Dollfie Dream Academy @ Deviantart.com
Thu 2010/06/03 12:02 JST
Coffeebugg believes that Dollfie Dreams are being misrepresented in the deviantart community, so he has decided to start a group dedicated for Dollfie Dreams only.
Coffeebugg gives you; The DDA. Dollfie Dream Academy is open to anyone with a deviantart account and has Dollfie Dreams and/or Mini Dollfie Dreams. Customizations of Dollfies and or the similar.
Edit: Just to make things clear, #coffeebugg is not trying to make a point which has a more of a right to be called a doll, but more like he just wanted our chosen brand/design/doll type to be recognized and its thriving community to be properly represented in doll groups around the world.
I support this effort! Will soon upload some exclusive photos to DDA!
What do you mean by misrepresented? Have any examples?
Most Doll groups on deviantart don't want to have anything to do with Dollfie Dreams. And in the oft chance, the only ones that recognize dollfie dreams are the volks groups and toy/figure groups.
Not sure what the URL is because the link doesn't seem to work...
fixed.
Agreed. Groups often refuse entrance from Dollfies - seeing them as Action Figures with hair instead of Dolls. In my opinion, Dollfies give more justice to the word "doll" than the usual dolls on deviant art. They tend to be far more creepy and ugly than what "dolls" usually imply.
Quite frankly, They are more like dolls than Dollfies since Dollfies are actually classified as a hybrid of Dolls AND Figures because of their inner frame and joint system.
The creepy looking ones you refer to good sir, BJD's or Ball Jointed Dolls have long been how dolls were made ever since the mid Victorian era where in they used porcelain instead of the more common place and cheaper to manufacture Resin that are used these days.
Now I'm not trying to make a point which has a more of a right to be called a doll, but more like I just wanted our chosen brand/design/doll type to be recognized and its thriving community to be properly represented in doll groups around the world.
Thanks for the clarification. I had no idea there was a mini-war going on. Interesting, yet just goes to show how the world is right now. Not many people are accepting and form groups that don't like branching out.
Exclusive entry, only on DDA

Aww wanna join but no account XP
Make one ^^
Lol, opposite of my case. I have a neglected DA account but no DD. XD
Lol shunned by the BJDs? Such elitism...
what made you go to such an extreme? u have the bigger misunderstanding there.
Now now... let's not get ahead of ourselves. I'm not to pin it on anyone; it's just that seeing there are so many Doll groups on devart representing Luts, Leeke, SD's and other kinds/brands of dolls, there wasn't one dedicated to Dollfie Dreams.
Misinterpreted on -> " Most Doll groups on deviantart ...."
aaah... yes.. my fault there as well
I'm trying to join, hopefully I did it correct ^^;
You have a deviant account? o_O yey~! ^_^ Share your works and TAIGA~!

I will join as soon as I upload some DD picures to my deviant art account,
I don't have dollfie but I'm too poor+stupid to get 1+know about it >.<
so can I join?
If you have a deviantart account, why not. As long as you like them and/or plan on getting one in the future
sorry forgot to add that I want to get 1 but I don't know where to start
You may start here.
*browse some - look on wallet*
I guess I better start by getting some decent job.....
If you're a White Album Fan you can try for the last Pre-order, Ships out in July...this is tempting me
http://www.volks.co.jp/jp/whitealbum/en/index.html and they look spectacular imo
that also tempt me, but I don;t know the size/price on that dollfie
else I am really really poor, but if you can provide me some infos through PM (if available) I'll really appreciate it
I don't have an existing account :(
I shall create one! ^^

I want to support every thing that has to do with Dollfie Dreams, but I don´t know what Deviantart is about. What are the advantages of creating an account?
I hope not to sound way too ignorant U_U
No problem at all.
Think of Deviantart as a social networking site for artists so to speak. Getting an account there allows you to upload images, photos, literature and most recently video, preferably made by you, for you to share with members and perhaps even open opportunities for upstart artists. It's more like an online portfolio.
Thanks for the explanation, maybe I should try it
yay I joined ^o^ Good idea guys :)
