Resinsoul and Bobobie Mini Discussion Thread - Part 33

Your Ju is so cute! I love how you customised her. I have one too. She's my little dragon girl and I love her. Don't play with her much, but she has her place on my doll shelf.

 

Oh she's so cute! I love how the deep pinks in the faceup complement her blue resin!

 

There seems to be new dolls on resinsoul's site, and one may be a 1/4 girl going by vibe, but there's no name for her and no price...
Maybe they published without meaning to?

Anyway she seems cute, with little vampire teeth, animal ears, and a tail

Edit: they corrected it just after I posted this so I must just have visited at the wrong time she's called Yousu and she is in fact 1/4

 

She has fangs!
She reminds me of Twilight, which is cool.
She's listed under their 42cm dolls which is curious. I wonder what body she's using then.

Also for some reason 3 sd Andrews lol.
What the heck?

I do wish they'd give us some new msd boys. I really want a new boy body.

 

Same, I'd really love a new msd body for boys!
I mean, technically they did one for the wukong doll I think? But that's a very tall msd at 48cm, and I'd love to have a smaller one to upgrade one of my dolls...

 

The new girl is pretty and she's almost exactly what I've been thinking about lately. I've been window shopping for either a 1/4 or 1/6 vampire.

EDIT:
I emailed them asking for a blank photo of the head and asked about the body. They said Yousu and Qingqiu have the same body. I'll have to wait a week for a blank photo of Yousu's head.

 

I'm looking forward to being able to discuss the new 42cm body when I get Qingqiu; very curious as to how the thigh mobility joint affects the overall standing right out of the box. I'm not finding Yousu as pretty, but I think part of that may be the faceup they went with. If nothing else, it's nice to have an face with fangs already on it as an option for people; no limited doll or additional sculpting fees issues.

 

My new Wukong/Ming/Sui/Dog custom arrived today! Add "Dawn" to the mix, I guess, but only temporarily. I got this body for a Dream Valley Order head, but because that head was secondhand, I'm waiting to run it by the mods before posting, even though it has a COA and all that's a total 1:1 match for my firsthand Dream Valley fellas. I might be 99.9% certain but I'm taking no chances

So...Dawn head it is! For the moment. I need a new s-hook anyway, because the Resinsoul default one is way too wide for the Dream Valley head.

His thighs aren't a different color from the rest of the body, it's just a weird lighting thing. But anyway... I'm thrilled with the result. He actually stands very well on those paws, though only if the leggies are straight out. All the pieces went together even better than I imagined. Resinsoul saving the day once again!

 

Those paws look so good! I definitely think my next custom order from them will include some big paws. I just love Resinsoul’s digitigrade legs so much.

 

Welcome to the paws club! I'm so glad to see other people are getting the digi legs they've wanted. I don't know why pawed digi legs are like hens' teeth, but bless Resinsoul for giving us all a solution.

 

those paws look excellent! I've always found though that while I love the Ming legs, they never want to actually KEEP their pose so getting them to stay digigrade is really awkward. Does anyone have a solution to that?

 

Thank you! Definitely recommend the paws, they're super cute. It's funny, I didn't like the look of them nearly so much on what I assume was the original model (the tiny dog dolls), but they translated super well to the 1/4 scale. I'm hoping all these paw orders might inspire Resinsoul to officially make this a "thing"... especially since they just put out that fox girl! It would have been perfect for her to come with a canid leg option.

All thanks to you! Or so I think. I believe it was your post with the doll that had the Ming/Yao legs and the paws. If I hadn't seen that, I wouldn't have even thought to ask Resinsoul about it, because I wouldn't have envisioned those parts working together that well.

Resinsoul has truly become my hero thanks to stuff like this. Floating head in a particular/uncommon color, that needs a likewise oddly-specific body? Resinsoul to the rescue!

Now I just need them to make a modular snake/noodle dragon/merfolk sort of situation... if I keep saying it, maybe I can manifest it. I hinted towards such a thing in one of my emails with them, so who knows? It's the Year of the Snake, now's a great time to do it!

I've been pondering that myself, but I can't think of anything that would actually keep the legs in position. Or rather, I'm finding it's the upper body that really doesn't want to cooperate. If I have the legs posed similarly to how they are in my picture, the whole upper body slumps in an unhelpful direction. I'm thinking it would need to be engineered from the ground up to have the legs and upper body strung separately, like some of the switchable parts from companies like Dream Valley. That, and a bunch of sueding and wiring would probably help.

 

In case anybody was hoping the full body pic of Qingqui just had the bits edited out...nope, I can confirm that her default is an angel body.

Guessing this all ties in to the censoring that's been discussed in other threads. Not sure if that means that they can still add nipples/genitalia on special request if you really want them, or if all their molds are going to be updated (especially since from what I understand, resin molds are only good for a relatively small number of casts.)

Overall, though, I'm really pleased with her. Her faceup came out really pretty, she poses well (though I have to restring her, because knot in head), and the new beast parts are fun.

 

Oh she’s pretty! How does the tail pose? Is it heavy?

 

Congrats on your new lovely girl, she looks so pretty! I actually like the lack of nipples, looks better when they wear more tighter clothes.

This makes me want to get Yousu even more. >_<

 

She's cute, and arrived fast!! Or maybe I'm misremembering when they released her xD I personally don't mind the angel body detail if that's the route they're going to go, but I know some people like more detailed sculpts too.

 

I actually kinda prefer the angel bodies because I find resin nipples really annoying in clothes (they always look cold lol) and the way they just kinda.. scratch between the legs on always makes me cringe. I dunno, it just... I don't like, I have a visceral reaction to the graze they give them. Maybe it's my whole down their damage trauma lol.

I like the hip shape.


I'd also love to see more detail of her tail.

Congrats on your new girl! I look forward to seeing her styled!

Oh btw, I asked them about a blank sculpt image for Yousu and they've added one to the page now.

 

Tail poses very nicely, obviously not as much as a fabric tail would, but I'm happy with it, its ability to hold a pose, and how firmly it clamps on there. It's a huge step up from the solid resin tails of the dragons and I'm hoping this results in Resinsoul offering new flexy tails for them as well.

And yes, I'm thinking that the angel body chest is going to be nicer for clothing. No just...jutting out there.

I've now got the unboxing video made and uploaded to Youtube, for anybody who wants to see stuff like her tail posing in action. (I'm looking forward to blushing that thing.)

 

So excited about rs's new releases!!! I like yousu's serious expression a lot. I would love to see people's opinions/reviews of any kind on the new qingqiu/yousu body as well as the rainbow body. They both look really nice aesthetically! How are the double joints? and do the wrists/ankle hold any positions well?

 

Your unboxing video was fantastic! Thanks so much for sharing! What a solid stander too. The wrist joints look very promising! Is she going to be your vtuber avatar in the video perchance?

I'm not usually hunting for specialized colors or anything, but these 2 new bodies have really caught my attention... got me thinking all kinds of ambitious things haha
