Introducing my newest LittleFee. I think she better hurry up and read that book. It might come in handy! IMG_5121 by Jane K, on Flickr
@Rinoa depends. It's not totally clear what body you're pairing with which head. Maybe a few more specifics? Mostly, you just don't know until you try, in my experience. @Dollquest Uh, oh...that little one looks like trouble! What a darling little lady you have there.
Thank you @Vindalootoo . I really like the Mio sculpt and couldn't resist her when she came up in the marketplace. Yes, that little one is trouble! They also just arrived and is making themselves known to all the others.
I'm probably going to use a Bluefairy Jr Blossom body as I've done with the one with the Chicline headback (although not 100% sure if their resin will match anymore). I'll test it out as I have the single jointed BF body. I was planning on getting the newer double jointed one for both my old hybrid and this new one. I was considering the Dream Valley 1/6 girl body but saw a video where the person modded their headback to do it, but they said because the string and S-hook wouldn't fit so was thinking a smaller s-hook or something might work.
You say you used the chicline headback...do you mean the one they make to use an LTF on the chicline or the actual chicline head? I've never had the LTF head back off the body, but since that chicline one is designed to be used on the LTF, I'd think it's very similar. I put that one on a Doll Family H 35cm and had to fill the hole with apoxie in order for a simply s-hook to work. link
Yes sorry I get confused, definitely the one designed for LTF to go on Chicline. I bought it directly from FL. LTF headbacks don't have the hole the chicline one does. I didn't need to mod it to fit an s-hook tho. The other one I've got thought is a LTF one, so would need subtractive mods possibly. I'll have to get it out and try it and see.
Ah! That's what I used in the picture. The LTF head back is quite different, but subtraction is easy. Resin sands very easily. I've never had the head itself off, but it looks to me like all you might have to do to accommodate an s-hook connection would be to widen the existing slit and put in a cross-ditch to lock the s-hook. Dremel w/b easiest and quickest for the cross-ditch, but a simple file would work. Good luck!
Don't be scared! I used a dremel-type crittur for the first time today and I'm in love. I'm not sure about posting links to actual products, but what I got was this guy JEDIA Cordless Rotary Tool Kit 5-Speed Variable and USB Charging Cable Mini Power Rotary Tools, 3.7V with 45pcs Accessories for Cutting, Drilling, Sanding, Engraving, Polishing & DIY Crafts (Grey) About $25 from Amazon. It's small, light, battery operated and very easy to control.
The eyes I ordered for Ante finally arrived! They are the first resin eyes I have bought. More things are finally getting close so I’ll take full pictures soon but here are the eyes set. I got the eyes from Bhiner and there’s a seller on Etsy with the same pictures for nearly twice the price so I wasn’t sure what I would get, but I’m happy with them.
@NineOneThree Is it these?And which size did you buy? I'm totally in love with them. These are the first I've seen that might work for Wiishu and I've been looking for eight years!
Yes! They are size 14. There’s a seller on Etsy selling them for over $50, I couldn’t believe the difference in price. There are some other eyes on there from other shops I was interested in but I only bought one to try Bhiner out.
Thanks for sharing where they're from. I've been looking for purple 14mm eyes for my Littlefee Shiwoo for ages (to upgrade from the basic acrylic purples)!
Those are more purple than the ones I have and I was trying to decide between the two. These are the other ones I was looking at, I like the star series but I’m having trouble deciding which ones I want… 香薰专柜特卖会 from taobao | 香薰专柜特卖会 - BJD Accessories Store I made a little hat out of a sock today. The weather is bad so lightning isn’t great but when I complete her full look I’ll show the hat better.
