Bobobie and Resinsoul Discussion - Part 12!!

Thanks everyone for the compliments.

@blueboy57 I think a lot of these non functional mobility joints are really a casting decision. I wonder if it's easier to break the legs into two parts and/or it uses less resin to cast since they can make it hollow easier. My dolls with all one piece upper legs tend to be heavier with smaller string channels. Though then why they don't bother to actually turn them into mobility joints? Your dolls sound awesome, post pictures when you can!

I looooooove the new boys! Definitely on my horribly long and ever growing wishlist. A grey Que maybe...and @SugarPineapple she's such a beauty! And while she may be an odd hybrid, it's a lovely combination!

I repainted my Elena, who really reminds me of a 1/3 size Mei without elf ears. Same slight wonk to her eyes, I think. She still looks melancholy (now it's part of her character) and all my art related endeavors have not turned out right, but I'm content for now. Now that I've painted her, she's mine. Her eyebrows and eyelashes would not come off completely no matter how/with what chemical I scrubbed. Weird for a company face up, but she is pretty old and was in rougher shape when I got her.

Ohhh she looks beautiful!!

 

Can someone with the newer Cen body and the bigger boy body (this one) tell me how tall they each are without heads? I'm thinking of asking them for a custom body kind of mashing aspects of them, but i'm trying to guesstimate about how tall to request it.

 

If that's the Yang body, I measured mine at 62cm without head. For the Cen body, 50cm. I could be a little off, but not by much

I have one in grey

Some more photos on my blog
He's a beautiful sculpt, I'm so glad I ran to get one almost the moment he was released

 

@LupusDarkmoon I took a profile shot of my guy a while back!

My guy has arrived! I'll try and embed some pics, but there's more here: Imgur: The magic of the Internet (warning for doll nudity)

Spoiler: New arrival

I'm a newbie to dolls so it's gonna take me a while to style him, but even naked and wigless I absolutely love him
The shipping was super quick with DHL, and the doll itself looks so much like the reference I sent them. They even airbrushed the transitional fur to skin on the torso just like the picture, bless them.

He has a custom goat tail, they did a really great job with it! The magnet it attaches with is riiight up between his butt cheeks... but once it's attached it makes a nice silhouette and looks fluffy

Spoiler: Tail

 

@lambshank he's GORGEOUS!!!!! His little tail is sooo cute! And the ears! Congratulations on your new arrival. Is he a modified Cen?

 

Thank you, I'm so happy with him!
Yes he is mostly Cen, the ears are similar to Ruoxi's and the legs are Mu's

 

OK, wow. That is an amazing custom! Resinsoul did that?

 

oooh he's so cute!!!

 

Oh i just looked through the album- they even made a blank head too?!!

 

Yes, they did all of it! I coloured the reference picture to show how I thought it would look on a "real" satyr, and asked them to make it look as natural as possible. I was expecting them to do a more simple/straight gradient honestly, so really happy with how they did it!

The blank head was an extra $65, totally worth it! So I can try out doing his faceup without worrying about ruining the doll

 

He looks so great! I'm really impressed with everything I've heard about Resinsoul's custom orders

 

I painted my Pandora! She brings me a lot of joy especially now that she has eyebrows.

I need to take proper, well lit shots of my dolls.

Stunning. STUNNING. I love her.

 

@Thymeseer : She is GORGEOUS! I love your color choices~ And those lips are perfection!

 

Does anyone have both the bigger boy and bigger girl bodies and could post a comparison?
