I’ve now had my Yui Dollfie Dream for 1 week and I can’t believe I’ve only posted a handful of preview images from the day I received her! Let’s fix that. Here are lots of pretty pictures of DD Yui ^^
Hit the jump for more Yui moe overload \^^/
Yui wouldn’t be complete without her guitar/companion Gita so of course it was included by Volks ^^
She looks quite good with it, doesn’t she? ^^
Volks also provided a nice quality guitar case for Gita. It’s made out of some sort of imitation leather and has a nice feel to it.
Quite a sunny morning. It’s blinding poor Yui >_<
Experimenting with lighting. This photo was illuminated by only a single candle. Kind of silly ^^;
The next day, Yui checks the day’s weather. Looks good, perhaps we should go out today? :)
“I caught a fish ‘this big’! Really!”
“Hey, hey! I want to go outside and play! Will you come with me?”
“You’re not going to make me beg, are you?”
I finally agreed to take Yui out since it was a nice, sunny day. But first we had to change into some more Spring-like clothes. Summer school uniform!
So sunny today! Yui insisted we stop and look at the newly blossomed tulips.
Ah, Spring-time is refreshing!
(These flowers were right outside of my apartment complex where many people pass by. Posing a doll in this high traffic area was a bit embarrassing xD)
We decided to head to somewhere quieter and more peaceful. Yui found some wild flowers that she took a liking to.
Ah, time for a break. This looks like a good spot to rest.
Super cute Yui pose #3
She looks so happy and relaxed. I’m jealous!
“This is for poking people that make me mad!”
Time to head back home! This is my current low-tech method of transporting Yui. I need a proper carrying case!
Phew, finally back home.
Here Yui is trying on a new outfit. This is my first non-Volks outfit.
“kawaii deshou?”
It is a Dollmore outfit which I acquired from Ultimaknight who was selling it.
It also looks pretty cute from the side :)
Sadly, the outfit, particularly the top, is a bit big for Yui’s petite physique. Still, it looks pretty good.
These socks are part of Yui’s default school uniform, but I like them a lot. Very cute and are made of soft material.
This is a rather long post, isn’t it? >_< Don’t worry, we’re nearly finished! ^^
Yui catching up on the new season of K-ON!!.
“Hey, that’s me!”
That’s all for now! I absolutely definitely certainly will be posting more Yui photos later. Expect to see more of her on my blog in the future!
Yui looks quite nice, if I ever get another DD I kinda want to get her now.
.-= Miette-chan´s last post… Remember My Dollfie Musume? =-.
She would be a good second DD ^^
Nice photos, Yui looks very cute, the more photos I see of her the more I do think she came out much better than Mio. ^^
.-= Smithy´s last post… After the rain =-.
So, you’re going to get Yui then? Or will it be Yoko? You need to make up your mind! ;)
I like the shots as well and with the different outfits! She looks like she had fun with all the shooting you did with her.
OMG ~ Was that one shot without panties (candle experiment)?
.-= bluedrakon´s last post… Manga Haul =-.
Glad you like them. Yui and I both had a lot of fun taking the photos ^^
And no, she *is* wearing pantsu in all the shots. Though does like she is going nopan xD
I kind of like the candle experiment.
.-= mefloraine´s last post… Kaichou wa Maid-sama, anyone? =-.
Need to experiment more with lighting ^^
Nice Photos. it was different to see yui in the blue outfit.
but cool. haha love the low tech method XD but at least shes comfortable,
.-= Fabrice´s last post… On Order: Kotobukiya Hitagi Senjogahara =-.
I plan on providing Yui with more outfits in the future. I might spoil her a bit ^^;
I think she enjoyed the ride in the towel. She was all snug and comfy xD
I’m guilty of being reminded of Aldora from Queen’s Blade by http://coolandspicy.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/dollfie-yui-20.jpg …
It occurred to me that this is how Yui would look if her body were proportionate – very interesting.
The Dollmore oufit is great; I’m for anything with a lot of buckles and belts and buttons.
.-= Ningyo´s last post… The Male Spearheads of the Art =-.
Heh, I realized after I returned home that the positioning in that shot was a off ^^; I was wondering who would mention it first xD
Yeah, Dollfies are nicely proportioned. Not perfectly realistic, but given that Yui came from an anime/manga, this is probably the most accurate representation of her that you can get. As a fan, that’s why I like DDs :)
Glad you like the Dollmore outfit. I tend to like belts and buckles too ^^
可愛いね ^^ i think one of the reasons i’ll never make the dollfie plunge is that i’d have no idea how to style her hair and such ^^; glad folks like you have that ability and can provide nice pics ^^
looks like you’ve already made quite a bit of progress on the outfit front… two seifuku & shifuku! ^^ grats on the get!
.-= meronpan´s last post… フランドール・スカーレット ~ Flandre Scarlet =-.
Well, I’m not great at styling hair either but it’s not that bad with Dollfie wigs ^^. Yui’s came pre-styled though it was a mess from being in the box so I had to re-do the hair clips >_< To me, DDs are not so far separated from PCV figure collecting. Not sure about you, but I primarily collect figures because I like the character him/herself. I wanted to get a Dollfie for the same reason. They're almost like big figures (Figma, if you will) with more realistic clothing and hair. And a lot more expensive xD. Anyway, I wouldn't rule them out entirely ;) I'm sure you've seen some that appeal to you ^^
Nice photos. Yui is very adorable. ^^ I wish we have those tulips near my place. Love the colors.
.-= Xine´s last post… Win Tickets to the Advance Screening of Iron Man 2 =-.
Thanks ^^. Flowers always make good photograph subjects :D
Nice outing with Yui, I need to take my daughters out too but it would be difficult to accomplish it without some companion, may be we should meet up to do some joint photo shoot someday.
.-= Wolfheinrich´s last post… I Have Joined deviantART Today =-.
I’m up for that. We should do it ^^b
Not a huge fan of Yui as a character, but this doll is ADORABLE! I really like how she looks.
.-= lovelyduckie´s last post… Almost Done with my Last Semester! =-.
She is just overflowing with cuteness. It’s hard to resist her even if you’re not a big Yui fan xD
Yui is really cute. Great photoshoot, and I really loved her last costume. The blue dress coat with so many elements on it. The chains, the pins, and the bow ties are all so interesting. Very cute indeed.
Thanks, glad you like the pics. I will have pics of Yui in some new outfits I just recently very soon ^^b
Yui looks cute ^^. I like the quality of Gita’s case as well ^^. The picture that I like best is the first one of her leaning against the tree, cute and natural ^^.
.-= AS´s last post… Kawaii-Kon 2010 Day 1 =-.
Yeah, Gita’s case is pretty nice. Same for the guitar itself. Could be more a bit more detailed but it’s very light which is a requirement for DDs :)
Yui and Dollfie two things I try to evade as much as possible XD
I bet you get even weirder looks for playing with such a large doll instead of simple PVC figures ^^
.-= Blowfish´s last post… Hyper Nurse Painkiller Kotone-chan (NSFW) =-.
Tsk tsk… Well, you may not like Yui, but I’m sure you’d like some of the other DDs. Like the Queen’s Blade ones? ^^
Wow! I like a lot your Yui photos :) the last one is very funny hehehe: )
Yui likes watching K-ON for some reason XD
you got her from volks? i can’t find her on the website!!!
She was only sold through the Japanese site. VolksUSA didn’t have her due to copyright issues :-/
eeeeei, Yui-chan is so cute!!
Your photos do her much better justice than the promo images I seen
ooohman, now I want one too! (do you buy from Volks Japan with a service?) Is she easy to pose?
I actually purchased her through Yahoo! Japan Auctions with a deputy service. She is no longer on sale at Volks site so you’d probably have to do the same thing. And yes, she is pretty easy to pose ^^
Where did you get Yui? I’ve been doing some research cause I’m planning to buy one. I really want to get Yui. ^^
I bought her on YJA when she was released in 2010. I bet you can still find her pop up on YJA every now and then if you look ^^.
