Description
BaseA remake of the very first doll I made, which you can see here: Then and Now . The design is a bit simple, but I'm afraid 14 year old me wasn't all that creative, especially not this early in my dolling career XD At least this version is better than the original
Dolling on Xandorra's base was such a nostalgic experience. Gosh, I miss that site so much...

Oh man Xandorra! That was one of the first dolling sites I ever visited. What a blast from the past! And she's lovely. Amazing what good a decade of practice will do...

It was one of my first dolling sites too! In fact, it was her site that got me into dolling ^^ And her forum was the first forum I ever joined. I wish these sites had never disappeared :/
Thank you! It seems all those years of dolling have proven to be useful XD Well, she's a princess, so I'm pretty sure she knows every little rumour about the people at her court

I think it's great that you did a remake! I know I keep saying this, but I swear, every time you doll I keep thinking that you used the tool-shaded method. It's impressive how smooth your pixel shading is! 
I used to doll on Xandorras bases back when I started dolling too, they were the perfect size, neither too big or too small. I miss that site too.

Thank you! 
Xandorra was the site that got me into dolling and a lot of my first dolls where made on her bases. They were so easy to work with and small enough not to be too intimidating for a newbie doller ^^ I wish that the site wasn't gone. So many people started dolling thanks to her site. With her gone (along with DHF), there is no more site with lots of resources that newbies can use :/

You're welcome! Looks like all your efforts was worth it!
Yeah, I know what you mean. It's such a pity that so many of those classic old sites, are gone now.
I spent so much time at Xandorra's and Suzy's sites in the early days...such good memories! XD

the colours so calibrated and harmonic! You should do a tut about this in your dolls

Thank you so much! (for the fav as well ^^) I'm glad that you like the palette: it took me a few tries to get it looking right (I actually started out with warmer highlights, but found out that they made the palette look wonky).

It is rare to see red shaded cooly, and you did an excellent job! The colours almost seem metallic.
You are very welcome!
