DearMine Dear Pet, Classic 20cm & Beans 12cm Anthros Discussion Part 3

Oh my, that picture is too cute.

@sistercuervo - very interesting comparison pic! It looks like the new Cheese mouse body is even shorter than the old cheese mouse body. I'll have to compare my mice to my Beans, as I didn't think the Beans were taller than them. Do you happen to have the old cm body? I'd be so curious to see them compared.

 

I'm so sorry, but I don't have the old CM body. I really like this one, as it's very stable as far as standing. Those big ole feet really help. The Beans' tiny feet sure do make it tough to stand them up, even though they are super cute.

 

No worries! I should be able to ascertain what I want to know by comparing my cm to a Bean. One of my Bean's is super floppy, so getting him to stand is not easy, but my other one is way tighter. Those tiny Bean feet are adorable, but definitely not real helpful in getting them to stand.

The new cm body doesn't look as strange as I had expected, with the bunny-esque feet. It's really cute, actually!

 

I ordered my Picasso classic yesterday! Woo. I'm excited. And also...... I want her here already. I've wanted one for months and finally was able to order so having to wait more I guess won't be too bad. I guess.

What other clothing can fit on the classic Picasso size? I figure I'll probably end up having to make some of my own stuff if I want more. Though the default outfit is super cute too.

 

I've just ordered my Q Bean in peach skin! I'm super excited, this is the first BJD doll I have bought in years. I knew I had to get him as soon as I read the announcement for the spring event, Iove bunnies and pink is my favourite colour!

This is my first 1:12 scaled doll so I'll probably have to make clothes for him at some point. I do own a few miniatures that are the perfect size though! I'm excited to be able to use them again as well!

 

Congrats on your first BJD . Q is really cute, love the resin color.

 

It actually won't be my first BJD . I've had two since I was a teenager, but I took a long break from the hobby so I haven't had a new doll for a long time.

I guess in a sense it will be my first BJD since my return to the hobby.

 

Q is such a cutey! I love the big floppy ears! Congrats!

I wonder why they went with that name for tge sculpt though.

 

I'm a firm believer there can be multiple "firsts" .

I just think about how hard it will be to search for! I've always raised my eyebrow at weird sculpt names... DikaDoll AAAAA comes to mind.

 

I didn't even realize that spring dolls had been released. Full of cuties, but lavender skin bean Picasso really looked tempting! But there is something bothering about make-up, maybe the face expression, like the more of happy face.
Petit Lapin Lunaire Congratulations for ordering Q! Can't wait to see all the cute owner pics, when Q's start arriving for people.

 

Right? I tried looking up for other Q owners to see more pictures but it just wouldn't come up. I figured that I would need to see the doll for myself!

Lavender skin bean Picasso is super adorable! I also love this colour so it was very tempting to get him as well. Unfortunately, I just had the funds for one. This isn't the first time they've released this colour though, so I'm hopeful that it'll come back at some point.

I'll make sure to share pictures of Q when he arrives!

 

I feel there's been some interest in my suggestion of wiring dear pet legs to fix the problem where they can't hold any pose but directly together. Since I was wiring up my newly arrived Lily tonight I put together a rather huge tutorial on how I did it. I'll just link to my site as I think there's only one photo allowed in this section.

Plus if anything is especially unclear on my site you can draw a box on a photo and attach a comment (if you're registered) if you need or want anything clarified.

Wiring and Stringing a Dear Mine Dear Pet

Hopefully it helps at least a little.

 

Amazing tutorial @scripple ! Bookedmarked for later. Also, cheers to both of our Lilys

 

Thanks @Anglerfishee . Cheers indeed.

 

Thanks @april . I hope it helps a few dear pets out there better express themselves.

 

I have to resuede Jin when I get home in August, so I'm definitely keeping this in mind - I'd be willing to try something new instead of attempting to slather glue into new places. His ankles are his weak spot right now I may even do a combo of things once I see how its all going to go so thank you!

 

I suede the shoulders, hips, wrists, and ankles before I wire them. I'm not sure the sueded hips really do much, but I sueded before I started wiring and the wrists and ankles definitely benefit so I figure why not while I'm doing the rest.
