What a cool outfit and an excellent birthday present! Happy Birthday! I’m sure Sir Whatshisname will have many exciting adventures at Castle LeJays.... once he finds his name!

He has a very impressive rat tail. It you fluffed it out it could become a mullet.

Don't care that they're currently the height of fashion - he's not getting a mullet!
If anything, i'm going to practice my plaits & braid it. I think that will be much more suitable.

Thanks! He will have many exciting adventures coming up - I need to "invest" in a few swords now for the various military-style members of the family.

Happy Birthday Lejays! Congrats on your new guy. He does look like a Tristan. I’ve never seen the back of his cloak. It will be interesting to see your photos of him because I don’t think there are a lot of owner photos around. ...And there’s even a horse waiting for him!

Loona, it was really interesting reading how you name your J-dolls. I just look for names that sound similar, or at least start with the same letter, in most cases. Once in a while a doll will need a completely different name. I’m glad that Natalie helped you appreciate your Anglais more.

Well, if he ever get the runs, you could always call him... Prince Charmin'!
Nice score BTW!

Happy belated birthday, and congrats for being spoiled with this handsome fella who can now finally be crossed out from your wishlist ^^ He seems to have some sass in his looks. I hope you'll be able to find a name for him soon - an Arthurian one sounds cool and fitting! And please do go with braids, mullets were something I was happy to see go when they went out of fashion back then, how on Earth could they come back now, and more importantly, why? 2020 was a weird year in so many ways
Those are some awesome recommendations for weaponry - and martini picks! That's a clever find! I can see the little mister getting all geared-up in no time ^^

Aw, he's sweet-looking.
My childhood dog-- a totally sweet golden retriever-- was named Tristen, so I think the name fits perfectly

This little story is so cute.
And the aged-up Pullip is amazing. Hooks new moustache is just perfect for twirling.

Hell yeas he's so dandy! And I was kinda inspired when I put Hook beside Clarity.
By the way, Old Skully is another team effort between me and Tickety Boo Creations:

Cute story - and that is an impressive moustache! I'm happy your collection now has another doll who feels improved and complete with the help of Veronica. I can't speak of personal ex-perience here, but I've heard so many stories about how good it feels when one finds the custom artist who is able to create exactly what they'd like to see - it seems you found yours

Hell yeah! And especially when the artist is easy to communicate with and seems to be willing to tackle the craziest of challenges!
