Resinsoul and Bobobie Mini Discussion Thread - Part 33

Oh she's really pretty! Thank you for posting the unboxing video!

TBH I don't really mind the angel body--as others have noted, sometimes clothing fits/drapes better. I kinda wish I'd asked Resinsoul to sand the "details" on my doll's chest (I got her with the Rong torso) to at least smooth them out a bit; for the most part, it's not an issue, but I do have one stretchy/snug top for my doll and they're really, uh, obvious when she's wearing it. I'd do it myself but I know that resin dust can be pretty toxic, and I'm worried it would damage the sealant used on the blushing I got on her collarbones, if the sealant covers her whole chest.

 

Yes, she's very solid, which makes me wince at the thought of having to unstring her, but it has to be done. Why Resinsoul does the knots in the head instead of the chest will forever be a mystery. She's not going to be my vtuber avatar, though I can definitely see the comparison. Here she is with some of the wefts for the wig I'm making her:

the tail looks really nice actually, solid but with just enough movement..
I can see paws and a tail in my future lol.

I need to get bodies for some floating heads so i'm pondering RS for not only their price point but the improved engineering on their recent bodies and their colour matching services realy do make them stand out from the other low price bjds who often only offer like 2 colour choices.

I have a soom grey head I need colour matched. I understand their newer "light grey" is faaar too light so i'm going to have to write them an email and ask them if they can emulate their old light grey/match soom. Though I was also pondering if I might just avoid potential colour mismatch entirely by going with intentional mixing. Someone posted a half transparent doll which I thought was a pretty elegant solution to a hybrid colour matching issue. But I need to have a think about what I want the final doll to look like.

I also need to figure out who I want to give paws and a tail to lol.
my Rong was always supposed to have a tail, I just never got around to making her one but the fluffy tail isn't exactly what I had in mind. but i'm hoping they do some more tails and fantasy parts like that soon enough.

Funny thing is, while I really like the new rs bodies, i'm not as keen on their new art direction for the heads. I can't quite pinpoint what it is, they're a little narrower and longer I think. I dunno. But maybe that's a good thing because I have far too many heads here in need of bodies so getting that sorted without temptation for whole new doll heads is probably helpful. hahaha.

 

I know that RS offers almost every color match under the sun, but I was wondering if anyone can direct me to any unbroken resin matching photos/threads/posts of their default offered normal resin? I'm looking specifically for matches close to Soom or Luts Normal.

 

He's here!



The custom purple color is GORGEOUS! And the mega-tail (a combination of two tails) poses wonderfully! I will sing Resinsoul's praises forever.

 

omg the mega tail! Did you request two tails or for them to just lengthen it? It's so good!
Loving those bird feet too, are those Pixiu's feet scaled up?

What a cool looking doll

 

Yep, I requested a black tail and a white tail, then unstrung the both of them, and then strung the pieces together into an extra long tail.

And yep yep, these are Pi/Pixiu's feet! I'd ordered scaled-up 1/4 size Pi feet before to go with my Rainbow earlier this year, and these bird feet are even bigger than those to suit the wider foot joint of the digitigrade legs.

Love that Resinsoul is able to grant us such customized options~ Big fan of the Angel body too, it works well for my slinky guy.

 

That's incredible looking and one of the best examples of how crazy Resinsoul can get. Is the head a Resinsoul customization, another company, or did you do some sculpted add-ons?

Everyone's beautiful hybrids are further convincing me that I need to make a 'just buy a Resinsoul' page with a guide to custom ordering and a gallery of what they can pull off.

 

The head’s a different company. I tried to dye it a matching purple color, but it didn’t turn out right. I’ll make it work though lol.

Honestly, I’d love to see a gallery of all the customizations Resinsoul has done!

 

That looks awesome!

 

He's spectacular! Resinsoul is truly the GOAT Love how the tail turned out— I already thought it would look cool, but the final result looks even better than how I imagined it.

Those were the Ming legs, right? They look so good with the Pi feet! I would never guess these were from two different models if I didn't already know

 

Yup, Ming legs!

Here's something interesting that I noticed. His rescaled Pi feet are the same size as the rescaled Pi feet that I previously ordered for my Rainbow, but Resinsoul thickened the entire sculpt to better fit the larger Ming foot joints. I really appreciate that they did that~ It looks really nice!



I think those peanut thigh joints really help with the wonky-standing Ming legs, too. With those big feet and some sueding and wiring, he's got some sturdy birdy feet.

 

Could any of you lovely people who have those peanut thigh joints perhaps tell me what the circumference of the hip side of the peanut is?

I'm getting a doll who has single jointed hips and I am hoping that if Resinsoul hip peanut size works, then I can just ask them nicely to sell me some hip peanuts, some thighs and some knee joints and hopefully I can do a weird leg hybrid.

 

I am now regretting that it didn't occur to me to ask if they could add thigh joints to the body i ordered in April >< I'm going to need to find a good way to suede and probably wire the ming legs for it because they sure don't want to stand well as is!

 

Those new bird feet almost look like a whole new sculpt! I want them!

 

Sorry for the possibly weird question, but is there anyone who has the 1/4 male jointed hands and could maybe share a picture of them with a ruler for scale? I would also appreciate any tips for ordering things in non-standard colors from Resinsoul.

For an explanation - I want to get a pair of jointed hands in black resin for one of my dolls. The wrist measurements for his body is about the same as for the Resinsoul ones; however, as he's a larger, more mature 1/4 scale doll, I'm concerned that the hands themselves may be too small or youthful-looking. They're supposed to be gloves, so I don't want them to be noticeably smaller than his default hands.

 

So I really really love the Ming legs with the thigh peanuts. I’m already planning two more custom orders with Ming legs modded with peanuts; one a werewolf (which means PAWS), and the other a unicorn, which will involve an upsized Nian horn. For the unicorn, I’m wondering if Resinsoul would be able upsize their little Ox’s tail for her…

 

Don't see why they wouldn't! Or custom do something similar. I remember seeing in the SD-scale Resinsoul dolls thread that somebody had a custom goat tail made for their doll.

 

Just took a look through that thread and saw the custom goat tail. I had no idea Resinsoul could make something completely custom like that! Incredible!

 

AAA seeing all these custom resinsoul dolls make me so excited for mine to ship aaa almost at the 40 day mark
