Supia Boys Discussion

@toveb A cheaper option would be to enlarge the opening with a dremel tool. I've done that before with one my heads that also had a rather small slot for the S hook.

 

Yes, I know, but I am too chicken...
Besides, I have an idea for another character that could use the Telesthesia body. I just need to find a good resin match and neck size for that.

 

@toveb I love his sweet expression!

 

They look so cool!

 

Thank you so much Hdtqw

 

Hi!

I'm struggling a bit finding shoes for my Jacob. I found a pair of boots that I like that say the sizing for the uncle size should be for feet smaller than 8.5x3.5 which is EXACTLY my supia boy's size. The large uncle is meant to fit under10.4 cm. If I order the larger size, is it likely to look like clown shoes?

I keep reading that supia boy's have giant legs and feet. Do I order the large uncle size to be safe?

 

Hello everyone! Im thinking of getting a Jacob head and hybriding him so I can make him taller. Anyone know his neck circumference? I can't find any measurements on his listing.

 

I have a jacob. If you show me exactly what you want to be measured, I will do my best!

 

That was so fast! Thank you! Here is what I need. I'm not sure how exactly the neck circumference is usually measured, but this should at least give me a good idea.

 

It might be easier to measure the neck of the Supia body. How tall were you thinking of? I have a spare Jacob head that I could try on another body.

 

Somewhere between 70 to 75 cm. Probably 70 to 72. I think any bigger and his proportions might look a little odd.

 

I'll see what I can do tomorrow!

 

Yay! Thank you so much!

 

@lividdarkangel, Oops! I'm a day late! Here's Jacob on a Doll Family H 68cm body.


I was going to put him on my 70cm Ringdoll body but the ring is too large to fit through his neck hole and I don't have time to restring the body. I held it up and it looked too small with the body. If you want a taller body, I would recommend one that is thinner,

 

@nancy_schroeder_ca Oh no worries! I'm just really grateful for the pic and the thoughts on the bigger body. Sadly after this I just don't think Jacob is gonna work for my character. I need him to be bigger and absolutely shredded. Hopefully I can find a face I like just as much as Jacob. Thank you so much for the info! I really appreciate it.

 

How shredded is shredded? The Supia male body is pretty muscular and has really nice leg and ab development. If you're looking for Hulk or Superman vibes, definitely not it, but regular male swimmer or athlete? Totally.

I had watched a lot of unboxing videos to check out what different bodies looked like, and I thought the detailing on these was just phenomenal. I wish mine posed better, but I'm going to suede it and hope that fixes the issue.

 

I guess I'm just not fond of the slender look for male bodies. I prefer muscular to athletic. The Supia body is more athletic, and also too small for what I'm looking for. I did find a sculpt I think will work for him though.

 

Hello! I hope someone is around to help me out.
I need to restring my Supiadoll boy's body, but I am unsure how the stringing goes.
Do I use only one string from the arms and legs respectively? Or should I bring up both loops from the legs?

Back story: the body was incredibly tightly strung when I got it and there was a slight mishap when trying to put the head on, so I lost grip of the elastic and it all went back down into the body. I do remember it being a very tight fit through the neckhole, which is why I'm unsure of how much elastic I should try to pull through.

 

As far as I remember stringing my boy, it is the usual set up: one shorter loop of elastic connects the arms through the torso/ shoulder joint holes, and one long elastic is folded up into two equally long loops. Then each loop hooks onto one foot and is pulled up through one leg, then through the body and the head hole to be secured with the S-hook. So two loops end up on the S-hook in the head. (Of course, if you work from the head down, take the reverse route.) Sorry I have no links handy, but the Customization & Maintenance forum in the workshop section has tutorials available, and you can find tuts galore on You Tube as well.

 

Thank you! That confirms how I thought it was done. The problem I had when attaching the head was that the s-hook and the elastic was too big to fit through the hole in the head, and somehow my hold slipped...yikes!
