Leekeworld [Limited Edition] Kiel Ent discussion

maudib - congrats on your girl, she looks great! Did you back-light the horns? They look like they are glowing. Love the background on the name, thanks for sharing, it's always interesting.

 

Thanks....

There are 2 light fixtures way above her head. On either side. But I also did a filter in iPhoto...it's called edge blur.

I guess It does look like its glowing.

 

I love her outfit! Did you make it?

 

I wish..Especially seeing it in person....i could have totally made it. Don't get me wrong...it's quality and the materials are nice. I'm just .being lazy about sourcing fabrics and trying to sit down and sew. It was a Instock mint on card purchase. It's a Angell Studio dress.

Everything fit except for the socks and head band the set came with.

 

I was wondering what eye sizes you guys use for your ents?
On the official site it says: "Eye : 14~16mm LG-Glass eyes"

But i was wondering what is the actual default size they wear?
Would they be able to wear 12mm?
thanks

 

raionheart - As I recall, most of them defaulted to 16mm. The sleeping Pumpkin was shown with a default 14mm, and I suspect the actual Kiel head sculpt may have been as well, but I'm not positive.

I've found that either size seems to work pretty well, though there are so many head sculpts among them that it differs a bit. (For example, I've got a Happy here with 16mm eyes, and a Cutie here with 14mm.)

As for 12mm, I'm not really sure it would work without some gapping, though I do expect that depends on the head sculpt again. I've got Happy, Cutie, Sweetie and Soda - if you were thinking of any of those, I'd be happy to try some 12mm eyes in later today to see how it works, but it might not be relevant to other head sculpts with different eye shapes/sizes.

 

I own a Kiel and I was surprised the default purple eyes I got with it looked smaller than my unoa's default gastric 12mm eyes. So I was pretty confused with the sizing ^^;;

 

Reintroducing Josephine Pember my Soda Ent





The resin was to thick for me to attach and glue magnets from the inside of the Upper Back Torso. They just wouldnt hold the wings in place.
So I finally got the nerve to drill the Shoulder Blades and inset the Magnets.
I can now attach the ent wings to the back.
The antlers are just attached using magnets underneath the wig

Name History:
I wanted to keep with the Soda theme so i decided to do a combo. Named after Joseph Priestly, the first person To add carbon dioxide to water; and John Pemberton the founder of my favorite soft drink, Coca-Cola.

 

Ahh, I wasn't sure about the Kiel; her eyes certainly look much smaller than any of the other girls, so it could be an entirely different ballgame with that head.

 

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but has anyone else seen that these cutie-pies are being sold again starting tomorrow? I missed one the first time around and will definitely be buying one this time.

Good to know
Now to hope that they are selling the antler parts separately (or it's going to be off to find somebody who doesn't want theirs).

My poor girl is still packed up from my recent move. Won't be unpacking them until I have the place organized.

 

I hadn't seen that before, but that is rather exciting news!

 

Augh! Another chance to get Honey?! But I don't think I can swing a full doll right now... ;^; I really wish they'd go back to selling just heads separately. </3

 

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA? They're back?! OMG, I already have a whole bunch of ents... but... more ents! MORE! Going to have to see about getting a Cutie this time around, already have two sodas and a pumpkin.

 

Wow, that was fast. My new ent is already in the US and through customs. Hope I get her today but tomorrow is more likely.

 

That was quick Deadlegato. I've got a cutie Ent on layaway so I've got another 2 months to wait at least.

Rage quit elsii? Surely not? Must be a shit of a job.
