Dolly Age: Origins

Progress photos, examples, and commissions for plushies and other crafts

My dolls came in!

Once again, @tokutenshi-crafts did an amazing job! This time I got Shell and Gideon!

Aren't they cute???? The level of detailing this time is wonderful. :)

Shell has little knives and a dagger, and a real earring!

And just look at Gideon's armor!

Her dolls are amazing guys, and well worth the cost and wait. Last I checked, her wait list is open again if you want your own OCs.

So glad you like them!

I really appreciate everyone's patience and am trying to work at a faster pace this coming year.

OPEN - December 2, 2024

Plushie Commissions!

Dolls made to order!

Each doll is $50 USD plus shipping, with a $3 payment (via Ko-fi) per doll to get on the waiting list, $22 due at time of commission production, with the remainder ($25) due at time of shipping. Payment only accepted through Paypal at this time.

Dolls are approximately 8" with dwarves being slightly shorter than humans and elves, while qunari are taller, just like in real life! Wait…

Dolls are made from alova suede with minky fabric for hair, perfect for affectionate head-petting. Eyes, brow, and mouth are stitched in with further face details hand-painted on. Horns and some embellishments are made with felt, but several other types of trim may be used as the design permits.

Custom protagonist and Original Character plushies! 

Simply provide screen shots, art, or a physical description of your character and preferred outfit as well as the desired expression. Once the concept art is approved, I’ll get right to work on producing your squishable avatar.

—

Companions, Baddies, and other NPCs can be yours to cuddle!

Starter outfits are used on default for canon character, so if you would like another outfit or something special, please specify at time of commission.

**NOTE: As these dolls were originally intended as companion pieces for the official Sanshee dolls, any character released by them is unavailable. That being said, characters can be requested in a form other than the norm. For example, Commander Cullen is not allowed, but templar Cullen, Knight-Captain Cullen, post-Trespasser Cullen and any sort of AU version (Avvar, modern, etc) are fair game!

**UPDATE: The version of Alistair shown above is no longer available as an official doll has been released. Feel free to request him in Grey Warden armor or something else he’ll enjoy just as much.

Getting your OTP? For an additional $5, you can add kissy magnets!

Already have your love interest at home? I’ll include step by step instructions on how to perform plushie surgery and implant the companion magnet on your own

Fill out the Waiting List form and send $3 via Ko-fi to get started!

Updated the images a little, so now you can see the only dolls I've ever made for myself - Ebrisa Trevelyan and Knight-Captain Cullen. I love his noodle hair.

(My daughter plays with them and calls them the princess and the knight )

Sanshee now has Fenris on pre-order and, therefore, I will no longer be making him in his standard armor. If you are already on the waiting list and still want me to make him in the standard, I will because I have taken forever to work through orders. You can also change his outfit or go "Blue Wraith" version or some other variation for him.

A pin is also available, or get the two in the "Grumpy Elf" bundle.

UPDATE: Sanshee now has a Solas plush.

Dragon Age - Solas Collector's Plush

Now you can have some scholarly company while you read historical texts. Many would accuse Solas of being somewhat prickly, and not entirely

Despite me being set up to receive Sanshee emails, I didn't find out about him until today. Luckily, it's not an outfit people usually ask for so I can keep making the Fen'harel/Trespasser armor without worry.

Turns out I reblogged this on my main account instead of my craft one - whoops!

Happy Dragon Age Day!

I dont usually post photos of myself because self-esteem blah blah blah, but I met Allegra Clark at a local convention last month and made Josephine plushie for her.

I did donate a custom doll and some ornaments for the D4 Day charity, but they were snatched up super quick. My commission waiting list is open once again, so take a look around at all the dollies I've made before and let me know if you'd like to take a number.

Something new in my etsy shop just in time for sparkle season - Dragon Age ornaments! These disc ornaments are filled with glitter and decorated with vinyl, ribbon, and metal charms.

Happy N7 day!

I have posted on my etsy page a completed Commander Jane Shepard in N7 armor and a Kaidan in fatigues. It is my hope to create an extra doll of some sort with each batch of orders I make going forward so I can sell standard characters in this manner. Hopefully, this will cut down on the wait time for some people who don't necessarily want a customized plushie.

*edited to include photos

There is only one of each. Shipping is free and currently only available in the US. Store links below.

I'm sorry for being inactive for so long. Adjusting to the life of a single parent took a lot longer than I anticipated, and I appreciate everyone's patience as I tried to sort it all out. I will be opening the waiting list very soon, so please hang on a little longer.

Happy Dragon Age Day!

While I don't have anything new to offer, please enjoy these previously commissioned versions of Solas as we get breadcrumbs about Dreadwolf.

Firstly, I apologize for being so absent and so quiet for so long. I hope to get back to work on my dolls in January but still have such a large backlog that I can't yet open the commissions waiting list.

In experimenting with how I can craft around my preschooler (she's a what now? That still feels so weird) I was able to make a limited quantity of Dragon Age Inquisition felt ornaments.

Solo Mission (single) option is sold out, and only one Inquisition set (all 12 characters) remains.

Three Advisor sets are still in stock.

This is not an item I will be able to replenish for a long time unless they are in high demand.

Going on Hiatus

When I closed my waiting list I created a doll order schedule to help keep me on pace throughout the year. 4-5 dolls a month sounded reasonable as I've done more than that while doing school part-time. I managed to more or less stay on top of dolls for about half a year, but I started slipping further and further behind. Work, (full-time and summer session) school, etsy, and being a single parent of a toddler really weighed on me and my mental health.

I felt so tired, so drained, and lost motivation for just about everything. To be honest, I've likely been juggling too much for too long and just become burned out.

I've finished school and have started a full-time "big girl job" with a long commute. It will take me a while to figure out how to arrange my life and I just wanted everyone to be aware that I have halted doll making for the time being.

The Cullen plush is (currently) back in stock at Sanshee and Alistair is still available for pre-order.

Cullen usually runs out fast and restocks are few and far between, so act quickly.

[tokutenshi-crafts]

I'm very very slowly working on orders. Far slower than I intended. Lots of personal problems have been getting in the way.

Please consider the official dolls of Cullen and Alistair if you haven't already.

*screams* MY BABIES ARRIVED and much quicker than I anticipated

Thank you @tokutenshi-crafts!!!!

I've made quite a few Shepards, but this was my first time doing renegade scars. Since the scars have a sort of glow to them in game, I used a red holographic heat-transfer vinyl so it catches the light on fun ways.

[tokutenshi-crafts]

I bit the bullet and finally upgraded my embroidery software to Embird. Hopefully it won't take me too long to learn and my doll faces come out much better.

[tokutenshi-crafts]

Good news, it's just shirts.
