Spiritdoll 1/4 Smart Mini discussion Part 2

Thank you for replying. I guess that's the way to go

 

My previous photosession had tragical end. Wind was blowing, Lynn was unstable and then she fell and smashed her face I was so upset. Face was OK, but face-up shattered. I decided to change her face-up. Now I'm pleased to introduce you new Lynn

Spiritdoll Snowdrop

 

@Eirien, Lynn is lovely with her new faceup!

 

Tragedy!! I was getting her ready for this past weekends con to take her to the meet and I wasn't gentle enough when taking her old eyelashes off!! I'm so upset!! It took her eyeliner right off! And it's going to be a while before my free time and the weather sync up for me to fix her ):

 

Is anyone else stalking Spiritdoll's website to see what their Christmas event will be?

 

Yes! I am waiting to see what it will be!

 

There is a notice that the Winter event starts Nov 23rd!

 

Be still my bleeding wallet...

 

the body of the pyrus is single jointed or double?

also i have a questions
i want to make custom order eyes for mine
(12mm)
but i dont know what seems more realistic and could fit well
and doesnt look odd
so i dont know to choose the high dome or with a low dome
or should i make theme with the small iris?

 

omg she looks beautiful ! I'm sorry for the accident happened to her but you did a great job on her new faceup !! Don't mind me asking what eyes is she wearing? **

 

I never posted pics of my girl. After my chaotic long wait and they accidentally skipped my order (yikes) I've had her home a bit, but I still need to do a lot of work. I am going to send her out for a faceup because I don't like the faceup I got from the company. The blushing on the chin just makes it look odd and since she is my favorite sculpt of all time, I know how much potential is there. Her eyes still want to sit wonky in her head, but today we made progress! They still aren't perfect, but it's the first time I've looked at her and haven't completely hated it after I put the headcap back on. I love her to pieces and I'm so glad she is home. So please welcome Sivvy (Sylvia Barrington) to the group. Here is my album of pictures for your enjoyment. I can never get my pics to load properly on here so if anyone wants to re-link them here-feel free.

Thank you a lot She is wearing Glass Natural Flatback PW oval eyes from Kemper dolls (12 mm, green color). Live it looks much better than on promo photos.

 

Does anyone know about staining on the spiritdoll tan dolls and if it is just a sealant issue? Would a faceup artist be able to cover it?

 

What kind of staining?

 

It looks like it may be from sealant. It's only on the head. The seller says it's because the tan doesn't hold up over time. So there is discoloration and staining. But it's not on the body. Just the head. Seems like that would happen all over if that were the case.

Maybe they tried to do a faceup and used something funky to take it off and it messed with resin? They claim on the sale page that it's just a product of the tan not holding up well over time though. So I was curious if anyone had trouble with spiritdoll tan and if that staining/discoloration is something that can be covered up.

 

I haven't had mine for very long and she's blank so I don't know anything about staining... PM me the link? I'm really curious to see this discoloration now. The oldest spiritdoll in tan that I've seen was only a year old. The one that I bought my hands from and they're perfectly the same color.

 

Just pm'd you.

 

I've had my tan snowdrop for two years, and I'm pretty sure she looks just as she did when I got her. There's no staining on her at all.

 

Yeah I think that what I eventually gathered from the person was it may have had more to do with what they used to remove their previous faceups than the actual wear of the resin. Ultimately I decided to pass on the sale and keep looking.

 

Probably the best idea - good luck x
