Rainman Discussion

I agree, that's why I paid for it, LOL. @susana789 , I ordered blank heads too, and they arrived in a month, so very fast too

 

Oh, glad I found this thread! I've been eyeing Su since the first preorder and I finally snagged one during this last order period! I got the OE version in light tan and I am SO EXCITED! I swear I refreshed his website every hour of every day since mid-September when he said he'd be opening a new preorder period.

My question now is, what size eyes does Su take? I'm planning to shell my pretty dragon boy with the head and I need to know what size eyes to get!

I have Kira and Tsunaina heads and for both 10 mm eyes with small irisis (5mm). Kira is OK with 10 mm and maybe she could wear smaller. For Su I tried 12 mm but for me smaller (10 mm) are better, but maybe some 12mm with small irisis and special shape can do the desired effect. My are SOULinAboxDOLLS (Etsy). Recently I buy Eyeco 10mm and they fit fine for Kira.

 

@HeyJude , congratulations!!!

 

Thank you! I have some spare 12mm small iris from that same artist so maybe I'll just use those until I know for sure!

Thank you! I'm so excited because I adore unusual realistic sculpts and Su is perfect for one of my very dear OCs - win-win!

 

My Supia body is stuck outside customs (due to holiday) and I'm still waiting on my dark Blina head for over 3 months

 

So, my Supiadoll ballerina body arrived and I put my Anna head on it and took a quick picture. It's supposed to be for my incoming Dark Blina head, but the resin match isn't great- and I won't be able to adjust Blina's Faceup. But I can adjust Anna's so it might stay on this body. We'll see

 

She looks good in the picture. Is the match further off in actuality?

 

It's weirdly not noticable because I gave her such pink cheeks, which is counterintuitive, I know! The back of her head is indeed more pinkish. I have no idea what my dark Blina will look like on this body, but if it doesn't work out, I'd be happy with Anna on this body



I could then redo the Faceup and get the resin to match better

Hummm, this one may have to be my Stevie Nicks inspired doll, the one I got before turns out not to look like Stevie at all, but Anna unexpectedly gives off the right vibe

WOW, Anna looks from promo pictures is far far away from this. For me her message to all around was "I am little bit worried about all around me" constantly crying girl. But with this face up she should transform into 70th boho-chick really well, if this is path for her as Stevie Nicks.

As for pinkish color. Yes, my Kira has it too. Color match for her DollShe body was really difficult. But after I redone her face-up few times, pinkish is less visible.

 

Thank you @susana789 . The Faceup option wasn't really for me. When I saw the blank face, I realized that she didn't need to look so sad at all. Actually, I think she could be expressing all kinds of things, being incredulous , listening intently, giving a speech, conversing, studying, a million looks, just need a bit of context and it should work!

Here's "Angel", my modded Su. I love him to bits Krowbar modded him for me and did a fantastic job. You can klick the picture to enlarge it to see the detail of the face better.

He is based on my idol JayR Tinaco. JayR on Instagram: “Feelin’ the love everyone! Thank you! Keep watching and spreading the word on #AnotherLife - let’s get a season 2!! ⭐️” He's had the nosebridge moded a bit. He's modded to be anatomically male. The doll were ordered with the small chest and modded to a male chest. And then he had male parts added in the lower area. I went with a modding job since I felt it would be easier to have the doll modded rather than going on a long search for a male hybrid body that fit the head and have the right color to match the Rainman tan.

I never saw the doll before it went to krowbar as it were sent to him directly after the order. But creating a character before seeing a doll irl isn't always easy, which I did So when I got Angel home, after I had him for a while he had a shift in character. I realized that Angel is a genderless being, a shapeshifter who can shift into the shape of other human like species. Angel may be this genderless being but he lives among humans on earth and identifies as male. Sometimes he's just his genderless self and sometimes he shifts into the form of a human male.

So I will later send back the lower part of the body to krowbar alongside with some other heads that needs a faceup, to have it modded genderless. We both agreed on that considering the dolls body shape it would look best genderless. I can't say for sure when but I'm hoping to send the body part back for the modding around February some time.

 

Such a cute face

Yes it's a modded Rainman body by krowbar. And the way the breasts is sculpted on the Rainman body it's not an easy task to mod it to look male. I posted some pictures above of the mod job. It have this genderless kind of look, neither quite female or male I guess. But I love the kind of non-human look it gives.

Thanks

Thanks for pics, really great job. Love him. How is body posing?

 

Thanks It poses really well I think. Got no complaints.

 

My July.

 

Such a beauty, this look really suits her. Which body you use for her?
