IMPL dolls Star, Model & Idol Discussion 16

@Chameleon - yeah, this is the first Impldoll pre-order I'm going to pass on. Fingers crossed they make a 68 cm version with more muscle!
She is lovely, but I agree - this is more of a "toned" body than a muscular one. She's like a yoga or Pilates instructor.

 

wondering if anyone here bought the 2023 Kamara and got the eyes that were offered with her?
i would like to see an owner photo of the eyes if anyone has them thank you so much!

 

I actually bought the eyes and put them in a different doll, they're really pretty. Very green which I wasn't expecting. They're also quite small, probably 14/5 I wager. Once she's back from her faceup I'll post more pics

 

this really helped me a lot, thank you so much! and the iris size is really helpful too
I've wound up with some grey ones somehow.
back to eye shopping then, i liked that abalone shell type green a lot in the pictures

 

Ofc it's quite limey in person if that helps too The impldoll eyes seem to be very small to fit the eyewells. Kamara's eye wells are rather narrow so it doesn't surprise me.

 

I am more and more tempted to try impldoll sd girls probably will get the new body I always got msd, have one dream valley SD, still in the box so it's my first intentional SD venture wirh Impldoll

Do you guys maybe have any info/photos of impldoll bodies with feeple heads, please?

I always struggle with sizing of clothes etc what general sizes from volks or other shops would work on new muscle body?

 

I don't have feeple heads, but I have a fair amount of impldoll bodies, like the model body. I think measurement wise it will resemble the model body, and with that body I buy 1/3rd boy sized clothes and custom sized where I can. More clothes makers are making that size in clothes too.

 

I had my FeePle60 Juri 2012 on the Star body (second version). She worked well on it. I no longer have her on it, but I did enjoy the look.
The boy is Iplehouse SID Theo

 

Feeple65 Angela snatched Imara's Model body right out from under her (Fairyland normal, Impldoll "real", near perfect match, totally unplanned):

Impldoll Star Model body

 

My free hands just showed up randomly today lol. I completely forgot I even applied for them.

 

My sexy Minerva return from the face up artist. The artist did an amazing job capturing what I wanted. I requested something similar to the drag queen Bianca del Rio. Minerva is a woman that loves make up so much. She also love big puffy hair

 

Does anyone have both the Star model and Star female bodies? I'm trying to decide which one to go for and wanted to know if the only difference is the star female body being slightly thinner measurement wise. I really like the poseability of the Star model body that I've seen so far, and the Star female body looks good too, but I want to be sure they're on the same level when it comes to posing!

 

I personally don't have the normal 62 but I'm pretty sure they are v similar with slight differences. The fifth photo here is p good at showing the differences Impldoll on Instagram: "1/3 Female basic body coming soon,we will release in March.❤️❤️ #impldoll #bjd #bjddoll #bjdphoto #bjdphotography #bjdmakeup #bjdfaceup #dollmakeup #dollfaceup #dollpainting #fashiondolls #impldollbody #balljointeddoll #doll #dolls"

 

Thank you! I was mostly curious about the thigh joints, since a video I found showed they have different ridges (the basic 1/3 having only one(?) ridge versus the star model body having around 4) but they seem to be able to hold the same / similar poses... :] Do you have the star model body? Do you find that you use the top most ridges for any poses, or mainly the lower ones?

 

I have two of them and uh I think if you want to have her like really do some crazy shit the thigh joint grooves are helpful. Their jointing system now is super solid so either of the two would be a good investment. When I have my muscle body in I can give more of my thoughts then

 

So, I really like the new muscle body and Moira head but I collect primarily realistic dolls (iplehouse and SartoriaJ). I've checked measurements and the body and head are a similar size to my big SartoriaJ girl, it's just the heads appear to be shaped differently and I'm not sure if that will bother me or not. Does anyone have a picture of an impldoll girl next to a SartoriaJ girl?

Eta: Also, I've read the wait times can really vary. Does ordering a face up make a big difference in wait times?

 

@Loganberry MaleficentMrsofEvil had shared pictures of an Iplehouse hybrid a few pages back you can reference. In my opinion, the torso looks well-proportioned. However, it’s the arms and calves that will look proportionately lanky if that bothers you.

 

It isn't to hybrid. I have a SartoriaJ SD and I just like my dolls to look in proportion next to each other. I know the Moira head and SartoriaJ heads are the same circumference but from pics it looks like SartoriaJ heads are longer and the impldoll heads rounder.

 

Ah, I see! Moira is a very beautiful sculpt, but she is a lot more stylized than the average IH and SJ sculpt. If you love her, I say go for it! Like people in real life, we come in all shapes and sizes

 

Relieved that my 68 idol body came in after the USA x China tariffs and shipping ban debacles. It's so pretty and goes well with the head I wanted it for!! I am anticipating some minor fomo I'm going to feel for the upcoming 68 model version... I really like the wider shoulder look.

The body is in mia white skin, the head is luts white skin(I think year 2020). I think it's a near perfect match, the luts head looks like it has a shade is beige compared to the body imo. I did have to slightly mod the head neck hole because it did not sit well on the body's 10" neck. I really prefer this neck size vs the 9"- Sometimes you just got to make things 'work'
