Fairyland MiniFee MNF discussion part 67

Oh wow, fantasy resin colors! This is not good news for my wallet lol. I was planning on getting a Lami soon but I may have to put her off for awhile!

I could be reading it wrong, but I understood the notice to say that they are re-releasing MNF DES (along with Klaus and Erda) and she will be available in both regular skin and the special skins. Additionally, as an event head they are rereleasing Soo Dark Elf A in the special skins.

This caught my eye too because DES is one of my favorites and would be super tempting in blue! Actually, I am hoping for green the next time they do fantasy colors, too.

 

@brightberry - I love your crew, they look amazing!

@xxxsaturnxxx - Your boy is gorgeous! I wish Klaus would return to the main line up.

@AnnC - Your Risse is beautiful. I think she is definitely an underrated sculpt.

@Dolly - I am hoping that I just read it wrong! I would rather have a green DES than a blue DES, but without know if/when she'll be released again and in what skintones, I would maybe have to have her in tan.

 

She is gorgeous!! I love the props; it's so casual and cute.

 

Thank you❤️. I was never a fan of Risse until I had her in hand. Now, she is my fave!

 

omg, that little barefoot wine prop is too cute

 

Thank you. I made a white wine was as well. My dolls like to drink

 

Omg fantasy colors is unfortunately right up my alley… I had been looking at Youpla to get one but now I think I’ll hold off to get a blue girl. Deciding which sculpt is going to be the hardest choice…

I currently have Ria, Hwayu, Sircca, Alan, Sirin and Lami. What are your faves? What will you choose?

 

The new colors look really great!
And El Elf is really tempting me....
I have just one doubt - if we get the event head, we cannot get just a separate body for it right? It would have to be bodyless or share with another doll and i do not like that very much.

I will have to think about it... i might not be able to resist El...

 

Does anyone have an older dark Soo next to a lookback dark Soo? I was hoping they had the newer Dark Soo but used the classic sculpt instead. (Not a fan of the older minifee proportions)

 

Oh dear, I am very tempted to get a tan Dark Elf Soo. She was not in my dolly plans, but they are offering faceups for the regular resin colors (sad that they aren't for the fantasy colors, but I understand why).

The blue resin is also calling my name, I could have a little fairy water sprite. I can't decide. Does anybody know if MSC works okay for fantasy-colored resin? I would have to do her faceup myself.

 

@Nabbs where as I do not do face ups (though want to try my hand at it), I have a friend that does, and treats grey and colored resin like tan resins. Short answer yes MSC does work, but it can look cloudy on tans and colored resin. There is a sealant that Volks sells (and I sadly forget the name of) that is meant for tan resins and works better to clearly seal tan and colored resin my friend swears by that stuff. I know there is another brand of sealant that is also good on tans/darker resins, but my scatter brain can't think of it's name either. If I were you I'd do a forum search for sealants and colored resins to see if any other threads pop up with better answers.

 

Thank you for this info!! I still have a tan Lookback Shiwoo I need to paint so I need to get some more sealant anyway.

 

Vallejo Premium matte varnish (comes in a spray can) also works on tan resin and presumably on colorful variants.

 

You can order a minifee body separately!

 

I love those fantasy colors, but really wanted a blue Iset so I'm safe. Phew!!

Also I've had great results with the Army Painter matte varnish. It's a bit more of a satin finish, but it's not overly shiny and there's no clouding.

 

I can order the fantasy color body separately? That's good news. I thought it was just the full a la carte dolls.
I'll have to take a closer look. Thank you!

 

I don't know about the fantasy colors. I do know that you can order minifee bodies separately. You might have to investigate on the website.

 

From what I can tell, you can only order the full a la carte dolls in the fantasy colors. Hands and feet can be ordered separate though.

 

I might be needing a gray Hwayu, my poor wallet.

Does anyone know if fairyline bodies can fit either aline or moe heel feet? It might influence which body I get for her lol.

 

I might be wrong on this as I do not have a Fairyline body, but I think the body is pretty much identical to aline except that the torso can be separated, so with this in mind, I would think it can fit aline heel feet
