Resinsoul and Bobobie Mini Discussion Thread - Part 33

She's here!



I ordered her in exactly the same resin as on the website, and I don't regret it.

The wig is temporary. I had another one, but it hid her amazing ears. I think her permanent wig will probably be short. Probably similar but better fitting.

The face-up artist put a lot of love into the blushing. Lovely detail on her hands and feet, and the ears are amazing.

 

Wow she looks amazing!

 

That dual-toned resin is SO COOL. Congratulations!

 

Anyone else noticed a sudden slowdown in responses from Resinsoul? I sent an inquiry on Monday and haven't heard back yet. Given I'm used to a 24 hour response, this is pretty unusual. Wondering if they have a sudden order backup or something.

 

Perhaps their translator is ill or on vacation.

 

The tree behind my complex has lots of crannies perfect to set dolls in. I'm going to take so many pictures! Here's my Yao, Kiri.

@Fairy Milliner Ohhhhh my word she's so beautiful. Congratulations!

Did you hear back from them? I want to ask them about a body, but I'm still waffling on if I want to reach out directly or go through DDE, which i know takes longer, but has the slight chance of maybe not having the tarriff issue by the time it's ready, and being able to change my address more easily if i need to :/

 

I did hear back after I sent a follow up a week later; it looks like the e-mail somehow got eaten. My guess is that the photos I'd attached for reference caused an issue. I just placed an order myself after a lot of waffling and fussing; hoping that in the two months or so they normally take, the tariffs will be adjusted to a more reasonable level.

 

Ah good to know, thanks!

 

I have received one order from China and did not have any tariffs assed.

 

I've been looking for Resinsoul dolls for my girlfriends doll project. The last time I've really done research on them was almost ten years ago and I just wanted to say how happy I am to see them look even better than they were before! My girlfriend is mostly interested in the tiny dolls but to me especially the new Resinsoul 1/4 sculpts look so good! I have loved seeing everyones owner pics and love the creativity that Resinsoul owners have. Ty for sharing your dolls!

 

Looking for a wig for Ming and wondering what size would fit best? His head size is listed as 18.5 so I wasn't sure if a 7/8 would be too small. I usually buy Leekeworld wigs if that matters.

 

@CosmicSaturday 7/8 generally works fine for Ming. His head does measure 18.5 cm or about 7 1/4 inches, so that checks out.
I will say, though, that his ears can get in the way if a wig is made with a very deep wig cap.

Leeke wigs are hit and miss quality wise and I believe they sell wigs from several different makers, so it's difficult to say anything definite unless you are able to find someone who owns the exact wig you are looking at. But over all, most 7/8 should fit.

 

My Mings are both wearing 7/8 Leekeworld wigs. Those particular wigs have zero issues from his ears. I don't have any accessible pics ATM, or I'd post pics.

 

I took my Wu out for pictures! My little ghost:

I love how the visible stringing through the translucent resin almost looks like a skeleton!

 

Oh man, seeing all the cool fantasy dolls/colors Resinsoul is doing really makes me wish I was more into their face sculpt style. I love seeing other people's dolls from them, though-- the transparent resin seems really, really awesome and I love the creativity in styling.

I am curious, how easy is it to find patterns for the 1/4 boy body that came with Tang and I think a version of one of the dragons? I have a hybrid on that body and it seems to be on the taller end of "slim minis". I'm looking around for like long trenchcoats in particular but honestly I need practice sewing for them in general. The coat is for a cosplay, and I could try to modify another size pattern, but I'm very new at this so if anyone has recs feel free to throw them my way.

I am a bit confused about where hybrid stuff should be posted, the head is DollZone so most of the time pics of the full doll will be in that thread, but when discussing clothing I could pop in here, assuming that's okay. I really like the body sculpting wise, I would love to see more dolls who use it, surprisingly enough it doesn't seem super common even in spaces dedicated to Bobobie/Resinsoul dolls. Is it a matter of it being an odd size, or just people's interest? Or do I have bad luck and just keep missing it?

Either way, I'm happy to see more pics of it in general. And, honestly, more of people's custom orders, or fantasy dolls... Resinsoul as a company has so much potential and I'm surprised they are still able to work quick and not get flooded with orders, since my doll's body literally took about a month and that's amazing.

 

Have you tried looking on the more "fashion doll" side of 1/4th scale? Like Raccoon Doll's style or Iple's FID line. Luts briefly had a line like that, and my Sui is in one of their outfits. It's a little loose, but you'll definitely get the correct length and proportions more then in the Minifee-style side.

If you check out Antique Lilac, she sews a lot for that size and may have a pattern available you can use as a base?

 

As far as I know, hybrids are welcome in all the related discussion threads. So you can post it both here and in the DollZone thread if you like. Depending on the context it may be a good idea to mention that it's a hybrid when posting pictures, just to avoid confusion, but other than that it's all good.

 

Was just on their site and saw they posted a new MSD girl, Qingqiu! I think she's supposed to be a fox girl, that jointed tail looks awesome!
