Glorydoll Lucy/Louis & Karin/Karl discussion

Does anyone know how long it usually takes GD to restock on option parts? I've asked GD about a month ago about the Karl/Karin head but it doesn't look like she's getting restocked anytime soon... ^^;

[ETA]

The head was finally restocked and I've ordered my Karin!

 

I've been searching for the perfect body for Twilight (Lucy) for such a long time. And, success! I finally found it! At least I think it's perfect. I have her on a Doll Family small bust body. Just love the proportions! And this body poses fantastically. The only thing I'm not crazy about is that the elbow joints could be a little prettier. But that's not enough to stop me from loving this body and recommending it. The resin is oh so smooth and the body comes sanded. You can get this body in three colors: normal yellow, normal pink, and white. This is the normal yellow and it's very pale. Twilight's head is milky. The match is close enough so that I can't tell the difference in bright inside light. But in bright outside light, the body does seem a tad darker and more yellow than the head. But since I never take Twilight in bright outside light or just on very rare occasions, I'm totally good with the resin match.

Some pictures (nudity alert):





I love how graceful the body is. And one more picture with clothes as Twilight contemplates the joy of a ray of sunlight on a winter day:



This body also is really terrific with Supia heads too. I had a dreaming Roda head on this body until Twilight stole it. I'm going to order another.

Just thought you might be interested.

Looks good Jay. What skin tone is your Glorydoll head and the DF body? I also need a body for my Lucy head.

 

jay the body looks amazing! im also wondering what skin tones. (EDIT: oh! you already said the skintones. oops ) i plan to order a karin someday and was worried about the glory doll body. do you have a link to the doll family web page?

 

Oh, awesome! I've been thinking of getting Myrtle a new body, her default Glorydoll one has so many posing problems. I might have to take the idea from you!

 

Twilight's head is the milky skin tone and the DF body is normal yellow. I'd be curious to see a Glorydoll healthy with the DF normal yellow to know if that's a perfect match. It's always tricky getting a perfect match when mixing heads and bodies from different makers.

Thanks, octobercrow. Actually, I'm not sure about the website for DF, but you can get them on Ebay from seller jeeryrama (I think that's how it's spelled). It takes a month or so to get the body, but the seller is very good about communicating. In fact, when I got this body it came with two right hands. So I messaged the seller and he(she) just requested a picture. As soon as I sent the picture I heard back right away that they would send me a new hand, no problems. And I received a full set of hands really fast.

I struggled with Lucy's original body, too. Wiring the legs helped with sitting somewhat. But, in the end, I just didn't want to mess with it any more. Please go ahead and take the idea from me--that's why I posted this. I wanted to share because we doll friends have to stick together!

Jay

 

She looks beautiful on that body Jay!

Funny, I've never had any problems with the Glorydoll body once I restrung it, except for the hands, but I'm going to modify them.

 

Really? My girl will barely stand at all. Perhaps I just need to mess with the stringing and suede her knees.

 

Thanks for that - sorry that I missed it in the post, must've just half read it and too busy looking at pretty pictures! My girl is healthy skin, so not sure which would match it. Anyone know how much difference there is between the milky and healthy skin tones in real life?

 

well they do have a smaller head than most SD´s, mine I had to put on a bobobie body.

 

Jay- Does this body match/look good with Volks girls? I love your photos You make me want to add Lucy back to my want list. I just took her off but now I might have to put her back.

 

Glorydoll doesn't match Volks sadly. Their resin colour is paler and more pinkish than Volks.

 

i wonder if Angel Regions girl body would be a match. its petite enough to match this head just wondering about the resin I know Angel Region ns matches dollstown Oriental skintone.. hmm anyone know???

 

I gotta pull this thread up again since I just knew of BJDs not too long ago...

I'M SO IN LOVE WITH GOTH LUCY!!!! (>_<) I really wonder if GloryDoll will put her up on sale again. If not I'd have to lurke around the Marketplace.

Anyway, does any1 have any idea if GloryDoll will go well with AOD body? I'm thinking of getting Lucy 1st then Goth Lucy if she comes up again.

Have read from the 1st post and it seems the only recomendations are
GloryDoll with DollTown & GloryDoll with Doll Family so far? Can any1 do a hybrid for me please?

I'm really thankful to all who have contributed. (Although it just makes me more desperate to get a glorydoll! ;P)

 

Ask Glorydoll if they have plans for another Goth Lucy, that's what I did when I wanted one. They told me they were, and I sat there checking their page for about a month and a half before they released her. XD

I don't know about a match with AOD, as I've never seen their NS irl.

 

That's what I'm doing too ;P Asking them if they'd release Goth Lucy again. But I havnt heard from them D:

So... So far the best match is Dollstown and Glorydoll? -idontreallyfancytheglorydollbody-

 

They only answer their Q&A board once or twice a week, so keep waiting, they'll answer eventually.

From what info is in this thread, dollstown and dollfamily seem to be the closest.

 

2weeks? ! (eyes pop out!) Whao... I guess I can only wait D:

any idea if glorydoll's resin cn go with domuya? i really like the domuya body
