1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Resinsoul centaurs!

May 18, 2016

    1. Wow, that wig is so cute on her!
       
    2. Has anyone got an Resinsoul centaur as well as a Fairyland or Luts centaur and could comment on how they compare? Do they go together well?
       
    3. I have a Kid Delf Centaur on the way. My ResinSoul is unstrung, but once I get my Kid DELF, I can take pictures for you! It will be awhile though since I ordered in late December.


      Also, haha, talking about restringing. My poor Spring is in pieces and has been for about a year. I am having trouble restring her. Its the middle piece that has me confused, what elastic goes where? Can anyone help me?

      I took her apart to sued her and body blush. Im doing all the work on her myself. Im confused on the best way to string her centaur parts, and how the elastic goes. If anyone can just draw me a quick reference of how she is strung, that would be perfect! Just need to know how the elastic is laid out. Thanks a bunches.

    4. That would be fantastic, cheers :)
       
    5. I imagine somebody will provide you with better reference (mine's all packed away right now!) but I'll try to help all the same! I've restrung mine many times whilst doing all the body blushing, and if I remember right it's relatively simple. The front legs string exactly like ordinary legs do. One long loop from the ankles up to the head. The hind legs string from the back hooves up to the waist, you can tie it off and have the knot in the doll's belly.

      If you want it super tight, you can take the hind leg elastic right up to the head as well, but I found that just made it way too unstable and kicky for me, I tied it off at the waist instead. It's pretty simple, but just to make it clear just in case: There are three loops of elastic, one for each set of limbs. One for the arms, one for the forelegs, and one for the hindlegs. The forelegs elastic travels up the human body to go on the S-hook, the hindlegs elastic travels up the deer body to knot at the waist. (Admittedly Resinsoul may have shipped the doll to you with every piece of elastic pulled up to the head, arms and hindlegs included. It's up to you if you want to do that, I don't tend to find it necessary or worth the hassle.)

      If I understand your question correctly: that middle piece, the one that connects the human parts to the deer parts? Both forelegs and hindlegs elastic runs through it as normal, left on the left, right on the right, etc etc. But tie off the hindlegs there if you like, and run only the foreleg elastic right up through the torso to the head.

      Sorry that that's a written description rather than a drawing, but hopefully that helps!

    6. Speaking of comparisons, I don't know if it's a comparison anybody would be interested in, but sometime in the coming months I should hopefully have a Loongsoul 1/6 centaur arriving! I decided I wanted a different look for my character, and the sculpting on their bodies was more like what I needed. I'll be letting go of my Resinsoul centaur most likely, but before I do so, I'll happily share some photos of the two side by side!
       
    7. Thank you. Yeah the middle piece where it connects the human parts to deer parts is the one that confused me. Makes a lot more sense now.
      I will try to restring once I get some fresh elastic. c:

    8. Anyone know what size eye summer takes? I was thinking 12mm (He's supposed to be a young child)
       
    9. Mine is wearing 14mm low-dome eyes.

    10. In this picture Autumn's wearing 12 mm eyes (sorry, I don't have a Summer but they should be pretty similar)

    11. Ooo both look really good. Thank ya for the info.
       
    12. Sun told me they have 12mm eyes.

      I just ordered a Summer in dark tan. I don't want him to be a deer but an actual Centaur from my AU so I'll be giving him fur to cover the cloven hooves and wrapping a thin piece of black elastic covered in brushed out black wool around the little deer tail to make a horse tail. Not sure if I'll be blushing with pastels or watered down sponged on acrylic to paint/blush his horse parts but maybe a blend of both. I'll be making his wig myself.

      Summer doesn't seem very popular but he's perfect for my needs! He's exactly the right size to be my SD doll's young son.

      Because he can change between centaur and human form I might one day get him a human body but the yosds seem a bit too small to be the right scale with my SDs.
       
    13. Can't wait to see another Summer. Mine'll be mostly in the human thread since he'll be on the Xu body. XD I can't wait to get him home though.

      I wound up ordering the 12 mm and since Song takes 14 mm I ordered my Song's eyes too. So we'll see what looks better in him when I get him home. I'm so excited.
       
    14. NEW DOLL!

      Can it be classified in centaurs (・ิω・ิ)?

    15. That is beautiful!
       
    16. I just ordered a doll and RS releases this. CURSE YOU SUN AND YOUR AMAZINGNESS.

      Goodness a dragontaur. That is just so COOL!
       
    17. I think it’s the deertaur body with just a few minor modifications, so I think it should belong here too!

      It’s very cool of them to see what more they can do with the body type, and that transparency is lovely!

    18. Seriously, they're nailing it in the transparent department. That gradient from red to blue on the tail is gorgeous.

    19. I just found the dragontaur on the website! That's so cool I went "Eeeek!" when I saw it. I think I need one of these!
       
    20. Hmm maybe I wonder if the dragon fits Pixius legs..
