MYou tinies discussion - Part 2

I have a ton of these. Atelier Momoni pitusa dolls have the same size feet at the Myou girls and the real little shoes do fit, however, you do have to cut the backs and warm them up so they are more pliable to get them off and on. Here is a picture of my girls wearing a few different pairs (pics under the spoiler)

I just bought a Bettina from Junky Spot. I've been wanting a mature tginy for awhile and the sale going on Was just the right enticement, a present to myself.

 

I have two of Myou's mature tinies- both boys- and the shoes could probably be forced on if warmed up to be pliable and a strip cut out of the back. They'd be very hard to remove, though. I thought the same thing and tried it on my Alan, but I was too scared to force them on. I change his clothes way too often to put shoes on him that would be difficult to remove.

 

They are definitely hard to get off if you don't warm them up. I usually just wrap my hand around them and kind of squeeze around and they come off ok at that point. I cut the backs on all mine and even a hairdryer if all else fails works like a charm. I was worried when I used the hightops but even those I had no issue getting off of them.

 

Ok, I've been eyeing Gina for, like, a year, and I just saw a Bettina with an awesome faceup and I'm now torn. (I would totally do Vieruodis, but my BJD control policy has a strict rule about fantasy dolls.) I think I want to take the plung since Alice's Collections has the 15% off right now...could I see some pictures of your pretty mature tinies?

 

Here's another picture of my girl (still stuck between two names)... her hair is a mess as usual lol

 

I love her colors! She's lovely

 

I received my Bettina yesterday and opened her today. I love her tiny features, she poses great and is lovely. She came with pale lavender/pink eyes, not my favorite, but ordered other eyes for her, fingers crossed that I will like them/fit. I have 2 Monique wigs size 4-5 and both a tad big. One style was too juvenile, the other wasn't too bad with blonde curls, so I took a dart in the back and it will do for now. I ordered 2 other wigs to try out, one smaller thinking I could always slash. I will eventually make a hard cap wig as I think that will suit her best. I always go for long hair styles but maybe short would be better and not overwhelm her tiny body.
She fit in some of my 12 inch fashion doll clothes I had made for an off topic dolls that I have. She has a pair of Ken loafers currently. She is pretty rag tag, but will remedy that after the holidays. I wasted a whole day of work now fiddling around with her, so she is now on a shelf.

 

Hi there!

I have a question regarding the 1/8 bodies: do their elbow and knee joints really work as double-jointed? Can they bend their arms and legs more than 90 degrees?

Thanks!

 

@Cap'n

Thanks!

 

Thanks for pointing out the wig size; I've been hunting for a good one, and wasn't sure what size I should look for.

 

Howdy! I'm seriously considering buying one of these (probably Bettina). I just wanted to put in a plug for Parabox wigs. Insanely exact measurements (3.5 cm, 4 cm, 4.5 cm, 5 cm, etc.), and DHL shipping, so they arrive fast (at least to the US). Plus, the wigs are a combo of nylon and elastic, so they're a good, snug fit.

 

I received my MyouDoll TangTang as a full set, and of course the appropriately-sized wig came along with her as a result. However, it doesn't seem to stay on no matter how hard I try. I'm assuming I'll need a wig cap if my next attempts don't work, but it stands out to me that neither my IBG/B&G Loretta Boy nor my Luts Gretel needed wig caps to keep their hair on. Do MyouDolls' sculpts differ in this regard?

 

I just ordered my Gina in coffee from New Clover-Singing, and I am so excited!! I've already named her Marmalade, and started ordering her clothes. I'm planning on making her an orange wig, though I'm not sure how it will work with the coffee tone.

 

Yay Kateryu! She sounds lovely.
I just ordered Vieruodis from Junky spot and I literally can't wait! I've already started her dollhouse/diorama

 

Ooo, please post pictures!! Do you have an actual dollhouse for her?

 

Yes, I actually acquired an old kidkraft wooden dollhouse a few months ago. Its for barbie sized dolls. I painted over the pink furniture covered walls and the roof to make it more neutral/realistic. I haven't taken any pictures yet but I might start a project journal or something when I do
