It looks like the old tan was discontinued in October of 2020, so she's old tan - I ordered her in April. The new tan is gorgeous too! I'm curious how different they are.
@redsixwing thank you! That’s good news! Seeing your Bustet in natural light, it is a really nice color, and she’s even cuter. Amazing what the right pictures can do to show new light on a sculpt!
I've been debating on what color to order a Zhao in for a couple days. Initially I wanted tan but I really don't like the old Tan that looks orange and for the upcharge I don't think I want to take that chance. I really love the black but that's to much of an upcharge for me to afford. So I was going to go NS but then I got to thinking that WS may be easier to dye/color however I want. I may use him as my first dye project (never done so before and I'm a lil nervous) or I could possibly pay someone else to dye him for me. So I think I FINALLY decided on going the WS route. Seems more cat-like anyways. And I kind of want to make him based off Kuro from Ao no Exorcist so starting with a white base seems a lot easier. Or I have a silver fox character he could become. Either way I'll be ordering him either today or tomorrow! Edit: WS Zhao has been ordered!
She can use her tail to keep balance and stand,you can try it (Please ignore my curtains full of cat hair) Cute sitting I have some blank Bustet photo, if anyone wants to refer black resin
@marephome I'm impressed with how you balanced Bustet! Thanks for the photos! She is so beautiful in black resin. I may need to order another one some day...
Just put in my order for a WS Xi, can't wait! I really need to work on my Bustet, at least get her a proper wig.
Going ahead with my Bustet/Zhao head swap plan. Ordered both in white - if I didn't already have a split partner lined up I might have tried for a custom Bustet bod/Zhao head in tan or black, but I guess I'm technically saving money this way lol. Plus white will prob be better for getting some fancy faceup and body blushing done on him - I'm thinking a celestial lion look.
I haven't popped in here for a hot minute, but thank you both @redsixwing and @marephome for the generous amounts of posing photos. I can understand the extra sueding/wiring needed for so many little joints, but they sure are the cutest little things.... (On the other hand, seeing all the posing photos makes me suffer all over again... because they're soooo cute! Noooo... ) That being said, I have also jumped onto the Zhao bandwagon. I went for pink resin but I also have a dye project in mind. Hopefully I will have more dyeing experience by the end of this year too. I can't wait to see what everyone plans to do with all of their kitties!!
Finally got her a wig, still trying to will myself to clean off my desk to do faceups though. I've been having trouble getting motivated for anything
Man all these Bustet photos have me second guessing deciding not to order her... I love kittytaurs but her oversized human half makes me uncomfortable--but with clothing it actually looks really cute..
Looks like DV have a plan to release the new 1/6 dragons and new dragons pets soon. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E0xXfgeVkAA7fhf?format=jpg&name=large https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E0xXfgfVEAE5Fi1?format=jpg&name=large I'm afraid about my poor wallet. This little cuties looks sooo sweet.
Wow, the painting on their wings looks great! The pet dolls are honestly more tempting to me, though. DV always has great pet accompaniments and this is no exception.
Ahh I love both the tinies as well as the pet dragons I feel bad; my Aiden and Glen dolls are still blank and naked, but here I am looking at potential new dolls...
The new pics of the dragon kids and pets are up on DV site! And they will be soon up for sale! And there is more pics of these cuties! Bor is such adorable! And I love this cute little fangs of Dragon girl Izzy!
Got my Peanut and Ding today by FedEx from AC, six and a half month wait total. They're great, Peanut is bigger than my mental image for some reason, but that's good actually. First pic... Meet Filbert by Nadine, on Flickr
