MYou 45cm - part II

It's lovely when your dolls make their own decisions isn't it? My Delia was supposed to be blonde but when I tried a dark wig on her for fun and she claimed it as hers instead and absolutely refuses to wear the blond one anymore

 

I've found Minifee clothes to be 50/50; all of my stretch pants and skirts fit Lingwei pretty well, all considering. I'm working on making some shoes that fit her, and if I get a working pattern, I'll post it.

Not that I need another doll till the two I'm working on are done, buuuuttt.....I'm playing around with ordering Teresa. I'm just debating tan or coffee. I have a Gina in coffee; does anyone have both tones that they could post a comparison? I know they have the company comparison pictures, but I feel like customer pictures give a more accurate impresson.

 

Soooo, I ordered a myou girl, type 2 body new ver with a small bust. Myou sent a large bust. She struggles to fit her curves into my JID girl clothing. I'm now on a hunt to find clothing that I can buy 'off the rack' that'll fit this lil lady.
That being said, I'll be reading through this thread and it's previous. But if anyone wants pictures of Dietrich in coffee skin, mine arrived!

 

I do, actually. Dietrich in coffee skin is on my wishlist.
Myou Doll big bust is no joke, I just decided to embrace it with my Zuzana. She gets outfit emphasizing it

 

I'll grab you some pictures then
Anything in particular you want to see?

 

Not the one who asked but I'd love to see her face-up and how it looks like on the darker skintone. The super pale Dietrich looks beautiful in the promo pictures so I'm curious how she looks like when not-so-deadly-pale I bet gorgeous since the coffee tone is lovely but I want to see if she gives less vampire vibes like that.

 

@Hellsing365 What digi said, and maybe also one or two different wigs, if possible. I kinda need to be able to picture her with my current crew before I seriously consider getting her.

 

First quick photoshoot!
her head is rather tiny. She does fit my JID girls custom made wigs but the 7/8's from the store slide right off. She also came with a gift wig and it's just..no. Coffee skin with basically coffee toned hair just showed the green under tones in her wig. @EagleVision1999, if you have any colors you want to see let me know. I make wigs, so have a literal ton of colors and styles that I can at least photograph next to her, if not on her.

Straight out of the box she can hardly stand. her arms pose great but she needs sueded. the neck S hook is TIGHT so I don't think tighter strings is the answer, perhaps thicker ones. The faceup has a... glitter explosion? Under her right eye (you may see it in photos) it almost looks like a unicorn tear LOL. Also appears the gloss went above her lip a little. Myou didn't customize the faceup at all (I asked for solid darker red lips) as a note.

Be kind to her wig, it was my first time doing lace parts/fronts and it shows. bahaha.Lighting conditions aren't great (smoke + clouds = weird combo).

Thank you I'm not so sure about colors, I am more worried about style. I would like to see her in a wig with bangs. Also, which size eyes do you use?

I agree with your opinions about the ver. 2 new body. It looks pretty and the range of montion is good but it does need sueding. That body also doesn't sit that well. I very much prefer the ver. 1 body when it comes to posing.

 

She's wearing the eyes she came with in the pics, so 14mm. I might try her in a smaller/custom sized 14 instead of the 14/7 I think those are. I think 12 might be a bit too small...She's got HIGH domes in her right now and they actually fit into the socket really well.

I have some wigs with bangs! I'll try and get you pics tonight or tomorrow.

ETA pictures! Smaller 6/7 is good IMO. 7 is perfect.

She's TOTALLY staying in this wig, LOL. Handmade on a KDF head I believe (so 17.5cm instead of her 18cm) fits perfect, stays on perfect. This is on the large end of 6/7 and the closest to 7 without being a 7/8 that I have.

Mohair wig for a 16cm headed doll (technically 6 in size I think). does NOT fit.

This was my JID wig, 18cm doll head (and what Myou claims this head is) and a proper 7/8 size but on the smaller side. It's loose.. and a lot of hair so it's heavy and doesn't sit right.

Following two were bought for a 18.5cm head (same size as my mnf shiwoo, and angel studio msd). They fit pretty well. They do slide around and are easy to knock out of style if she fell or had a gust of wind, but they're lighter so sit better

My conclusion is try and aim for a size 7 wig. 6/7's can be too small, and 7/8's can be rather large. If you have to pick, 7/8's would probably be the way I lean with a rubber band or sticky tack to aid in keeping the wig in place.

 

I posted a full photoshoot of her;

@Hellsing365 Wow, this is great! Thank you for posting such detailed information! Your Dietrich is lovely, that grey wig does look lovely on her.

 

Myou is teasing in their announcement that they'll release new doll this month Am I the only one wishing for a boy? Nothing wrong with girls though, I have Delia(x2) and Zuzana and love 'em, I'm just hoping for something little bit different I guess.

(Or I'd be just as excited if they added new 1/6sp sized dolls too, I've really grown to love Alan and Rod so I wouldn't mind more options in the size either )

 

@Hellsing365 I actually came here to see if there were any Dietrich photos and I hit the jackpot, she’s beautiful. You wouldn’t happen to have a Resinsoul in light/dark tan, would you? I wanted to see how it compared to Myou’s coffee.

 

There is definitively a difference between the two shades, though it's not a super bad one depending on your level of tolerance for these things.
Left is resinsoul light tan from september 21, right is myou coffee may 22


Resinsoul light tan is a little darker, and a little less warm than myou's coffee, although it is less visible in photo than irl

 

Thank you! I'm in love with her more than I thought I'd be.
I don't have a resinsoul light/dark tan. But her coffee skin is VERY light. From a distance enxt to newer dolls she's just a more rich 'normal skin' color. Essentially she's more like a Caucasian has a healthy tan color. It's weird to say but there's a lot more 'green' under tones in her brown that subdue the hue. Unlike the 'orange' under tones that typical 'ns' dolls have. If that makes sense...
I do restringing so if I ever get a client who sends me a brown doll I'll try and photograph them together

 

@Hellsing365 thanks, I appreciate the offer!

@Tagath thank you for the comparison pic!!

I just recently stumbled upon Myou’s new body II and so now I’m trying to find a head. I really like Teresa, Dietrich, and Daisy, though I also feel like they have a more youthful look than I generally prefer, so I’m exploring other options.

Edit: Does anyone know if Alice’s Collection does resin comparison pictures? I found a head from another company that they distribute for that could work perfectly if the resin is close enough.

Edit2: I’ve decided on Teresa, I love her company face-up, and I think if I get the large bust and dress her for a young adult age she won’t look so young. I’ve also found two more dolls from other companies that would be good companions for her and also they’ll be a witch coven together. Wasn’t the plan before, but it is now!

 

Well, here's a picture of my my Macarena. I think when I get Dietrich I will get her on the ver. 3 body, just so I have one of each

I'm super bad with doll plans, Macarena is one of like two dolls whose look turned out exactly as envisioned .

 

She is so lovely @EagleVision1999 - I havn't seen any owner pics of Macarena yet without the full set look, so it's nice to see a different take on her.

 

Oh yes, it’s wonderful to see a different take on Macarena! She’s lovely. I still haven’t been able to take mine out of her fullset yet. She’s just so gorgeous in it, it’s difficult to even think of changing her…especially with the holidays coming up so soon. Perhaps afterwards…
