☆~~ Granado Doll Discussion Part 14 ~~☆

Aug 25, 2016

    1. I have seen at least two Michaels/EMbodies here in the thread :) So there are a few out there.

      The 2012 'new' supergem isn't that buff I'd say; wider than the old/first supergem, yeah, but still rather normal sized for a 65cm doll. The very new supergem has even wider shoulders :) The reason I'm wondering about the EMBody is that from the pictures alone I had the feeling that he's more or less comparable to a Iplehouse EID (or SID), but EID Shoulders are 19cm wide (incl. arms). My Ringdoll RGM04 body has 15cm wide shoulders, for comparison, and that one is very lanky for a 68cm doll.

      Shoulders measurements including the arms from the evol body would help me too :) According to Granado its 0,5cm wider than the EMbody, so I can at least assume how wide the EMbody shoulders are.
       
    2. Give me ten minutes and I will do the Evol body for you!
       
    3. resin comparison question - does Granado normal have a decent match to any of Impldoll's colors? I'm hemming and hawing over a (girl) body for my Jaden
       
    4. @meanae my Enoch is 43 centimeters around the shoulders--I took some pix as well.

      @Girrl Jaden is a warmer pink than most of the Impldoll standard colors at the moment--as I recall he was almost a peach gold. He matched the pink old Soom body well, though.

    5. :sigh I was afraid of that answer.
       
    6. Means around 20cm in width alone, from the outer side of the arm to the other side? Then the EMbody is probably around 17-18cm, no wonder the heads looks kind of small. Thanks a lot!
       
    7. The Granado boys look really nice on the older Sooms--I have a Gabe head that timeshares across two bodies, the Lads and the old Soom Girl body :D

      @meanae no problem! I've been meaning to measure him anyway...
       
    8. I've seen your Gabe and love how she looks on the Soom body, but Phiahn is a free spirit of the 1920's and it would be a whole lotta sanding with those sizeable SG boobs
       
    9. ROFL so true!
       
    10. Hello everyone~

      As of yesterday, I paid my titan guy in full (I ordered the head first, then the body)~ I'm trying to reshell a character. Hopefully, he'll work out, so I can keep chatting with everyone here. ;v ;
       
    11. Hello, @SugarCoatedStars ! I hope he works out, too. But everyone's welcome here whether you own a Granado or not. :kitty2
       
    12. @Quiet and Insane Waiting impatiently for photos. *taps foot* ;)

      Great day, humidity relented and I have 2 coats of sealant on Drake and will start his faceup tomorrow. YYYYYYassssssss!
       
    13. Aw. Thank you for welcoming me ;v ;

      I'm getting Nico! <3
       
    14. @SugarCoatedStars - Welcome and congratulations! I adore Nico and I can't wait to see photos of him. :D

      And now the moment you've all been waiting for... ;)
      "Please my dear, vould you kindly accompany me into the laboratory? I have something to show you."

    15. OMG how could you doubt the sincerity of a man like that. *giggles* Great photo of Iwan, the flowers are a great touch.

      I'm going to start Drakes faceup in mere moments as soon as I can breakaway from here.

      Edit: Drake is shaping up.

    16. Love him already! :D
       
    17. Okay, I admit it... I'd go. :lol:

      He's great, Q&I.
       
    18. Awwww! Iwan looks so endearing! Is that lavender?

      Drake is looking good!!


      YAY! Another Nico! I love mine. He's such a ham. lol

    19. Lol @aernath I love how there's the one, lone, 8.5 amongst the 10's! :XD:

      And I got my V-07 today!! :dance Instagram photo by Lydia • Dec 30, 2016 at 4:49pm UTC
      I'd start working on his faceup right away as well, but I still have to wait until my April Story order gets here, to see how much modding I might need to do to get a good fit. Also the resin color - I expect it won't be a perfect match, so knowing me, I'd likely overblush way too much and then he'd match even worse! :o
       
    20. @AirimirOfGondor he's so good looking, even blank! Congratulations and fingers crossed that he will fit!

    21. @aernath That photo cracks me up. Caption in my head: "Are you a dummy? Give him a 10 or ... look at him! you're toast."
      @AirimirOfGondor Congratulations on getting your V-07. I also have to wait on other stuff for mine so I am playing at the moment.
      Found a wig I like better on Drake it goes with his coloring. I'm having a great time taking photos, he is on a too small body but it's only temporary (heard that one before). Hubby said I did a good job on his faceup, he especially likes the beard. *smiles*

    22. @fishcake thanks, I hope so too! :eusa_pray

      @SteamWitch I like your boy's beard as well, I plan on giving mine one too! :XD:
       
    23. I would definitely go with Iwan. What could possibly go wrong??

      @SteamWitch Drake is looking very good! Love the beard.

      @AirimirOfGondor congrats on V-07's arrival!

    24. @SteamWitch - Hehehe, thanks! :) Drake looks awesome! :D

      @Brightfires - Thank you! He does look rather convincing doesn't he? ;)

      @aernath - 'Tis indeed lavender! From my backyard no less. All the better to put you to sleep with. ;)
      I am forever in love with that photo, it never fails to make me grin. :D

      @AirimirOfGondor - Yay, congratulations on getting him home! :D

      @Alewife - Well many things could go wrong...though it depends on who's perspective it is. ;)

    25. @Quiet and Insane he just looks so sincere! Who wouldn't want to pop down to the lab and see what's on the slab? ;)
       
    26. Yay for measurements! I hope you had a good trip, Therealwalter!

      ---

      Happy New Year to everyone! :chocoberry
       
    27. Yes, Happy New Year to all our Granado family. :)
       
    28. Yes indeed!
      @Therealwalter how does your guy manage to look sexy with tape stuck to him? And it's a happy accident his eyes match the wall :D
       
    29. Yes well...the only thing is it might be you or I on the slab. :shudder

      Happy new year everyone! :D May it be a year filled with many good things (and more money for dolls ;) ).
       
    30. Happy new year! Lots of dolly joy and speedy (January) arrivals :dance

    32. Happy new year from mee too, and thanks a lot @Therealwalter! That helped me a LOT :D
       
    33. Happy jolly dolly new year! (I like that, steamwitch!)

      So nice seeing more photos of that syringa resin!
       
    34. Wow, gotta catch up on this thread! Was a busy holiday for me so I missed quite a bit, but I love how active this thread is. I can't wait until I can participate--I got my shipping notice today! <3

      @Therealwalter I love your Michael. And that syringa color! I wish I had gotten a Michael but the funds just weren't with me. Pleeease post him more often~

      @SteamWitch Great work! I love his beard, too. :) Drake is the AC character you're making, right? (Hopefully I'm not confusing you with someone else, eek!)
       
    35. Heh heh heh... May the Funds be with you!

    36. Maybe, Drake Warlock is the *cough* leader of a loosely organized group (to be assembled) of supernatural hunters.Which is funny since there are tons of them in the boarding house and he likes them. The group does it for the money but more like Bannister in the 'Frighteners'. More show than actual hunting.

    37. Yep, I confused you with someone else. :( I'm sorry! I like your concept...I look forward to seeing more hunters.:wiggle
       
    38. Congrats on the Shipping Notice, @ryuunohime !!! I hope you get him home soon!

    39. @ryuunohime - Ooh congratulations on the shipping notice! I hope your doll has a speedy trip home. :)

      @Mire Lapin - I feel like we should have some sort of alumni get-together. :lol:
       
    40. Lots of calimari ;)

    41. SORRY. I'm terrible at keeping up with threads. ; v;

      What a handsome guy-- and, thank you! I'm totally excited!

      Your Nico is handsome! Thank you for sharing him! There aren't enough of them; I saw your good-looking guy whenever I searched for pictures of the sculpt. I'm pretty excited to see where I can go with mine.
       
    42. No new Granados to share I'm sorry (I wish!) but I have my "old" Sidonia to pop in with. I have wanted to give her a fresh face up for a long time. I had a day off work, the sun was shining...here she is now with a new look :)

    43. @Alewife & @fishcake - Good thing I like seafood. :lol:

      @SugarCoatedStars - Thank you! :) Iwan doesn't always get as much attention as my other guys (photography-wise at least), but he's a lot of fun to have around. Hehe, I bet you're excited! There's nothing quite like the feeling of paying off a doll and then waiting to get the shipping notice.

      @LyanneNZ - Ooh she's quite lovely! :D

    44. @LyanneNZ ooo I am so happy to see Sidonia! She looks so beautiful--her faceup is glorious! Thank you for sharing her! (I love seeing the "old" guys so much).
       
    45. @LyanneNZ she's so beautiful. <3 I hope you show more of her!
       
    46. @LyanneNZ , I love see all photos--of dolls new and old. They brighten up the thread so much. Your Sidonia is just gorgeous! Love her faceup. And she looks amazing in that photos: such a great pose, too.
       
    47. She perfect! Love the boots! And where in the hell are you that you're getting sun?

      OK, my Uranus came with high heel feet does anyone have recommendations on shoes to fit them?
       
    48. LOL...its Summer here in New Zealand :) Enjoying a few days off before heading back to work next week.

      Here is another of Sidonia but this time my settings were not right and her skintone appears all washed out...

      [​IMG]

      Alewife I realised it is you with the lovely light and dark skintone Sidonias! Went to take a peek at your Flickr again. Lovely!

      Thanks folks. I will share her when she gets redressed again :)

    49. @LyanneNZ - I love her coat! :D And hello from across the Tasman!
       
    50. @LyanneNZ - Oh, your Sidonia is beautiful! We really don't see enough of her on this board. I've always liked that sculpt.

      Man, I am waaaaaay behind on this thread! Hope everyone is doing well!
       
    51. @LyanneNZ I love her clothes! I think the photos are wonderful--hehe and I envy you your sun! It's zero F here right now. The ground is crunchy.
       
    52. @LyanneNZ yes, that is me under one of my aliases. :lol: I really like your Sidonia with the auburn hair. Also, I want to know how you get your Nuevo body to pose so well! I don't have that knack!

      @BlitheFool we've missed you!
       
    53. [​IMG]

      Both of them together, quite a sight :D
       
    55. @ATYL that is so exciting! Though they may be blank for a while--unless you are sending them out?
      (That is such a great sculpt)!
