Supia Girls Discussion Thread Part IX

Yay thank you! I'm trying to understand which color can match my Switch rosy white head, and since I can compare by myself with DFH cause I own one too it's gonna be super helpful hybriding is always a pain for color matching q_q

 

the new girl, Tabitha is so pretty

LOVE, SUPIADOLL

 

Thanks for pointing her out @keara ! She is really pretty!

 

Sorry if this has been answered before. I'm waiting on my girl on the ballerina body. I never had a SD before and the terms are a little confusing. Do you guys have any reccomendations for clothing sizes that will fit?? Like terms I can search in etsy etc. Thanks in advance

 

From what I've experienced, SD or 1/3 girl clothing can fit or can be a little tight depending upon the fabric chosen as the ballerina body is pretty curvy in the thigh/booty area, haha. I've also tried 1/3 boy clothing, but then those tend to be a bit baggy. This thread might be helpful: https://denofangels.com/threads/supia-60cm-ballerina-body-what-fits.829286/

 

I've painted my Naomi, so I show her here! She is still in need of a wig, oops.

 

@Follow-the-Wind, She is awesome! That's a very creative faceup!

 

She looks awesome!! Did you get her in gray skin or did you blush her to be gray?

 

I've also ordered clothing from some etsy stores where the owners took measurements and those have fit great (not sure if we're allowed to plug stores? But please feel free to message me!).

 

@nancy_schroeder_ca , @DawnDusk , @IngieBee Thank you very much! I get her grey skin

 

My lina head finally shipped (arrived in just a couple days, which is nice, but definitely was over the estimated 90 business day mark, fyi)! His name is Lark -- he's a rose pink head with the normal B make up on a DF-H normal pink 56cm body. The head is a pinch paler, but it's pretty much unnoticeable with a faceup in my opinion (the pictures make the difference more noticeable than it looks in person, even). Please excuse his lack of clothing -- I don't have clothes for him yet and the hideously expensive eyes I had bought for him apparently got lost in one of my tWO moves since I've ordered this head, so he might have these in for a while...

If you'd like any other comparisons or other pictures, let me know and I can take some better pictures this weekend.

 

Wow, I love him!
Could you get more comparison pics of the headcap and the body? So I can check the colors better, and maybe I'm finally gonna find out if rose pink is gonna work for my hybrid too

 

So, I took a million photos and this seemed to be the most accurate (the body looks peachier here than it is in person though -- but I think you can see here that the head is lighter):



This isn't a great photo, but you can see the wood flooring here that might be causing the body to look yellower? Either way, I'm posting this in case anyone would like to see a full body shot for proportions of the body to head.

 

Thank you! These pics are perfect, I may really try to get that supiadoll65 body in rose pink cause it looks light enough for my head.

 

Hi, Everyone!

I ordered my Supia Lina this week, so I'm starting to think about the custom eyes that I will have made. I'm using the same person as last time because they did an incredible job! Supia's website says that she takes 16mm eyes, but I wanted to see if I could find any owners out there who could verify that that size fits and looks good. She looks a bit doe-eyed, so I'm nervous about ordering the wrong size.

If anyone has any photos of their Lina, I would really love to see them. I ordered the ballerina body, an extra pair of hands, the heel and pointe feet, and her sleeping head. I am super excited to meet her.

One last thing...Before I ordered my Jacob, I was hunting around for owner photos and there weren't many out there. Before I started trying to mess around with faceups, I might take some photos of the blank head for reference, in case anyone was trying to decide about him. I thought I would like to add them to the forum but wasn't quite sure where to put them. If anyone could point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it!

I hope that I put this in the right spot.

Thanks!

 

References are good. If you have some other thing in shot to show color or scale that also helps. Even more helpful if you do photos of the doll next to other dolls. As for categorization, the post would probably work in either the Main Gallery sub-forum or the Photo Reference section.
I'm still getting the hang of eye sizing myself. The measurements for eyes given by companies/artists seem to be more a suggestion than a rule. My RS Mei is wearing 16mm and my Angell Studio Amy is wearing 10mm, and their heads are about the same size. Insert shrug emoji. Something that has helped is to take a bead that I know the the size of in milimeters and hold it in the eye opening to gauge about what size iris would look good.
