Bobobie/Resinsoul 1/6 human discussion - part 5

Zomboid~ Most of the BBB threads have bouts of activity with slow periods in between. :/ Love those eyes hardcore. They look soooo nice on her!

 

Zomboid! Your March is so beautiful! Here is my March, Yukio. She is so difficult & stubborn! She has been through SO MANY wigs, eyes, & outfits... Although, I think she may actually be happy with how she looks now?

 

Thank you guys for your nice comments! Yes, the March sculpt (or maybe the tiny BBB sculpts in general?) are somewhat difficult to figure out, knowyerrights, I have tried a lot of eyes and wigs on my March aswell and I'm still not 100% satisfied. I think the "problem" is her very thick eyewells, which make eye positioning very difficult. I will order an eye beveller in 10mm, hopefully this will make positioning 10mm eyes in her head more easy. I really think 10mm is the perfect eye size for little March, anything bigger will look herpy-derp in my opinion. Also, for wigs I learned that she needs a wig with no bangs or bangs that lie really flat on her forehead (mohair?), as to avoid the fake wig look. I am also lost with clothes, she fits into some selfmade Barbie clothes but that's not really the look I want to go with her. She also can wear some Azone clothes, so maybe that's a good source for well made clothing.
That said, your March looks really cute, knowyerrights, is that a Jpop wig? It looks really natural and her faceup looks really good from what I can tell from the picture.

 

Funnily enough I've only found one article of clothing that fits my Isabella that's from Barbie:



Her pants. Her top I made from a sock.

 

Another clothing question to all of you seasoned BBB owners: Do you know if Blythe/Pullip clothes would fit the single-jointed March body? I compared measurements and it would seem like Blythe has a much smaller waist than March but then again so do the Azone Pure Neemo dolls and I have some Azone clothing that fits my March. It is really difficult finding Barbie measurements online for some reason (..lol?) but I think I remember Barbie also having a much smaller waist than March and the Barbie clothes I have fit my March aswell. This is really mysterious to me, maybe the clothing companies make their clothes extra stretchy/bigger in the waist? If that is so, maybe our girls and boys could also fit into Blythe clothing, no? There are a lot of really cute clothes for Blythe on Etsy, has anyone ever tried those? If not, maybe I'll get a cheapish dress and try myself.
Oh and extra info: I ordered two "Fashionette" outfits made for Barbie sized dolls from Amazon and they fit really well! They are also a little more sophisticated looking than most Barbie clothes and are really cute, so check them out! I think it is a European company. Pictures will follow soon!

 

Zomboid~ Depends on the piece. I have a friend who does Pulip/Blythe Stuff and her Pulip stuff works just fine, they are tight in the middle but anything loose-ish or with some stretch in the waist should be fine. As for Barbie stuff, newer barbies are not as narrow in the waist as classic barbies. I'd never heard about Fashionette before, it seems to be a separate company doing doll clothes for several standardized dolls Mattel makes... So that's good info.

 

oppss human not elf.

 

Thank you for your input, Lynn Nexus. I think I will try a Pullip dress soon, something not that expensive at first. There sure are a lot of adorable clothes out there for her and Blythe, it's hard not to buy a ton lol. But I am determined to sew for my March aswell, I have so much fabric at home, I could open a fabric store.

 

What kind and size of eye do you recommend for a ResinSoul Ni? I know my Mei has a lot of issues with gapping even with the recommended eye size, and I don't want my incoming Ni to have the same problem. I don't want to have to guess and buy random eyes like I did with Mei.

 

Aela, I have 12mm in my Bei, which is the elf version of Ni. Unfortunately, since she's still a WIP, this is the best picture I have showing her in these eyes:

I haven't had any gapping issues with them; they're lower dome acrylics (Ersa Flora) and fit nicely.

 

Alright About to look through them now hehe! Thanks ^^

 

Just going to bump this up with a photo of my Zelda
Selfie! Haha! I haven't taken photos in a while, thought I should fix that =3 #linecamera #letstakeatrip #dollsofinstagram #dollstagram #bjd #bobobie #zelda by until_fullmoon, on Flickr

 

Can't remember if I posted this pic but it's one of my favorites of Avery... So... Here it is:



She still needs work, I have to get her sueded eventually I'm just nervous trying it on such a little thing.

 

Hi guys!
it has been a while since I've been around here! ^^ I have been back in the market for dolls since I'm helping a friend buy her first, and of course I'm hoping she goes with RS or BBB. But in the meantime I've found myself interested in Xu, so I was wondering if anyone has owner pics of him? I've seen a few on Flickr but not very many at all!

(Also I hope everyone is doing well! I miss this thread~)

 

Aela, I have 10mm eyes in my Bei, and they seem to be working out pretty well. Her wig, on the other hand, could use a little more TLC...


I realize this is probably old news by now, but I wanted to share.

 

O.O Fig Arrived today! No email notice that he was being shipped... Just BOOM! notice on my door with CN at the end of the tracking number... Now to start working on the wig! ^o^ and eyes!

 

^_^ ya fig has gotten here ^_^

 

Can someone tell me what wig size Isabella wears?

 

5-6, she fits Liv wigs perfectly.
