Wow. It's almost like the Nanuri was made to be a girl. XD Fits the Delf girl body perfectly. XD Sucks for Erekor! Thanks for the comparison photos with the Obitsu, fenris. Where the headcap and head both originally the color of the headcap? It looks like the bit of yellowing actually made it almost the perfect shade for the Nanuri '08 head. ^^ I don't suppose anyone has one of the Dreamingdoll bodies from Crobidoll to try the head on? I know the resin match would be crap, but would it look proportionate?
i think that they were closer in color...if i recall rightly, the headcap was always a little lighter...i'll post more comparison pics in the next week or two as i'm ordering another ws obitsu for an upcoming project, that way you can see the comparison with fresh out of the box coloring.
Does anyone in this thread have a NS B&G boy body and this head NS (or anything of similar resin color,) and could take pics of the resin comparison for me please? I'm considering a B&G body for him...its just a teeny bit slimmer...but right now he's sitting on a luts body and i'm getting used to the odd proportions...but i cant afford a Luts body. So help! Please!!
Mine is currently sitting on a luts body...and im getting used to the weird proportions...but i cant really afford ANOTHER luts body. so im looking towards a little less pricey but equally nice bodies.
Okay, mine has arrived and...oh yes, he is tiny. XD It's the smallness of the face that seals it--the eyes are placed lower in the face than on the Luts NaNuRi 07...so while that head looks fine on the Type 3 to me, this one? Pinheaded. X3 Pics to follow later. With clothes he would probably look okay, but...now I'm seriously considering modded girl bodes for him.... Mine is definitely a him, though. *heh* The head is actually pretty close in size to the FeePle Nanuri 07--that one is a tiny bit bigger, but not much, and the distance between the eyes and mouth is pretty much the same...so if anyone is up to chancing the resin from Nobility, you could always go for a Lie body. XD Oh, and I tried both 16mm and 14mm acrylics in him, and while the 14mm work, they are definitely a little bit small so I prefer the 16mm.
I don't think B&G would work as a resin match. I considered that (I can't afford a Luts body either XD), but B&G resin is said to match the Real Skin from Luts, not the regular Normal Skin resin. It would be a LOT paler than the Nanuri's resin. Edit: I also ran into that problem with the Dreamingdoll body from the Crobidoll website; the body's resin is made to match their dolls, which matches Real Skin and thus... too light. XP *nods* 16mm definitely. Let us know how the operation goes if you modify a girl body for him!
Yep. They're itty-bitty little heads... That was pretty much what sealed mine's fate once and for all as being a girl. There's no way that head's going to look right on a boy body. It's even smaller than my poor Vampire Lu Wen, who held the former record for pin-headedness! Luckily, she works perfect well as a girl... If I'd been getting this head with the idea of making it a male, I'd be pretty grumped about the size. It's going to be a challenge to find a male bod from any company that fits. o_O
Is there really a difference...i thought Luts Real skin was similar to Feeple's NS because the real skin is the new ns from luts...i figured they would be similar? Yeah im pretty bummed because he LOOKS like a boy. i dont know if i could make em look girly. :/
-Kittywolf There is quite a difference between FL Normal skin and Real skin, which is a lot lighter. I don't have my sdf camilla handy at the moment, but I'll be returning home soon so I will be able to post a comparison pic. I was planning on putting my Nanuri on the SDF body anyway and then blushing it to match.
XD...I was rather expecting it, though, as I have last year's head, which was also teensy, and I had to go hunting for a body for that one as well...scary thing being that I actually attempted to use that head on the FeePle body at first until it drove me insane with its pinheadedness. XD; The heads actually do look perfect size-wise on the Nobility Lie body, but I've already played resin roulette with them once and don't feel like trying again--I didn't care about resin match when I bought Raym's body as he will always be dressed neck to wrists to boots, so it didn't really matter...but I wouldn't want such a bad match for Schenectady. So yeah...I'm going to be looking for a thin, short, non-hippy girl body to mod for him, methinks.... The 'Real Skin' dolls from Luts are in no way connected to CP/Fairyland, so the resins are not the same at all. The only dolls CP makes with Luts anymore are the 60cm Delf, which is why they come in the old NS/WS and everything else comes in Real Skin.
Oh well ive decided to snag a moddified girl body...it still has work to be done to it but we shall see.
The more I look at him, the more I love him. Yikes, they are just plotting to make our floating head collections bigger!
*Pauses* I'm not... sure, actually. I've never had to deal with the WS comparisons. *Goes to see if she can find out* Okay. So if you take a peek in the Parts section and look at the bodies, at the bottom of the 1/3 boy body section they have comparison photos. From what I can tell, the WS actually looks pretty freaking close. So if you have a WS Nanu, I take back what I said. XD B&G will work if the resin is like that image. They really are. XD They want our money, it would seem. I would love to be able to say "I hate him!" and sell him so I don't have another floating head (or another body to buy!), but... I just can't!
Actually, I was skimming resin match threads and it turns out that Fdoll is a good match for Luts. I had totally forgotten I had looked into that. ^^ Onnawufei has a Woosoo on an Fdoll body that looks great. She makes mention in this thread that her Woosoo looks a little bobbleheaded, so I was wondering if maybe the smaller Nanuri '08 might match proportionately and if the newer CP resin still matches the Fdoll bodies. Edit: Someone also mentioned Nanuri '07 looking better on it, because of his smaller head size. This might be my winner! And because it's not as expensive as the CP or even the Dollzone body, I might be able to buy Erekor a body by next spring and keep him from being a floating head forever! XD The only stipulation is that CPs resin seems to be a bit pinker now than the older dolls.
I finally did my boy's faceup...not the best shots but here they are...poor thing STILL hasnt chosen a name. Thinking Caleb at the moment Hope you like him!
Kittywolf-- ^_^ I love his lips. I hope he thinks of a name soon. Not that there's any rush until he gets a body, of course! XD Actually... my boy STILL doesn't have a faceup. I'm so lazy...
Thanks! Actually his body will be on the way soon. But will have some "surgery" when it gets here, cause i have to refine the mods that had already been done to it. It's a modified Luts girl body...so it should be interesting. He will be a thin and lanky boy....Maybe he's a track runner. XD
psychoticelflet>> would the NS colour work well, though? mine is NS. the fact that it's closer to SD10 size makes me happy, because that's the size difference i had wished for, but i prefer to have my resin tones match reasonably well. it doesn't have to be perfect, but not all thst noticeable either. ;o;
... What? Lol I'm sorry, do you mean the Fdoll body? That's what I was asking of people who might have the body: do the NS resins match up? My head is NS as well, which is why I don't want to buy until I'm sure the resin match is fairly close.
psychoticelflet>> oh whoops, yeah. i thoughyou had one alreasdy. ^^;; my bad. much as the price is far lower than say, a LUTS body (which wuold be too tall, anyway), i'd rather not buy a body that doesn't match my head. D:
Kiradyn-- *nods* No, I completey agree. That's why I'm trying to find out how close the resin match is to the 2008 CP resin before I buy one. The body looks good, is much cheaper than Luts, and would be a good size for the head, but I really want a body that is at least CLOSE to my Nanuri's resin. ^_^ If I can't find photos by next year, I might just buy one to see and resell later if I have to. However, that's a last result, as that's a lot of money for an uncertainty, and I'm generally too practical to let myself do that. ^^; I'm more likely to wait as long as it takes.
oooh, i just got my little nanu head today. :3 i'm not really put-off by the small size of it, though i'd be happier with it on a shorter body, if one is available. but yes, i do think i'll be keeping the little bugger. X3
*squeals and bounces about* i did my nanu's face up today and, despite messing up a little, i'm even more in love with her now! right now she's still borrowing body and wig, and using a pair of spare eyes...but she's still beautiful!!! picspam!
Did my Schenectady's faceup today. I don't have his proper wig or eyes yet, so he's borrowing some...and he's borrowing the Type 3 body in these pics too--doesn't look that bad, really. I was making him that hoodie...but then I realised I didn't have any seperating zippers...so the front is pinned back until I get one. (Oh, and the spot on his cheek is a mole. XD There was a bump in the resin there which may or may not be an under-the-surface bubble...so I decided, hey, I guess he's supposed to have a mole there. XDDD )
Oh he's lovely!! i cant wait till my boy gets his body...theres been a few hiccups with the mail due to all the hurricanes and storms. *sighs*
The body proportion actually looks pretty good in those pics! ;3 Is yours the shorter Type 3 body or the taller one? (I found that my Type 3 body was actually taller than the Type 2 body that came with my Elf Chiwoo--it was very surprising, as I'd thought that the Type 3 would be the shortest.)
Thanks! Mine's only borrowing that body though...it really belongs to my NaNuRi 07. XD I'm probably going to be trying both the female and male FDoll bodies with him for size, as I'm already planning on getting both for other floating heads. X3 I'll be interested to see how your head looks on the body you've bought as well, as both Soom and Luts modded girl bodies are on the short list for me as well! =D My Type 3 body came with my BV Breakaway, and it's definitely the smaller version--it's shorter than all three of my Type 2 bodies, including my Elf Chiwoo's. It belongs to my NaNuRi 07 head now, since the Breakaways have such large heads they don't need such a small body, but Vand does. *heh* The 08 head doesn't look that bad on the body, but it's just a little bit smaller than the 07 head, and that little bit really does make a difference to me especially when I put him next to larger headed dolls on nearly the same size body...so I'm still going for a smaller body for him.
That's really odd, then. Because my Type 3 body is also my Breakaway's. I had initially wanted my Elf Chiwoo to be the shortest one, and was wondering how much shorter he'd be, only to find out that he already was the shortest one. .__.;;; Shoot... I don't know which of my bodies is the anomalous one. ><
That's so strange about the body sizes. I have 3 different type 3s, 1 with a Lu Wen and 2 bought on the secondary market, one NS, and all 3 are the same size as my type 2 bodies. I'll be very interested in seeing Fdoll bodies under this head and if they're any smaller. It really is a problematic size head!
And I would be interested in seeing your nanuri on the FDoll boy body! ^_^ Both for resin match and for proportions.
Well, I just bought an FDoll boy body for my incoming Yder Elf Vamp, and tracking says it should be her on the 16th...I'll be sure to take some pics of the Nanuri head on it ASAP. ...and resin-matching wise, the body I bought is white skin, as I know that matches older, more 'aged' CP white skin...the 'pure white' may match newer heads better, but I'm not sure...it may be too white. XD I'll probably buy a pure white boy body once they're back in stock just to see the resin colour, though. None of which helps with normal skin, I'm afraid...but once I see how the body looks I may pick up one in NS for my Re-Che head, who is pretty close in colour to older CP NS....
still waiting on my girl body. *sighs* all these storms have really screwed up my shipping. its said to be shipped tommorow. so early next week it should arrive at my place. i cant wait...poor caleb has been patiently awaiting. It's coming already with most of the hard work done, but the mods done arnt done very well, so i will be trying to refine the mod work or sending out the body at a later date...but i will definatly take pics for size and proportions...I'm sure Ringo would not mind standing in with his new brother for a few comparison pics. :3 Also if it doesnt look completely ridiculous...i'll be giving the girl body, boy hands...so we'll see how that works out too. O.O; they look a little largish from what I've seen, but the hands the body is coming with are too girly looking for my tastes. So he already has a pair of man hands waiting for the body.
how short is the FDoll body compared to a CP body? the FDoll body sounds like a good body alternative, but i need my nanuri to be shorter than all my other CP boys. D:
acanthiel-- Yeah... I need the NS comparison. XD I need to find someone with an FDoll NS body to compare to the new resin... Or just buy one myself.
The tracking for the body I ordered has updated to an expected arrival of tomorrow. @__@ If it does come tomorrow, I should be able to get some quick pics of the head on it tomorrow evening after work, compared to Type 1, 2, & 3 Delf boys for height/size. =3 ...which still won't help with the NS, though, PsychoticElflet5, sorry.
Yus! *Throws arms in the air* Haha, don't worry about it, acanthiel, the proportion thing will help a lot. I think if the resin match isn't too bad I won't be too bothered by it (With clothes on you could hardly tell, right?), but proportion is important.
Okay, the FDoll body arrived today, so I has pictures. L to R: Vamp Shiwoo on Type 1, Luts NNR 07 on Type 3, FeePle NNR 08 on FDoll, Luts Juri 06 on Type 2 Type 3 (BV Breakaway body) vs Fdoll FDoll vs Type 2 (Chiwoo Elf body...sorry he's standing kinda wonky, that body really needs to be restrung XD;;; ) Front view Side view Closeup. X3 My opinion: The FDoll body is definitely slightly shorter than my Type 3, and quite noticeably shorter than Type 2. While the measurements seem to be pretty close to Type 3, it looks skinnier, most likely due to the arms and legs being thinner/more scrawny. I bought the 'White' skin, and as I suspected it is a reasonable match to most of my older heads so should match the head I purchased it for nicely...it's much darker than the Nanuri 08, though. I really like the proportions, myself, so I think I'm going to pick up one of these in the new 'Pure White' skin as soon as Mint on Card restocks them. It will probably be whiter than the head, but I think that might bother me less as this combo looks a bit too...mime like. XDDD HTH!!! ETA: It looks a bit like the FDoll body is multiple colours in some of the pics, but it doesn't look like that in person--that was my OttLite + my camera's auto setting + photo editing software doing odd things. ^^;
The Angel-of-Dream body I ordered arrived last week and I'm really happy with the results. Here's Mr. Takara, finally complete: He won't usually go around bare-chested, but for the purposes of this study, I took a few pics:
my body arrived and i am in the process of getting pics and all that jazz downloaded. i will upload those when i finish...now mind you the body is in mid-modding mode...i purchased it this way, and will finish up the mods to make it blend in and seem more blended in and natural.
Well i promised pics...so without further adu here we go! The boy on the left is my Nanu08 Caleb, on the right, Ringo who is on a type 2 (I believe) its a Delf Harang special body. Caleb is on what was sold to me as a Delf girl type 2 (without the mechanisim, and the neck needs sanding and work as well. his head was a pain to put on. i had to use a luts doughnut and a nut, the metal kind to get his s hook to stay in his head.) body. Now this is a rescue mod...so this is how he came to me, and will be undergoing lots of sanding and possiably rebuilding depending on how it goes...but your not here for that. XD onto the pics: for whatever reason if your interested in the back and yes the delf boy hands look good on a delf girl body: 08 on the left on girl body, ringo on the right..with boy body. the 08's hands are the second pair from Ringo's harang body. how convient that i kept them this long. so i think this is one of the best looks for the head...it just obviously is going to require alot of work. If anyone wants more pics, ask me and i'll be glad to do so...as my boys will be shirtless for awhile, while i decide what steps to take with calebs body.
Kittywolf13 -- Thanks for those pics! =D Hmmm, you know, I think I really like the head on that body better than the FDoll body...it's closer to the proprtions I was looking for...more young teen/boyish compared to my other dolls. X3 I think I will be picking up a Delf girl body to mod for him....
yay! caleb has a body! good luck with the modding kittywolf! like psychoticelflet said, both the fdoll and angel of dream bodies are a good size match too! congrats to everyone finding bodies!
Yeah i do too! he looks perfect on this body in my opnion...and its funny i thought he would look super curvy and girly, but he doesnt. It's odd. But it DOES make Ringo look even more manly. XD Yes either I or Para-chan214 will be doing the modding...im kind of a newb at it...i've managed to reshape a face before...but re-sculpting is another story entirely. O.O;
*nods* The proportions, I think, are best on the girl body. I just don't like how the male hands look on the girl body, and I really don't want to have to go through the modding process. ^^ I may end up with an Fdoll body, though. I just don't like how the neck looks rather thick in comparison to the Nanuri head, but with a wig he doesn't look too bad. I need a more manly form anyway, so I guess I might go with Fdoll! ^^ Soon as I save up the money and can bear to part with it, of course.
Yep... The neck and body size of the female bod definitely suits the head best. If I'd had any reservations left about mine being a girly-girl, Kitty's pictures more or less sealed it. Now, I just have to find Miss Elise her bod...
I'm with you there, Brightfires. And if I wasn't going to make mine a girl, I'd probably go with the younger, feminine boy with the modded girl body, too. But I don't have room in my doll family for that right now, I need a real girl.
Resinsoul just put out their 70 cm boy body. I'm doubting the fit, but he LOOKS super-slender, so I'm wondering if that body would work for the Nanuri head. I still like the Fdoll best so far, though. ^^ How goes the modding, fellow owners?
Well after a few days of modding and sanding, i sent the body to Para-chan214 to add the finishing mods and such so that it looks complete. Im not very good on the actual sculpting side of things, so i dont normally do the whole miliput thing. :P
Hello all! I just got a Delf Lu-Wen, and decided to put on the Feeple Nanuri 2008 head on it. The body is Luts NS and the head is Feeple NS. I have some face/head shots here that show the neck. I'll get some shirtless pictures later if anyone would like to see the Nanuri on a Delf Type 3 body. Details: Color: NS Eyes: 16mm Wig: 8-9 Monique BJ Body: Delf NS Type 3 Boy Body Faceup: Me
Ooooh, he's cute. I like your manly Nanuri. ^_^ He looks like he's smiling. I need to see if I can make my Nanuri look evil and smirking instead... XD It's going to take finagling. Hopefully I can finally do his faceup when school winds down in December.
Here is a picture of him on my Type 3 Delf body, both are normal skin; And here's him with his second faceup: Now on his 4th, but no new pictures of that yet ^_^
just figured id bump this thread since i havent seen any new nanu08's in awhile...and i finally finished mine. I'll post his pics in a few when the pics are done downloading and edited.
