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.

Luts Model Delf 45cm (MDF) mature mini discussion part 2

Jul 29, 2018

    1. Hiya! Does anyone have a Withdoll JWD (new version) girl body and a Luts Model girl body (new version)? I'm wondering how they compare size wise. Are they very close in size or very dissimilar? :sweat
       
    2. I do have JWD girl new version, but my girl mdf is the old body type.
       
    3. My boy arrived yesterday! His wig doesn't fit, his pants are too tight and I forgot to buy him eyes! :XD::XD::doh:doh:doh He's temporarily wearing a wig I bought for my tiny that looks terrible on him (a blond wig with his dark eyebrows, it looks like a bad dye job), but at least it fits on his little pea head.

    4. @Epicari - I also have the new JWD girl body and an old version Model Delf girl body, like @marxwyn does.

      @Featherfire - Congrats on your boy's arrival, event if his look hasn't come together yet. (Don't worry, it will.) Which MDF did you get?
       
    5. @vermont chick Diez! I bought some eyes yesterday, still hunting for hair and better clothes. It's even harder right now because I'd really prefer to buy within the US so I don't have to wait a million years.
       
    6. Awesome, thank you. How do they compare size wise?
       
    7. @Epicari - Overall, old Luts MDF is taller (43cm vs 41.85), with bigger bust (19.3cm vs 17.85cm for C size), larger waist (13.5 cm vs 12.5cm) and wider hips (20.8cm vs 18.5 cm) than JWD new version. We're talking centimeters here, so differences aren't really huge. It will make a difference in how some clothing fits, but they don't look that different side-by-side unless one has flat feet and the other has heels, or if one girl has a larger or smaller bust where ordering gives you a choice. Their feet are very close in length and width; where they differ is in the arch of the heeled foot. MDF wear much higher heels.

      FYI, I didn't measure my two dolls. I keep a chart of measurements. When I buy a doll I copy her measurements to my chart so I always have the information handy.

      @Featherfire - It's very tempting to buy only from US sources right now because of how the Covid-19 quarantine is affecting international shipments. Packages seem to be piling up at ports of entry. Unfortunately, everything I have on order right now is coming from overseas. I haven't received anything in ages.
       
    8. Does anyone have a male body in whiteskin blushed? I'm curious how blushing looks, i've never had a whiteskin body before but I'm looking at getting a white skin Kale.
       
    9. @TheKidAbroad I don't have a blushed WS but I do have one. It is DEFINITELY not paper white if that is what you're looking for.
       
    10. Actually I was more AFRAID it was paper white so that's great to hear :sweat
       
    11. @TheKidAbroad I'm in the process of moving but when I can unpack my dolls I'll get the pics for you.
       
    12. Awesome, thanks for the info! It's good to know they're so close in body shape so hopefully that'll work out for my plans :XD:
       
    13. Hi~ I've really been planning on getting the MDF slim body & a head from little Monica little line. I have seen a reference and it does work.. but my one worry is that I can't find any good clothes that I could buy for the body except from the small range of clothes on the luts website...mainly looking for tops ( especially school uniform stuff - can buy each thing separately) if anyone knows any good shops/ places I could get clothes for the MDF body?
       
    14. Loose fitting MSD clothing normally fits. Also look at the brands listed on the cloths on Luts and you can check that companies taobao for more variation of the same cloths. For example a pair of shorts marked to fit MDF Girls is only offered in Pink and Blue on Luts website, but in 9 colors on the seamstress's taobao page.

    15. Oh thank you so much!:XD:
       
    16. Hello! I recently put in an order for Bliss, with the second faceup option-- the character I will be shelling is one of my OCs, a girl named Columbine. I'm wondering if Bliss' body will fit OK in girls' doll clothes, since it's technically a 'male' body type (I ordered the slender body option). Does anyone have any experience or advice with this? I'm hoping that there isn't a huge difference size-wise and that she will be able to fit things like dresses and sweaters and skirts just fine, as she wears mori-girl style clothes.

    17. @angelangel - My advice is I would suggest you compare the measurements of the slender body to whatever bjd is used as the model to size the clothes you want to buy. The slender body is on the larger end of the measurement ranges for standard msd boys. If the clothes you are looking at are sized specifically to girl msds there is a chance they might not fit properly as they are usually overall smaller in size.

    18. Thanks so much for the informative answer!!! This is a great idea, comparing the measurements to the specific model doll in clothes listings isn't something I had thought of-- I'll be sure to make notes of all her measurements so that I can be certain when I order clothes for her. She likes fairly loose-fitting clothes anyway, so hopefully that will make things a bit easier.

      Do you think 1/3 size items like sweaters/cardigans would work as 'oversized,' or would they just be waaay too big? I want her to look cozy and comfortable, but I don't want her to be, like, swimming in it...
       
    19. @angelangel - I mainly collect msds so I couldn't help too much there, but comparing measurements should still help in general. Keep in mind proportions if you try that route. Even an sd girl only 50cm tall (only 5cm~ taller than mdf) could have arm, leg, and torso lengths that could make certain clothes designed for her look odd on a shorter doll even if it technically "fits". Also just an idea, I would suggest getting a measuring tape could help visualise "swimming" issues if you can't guess it in your head. For example, website says mdf slender waist is 14.6cm and say you see a skirt fitted to doll with 16cm waist. You could put the measuring tape around your doll waist sized to 16cm and you could tell whether you think the gap is too much for the fit you want or not. But generally because sds are taller than msds, things like sleeves and pant legs being too long is a common issue.

    20. @xyuemoto Thank you so much again for the detailed response! I have a measuring tape already so I'll be sure to use it to help me visualize things, that's a great idea. I know how to sew a little bit, too, so I bet I could tailor things if they just need a tuck at the waist or something. She probably won't be wearing pants much, but the sleeve length thing is definitely something I'll keep in mind! :D
