DreamOfDoll (Dream Of Children) Discussion (DoC) Part 3

I don't have many pictures of him but I will give him a new face up and start uploading more^^. Come to think of it, Mizya's beautiful boy seems to have his eyes more closed than my boy's eyes....it might be the face up or the angle of pictures.

 

Yeah. My head is a tender Zen! xD She told me he was a tender too.

 

Oh yeah....you can hardly see the eyes on tender zens....they're such cuties^^ (<- a little biased)

 

I'd love to have a Zen... not tender, but normal... I hope to buy my own Zen next year!

 

~A*K~ I hope you get him and spam him a lot because I hardly see Zens anymore >_<

 

Oooh this thread is like...dead X.x where are all the beautiful DOCs?

I will spam my boys, can't let the thread die >_<

Rosiel (DOC Twin-B) and Kyoshi (DOC Zen)

 

I have a DOD Zen head and I'm trying to find a good body for him. Does anyone have any hybrid DOC's? What's a good resin match? And can a DOD head possibly fit on a slightly bigger neck? I'm considering a xagadoll 1/4 body but that neck is a 7.4cm vs the 7.3cm that is the DOC head.

 

Does anyone have a Kirill with lighter hair (blonde, strawberry blonde, light brown, light auburn, etc.)?
I'm planning a Kirill to be my Kellan's little brother and I'd like him to have lighter hair.
Fitzwilliam has light blonde hair, but I don't know if I want them to have the same shade of hair.

 

My Kirill usually wear dark brown. But here's he with peanut/ light brown wig. I'm planning to give him silver/ white hair someday. 8)
Sorry for nasty phone cameras though. >_<

 

Ohhh, thank you!
I like the light brown.
I keep going back and forth of what shade of hair I want him to have.

 

Sooo shoe style question. Anyone able to recommend some MSD boots that are hobbitish elfish looking? All I'm finding are punk, gothic, or Mary jane shoes x_X its a gift and I need some help lol.

 

How about these? They're on ebay, not sure what company or anything, but they look more rustic.

 

Can someone tell me what size wig the DOC's wear? I can't find it listed anywhere.

 

Mine wears a 7-8.

 

I'm entirely confuzzled!
I received my Tender Too in the mail, and when I went to take off his head to change his eyes and I was so surprised!
Does anyone know how to take off a head like his?
Thanks,
Dreamer In A Box

 

If it's the older Dream of Doll head, the s-hook connects to a resin loop in the headcap. The easiest way to get it off is to slip a thumbnail or something strong but not sharp in at the top of the head and apply some leverage. If you are careful, you can slide the head cap back and then remove it from the s-hook.

This is how my Dream of Doll DoC Tender Yen came in 2005. I don't know if the sculpts have been changed at all since then. If they have changed (magnetic headcap system or something) then I don't know. Is the doll new or second hand? If second hand, do you know when it was made?

~~~

I think Mis-read the original post. Unless the head's have been modified, you must remove the s-hook to remove the head. You can place a pencil or something soft edged but strong between the head and body so you don't lose the strings, but older heads had a round hole, no way to slip the s-hook through.

My friend PherretLord modified my head to have a slot with his dremel so that I could easily remove my Tender Yen's head.

 

Thank you so much! He's from 2007, so that sounds about right. I'll have to get his head sent off then to be modded-- makes you wonder why they made round holes though, haha.

How do you put said head back on?

 

You put the head back on with lots of swearing and an extra set of hands. Or at least I did. If you have a string puller that helps, but you can make do with a piece of strong ribbon. You push it through the elastic, thread that through the hole, remove the s-hook, pull through the head, BRACE yourself, and slip the s-hook back onto the elastic. If you are lucky you can do this without hurting your hands, damaging the faceup, or a liberal application of swears.

If you are not lucky.. just re-string the whole doll and start with the s-hook in the head.

 

Thank you so much for all your help
I did as you suggested (and cursed just a little) and his head is back on-- not for long though, I'm going to have his neck modded for easier head removal and I'm getting a new face up for him-- his face up is damaged and I haven't had time to wipe it yet. But he's absolutely adorable~ I named him Gabriel, because he's such an angel :3

 

Congratulations! He looks great, and I look forward to seeing him all done up with his new faceup. My Tender Yen needs a faceup.. and a body.
