1/3 Telesthesia Dolls

Oh gosh, are the faceups from Telesthesia always like this?? from heaven to earth is the comparison between the promo pictures and the one in real life, and I was relieved that they always offered faceups they looked so sober in the photos so I though it won't be so hard to have it just like the pictures, guess not...

 

I think they are always like this. I've seen multiple people now post photos of Telesthesia dolls with weird faceups like these. I'm definitely removing mine this month and redoing it myself

 

Thanks for sharing this. I am lowering my expectations for the faceups on the two heads I bought. ☹️

 

Another reference picture, this time of resin colors. Originally posted in the Granado resin colors reference subforum, but because it features almost all my pale-skinned resin samples (including T&D), I'm also sharing this here.


NP and NY Resin Comparisons by Yela Gatchalian-David, on Flickr

EDIT: Listing the various company resins here so the comparison photo will show up when using the search bar.

DF-H (Doll Family H), LoongSoul, Iplehouse, Charm Doll, Granado, Telesthesia & Dragon

 

My junxian’s company face up wasn’t that bad but I got him in 2021 so maybe the artist changed, the recent ones really have been all over the place..

 

I know this is from like a year ago, but did you ever do that hybrid?

Or anyone else know if TD matches LS? I have both white and normal skin Loong Soul bodies and I know they tend to run lighter than darker. But I don’t have any TD resin as of yet (ordered a body from TD recently but to match Soom Tawny).

I might just buy the TD head and if it matches buy the Loong Soul body. TD might be able to color match too I should email Alice and ask, thought of that just now lol.

EDIT —- NVM I see the color comparison above THANK YOU @AntarelNefertili!

(lol I searched TD & LS instead of looking in the thread )

 

No biggie! I'll also edit the post to include the various company resins just so the comparison photo will show up when using the search bar. Also, my Xiao Bei-21 is on the 73cm LoongSoul body, and it's a really good match in terms of proportion.

 

@AntarelNefertili Thank you!! Just to confirm your boy has a 10.5cm neck? I noticed theres 10.5cm and 12cm neck versions of a lot of their dolls.

 

@RebelViva Yep, my LS body has a 10.5cm neck. I bought it as a full doll with one of the newer, more petite heads (hence the smaller neck size).

 

Anyone seen on weibo the new big boy damn his arms let’s hope he didn’t skip leg day.

 

You’ll be happy to know, he did not skip leg day

Wow the new body is huge. Massive. Massive I could never picture myself buying somethi-........ *gets a good look at the new boy, Ah Fu* oh nooo, he's hot!!!
OMG there is something in him that reminds me of the super beeffy OC that Hotoku (@analu_DT3) draws as a servant/bodyguard in one of their recurrent series/illustrations... I want him now

 

@NuttyRojita My first thought when I saw the body was "Is that you Snow Tiger?!" from the Full Volume manhwa. But, yeah kind of looks like Hotoku's drawings as well.

 

That's... Big! And the veins on the lower part of the trunk look so realistic. 85cm is too tall for me, but he's definitely gorgeous

 

We are eating good tonight I feel like telesthesiadoll has been killing it with the boys lately. Reminds me that the leopard boys were also cute.

 

85 cm?! Thank god his face is a miss for me, because his body is just my type… I wonder if they’ll ever modify their 75 cm body to be more like this one.

 

hahahahahaha yeesss totally looks like Beom from Full Volume hahaha, I really want him god, but he is so big, at least is not a limited item right? with TD their doll doesn't seem to be, gosh I really want him

@Niel That's something I would appreciate since 75cm sound more reasonable to me, if they do this body and this face for the 75cm scale, I would gladly buy it.

 

Telesthesia doll has a resin match service. So if the body is sold separately, any BJD head will do provided it's large enough to look good. I was interested in the SD75 strong body because I wanted to make an hybrid with it, but now also this one has my attention!

 

I’m interested in what hybrids are gonna be formed from this as his neck listed is pretty big.

 

While the new body is interesting, it's a hard pass for me. My 75cm guy (from another company, not T&D) is already a huge handful as is, and who knows how all the accumulated weight of resin will affect the posing. Not to mention the difficulty of finding to-scale heads if you go the hybrid route. I can see how all that heft will appeal to those who need it, tho!
