    2. They were easy to get to!

      Elfdoll Yumi on new body, Dollmore Ramie, Elfdoll Dami on original body

      I think Ramie is a bit tall. She looks OK with the original body which is more childlike.

      PS: Thanks for making me get Ramie out! I wanted a picture of her as Dollmore sent her before I get her appropriate eyes and remove those huge eyelashes!

    3. Your Raime is gorgeous! I'm thinking even 48 for an older sibling. it's moot now that I've looked at Souldoll's Souloids. I keep missing out on them. not this time!
      big brother is a robot?

      so those are the different versions, the older body is the one I'm getting. in the darker skin. she sure is shiny. but the childlike figure suits my ideas for her.
      your white skin girl is like Unoa. sexy!

    4. @petiteballerine congrats on your Yumi!

      The only shoes I've found that fit so far are the ones Dale Rae used to make. If anyone has other ideas, I'd love to hear them. :)

    5. My Dami is normal skin.Twiggy was homme skin so a little darker. A spray of matt MSC should cut the shine.
       
      #65 nancy_schroeder_ca, Jul 7, 2016
    6. oh, ok. Twiggy. I just started looking her up last night (I'm a fast worker but then I have a gifted enabler.) and it's confusing how many versions.
      she'll just have to shine, because I need to wear hazmat gear to use any spray. besides, she's not going to be like my male dolls who like to go
      around shirtless. :sweat
      many thanks, Nancy for all the help.

      Hi @Alewife! I'll certainly have a lot to report when she arrives. spam will happen.:apirate:
       
      #66 petiteballerine, Jul 8, 2016
    7. Oh good, looking forward to the spam!

    8. She's home and I love her so much! beautiful resin. not a seam to be felt, and not shiny.
      I've named her Iseul which reminds me of Isolde, one of my favorite characters, but Iseul is Korean for 'dew.' very apropos I think.
      and no tragic ending.

      I've used eyes I consider the right proportion white to iris/pupil, but bright orange-brown which is not quite what I imagined, so they're muted in this backlit shot.
      she's so fun to play with and dress. I find 7/8 wigs too big. slidey and too much hair. but, 6/7 is nice. I think the ideal would be 7 1/4" so I foresee some wig-making
      here in the 'studio.'
      haven't tackled the shoe issue (say that fast six times) yet.

    9. She's really beautiful!

      The wig fit is sort of hit or miss. 6/7 with a stretchy wig cap seems to work OK. If you find shoes that fit, I'd love to hear it. :)
       
      #69 Alewife, Jul 13, 2016
    10. @Alewife - you're so right about the wig issue. most of my 6/7 fit, but most of my 7/8 are just too much hair for my taste. not sure I want to buy anything. she's that in-between size.
      I'd love to make a short wig for her. very modern.
      will get to the shoes this week and report back with any joy.
       
      #70 petiteballerine, Jul 13, 2016
    11. She is lovely! I'm glad she isn't shiny! Mine was second hand so I don't know what "treatment" she has had in the past.
       
      #71 nancy_schroeder_ca, Jul 14, 2016
    12. @nancy_schroeder_ca - thanks! I love her slightly tan skin, but now I crave a white skin one. :drool maybe someday. too many layaways now to hunt for a grail.
      I bought her from a dear friend who has literally given me rare dolls before, so this time we worked out a fair price. probably more fair for me, but I never see these girls for sale so we had no
      guide. She takes such good care of her dolls. When I opened the box, it was like a new doll with everything in original wrapping.

      of course I had to do a tiny bit of painting, some rosy lips, more freckles. :wiggle

      I'm thinking she's 15 yrs. Past the awkward stage but not quite a women yet. nice range for style.
       
      #72 petiteballerine, Jul 14, 2016
    13. Isn't it wonderful to get an "old" doll that looks brand new!

      I think 13-15 is a great age range for that body. It's a wonderful body for a young girl. My WS Yumi came from the final sales at Efldoll.
      My NS Dami came from a loving and caring collector.
       
      #73 nancy_schroeder_ca, Jul 14, 2016
    14. some shoes I like for her. those big, Minnie Mouse styles just don't look right for Iseul IMO.
      not sure about that wig either, but it's fun. I've decided 6/7 Monique Gold fit her perfectly.

      [​IMG]

      sandals by Leeke. sneakers by...? many years old. fit my Unoa boys.
      ballet shoes in various colors from Sansha.
      fab boots borrowed from Tonner Lara Croft.

    15. Hi!

      May I ask which body is that new one your Yumi is on? I got a Yumi head and sleeping faceplate last year (snow skin) and was hoping they won't be floating forever :eusa_pray Actually I'm planning to get a Little Monica - Little Harmony body for her, but your lucky lady looks gorgeous with that body :drool
       
      #75 aquabliss, Aug 11, 2016
    16. Yumi is on the second Elfdoll body. I think there are more Elfdoll loose heads than bodies, so good luck!
       
      #76 nancy_schroeder_ca, Aug 11, 2016
    17. So it's another Elfdoll body! I must have known, there are some characteristic details on both bodies. But overall it looked very different from the first one, so I thought maybe it was another company.

      Thank you so much for your reply! Looking forward to the day she'll be complete and introduced here ^_^

    18. Hi everyone! After scouring and hoping one day I'd find a yumi/dami - I did! I managed to snag both dami and yumi twiggy faceplates and she came on a planetdoll mermaid body. The thing is I'm really not a fan of the body - and once I took her faceplate off realised she is quite different to my other dolls, so probably can't even switch her to one of their bodies.

      Does anyone have any body recommendations - and also - how! Her hook and the hole in her head is much smaller than all my other girls (peakswood, iplehouse, minifee)...

      thanks in advance! Here's a quick pic of her - I am smitten. She still needs new eyes and wig :)

    19. Congrats on buying her! I had been looking at that one for awhile but was so scared about the mermaid part. I've never tried doing a hybrid before, but I'm really excited to see what you do.
      Here are some things I had looked at. Seems like a minifee body might be a good route as that is the one that continually popped up.
      Elfdoll Dami / Minifee hybrid
      Elfdoll Yumi hybrid
      the joint — tabitha (tibi) 23/F elfdoll dami/minifee hybrid ...

      Also this is a comparison of sizes and I really wouldn't be surprised if a Unoa body would work, but you would probably have to look into the neck part first. I think that body would be really cute for sure.
      MSDs Unoa Hybrid, Elfdoll Dami Tan, Minifee Cloe andUnoa Lusis
      Again congrats! I am so obsessed with the Yumi sculpt. Someday I'll find her. Till then I'm going to live vicariously through your exciting plans!

      Edit-I found one elfdoll/minifee hybrid video on YouTube, but unfortunately it's not in English so it wouldn't be much help and it doesn't really show how the neck and head work together even with the language barrier.

    20. what a pretty girl. I have such fun with my Yumi.
      Your Twiggy would look so cute on a Unoa body. Easy to find clothes and shoes for.
      congrats.
