hybrid of iplehouse JID and Dream Valley B4-04

Aug 14, 2023

    1. I have an iplehouse Daniel that I'm interested in hybriding onto a DV B4-04 body. I don't know how this would look though, since the oriignal iplehouse JID body is kind of bulky compared to DV's body.

      I really dislike how the iplehouse body poses, and want to keep my boy and put him on a different body that can pose.

      Does anyone here have anything close to a JID boy head to put on a DV B4-04 body? Or something with the same size differences? Or is anyone experienced in hybriding that can let me know if this idea is not a bad one?

      For reference:

      JID body:
      • Weight: 700g
      • Height: 46cm
      • Neck Circumference: 8.5cm
      • Shoulder Width: 12cm
      • Arm Length: 16cm 16.5cm
      • Arm Circumference: 5cm
      • Wrist Circumference: 8.2cm
      • Chest Circumference: 23.5cm
      • Waist Circumference: 17.5cm
      • Hip Circumference: 23cm
      • Thigh Circumference: 13cm
      • Waist to Toe: 27.5cm
      • Ankle Circumference: 6.1cm
      • Foot Length: 6.5cm

      DV B4-04 Body:
      • Height 46.5cm
      • Neck Circumference 7cm
      • Shoulder Length 9cm
      • Arm Length 15cm
      • Bust Size 18.5cm
      • Waistline 13.9cm
      • Hipline 18.4cm
      • Leg Length 27.6cm
      • Thigh Circumference 11.4cm
      • Calf Circumference 8.5cm
      • Feet Length 6cm
      • Foot Breadth 1.5cm
       
    2. As someone who used to own that body and a JID head, I do not think this would work. I can't show pictures, but judging by the size of the torso in my hand from what I remember I think it'd look bobble-headed. It's a very small body in proportion to your hand, and the head itself is more realistic so it might look strange.

      I would also like to point out that the bust size on the body is 18.5cm and is smaller than Daniel's head, which is 18.8cm according to Iplehouse. For a better kind of visualization, here is one of Iplehouse's CREAA boys which has similar proportions to what you're going for. The head is only 16cm.
       
    3. I have JID Daniel (normal pink) and DV B4-04 boy (normal yellow). I could try to put the head on DV B4-04 and took some pics tomorrow. It will be probably some neck gap because of the necks sizes difference.

      BTW I'm often put my Jid boys heads on Raccondoll boy body. Proportions looks quite good for me and te resin match is perfect but RD body isn't the slim body as DV B4-04.

    4. Are there any other bodies I could hybrid with an Iplehouse boy head? I really dislike how the body I have him on now poses, and want to find something else for him. I've never owned an iplehouse other than him, and I got him secondhand, so I don't know if I could buy a different JID body and have a better experience, but as it stands right now this body and I are not friends but I'm having a hard time finding possible hybriding options.

    5. I was just looking into this, I think Miracle doll has a 46cm boy body that has a 8cm neck I was looking at. The resin match may be something to look into.. Iplehouse heads are notoriously hard to hybridize, so good luck!

    7. What a shame! It's such a nice body ): Do you have any bodies that an iplehouse JID boy head would look good on?
