Doll Family A Discussion - part 2

Does anyone have any experience with the mellowing of DF-A’s tan resin?

Thinking of getting one but I can’t find any reviews about their mellowing and how fast it goes.

 

TokyoLynn, sorry I can't help you with your question about the 70cm/75cm bodies, but I just had to comment on your considering a DF-A Dimon. He's gorgeous! Such a handsome sculpt! I keep looking at him and thinking I need to add this boy to my crew. (Please excuse the fangirling )

If and when I get a Dimon I will probably go with a 68cm body, just because I like slender, less muscular bodies. Additionally, I think it would be easier to find clothes for him, since 70cm clothes would fit him, and 70cm clothes are offered everywhere. But, that's just my personal bias.

If you go back through this thread there is some discussion about the differences between the 70cm and 75cm bodies. The 70cm body is said to be pretty muscular and bulky. Someone mentioned having some difficulty getting 70cm clothes to fit his bulk. I guess it just depends on what you are specifically looking for in a body.

(Oh! And love the photo of your DZ Yuu avatar! Good luck! )

 

@Rabbit-moon I'm leaning more towards the 75cm body to be honest. I feel like I might have an easier time finding clothes for him, especially since Luts now sells 75cm clothing. But I'm probably gonna check out the 68cm body too just to keep my options open.

(Thank you! He's my handsome old banana. Haha)

 

Angeles, thank you, I really appreciate your help, I just bought DF-A jointed hands for SD17 in off-white last month because I worried that the Ns yellow or Ns pink is too vivid for Luts Ns body since Luts looks nearly white. His hands still on processing time, I will post the comparison skin tone when them finish too.
Congratulations on your DFA Jiuyu, that's surprise fast, please share his pic then

 

Is he the big chest one? His clothes would be hard to find because his thighs and his chest bigger than most previous 70cm dolls from Luts (SSDF), Sadol (Star70), ...
If you want to find normal shirt or straight jeans you can buy from Nine9style, Sadol, Crobidoll, ... They have some lines clothes for SSdF or 70cm dolls but of course very limited.
More option for you is Korean private shops, you can buy them from Etsy (you can search them on Instagram first), super expensive, such as Dk Craft shop, Theo-dore. Their clothes even for SD17 still fit 70cm dolls.
Otherwise you can buy from Taobao, because DFA 70 from China that’s why Taobao has some shops that sell clothes for their domestic dolls like Popo 68 and DfA70. Some of them are especially expensive because the size is abnormal. Most of people have this doll body must buy product from China or from doll tailor-made shops. I have a SSDF from Luts and believe me I rarely used this body, how many clothes I tried to buy he didn't fit in so I sewed for him some new clothes and kept him in box when I’m lazy.

 

Does anyone have Bibi? I am waiting on one. Will be my first DFA doll.

 

You know, I had totally forgotten to post the resin comparisons here on DOA! I did post him to my Instagram though, here are a couple of the comparison photos with a Luts head and Dollfamily A body. The body is too pink, which makes sense because it's the Pink DFA body, and the Luts head is their "Normal" color.

 

Anyway, my Jiuyu showed up a couple weeks ago! I really should get better at updating here too!~

With Faceup~

 

Does anyone here happen to have a comparison for DF-A tan and normal yellow or pink?

 

The new 65cm male bodies that just came out look pretty good!

 

My Susu became Afra Lyon after he and the Islanddoll body were dyed green. His clothes came in this week and now he is done to my critic's satisfaction. Though he is probably a bit greener than he should be we like him.

I'm going to use another Susu to try and make Victor Nikiforov from Yuri on Ice. My Ringdoll Pan will be his Yuri.

 

How do people like the 68 cm girl body? I hear a lot about the boy one but would love a better look at the girl, especially the large chest size from the side.

 

I have this body, but with the small bust, and it is amazing at holding poses. A thing to note though is that it is much shorter than 68cm. My girl is a hybrid and only about 65cm in height.

Spoiler: Posing example with nudity

The body can easily stand on one foot without sueding or wiring.

The hands are ugly, so I replaced them with Doll Chateau Youth jointed hands, which are a tad big in the wrist, but overall a good fit. One more thing I'd like to mention is that the feet are a bit wide, so finding shoes can be tricky.

 

@IzabethS
Oh that looks so gorgeous! What a champion poser!
can I see her from the side, if possible?
Anything other than the hands and feet width that annoys you?

 

Sure thing, here’s a pic from the side and the front, compared to the Impldoll SGB girl body. I do not have any other complaints about the body, it is very leggy and lovely. If you like to,or row I can compare it to my DF-H 63cm girl body.

I have a couple of questions for those of you who have the 68cm boy body. Are the measurements on the website accurate? Also, which version of the body did you go with (two piece or three piece) and why? Also how well does it pose?

I'm toying with the idea of upgrading my Soom Chalco to this body. He's on the original SG body and while it is nice to look at, it's very stiff and has limited poseability.

 

@IzabethS
Oh she's so pretty! Thinner than I thought but less swayback than some of the pictures looked. I think I'm sold on it! =)

How is it to find clothes for? I sew most of my own since the dolls I have are the Resinsoul elongated bodies, and I was hoping to go for a more 'average' build than that.

 

I love the body too! She can fit easily in most skirts, and regular SD tops, but I haven't found pants yet she can wear. Might have to steal my only SD16 set off pants off another doll to try on her. Getting normal SD panties onto her booty is also a challenge, as she's very hippy and has quite the trunk on her.

 

@IzabethS
Oh that's awesome! Thank you so much for the help with this, I ordered her
Let me know if the SD16 pants fit!

 

What are the current wait times for DF-A?
