    2. They look so amazing. Now he has an icy stare.
       
    3. @aernath - Oooh what an awesome colour! :D

      Ok I have an idea for the photo competition. But naturally it means I have to go all out and blush an entire doll (it's good motivation really). Plus I'll be away for a while while the comp is running so I don't know if I'll get it all finished in time.
       
    4. After seeing the new pics from Granado about the ot guy, I was just curious. What is the craziest pose you've managed to get your dolls into? I did a whole fight scene with Rinzer and Logan (over Jade, lol) before, but it wasn't too crazy because getting them to stand on carpet is hard enough. I believe I've also gotten Rinzer to hold Jade before too.

      Anyone else? Let me see!

    5. Oooh, new thread! That means inauguration spam :aheartbea

    6. @LuckyXIII I remember your contest pic. It was what drew my attention to Granado in the first place -^^-

      I think my Michael Jackson pose with Nihlus was the most challenging one... Don't have any crazy poses XD
       
    7. We tried some yoga poses a couple years ago... lol

      [​IMG]Granado doing yoga. by aernath, on Flickr

      @Jany So happy to see your project man all done! I think the crutch looks good just like that.

    8. Great shot! I'd like to watch that session.
       
    9. Yoga dudes! :lol: I love it.
       
    10. Yay, new thread and inauguration spam! @aernath, I really like the glittering blue eyes.

      Love the yoga dudes! I haven't challenged the resin crew with too many challenging poses. Maybe I need to torment them more. ;)

    11. Yes! Yes! We love resin torture! :mwahaha

    12. I wondered why I wasn't receiving notifications! Apparently a new thread started. ^^

      Do any of you have girlfriends for your guys? My Jupiter is supposed to have a girlfriend, and I'm trying to decide what he'd look good next to. Definitely NOT the Feeple60 I originally had planned, he'd break her in half! :lol:
       
    13. Rinzer and Jade are a couple (in my icon). Both are Granado. Then Hunter and TJ are a kinda couple, but both are also Granados. If you want, I can show you a Feeple65 near a Granado guy if you still want to go FL.
       
    14. Sure, if you don't mind! <3

      I don't have a preference really as far as brand, just so that they look "natural" together. It does seem that the 65cm girls out there would work better; I just didn't know if anyone had photos before I buy blindly.
       
    15. Ah yes, that's much better. Thank you so much!

    16. Drake looks like he's been through the wringer. (I wonder how many know where that saying came from? Geez, I'm old)

    17. @LuckyXIII - I'm afraid Iwan is far too sensible to be found in any crazy poses. Perhaps I'll be able to indulge you when I (eventually) get Claudio (Neptune) a body.

      @Jany - Aww, Hey there Carlos. :)

      @aernath - Oh wow that's awesome! :D

      @suok2011 - I love him so much! :love

      @SteamWitch - Hmm, I'm going to hazard a guess and say it's a reference to one of those old-fashioned devices used to squeezes the water out of clothes after washing? Poor Drake looks like he needs a good sleep.

      EDIT: Whoops, forgot to add my own photo to the spam~

    18. Thank you, @Quiet and Insane. I think that Neptune's sculpt fits this character very well. I am happy with how he turned out.
       
    19. @suok2011 Jamie is fabulous, love his whole look. :love

      Yes, you got it. Cranked one for my mother when I was little but borrowed one in 1970 and used it instead of paying for the laundromat. That is when I found out the different "squeeze" settings on the wringers that I didn't know existed when I was a child. :eek: My fingers got more nimble after they got pinched a few times.

      Iwan is looking dapper in his very proper clothes and pipe, even if his wounds make me cringe in sympathy.

      New photo of the tired man.

    21. Does the new body fit into Iplehouse clothing?
       
    22. Love him & his outfit! Very nice to see!
       
    23. I can't wait to see the difference in height of my Cohen aka Enoch & the new Titan Awin I ordered thinking somehow he was the same size as Iplehouses HID.... thankfully I ordered his clothing & shoes... I guess I'll have to try sewing small scale for him as I can't seem to locate anyone else that sells his size clothing.
       
    24. The difference between Evol and Titan is HUGE. I opened Hunter (Neptune) at a meet up. Nothing I brought for him fit which is why he was naked the whole time (Binx, my Mr.Kitty was his censor bar). The Titan belongs to my friend. Not only is he huge, but he weighs a ton.
      [​IMG]meet up 3/5/16 by Heather, on Flickr

      I know it looks off in the picture, but they are side to side. Hunter is on a stand but he still looks tiny next to a Titan!

    25. Thank you for the picture!! He is huge, now he will be my biggest boy in my collection!
      If anyone else has pictures please let me see them!
       
    26. No huge guys here. I thought I'd post a nice photo I shot today of Drake and Dakota. Drake is just a guy, smart, intuitive and he can recognize non humans. Dakota is a shape-shifter so Drake looked into the guy's past and found he was a pretty savvy tech dude and all round nice guy, so he hired him to work with his team.
      Dakota is new here so they had a moment.

    27. @SteamWitch - Oh good, I do know what it means! How's that for a wild stab in the dark? They had different settings too? That's pretty cool.
      Thank you! The pipe was a gift from a friend. :) Iwan does need suspenders though, as those EID pants just fall right off his skinny butt. He's far too decent to show off the other scars he has (mostly self-inflicted experimentation), but the burns are a good example of why you should always be careful when playing with chemicals in the lab. They were inspired by the fact that when he arrived his left arm would always curl up into itself. It was as if he was hinting to me that he'd injured it somehow. Restringing his fixed the issue, but it's part of his story now, and I had a lot of fun making the scar.
      Drake and Dakota look very relaxed all snuggled up like that. :)

      @suok2011 - Aww, they look so sweet together!

    28. GAH--new threads mean no alerts! I hate that...

      SO many great photos!
      @suok2011 -- love seeing your Jamie/Neptune so much. I'm a fan!
      @aernath -- cool seeing your tan Neptune. How does he look with all your sunshine guys?

      So of course there is a bit of a New Year's sale at Granado with Michael being one of them... and here I am still waiting for my Michael at the regular price (plus extra for layaway!--I hate that). But oh, well. I sort of knew it would happen. I think that happened when I ordered Neptune, too. I always fear that they won't re-release dolls, even though they usually DO!). Ah, well! --I'll be fine when I finally get him home, though! Waiting is such a killer... :wantshipping:
       
    29. @Quiet and Insane I love your Neptune's look<3 did you make his clothes or buy them? Where did you get that awesome vest?

      @Mrkendoll1 He makes a wonderful Jamie! I love the show outlander and you really did it justice!
       
    30. When did you order?
      I'm getting nico; he'll be my biggest.
       
    31. (Trips over new thread) Here everyone is!
      @aernath those eyes!!! so perfect and sparkly!
      @derilan85 the Evol body..sort of..fits EID stuff around the shoulders, pants waists are too baggy. You need to do a bit of alterations at best.
       
    32. EID shoes fit perfectly!

      Yeah, the new threads always lose me for a page or two... or more! I wish there was a way that kept the Watch Thread thing going...!
       
    33. Hello~
      I've been lurking these threads for a while, as I love Granado's sculpts, but never joined because I didn't have one (and I'm horrible at keeping up with discussion threads, but I want to try again!). Well, two of my wonderful friends got me a V-07 head for Christmas and I picked him up earlier this month. He's gorgeous and I have no idea what I'm going to do with him, since I decided against my original plan once I saw him in person.

      My first picture of him is terrible, as I opened him in a restaurant (that apparently doesn't believe in good lighting) because we had a minimeet of sorts. ^^
      [​IMG]

      My friend also sent her Saturn and Enoch head home with me. Saturn is going to be blushed, which is exciting as I've never blushed a doll that large (and he's gorgeous). Since they're here and she gave me permission, I took a bunch of comparison pictures the other day. If anyone is interested, I posted them in the comparison thread, but they are also on my Flickr with some pictures that I didn't post in the thread.

      I look forward to more pictures of everyone's dolls. They are all gorgeous and so amazingly put together. :'D

    34. Look at that. Michael will be available on my b-day. Is it a sign ... ? :lol:

    35. jany, I think it is.
       
    36. @KiwiNinamori - My Neptune doesn't have a body let alone clothes to put on it. I think you may have gotten your tags mixed up.

      @LupusDarkmoon - Eee! He's gorgeous! :D What a cool present! Congratulations!
       
    37. @LupusDarkmoon He looks great, mine is a nightmare head so his eye openings are teenytiny. I look forward to seeing how the faceup on an open eye sculpt comes out.
       
    38. Oh, they're rereleasing Michael!! I dunno if I can resist a second time around...
       
    39. Yikes, I turn my back for a minute and miss three pages of chat. I'm really enjoying all the photos, especially the snuggly couples. :)

    40. I received my Michael+Embody today!!! :D:D:D
      A quick shot of him! He's nude, but I censored the parts. Check under spoiler ^o^!

    42. Requesting spam of Enoch and Michael ... trying to decide who to get (money tree permitting) ;)
       
    43. @flivine - Ooh he's lovely!

      And now I'm kicking myself. Gah I want Michael's head so badly now. I knew that smirk would be the death of me (or my wallet, take your pick). We're allowed to order just heads with face ups right? I want to do the thing.
       
    44. You can order just head with face-up :-)
       
    45. Oh my. Well then. Looks like I'm doomed to add another floating head to my collection! :lol: Thanks for confirming!
       
    46. Here is Adam to answer the Encoh request! I need to take more pictures of him. I only have the few from when he arrived. ^.^;

    47. Man, I really have missed a lot! New thread and everything! Loving the photo spams.

      @aernath - I really dig your Neptune's brown and white hair. Reminds me of Rogue (of X-Men fame)

      @ryuunohime : I have one of my Granado guys paired with an Elfdoll hybrid. I find they're equally realistic. This is a pretty old pic but here's what they look like:

      [​IMG]

      I really need to take some new photos but it's dark by the time I get home at night and the lighting in my house is poop.

    50. @LuckyXIII I knoooooooow! Is there anywhere to discuss him?
       
    51. No here. I wonder if there is a Granado facebook group? Or we can make one just to talk about their dolls. I'll let you know!
       
    52. idk if we re allowed to link them here? Please tell me if I can't.
      there is a thread in the brigadoon, if you re talking about what i think you are..><
      link
       
    53. Yup, that's what we're talking about. I forget that part of the forum exists. I still think it would be fun to make a FB group too. Just to spread more of the Granado love around <3
       
    54. I would love a FB group, I'm much more active there than here. ^^
       
    55. ohhhhh the lovely two!
