☆~~ Granado Doll Discussion Part 18 ~~☆

@SteamWitch Awesome faceup!

 

Those tattoos are epic! Stunning job.

 

Thank you @nancy_schroeder_ca and @Quiet and Insane still working on him too.

 

Question, friends! Is the Granado Bronze tone still close to Iplehouse Light Brown? Asking for science.

 

I have a Granado bronze head that's been in a box for uhhhh several years, and an unpainted Iplehouse light brown from very late/early 2020/1 if that would help in any way?

 

That would! Thanks!

 

Cool! I'll figure out the exact years of arrival and get those photos to you tomorrow/the day after once I get some daylight down here.

 

Sorry for the double post, but here's the comparison @TatterPunk!

Thanks so much! That Bronze is a gooorgeous color! Not the best match, but I may need to eventually get a body in Bronze either way now lol.

 

You're welcome! I absolutely adore the bronze colour! In natural light the Iplehouse definitely has a cooler tone. Still very nice, but definitely not a great match unless you're keen on a lot of blushing.

 

Hi everybody!
I have Granado 70Adagio, very recently arrived. And while I’m happy to make his clothes myself sometimes I see an add for nice clothes and wonder would they fit him? Just theoretically. Point is sellers mark the sizes in Volks classification (I mean abbreviations like SD, SD17 etc) and l have no idea which one/several would fit him or maybe none? Maybe you have it figured out already and can share please?
Thanks!

 

Hm, I could be wrong, but I think standard SD and SD17 would be too small for the Adagio body? You'd need clothing labelled for 70+ or even Uncle in some cases.

 

So I've been working for a couple years on putting together a doll of a beloved Original character, and the Granado Newton head was the exact spitting image of his face... but the head looked so tiny on an SDGr sized (65ish cm) body that I had to change plans, give that body to another doll, and find him a new one that gave him more typical BJD proportions. I am delighted to say that this week the body arrived, a Doll Leaves 60cm body, and he looks great on it to me. Just the look I was after! (Though the iPhone makes his head look too big, go figure. My proper camera won't do that.)

The fancy clothes I bought for him will be easy to alter to fit this smaller frame. I can't make clothes this polished and modern but I can alter them well enough.

 

Granado is currently doing a crowdfunding campaign for the Fortis body in every size from 33cm up to 75cm.
They're asking for a $5 USD deposit and only 5 people need to order that size for the production to go ahead, regardless of resin colour.
I've wanted to try a Granado body for some time now (their heads, while beautiful, sadly do not jive with the Volks mob in my house) so I've joined in!
The crowdfunding campaign is going for a whole month (until November 4th) so there's plenty of time to mull it over

 

What size are you asking for?

 

I was fortunate enough to get in on the previous Crowdfund for the 53Lucifer (mine is in syringa). It's too bad for me that I recently bought a doll and sent off 2 heads for face-ups so have no funds left for more resin at this time.

 

@Mahgiep 70cm in WS

 

I signed up for the 33cm dude.

 

I will order both the 50cm and the 33cm bodies. I am just deciding on skin colors!

 

I'm thinking of the 70cm, also trying to decide on skin color.
