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.

Would you purposely buy a body with different resin colour than a head?

Nov 2, 2022

    1. I'd be most grateful if you could share! Actually, I have just ordered DC white body so it's done, urge to complete her is too real :sweatDefinitely my last purchase for this year...

      Here you are! Sorry I'm on mobile and I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the images to show properly from there. This is in natural light for you. It was still cloudy XD

      Hehe, grats on the body! I definitely understand the urge to finish a project.
       
    3. I've done so before and just airbrushed the head to match but I prefer not to.
       
    4. Thank you! Gosh, here it looks so pale, hope my body will match or I'll force it to yellow to ivory :sweat Now the wait game begins, I'm so deep in imagining her color palette, clothes, hair <3 TBH I will probably try to find second-hand DC white body casted in similar period, it's probably my best chance for actual resin match.
       
    5. You are most welcome! Yeah, this is my first white skin BJD so I'm not quite used to how pale it is either lol. I also have no idea what rate DZ yellows in, so can't help you there. I got this head for a Miracle Doll body, so I'm here just hoping they yellow at equivalent rates xD Have patience and enjoy the imaginings hehe! She'll look great!!

    6. If I buy a secondhand discontinued sculpt and would not be able to fully match it to the colour of a new body, then so be it. :lol: For sure would love to have a perfect combo, but if I were to find the sculpts I want, I would personally be so happy with them that I would probably not care about the matching colours that much.

    7. Only if there was no other way to get a cheap body to go with the head. Likely if it was some extreme color I'd dye the head and body to match. I mean it's not impossible given the color differential is not huge. You can always use pigments or spray paint or dye to match but it's a lot of work compared to just buying them to match.
