1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Dim Minimee Update & Talk Part 1

Dec 26, 2006

    1. I was just thinking of something similar, actually. O_o It would be very interesting! Faceups do wonders for difference as it is....
       
    2. Denny said at some point that if that happened, he'd have to talk it over with the person who has the original, especially if the person wants a cast from the same mold.
       

    3. Thanks!

      At the moment, Guide is on a white skin Domuya flexibody, and the resin match isn't perfect, but it's close (and it doesn;t show up in pictures, which is nice!)

      The only thing is, the ehad is very big, and I;m debating putting him on a 70cm body to even out the proportions.
       
    4. This is so amazing!! Denny, everything is so fantastic, and I'm addicted to this thread and always check for new heads to turn up.
      Guide, your character amazes the hell out of me and love how unique he is!
       
    5. Thank you everyone !
      We will reduce a little bit on its head size from May order.
      Thank you ~!!
      Yesterday, The sample body out(63cm) but there are something that I don't like. So it's going to modify again.
      Sorry for keep you waitng.
      Also, I am studying how to fix the neck hole for current owners.
      I understand the the neck hole is too big.
      (maybe it's ok with bigger bodies but smaller bodies, it is too big)
      Any idea, please let me know so that we can make one part for owners who needs.

      Thanks
      Denny
       
    6. I'm glad to hear you are reducing the head size. The large head sizes I've been seeing had me really, really worried. So I'm hoping for the heads to be closer to SD size. A head that fits 8-9 inch wigs.

      I think I will place my MiniMee order with this May order or if not this one then definitely the next one. :)
       
    7. I really hope to be placing an order in the not-too-distant future, I have LOVED what I've seen of everyone's dolls. I think once the boy and girl bodies are perfected, and the heads fit both bodies, I'll definitely place an order. Just... who do I get?? (I have been thinking of getting one of my mum and dad when they first got together, to give to my mum as a gift now that my dad's passed on. Just... do I want spare heads of them both?? lol!)
       
    8. Guide, he is one amazing doll. Eek! I don't think I'd like to meet him on a dark night...
       
    9. I'm so glad the heads are going to be reduced!!!! I know Dennis said he couldn't do 8-9 size but is seriously hope that's the size they'll be reduced to as well :eusa_pray
       
    10. But 8 is MSD (volks size) 9-9.5 is SD normally.

      Denny are you working on a MSD size body for a boy and girl too?
       
    11. The size of head I want is one that will look good on a Hound or a Model Doll body. I'm not sure how that translates into numbers as it seems SD would fit that bill too, and the Dollshe guys tend to have smallish heads.
       
    12. I'm so excited to see the bodies^^
       
    13. Denny: Is there going to be a larger/taller body? Because it is a bit of a problem for those of us with the bigger heads... I'm having trouble finding a body that doesn't make my MiniMee head look silly proportions-wise :...(

      That, and I was really hoping to get one of the bodies produced by MiniMee because it's been really difficult to find a matching resin tone from other companies *_*
       
    14. 8-9 and 9-10 are SD sizes, 7-8 is MSD. Two or three of my SDs are 8-9, it's really annoying as people seem to think that all SDs have huge heads so very hard to find wigs for them -.-
       
    15. blackpaperbag : We are testing bodies. But with less experience(Our sculptors are not expert in BJD, they are expert in Action figure)
      We are still have a difficult in producing bodies.
      In fact, we have got two different sized girl body and one MSD body
      But I don't like them and many things need to be modified.
      Anyway, I will keep this in mind and study it.

      TreeLore : Yes, of course. But not yet done because of many works.
      I will keep people informed.

      In fact, most of our minimee head size about about 9 inch.
      But it seems to people that the overall looking is slightly bigger than normal SD. (Compared to DIM head, yes minimee is bigger. DIM head are smaller SD size)
      Anyway, I will keep studying the body.
      Thank you !
      Denny
       
    16. I like smaller, more human proportioned heads myself. As a lot of these sculpts seem to be coming out very realistic, it would be great to see them fit on properly scaled bodies.
       
    17. i agree with elf, with as realistic as they're coming out they need to be realistic all around and the heads being a bit too big end up a touch off.
       
    18. I don't know, I think it kind of sounds a little creepy. I'd have to see one to make a final decision. Good luck!
       
    19. I'm so going to order some heads, still trying to plan which heads of Korean and Japanese celebs XD
      But the heads so far, are stunning and soooo well made!

      I'm a big fan of Stephanie's heads and the Miyavi head...GORGEOUS!

    20. You should take a look back through the thread, there have been quite a few finished heads now. I think there's a Minimee database as well.
