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.

Studio *ANother Secret* discussion thread

Oct 4, 2010

    1. Is there anybody who has made their Orchid a boy?
       
    2. What a wonderful face-up!
      And I really like the proportions for the head & body!
       
    3. The face up is from Another Secret :)
       
    4. Took me a bit longer, but here are the photos - Loongsoul 1/3 boy body and Song's head:

      As St. James said in the post #153, Song's 'features are smaller, more delicate and centered lower on the face', that's why a younger looking body fits better, imo. Anyway, the height is actually not the issue and if you mod the neck a bit and don't mind the muscular belly you may give it try.

      11.5cm neck is way too big. And I think this body has the same problem, it is too mature for the Song's features. But sure, it depends on what one's plans are.

      You're lucky, I can't be that happy with ANother Secret face-up, it will have to be redone. :(
       
    5. Thank you so much Tsukasa for posting the pictures :D! That's a great christmas present for me. For me it looks great, I think i'll buy this body! BTW Loongsoul is having an event until 31 december where you can get 20% discount~.

      Yes you're right, the new Souldoll body is unfortunately way to mature for Song.
       
    6. xD I WISH you had posted that a leeeeeettle bit sooner Miyu, because I just got my elf body... but... I like that better! It looks like I'll be keeping my elf body for the newly released DT mini Elysia, who I love like whoa, while Orchid will be migrating to a DT13 year old soon.

      I feel really bad that the Orchid owners have found bodies that work for our girls, but the Song owners all seem to be having allot of trouble with resin match and body style. I hope the Loongsoul bodies continue to work out. ^^

      Also Miyu what eyes do you have in your girl? I've deepened mine's sockets but I'm still having a problem with her eyes sitting flush, they look rather wonky.
       
    7. Just keep in mind that the Loongsoul's normal yellow is actually much more yellow in real than showed in the photos. The body in the photo is the very first batch being ever produced by Loongsoul before they've changed the resin colors a bit. The normal pink may be a better match since the head is pinker than the body. As mentioned before, Luts' real skin normal color is actually much closer than LS, almost perfect.
       
    8. Thanks a lot for the hint regarding the body color Tsukasa. If the color doesn't match properly it shouldn't be a problem blushing the head to match the body, right?

      Another question, how are the proportions of the hands and feet of the Loongsoul body? It would bother me more if his hands are too big rather if he has a sixpack or not.

      Anyone thought of the Luts Junior Delf Body for an adolescent Song ^^?
       
    9. I don't know about resin matches, but maybe the boy body from FantasyDoll is suitable for Song? It is not very muscular and I got one of those bodies, because it is a tad smaller than a CP Delf boy body. (Just a little bit shorter.) Another option would be to get a FantasyDoll girl body and sand the breasts down (or have someone do it for you). I think the girl body could easily pass as a young boy after the right mods as it is not very curvy.
       
    10. Just came to my mind: Glorydoll also got 56cm boy bodies. The Glorydoll heads are very small and young looking, so this body may work for Song: http://www.glorydoll.com/shop/step1.php?number=628
      The bodies are sold out now, but maybe in the future on sale again.
       
    11. Does anybody know when they will be releasing more or doing another preorder?
       
    12. My Orchid, with Another Secret face-up, doesn't have freckles and not like Miyu's or company's photos too. T T
       
    13. Thanks Tsukasa for those pictures. This whole time I've
      been imagining Song head looking like a pea on that body but
      imo it looks OK and all it needs is a smaller/shorter neck. No
      problem! My Song needs the body for it's posing and he would
      be fully clothed so the body aesthetics don't bother me XD

      I'm sure whenever they are ready to sell new sculpts someone will
      announce it OR you can just check their blog regularly HERE!
      I hope they will do a better job to inform us about their future heads
      proportions/matches though. If I only bought them to collect then I
      wouldn't care but I actually wanted to have complete dolls!!

      FairEmma Bamboo is adorable! I can see why you fell for him XD
      And the body does look really good proportion-wise.

      Miyu thank you for your pictures of Orchid, she looks great on the
      DT13 body, very impressed! Pleeease tell us what color she is??
      Sorry if I missed it posted earlier.

      What do you all think of the current sculpt "Mr. Rabbit"? I find him very
      interesting but would probably open the eyes up more.
      It's really almost a dolly miracle that I've held onto my two heads
      this long despite the body woes but it's been a good learning experience
      for me: no more floating heads without a guarantee on bodies matching!!!!!!
       
    14. I gave up on giving every head it's own resin body; the bodies are just too expensive and I simply cannot stop buying more heads!
      So I'm making cloth bodies for them, just using resin hands (and feet sometimes).

      I'm not a fan of 'dreaming' and 'sleeping' sculpts; they look a little bit too much like they are dead to me, creepy....
       
    15. I find him very interesting too and I love his profile, his odd lips and his dreamy expression, but I just can't keep buying every nice head I encounter. :sweat
       
    16. Yet another post from me. ^_^ This time with a picture of my Orchid with a face-up.
      [​IMG]
      The Dollmore resin (she has Dollpire hands) is a lighter and more pink than the head, but it is not as noticeable in real life as in this picture.
       
    17. Miyu, Muisje > You have very pretty Orchid ♥


      The first one is the Orchid of my friend Miyumi. I've done the face-up and the second one is mine. Both are in progress :)

      Orchid is a very strange and interesting mold :)
       
    18. I'm also interested in the matching color of the DT13 body for Orchid, is it oriental skin?

      What eye size looks better to you, 14 or 16mm? Let us know ^^
       
    19. is oriental skin and the match is perfect!
       
    20. Some Orchids just insist on being a bit different, she was only going to have a face up,Honest!
