Soom Super Gem Dia

    1. I'd like to get an NS head and put on my V2 body, and maybe a WS head to put on the Beryl body I have on the way? I should make my way to a Sydney meet one day and see if I can't get chizzie_shark to do a temporary headswap with her Liliana;) I might mod Beryl's body a bit to suit my preference for realism, especially in the bust area, but I don't want to have two or three Soom bodies around when I can make my own. Hopefully some heads will pop up in the MP eventually... or Soom will relent and release her as an optional part.

      Eeep, the feet fell off ~ did the hooks pull out of the feet? They probably should be glued in for extra strength.

    2. OK. I can't find a data base for Dia!
      I'll post Bijou, if I can find the place to do it.

      Found it. Did it.

    3. Chizzie_shark - I added Zaria to the database!

    5. Chizzie_shark - Those were great pictures of Liliana! I really like her new faceup!

    6. I've totally fallen for Dia - she's wonderful! I love her strong features so very much! She's kind of one of those molds I really wasn't sure of at first, but the more I see the more I like her!​

    7. Flamingomoon, you'll find out that it will lead to more and more new things for her, more clothes, eyes, wigs, shoes etc. Not to mention more resins in her size. Dia's are demanding!

    8. Lol, Flamingomoon, you are right ~ if I had the funds I would order one in each colour right this instant. In the meantime I'll have to live vicariously through you guys.

      Bijoux is gorgeous, and Rossetti, and Lilliana, and all the others!!!
       
      #228 twigling, Aug 6, 2008
    9. Well, y'all are absolutely right. Bijou got two new wigs from Soom, and her blue eyes (they goofed and sent the wrong ones when she came). And now she says she needs new outfit to go with "everything".

      Oh, and a boyfriend.

    10. Flamingomoon - These resins are more addicting than any doll I've ever collected, as I see you are now discovering for yourself. Wigs, shoes, clothing, male companions; these girls just never stop!

    11. Flamingomoon, Coleen and I were amazed how different Brid and Zaria looked with the same default faceup. Both equally beautiful but there was no mistaking who was who.

    12. Tsuki56, I have to say that since I'm looking for a companion for my Bijou, I am really pretty taken with the Unidoll Rio. It is between him and Sabik at this point. Lupin is not out of the running either.
       
      #232 Flamingomoon, Aug 21, 2008
    13. D: Unidoll site is down, as far as I'm aware...it's not letting me on, or I'd be able to compare with you XDD

    15. Can you put a Dia head on a smaller girl's body and which size would work?
       
      #235 frushtick, Aug 24, 2008
    16. Hey hey everyone!

      I'm about to buy a WS Dia-head and I have no idea what body to give it.
      The character will be genderless, so I don't want super female bodies but I don't want big muscle bodies either.
      I've thought about a CP Delf boy body, but I dislike the fact that it only has a lower joint and no torso joint.

      The perfect body would have a bit of a female waiste (not too much though) but a bit masculine arms and hands also.
      I know that's an impossible combination but does anyone have an idea for a body?

      I saw somewhere a Dia (I believe it was International Velvet's) with a Twiglimbs body, I loved the arms! Sanding of the boobs wouldn't be a great problem but where the hell can you get these bodies and what price do they have? O_o'

      Ugh, I'm being difficult, aren't I?

    17. Hey Tiggtea, I think there was a total of 4-5 twigLimbs bodies cast in WS and I have no idea who has most of them now, so you'd be hard pressed to find one for sale. I think the best bet would be taking the head to a doll meet and trying it on other bodies to check the fit and modify-ability of those bodies. Possibly a slender male body with 1-2 torso joints does exist and is certainly easier to find than a small-busted female body that would also be proportionate for the Dia head.

      Not sure exactly which other bodies would be good, some say that Dia's head is a bit big even for her original body...

      Something like an Abio Angel or Fantasy Doll body would be about the same size as a CP boy but has different torso articulation.
       
      #237 twigling, Aug 24, 2008
    18. Thanks a bunch for your advice Twigling, this certainly helps!
      It's a pity there are only a few of those bodies out there, they're gorgeous and quite unique also I'd say (especially because of the hands).

      You know, I don't even mind a slight difference in skintones with the body, as long as the body itself looks a bit. . . In proportion and nice.

      Normally I'm not that picky on bodies, but with this character it's quite important I think.

      Edit; Now I'm thinking of it, a normal CP body can't work out with her, right? Because Dia is originally a 65cm doll, putting her on a CP Delf body would look very odd then I assume. SDF would be better then I guess.
      How about DIM Love bodies? Would that be too small also for her?
       
      #238 TiggTea, Aug 25, 2008
    19. If the neck hole on the Dia head is too big for a Elfdoll body could the neck hole be molded smaller? Has anyone ever decreased the neck hole on a head?
       
      #239 frushtick, Aug 27, 2008
    20. You would NOT want to put it on an Elfdoll body. Dia heads are LARGE, more tall than big around, but the neckhole is for a 10 inch neck initially. I dont think she will work on any body less than 60+ cms (height with the head), and a neck circumfrence of 9-10cms.
