☆~~ Granado Doll Discussion Part 13 ~~☆

Apr 25, 2016

    1. Aww, sorry it was smaller than usual, but if you had fun that is what matters! And there is always next year!
       
    2. Iwan got some new uh...toys in the mail a couple of days ago. He's rather happy with his haul of poisons, acids, and medicines. The surgical tools and anatomy posters were quite nice too. :)

    3. He looks really happy though! That may be a bad thing for you. ;)

      Where did you find the props? I've been looking for something like that myself.
       
    4. Given that one of the little bottles is labelled 'chloroform' I am just a tad worried now. XD
      I got them all from BJD jewelry and props by AtriumHoshino really lovely quality too. And very well packed!
       
    5. Wow, @Quiet and Insane those are amazing little props! Iwan must be in heaven (or some equivalent ;) )
       
    6. @Quiet and Insane that is a very alarming photo! :horror: Who knows what he'll think to do with all those little goodies!
       
    7. I didn't know they had surgical tools!! (we can't let Hawley see those....)
       
    8. @fishcake - I believe Iwan refers to that as his laboratory. ;)

      @Alewife - Certainly not perform experiments on the other dolls while I'm at work. Or me while I'm asleep. I hope.

      @Girrl - Hahaha, I think Hawley and Iwan would get along quite well.
       
    9. Hawley and Iwan would sit around comparing notes and considering new projects. @Quiet and Insane you may wake up to find one of your other dolls disassembled :o
       
    10. Love the goodies Iwan has at his disposal. I hear the phrase 'be afraid be very afraid.' whispered softly.

      I finished my V-01s faceups and have begun to look for their look but I think they are taking over just like my KangUk twins did. Though these two look very different from each other. I need to get a photo of them together but my new kitty is making getting outside very hard with just one doll, and inside photos are too dark.
      This is MinWoo the other one is JoonKi.

    11. They are really cute--love the hair <3
       
    12. I'm loving JoonKi. Isn't it fun how different the same sculpt can be? I could be quite happy with a gaggle of V-01 guys around.

      @Quiet and Insane Oh, that is the perfect set for Iwan! Better keep the matches or flame-throwers away from him... ;)
       
    13. Thanks, I love them both because they are so different :cool:. Now to get the four of them together and a name for their group :?
       
    14. @fishcake - That would not surprise me in the slightest. :|

      @SteamWitch - Believe me, I'm starting to rethink this. XD
      Your twins are so cute! :D

      @aernath - You'd think with an arm injury like that he'd have learned his lesson and would stay away from fire. Nope.
       
    15. (Iwan, grumbling) "This fellow is strung quite tightly") hehe!
       
    16. @SteamWitch - Super Resin? Can't wait to see your band all together! :)
       
    17. @Alewife That is a clever name in keeping with Kpop. It will be considered by their management, lol...
       
    18. "I may have to get out the scissors and cut those strings!" :mwahaha

      How about Resin Rock? Or Rockin' Resin? ;) Do you have microphones for them? Guitars? I'm itching to see these guys perform!
       
    19. I have two microphone looking flashlights but I will probably get more. I have two Fender guitars and a drumset but they might just be a singing group. I was going to attempt to make a keyboard, so I'm not sure yet. I had a band named 'Disjointed Confusion' but most of the members are no longer with me.
      You will probably see them before they get their act/look together as I am trying to do three things at one time. I just spent the day rearranging my work area to make it as cat proof as possible. UGH! But if he is out there then maybe I can get a full night's sleep.
       
    20. While my boy's head is overseas, I bought him a chair. Because he'll need a throne to sit on when he's complete. I think it might be just a tad too big for him though...

    21. Hmm... the chair DOES look throne-like! Maybe big if it were meant to be a normal chair... but the arm and seat height look right! :3nodding:
       
    22. I don't think so, thrones need to be impressive! That is a cool chair!
       
    23. I'm so in love with this chair it's ridiculous. XD The wood's real mahogany, plus the detailing and finish is amazing! I think @Darkling might have another one for sale that's got cream white cushions, so if anyone's been thinking about a throne for their large guy or gal, I totally recommend this chair!

      Plus it's really supposed to be for him and his best friend/partner/it's complicated. Two 70 cm boys look even better than one on it. XD
       
    24. I'm with fishcake, thrones are meant to be big and impressive. I love how relaxed he already looks in it! lol
       
    25. Ahhh, it's so cool to see that your boy loves this armchair @sno4wy I sold the other armchair aswell and the buyer is happy too. I have way too much furniture like this at home.

      I think a chair/throne like this needs to be impressive, just right for beefy guys!

    26. Finally took some pictures of Neptune (Duke) and his pal, wearing one of his new shirts by aernath. I actually live near the beach, but I'm not anxious to get sand all over my dolls, so yay for photo backdrops!

    27. He looks great! Pua shell necklace and aviator sunglasses!
       
    28. Duke looks fab, @april ! I love his little doggy friend. He makes the perfect beach bum :D
       
    29. @ April you can spam him anytime..we'll really need that sunny face around January here! And that is a super backdrop!
       
    30. @sno4wy what an awesome chair! You may like the scale better once he has a head, wig, clothes etc, but I think it looks great now. :)

      @april I love your Duke. He has such a sweet expression!
       
    31. Duke looks like a great beach bum. He and Austin should get together and talk surfing, dude.

      The group together though not a great photo. They all have different personalities.

    32. I feel like I have a backstage pass :)
       
    33. They all look great! I want to hold up little paddles with their names on them. ;)
       
    34. SteamWitch-- they definitely look like they all have distinct personalities! What a cool crew!

      And there are a number of beach bums Duke would love to hang out with, here! He and Austin should road-trip and visit aernath's boys. They are always looking cool and tropical wearing those shirts and shorts!

      Here's another shot showing the shorts--
      [​IMG]

      I got the pua shells from Michael's... I was totally haunting there for beads in the right scale, but this guy is the first guy who would wear anything like that. I almost just made a necklace for myself out of them, they've been sitting around for so long...

      Doggie is Iplehouse's Boston Terrier, named Bingo (or sometimes, Dude or The Dude).

    35. Has anybody seen the teaser for the new male body, Granado Embody?

      It looks like it might be 1/3 (?)
       
    36. I have! It looks very sexy, but I'm betting it's 1/4, since Fashion Dolls seem to be all the craze now...
       
    37. Pretty sure it's the 68cm Crocus has been working on...I can feel money escaping my wallet soon. ;)
       
    38. I doubt it's a 1/4. Right now Terra is in 1/4 and he does not seem to be very popular. I don't think Crocus would spend his time sculpting another one that size. I'm also thinking he'll be around the 68/70cm size since that is what the most of us have been asking for since they discontinued the other bodies.
       
    39. @fishcake - Tight stringing? Well...there goes the RingDoll guy... :nowords:

      @aernath - Oh he won't need scissors, he has two bone saws. :sweat

      @sno4wy - That chair is amazing! I love the way the body is posed on it! XD

      @april - My exhausted brain thought Duke was a real human for a second there. Damn he's good looking. :love

      @SteamWitch - Oh they look cool! So who's the Black Butler fan? ;)
       
    40. :lol: They all are, including me.
      I have one practice head that is used as Sebastian but he needs a better suit.
       
    41. Ooh...a skinny boy. Interesting. Those look like Evol hands too. Perhaps this will be the body my Neptune gets (eventually)?

      @SteamWitch - Nice! ;)
       
    42. Skinny is good... skinny and tall that is...
       
    43. Pleeeeeeease let him be 68cm! Not that I had funds right now ... but I'd have one floater's body issue solved. :eusa_pray
       
    44. Slim 68 would be great (or, uh, maybe bad for the bank account!).

      I just love how realistic Neptune looks! It's amazing what sculptors and faceups can do with these bjds...!!!

      Here's more spam--

    45. Whoa! He is amazing!
       
    46. Such good looking spam! :love
       
    47. @april keep the spam coming!

      The new body looks lovely so far. Nice buns. :D
       
    48. My wallet is weeping, my mind is churning that body is wanting to come home to me. Later though lots later....

      I have some names I came up with for my Kpop group what do you think of any of these.
      R3S1N or R3s1n
      Reez-Sin
      ReSin Boyz
      Or keep thinking????
       
    49. I kind of like ReSin Boyz... maybe use one of the first two for the fan group name? or r3s1n8? They're all good, though! ...reSIN BOYz? hmmm.
       
    50. OOOHHHH I like r3s1n8, very much I may probably use it. Thanks @april!
       
    51. r3s1n8 gets my vote too!
       
    52. Archangel series....Michael coming soon, available on both the New Embody or Evol.
       
    53. I'm ridiculously curious for him. I have an OC named Michael who has so far proved unshellable ... wouldn't it just be perfect if Granado's Michael fit the bill? :whee:
       
    54. It would be too perfect to pass up. :)
       
    55. Nice teaser, he doesn't look sad like Enoch.
       
    56. Ooh, I wonder if some other heads will work with the new body? (what am I saying... I do NOT need more dolls!!!... but Enoch... *sigh* and so many others!!!) :whee:

      Michael does look promising, too. (agh!)

      Anyone know the meaning behind the name "Granado"? I've been curious for ages...
       
    57. Chevy Granado? lol No, that's Chevy GranadA! lol ;)

      Ugh, I hate that I had to miss out on Enoch (hoping for a much later re-release), and now an angel proper? Michael? Argh!
       
    58. really hoping the new body is 66-68 with new heads made for it. don't want bobble heads from Evol.
      but, c'mon, Crocus, teasing isn't nice. give us some data. (although thank you for the nice view)
      it's probably same neck size as Evol, very tall, just more slender. good for my wallet.

      ;)
       
    59. @april - I remember doing a search for Granado and some other word in the past and found something that said that it means "saffron flower", maybe in Japanese? I've really got no idea though, as I don't speak Japanese. x_x

      @aernath - It looks like they don't have limited ordering periods for their guys on their Taobao site, so while it'd be a hassle, theoretically that should mean that you can get him whenever you want... XD
