Shooting Japanese traditional dolls

[gloriacy]

Hello,
I'm seriously a newbie to photography,
(I'm still using my half-broken digital camera, a black spot on the len )
So please tell me what's wrong in the pictures to let me do better next time,
Hope you can get the feeling in the pictures as well ,

What kind of camera/lens/etc are you using?
And if you can provide the settings you used, that would be helpful too.

Composition-wise, they both look too busy, it's hard to tell what's going on or what you wanted the photos to show.

Pose the pieces individually, against a plain background. Frame each piece in total, and then take detail shots of interesting areas. Try to document the manufacturer's mark, or any import stamps if applicable.
