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.

Unoa hybrids? Other bodies that work with Unoa face plates (part 2)

Aug 17, 2011

    1. it's a unoa lusis paradise skin head not FL !
       
    2. Sorry, whoops- no idea how this post got here or if I was making it in another thread... that'll teach me to forum trawl while I am brainfogged.
       
    3. hi so...buff isnt making unoa headbacks anymore...does anyone know where or how to get one now a days? there doesnt seem to be any on the official site either.
       
    4. I got a b-grade tan head back directly from Alchemic Labo's website! It was super easy and bc I went through the recommended agent they gave me a free faceplate as a gift!
       
    5. yeah i looked on the aclhemic labo website, currently it seems they have a few full dolls and faceplates up but no headbacks.

    6. Has anyone ever done a hybrid with Unoa head + the guard love 1/4 body? Specifically looking at the “chubby” body. It says neck circumference 6.9cm so I assume that would work with a buff head back, no?

    7. anyone know a good match for paradise skin? i know FL can be blushed to match....
       
    8. I love this thread! I have always wanted an unoa lusis, but have had trouble finding her as a full doll. Faceplates seem to float around everywhere though, so this is awesome! :D
       
    9. i think they still have tan b grade faces on their site with headback if you are interested

      Just if anyone was interested. I took my 40cm Momoni Toffee body and put the Unoa Lusis tan head on it. It works pretty decently. The color match isn't perfect, but if anyone want to know or wants to see more pics let me know!

    11. Was wondering if what skin tone for Unoa would best fit fairyland body, I’ve always liked fairylands bodies but the Unoa faceplates just have a certain charm.. trying to get back into the hobby
       
    12. I've done this hybrid with a (possibly slightly yellowed?) "normal skin" Unoa back in 2012 or so. Back then what I had to do was dye a little pink into the unoa faceplate. You could (or an artist could) easily blush pinks into a faceup to make this match, I think.
      This is the Before picture from that project.

    13. i think it might work with any of the bodies, cause the neck circumference is the same for all three. and the circumference is the same as a minifee? so im just wondering what colors work best.
       
    14. I am wondering if anyone has put the elder brother heads on another body? Their default ones aren’t my style :sweat info about size and color is much appreciated.
       
    15. I've seen someone put one on the IoS class50 and you'd think it'd work well but it looked quite awkward and the neck wouldn't fit properly.

      I've considered the Miracledoll 47cm Baiye body, but I have not ordered it to try yet.
       
    16. i had fresh skin elder faceplates with buff headbacks on souldoll nl soulkid boy bodies a while back, it took some blushing on the faceplates for them to match perfectly, but the proportions were really nice.
      i currently have a fairy skin default xyle faceplate on the 1.5 unoa boy body. the faceplate needed to be modded to work on the 1.5 headback, but i really love how they look.

      This is unoa sist (yellowed? fresh skin) and Unoa heels (same) on an old yellowed Dollzone body with the unoa headback. Fits perfectly, the resin match is nearly 1:1 and she stands super solid.

      Don't I just love when I accidentally ruin my plans, I was planning to dye the sleeping sist faceplate to match a tan body that I'm waiting for but now I kind of want to keep this :sweat

      Edit: I cracked and gave her a faceup. Hello new doll :chibi

    18. Question to anyone with paradise skin headbacks - does the resin feel slightly slippery to you as well? I've been trying to suede the neck with hot glue but it just keeps peeling off the headback very easily, wondering if anyone has found a stickier solution?
