IpleHouse JiD Mini Discussion Part 19

She is very pretty!

I stumbled across a photo I took of Samuel (aka Vain) a while back and never seem to have goten around to post. It's the same Boris doll as earlier in the comparison pictures. This is what he normally looks like.

 

Oh, I love that sculpt, he's gorgeous @Lillith

 

Thanks! I like this sculpt a lot, he's just that right mix of mature and stylized. He is clearly not a child, nor does he have huge manga eyes, but he still looks right next to ordinary slim minis. Not many male sculpts out there hits that sweet spot.

 

Agreed, @Lillith , there is a sweet spot KIDs can hit with other MSD dolls

 

I also love how my JIDs work with other MSDs. my Kyle is partnered with one of my Naraes....

 

A very good example.

 

And my JID Kassia is paired with Adrian, a Limhwa Mono...


I also have two JID couples, each with an Owen, but all the other JID ladies are single because there were no other suitable JID guys, and I draw the line at 2 Owens.

 

I always just LOVE your photos @MB Lilac ! Your costumes are impeccable! lovely!

 

Your Kassia is gorgeous and I'm very tempted to add one to my wishlist.

 

@IngieBee - Thank you. I've always loved costuming, which is why I started collecting the more realistic BJDs in the first place, so I could dress them.
@Haven_Of_Dolls336 - Thanks. Both their costumes were originally made for two art dolls some thirty years ago, but the dolls themselves were not very attractive, and being the same size as my MSD size dolls, I thought I could remake them to fit. Adrian was first, and since he was Fair skin, I ordered Kassia in Normal as well. Here she is in one of my favourite photos of her...

 

(☆▽☆) Wow she looks beautiful!

 

Thanks. Another of my favourite photos of Kassia...seated by the window with the sun streaming in....

 

You are amazing @MB Lilac

 

Thanks. I've been shooting Kassia's back story for a Fairy Tale she's starring in, and I chose Steve (one of my Owens), and Iris (I) to be her parents, the King and Queen....

 

Awww, so sweet!

 

Possibly off topic, but where did you get the baby? I hope to give my own JID (and his future Minisup wife) a child at some point, and I was searching for a baby doll to use as such.

 

The baby is a tiny porcelain doll (Kaiser baby) I painted at a porcelain doll painting workshop I attended decades ago. I've used a Supia Baby Sena as a baby before, but wanted a more 'newborn' looking baby for an upcoming story. Here are Steve and Iris in Victorian times, with baby Sena...

Baby Sena (Supia Doll) is the perfect size, and I've also used her as a baby for my FIDs, but she doesn't look 'newborn' enough for when another FID couple has twins soon. Anyways, I have two of the tiny Kaiser babies and they will portray their newborn twins, and then I have two MYou children (Dudu & Feng Linger) to be the toddlers when the babies get a little older..

 

Thank you! This was very helpful.

 

Oh wow! I haven't been in this thread since 2012 I think? Its nice to see some familiar and new faces here. I still have my two JID girls from 11 years ago. Mind you they went through many looks since then.

Spoiler: Sorry for the large photo

 

I think this size doll has become an afterthought with Iplehouse, especially since they introduced the FID size. Personally I really love my JIDs, and would still welcome a new more mature looking guy, as I have several single JID Moms who would love a guy in their lives. But I doubt it will ever happen.
