos - between thunderstorms....

I preferred her in the pink gown, so put it back on, and Isar was only too happy to get her outfit back. I also found Agnes' eyes didn't show very well in photos, unless I Photoshopped them. Her eyes were way too dark, so I switched to another pair...which were much better....

I have no idea yet where she will fit into my doll stories, but thought she could use a friend...

I agree that she looks like she’s from the LOTR. She is quite lovely. Perhaps she has a back story with her dragon friend.

She's going to need a special Elf wardrobe - whenever I get around to it.

She is very pretty. I do like the change in eye color. Your dolls always have stunning eyes.

I have to say that I like the second outfit on her. I don't know the Hobbit story so I cannot comment on that. She does look like a warrior to me. I think that dark eyes did not carry the outfit.but the lighter eyes could.

I love the last photo. It makes me think "women have to stick together" (smile).

I just tried borrowing Isar's outfit on her for a few photos, but Isar needed it back. I don't exactly have a lot of spare outfits that size, and none of them looked good on Isar, so I gave her her outfit back.

But Agnes will get her own Elf wardrobe at some point. Probably something etherial, as well as something along the lines of Isar's outfit.

She is gorgeous, looking forward to seeing the outfits you make and the stories she tells too. Definitely a Friend to Dragons, maybe baby ones?

Thank you. It may still be a while before she gets her own outfit. I think she will need a mohair wig as well, since the one she is currently wearing, as nice as it is, is too bare in front of her ears, especially in side profile. And my dolls need to be photogenic from every angle, not just the front.

Agnes is gorgeous. I really like her as Tauriel.

She is very beautiful and has a dreamy air about her that something ethereal would look wonderful on her. Even as a warrior she would have an "other-worldly" quality about her. I'll be looking forward to seeing what you do with her.

Could be that baby dragons need a godmother too :o)

Thank you. It's hard to say why one doll just captures my attention while so many others don't. There was just something about her.

I think she will need both kinds of outfits eventually; one as an ethereal Elf who is a friend to the dragons, and then an Elf warrior outfit to go with her companion who will likely arrive some time at the end of summer.

She's exquisite and looks lovely in both costumes. And I really like her with her delightful dragon friend. I look forward to seeing how she fits into your crew and their stories!

Thanks. I do have a long term plan for her, but her companion is still many months away from arriving, and then he'll need an outfit too.

So in the meantime she will just be a friend of Saphira's, and not be appearing with all my regular characters.
