Fairyland Chic Line clothing, shoe, and wig database - Useable vs. REALLY FITS

May 18, 2010

    1. THANK YOU!! I had no idea where to get my guys anything!
       
    2. Thank you! It's a wig I had made by Chewin, who mostly does fashion-doll stuff. When I found out that he had Chiclines, I fell all over myself to commission some wigs from him! It can be so hard to find tiny boy-short wigs.

      You're welcome! A search for 'Matt O'Neill' will generally turn up clothes that are somewhat oversized but workable. Some Matt shoes are almost 7cm long, but the Releaserain and Paul Zhangby shoes tend to be about 6.5cm, which is definitely closer to the mark!
       

    3. I had a few photos of my Rou wearing them a few pages back but when on a deleting-spree a while ago and took deleted them also from here.
      But here are there are again and a few links. Hope they help you, I take terrible photosโ€ฆDX

      [​IMG]

      Without pants:
      1,2,3,4.

      They are a bit big but I like that you don't need socks to be able to take them off, because they have a zipper on the back and have plenty of room.
      They are not tight around the calves either, which was my main concern since I got the rider-boots from Releaserain which are sadly
      a bit on the tight side and do need to be pried off.

      Also in case anyone is interested, my Rou wearing the Sport Boots by Facets, here (terribly dark photo!).

    4. Enzyme, that is really useful. Thanks for that. The last they used isn't quite foot-shaped, which was a major concern, but it really doesn't look too bad, does it? I have to stop being such a realism perfectionist. Which size did you get? And the Releaserain boots look a bit more modern than I need, and a little like biker boots. I need Victorian riding boots, so I think I will opt for the Facets ones.

      And you didn't make those PVC trousers, did you? They are just :o :D. Pattern? *Looks pleading*

      Those Arabian slippers look excellent too, dhawktx. Great resource.

      ETA: Actually, just had a thought. If action figure clothes fit in breadth but not in length, I already have a pair of PVC trousers here. If he is to be wearing boots, no one will see that his trouser legs are halfway up his calves. I would still be interested in info about yours, though, Enzyme.

      ETA2: And, Gallye, how do you get hold of Chewin? I have seen his(?) photos on the Ip site, but I don't think I have seen him here. And what sort of price is a custom CLine wig, if you don't mind me asking?
       
    5. MadamMauMau, I got the Matt size for both, however the sports boots are about 1cm (or two!) bigger than the riding boots.
      They don't look too terrible in person but they are not as realistic-looking as 1:6 military shoes, if that is what you are after.
      They are a lot more fashion-dollie-looking but it's not too bad if you know that's what they are. ^.~ The ones by Releaserain
      are indeed modern, they were called "engineer-boots" if I'm not mistaken but they are a lot more realistic looking and less
      "saggy-looking" on the CL foot they are pretty close to 1:6 in terms of realism and fit (although a bit of a pain to take off).

      Action figure clothes might fit if you get clothes meant for HT Dutch (or TTM20) body, but I think that might be harder than
      actually finding clothes meant for CL boys! I made the PVC pants using James' pattern for SD-sized boys I resized it to fit CL males.
      I believe I have the resized pattern saved on my external drive but I'm not 100% sure that I saved it, I'll look for it if you are interested
      although I have to warn you that it will only work if you use super stretchy material (I suck at resizing!). Or I can link you to the original
      pattern if you want to resize it yourself. Just let me know and I'll look for it for you. (:

    6. I am always after as much realism as I can get and action figure stuff sets the standard. However, I am aware that there are limited options out there for dolls of this size, so I have to compromise my standards. The riding boots don't look 100% realistic to me, but I don't think I will find anything else in that style. I have a number of action fig riding boots but, even with female foot parts so they can be got on, I suspect they will be too short on the leg. I can give it a go, I guess.

      I have both a TTM20 and the orginal T800, both of whom have some gorgeous leather trousers (apair each of the MMS and DX T-800 ones). Trouble is, that is all they have and they won't give them up without a fight. I will try them on when my Rou arrives and, if they fit, there might still be a few pairs of DX10 trousers floating around for an almost sensible price.

      ETA: Ah, just had a look on eBay. $30 for either version T-800 trousers. Whoof! Have to think seriously about that. Such a shame the jackets would be too short in the arm. That would be one amazing outfit.

      And, yes, I would be very interested in the pattern, any way that you can get it to me. Cheers.
       
    7. I know what you mean! When I first got my Rou I purchased ACE's black combat boots thinking they might fit
      since CP tends to sculpt tiny feet (in proportion to the rest of the body) but they didn't fit! I was quite upset
      because they are so gorgeously well-made they could be human shoes someone magically shrunk. It's not easy
      finding nice-looking shoes for male-dolls in any hobby but the 1:6-military one (sadly not all are vegan-friendly,
      so I don't own many myself either way). If I could, I would own a whole bunch of 1:6 male-shoes, just because of
      how incredibly well-made they are. The clothes are amazing as well, not only realistic but the fasteners are proportioned.
      One of my biggest pet peeves are proportions of fasteners, but that doesn't seem to be something everyone minds (in this hobby).
      I also got the TTM20, I was thinking of replacing my Redfield's original bod, but that didn't work!!! S.T.A.R.S. pants are too tight for the thunder-thighs
      (if only Redfield's clothes didn't go for over $60 on ebay, not paying that for 1:6 pants no matter how well-made they are!).


      I didn't save the resized pattern but here is the link to the original James' pattern. I hope it helps. (:

    8. Thanks for that link.

      Yes, action figure scaling is perfect, even if it isn't made for the type of play that BJDs are designed for, such as dressing and undressing. But I will try all my action fig stuff on my Rou and post the results. Hopefully it will help someone here.

      And Redfield looks rather bullnecked on the TTM-20, I thought (I tried it for someone), so perhaps it is not all bad.
       
    9. I've previously posted a free pattern for some slip-on hip hugger CLine male pants here (better with moderate stretch fabrics - these were made with a thin stretch denim): http://dhawktx.deviantart.com/art/Simple-BJD-Chicline-guys-Hip-Hugger-pants-pattern-332710323

      And I did a comparison of Action Figure shoes on Cline males using the CLine girl's feet: http://www.flickr.com/photos/dhawktx/sets/72157625806631010/with/5349056368/

      And there's one group of Facets by Marcia ankle boots that the guys can wear with their own feet! LOL!

      http://www.flickr.com/photos/dhawktx/sets/72157626100078438/with/5676736259/

      EDIT: Whups - he was wearing the girl flat feet. D'Oh!
       
    10. No problem, I hope the pattern works for you! I also hope your action fig stuff fits on Rou, I'm sure it would help a lot of people
      who can't (don't wan to) sew or don't know where else to look for clothes for CL males.

      That's the thing about dolls, even if you try to think of them as not being fashion-type-dolls, they still pretty much are and that's the
      type of realism you get not only in the sculpting of the dolls themselves but also the accessories and clothes that are available for them.

      I think the TTM20's neck is too-long for Redfield but with the S.T.A.R.S. shirt and vest on it doesn't look that bad,
      his original ("Dutch") body has a neck just as thick but shorter, problem is the pants won't go past the thighs. Now I got an extra body I didn't need! Lol!
      If re/dressing rubber bodies wasn't a such a chore, I would remove (again) Redfield's clothes and try them on Rou but I rather not right now
      (the heat-wave here is not helping things either).

    11. For the Hazelstreet clothes, what size fits best?

      Antoinette/cami
      Tyle
      Ellowyne
      FR16
       
    12. From my reading (I have about three pages of notes I have taken from this thread. Sad but true), Antoinette sized is generally the best bet. No idea on that brand in particular, though.

      Thanks for those links, dhawktx, particularly the pattern. I can't sew, but it is amazing what you can force yourself to do when there is a nekkie dolly to be sorting out.

      Enzyme, yes, perhaps it is the length of the neck, although the head socket wouldn't fit over the top of the neck when I tried it. Anyway, too much neck one way or another. And my Rou arrived this morning. I am waiting for a quiet moment to enjoy opening him. Let's see for how long I can hold off. The I will try on ALL my action figure clothes and report back. T-800 is getting stripped down, I tell you.
       
    13. MadamMauMau, congratulations & good luck! I hope at least the pants fit, it would be easier to disguise the length of pants than shirts, at least! (:


      Ashbet, they have such a nice color selection! Too bad the irises appear to be more than half the size of the whole eyeball.
      Although not everyone here minds large irises (think I'm in the minority here, actually). I hope to see some of them in the males
      regardless, I might cave and purchase a pair myself, even if I never use them. Thanks for the heads up and for posting the links!

    14. Yus, irises too big for me. I shall shortly be making another order from our lovely German eye-maker.

      I am repeating a lot of what has already been said, but a quick review of action figure stuff on a male CLine.

      - Normal trousers do not fit. No way. They are too narrow and can't be pulled up beyond mid-thigh. Trousers built for Hot Toys Big Arnie bodies (either version T-800, Dutch, possibly Chris Redfield) can be pulled on with effort if there is a bit of stretch, like the T-800 leather trousers. They will probably stretch further with use. They end about mid calf, which would probably be OK if they are being used to tuck into knee high boots. And they make his bum look MAGNIFICENT! I took them off mine pretty quickly as I didn't want to ruin the trousers of my now very rare figure, but I might see if I can get a pair off eBay and will post a picture.

      - Tops. T-shirts are fine width-wise, but tend to be a little short. Shirts are very tight and can not be done up, although the open-shirted look did look pretty good. Sleeves are also too short, but I rolled them up and that worked.

      - Shoes/boots. As has already been noted, all fitted girl feet fine, but not boy. I put my girl's flat feet on my boy for the sake of getting some combat boots on and I think he looked disproportional, as though he was about to fall over.

      - Hats are just too small. Shame.

      - Belts are fine. Look good.

      - Glasses and sunglasses can be got on, but are tight around the head and tend to ping off. They also look rather small.

      So, yes, none of that helps a great deal, does it? If I have any further revelations, I will share them. I haven't tried any of my boy figure stuff on my Ino. Some of that might work.
       
    15. Thanks for the link! I think the Spicy Short is even nicer as a guy cut - not so much fiber that it's too fluffy!
       
    16. I need to get a few shots of this but raided the BF's fig stash and have a few things that fit well on my girl. Some stuff made to fit 1/6 ladies of the bulky Cygirl style will fit if its stretchy. Also, this is gonna sound crazy but theres a set of Playboy dolls with lingere, robes, slippers, etc that will sometimes fit. Apparently they're fairly cheap on Ebay so if you're looking for that, there you go (the dolls are pretty weird, like most commercially made dolls of real people)
       
    17. I am amazed that CYGirl stuff fits. The size difference is huge and I didn't even think to try. I might still have some bits floating around (I sold all my femfigs). I wil give it a go. And, yes, pictures of that would be great. And of the Playboy stuff. What is the quality like on those as compared to, say, Barbie?
