1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Iplehouse EID and SID Discussion Part 16

Jan 22, 2015

    1. @IngieBee just looked on the site and yes, it showing that eid woman is 65.5cm tall. so I think so she is 65 cm when on heel feet.

    2. I just got my first EID this week. It's an old Jessica and she is so beautiful.
      But she's arrived very loose so I tried to restring her today. There are still some issues so I am not sure if I need to tighten her string some more. One she can't sit and two her feet can't seem to stay in place they tend to point weird directions. It looks like she broke her ankle. Do you know whether this is just the result of a bad restringing job? Or is the EID body in general bad with sitting poses?
       
    3. Honestly, I think that the older bodies seem to be pretty bad at posing, but then again, maybe its me. I would try tightening her string first. Twyla's feet do seem to point in weird directions sometimes, unless I put them in the groove of her ankles and turn the mobility joints in her thighs. She sits okay, but her hips and legs don't always meet when she does. They kind of pull out a little, or sometimes need to be pulled out to get her to sit right.



      @IngieBee, it says "62.5cm" under Asa's description, which is why I'm confused.

      I wish I could remember where I saw that she is 65cm at, it was probably on her original Luna Tamer page, but the information is gone now. :( I took size and length notes when I got her back in 2014 so I could get clothes that fit her, so that's another reason why I know she's 65cm tall.


      Do you mind linking me to where it says that, @Anita2006? I've searched and can't seem to find it. *_*

    4. Thank you for the advise. I've restrung her now and I might have strung her too tightly now. But it's way better than before. She can kinda sit now but only when I use her hands as support.

      Currently I do not trust her to stand without support at all though.

      Regardless she is absolutely beautiful and I am super inspired to sew lots of things for her. I've already cut out a basic white top that I plan to sew together tomorrow. And I definitely need to get her a proper wig and shoes.

    5. @laquaza she looks beutiful, i have sid old body Grace and don't have any issues with passing. she can sit properly and stand as a rock, but I'm waiting now two new dolls from iplehouse and one of them is EID bibiane and hope so I will not get any issues as well.
      Yours doll is beautiful. Clothes fits her perfectly.

    6. As far as the older bodies go, I only have the JIDs and those seemed solid as a rock. my worst standing doll is the Supia 60dj but I'll still get her to stand...eventually, LOL. With all my dolls, though, I have to make sure their legs are properly lined up and that gets really hard when they wear pants :P

      @laquaza , your girl is gorgeous, that dress is beautiful too, and I love how she's walking with her child :D

    7. Maybe I am just really bad at restringing. It's also possible. Fingers crosses your's will be a good poser. But I think the new EID body might be better than the old one.
      And thank you very much. I am just glad they actually fit her. I made them before she's arrived. That's also the main reason I chose a gathered style around the bust. Then it doesn't have to sit perfectly.

      Thank you so much for your kind words. I am glad you like it.
       
    8. it really is! I have EID, HID, SID and nYID girls on the new body, and I actually quite like their poseability--the old EID man body that I have on the other hand, stringing him was an experience, and it barely stopped his butt from perpetual dislocation. my goal is to make him an okay poser (through kind of extreme modding). The old EID girl I've handles was better than him, but the new bodies have definitely fixed some issues!

    9. Oh yah, I forgot, on my old JIDs and I know it was the same for the EIDs is that the peanuts would not dislodge and it would be a royal pain to use the double joints! Someone did a mod involving watchband pins and I bought some, but never used them, as I got too scared, ROFL, I really should do it now, I've become so much more brave lately :D
       
    10. Not a problem, happy to help! :XD:I'm wondering if you are right, that she may be too tight. Twyla sits fine, even with me having to sometimes pull her legs out away from her butt sometimes.

      You're correct, your Jessica is "absolutely beautiful!" Congrats again! :D Does she have a name yet?

      @IngieBee, I was told to take the inside arm parts out to improve arm movements, and I've not had much trouble since. I'm curious about the watchband pin method you're talking about, what is it supposed to do?

    11. I will restring her again next week. Fingers crossed it will all work out. And I am tempted to take the inner armparts out as well. It took me a while to realize she's technically double jointed ;).

      Thank you. Her name's Katalin.


      Your Solovet is very pretty :love. I love the glasses and it's very cool how the cape fits multiple sizes.
       
    12. OH man, @ResinRapture , your dolls are all so cool, and those glasses are just such a cherry on the cake! She looks so cool!
       
    13. @laquaza Thank you.

      @IngieBee Thank you- she'll love you for that. She's a financial advisor and people usually think she's a bit uptight. She'd love to be cool :)

    14. @ResinRapture she has a beatnik feel to her, or more recent version would be a hipster?? Hope that's not bad :D I like :D
       
    15. :nosebleed I was a bit confused by seeing 2 different threads of iplehouse discussion here.

      congrats @laquaza on getting your Jessica, what a beautiful sculpt, her mobility seems fine to me after restring.

      @ResinRapture pretty lady with very nice cape! Her eye shadow colour goes super well with her cape's colour :chibi

      As Ada was released for the first time during last summer, I wonder if there's a new SID EID or HID coming soon :blush
