    2. Not particularly impressive, but it's hard to get some of my other dolls to even stand. To have a doll that can stand on one leg is amazing for me XD Difficulty- 2 for the first, 3 for the second.

    3. Well, I managed to get Alice to do a crabwalk with backwards feet... That was a 7. She is not double jointed, and very tightly strung/kicky.
      [​IMG]
      Got Alice to sit on Lilith's feet... That's about a 3.
      [​IMG]
      Lilith stretching~ About a 4. It's quite easy with the bewb joint she has that slides forward and creates a gaping hole in her back.
      [​IMG]
      Bending waaaay over backwards... I give this one a 3. It was really easy, but it looks cool!
      [​IMG]
      Last one, I swear... just for dramatic effect, this one I call the "SMITE ME!" pose. Sorry for blur.

    4. My current minis were starting to make me sad. My boy has solid legs, but his arms are about as limber as a baseball bat. My hybrid girl has wonderfully expressive arms, but her knees are incredibly weak. One day inspiration struck; pose them together!
      He basically just stood there, and she held on for dear life in an assortment of poses. In most of these he has at least one of his knees bent. And for the most part, she is holding herself up completely.
      She's a Bee-A head, first run of DIM Happy body, and Petsha sword hands.
      He's a DOC Too on the short leg body.

      This was really easy the first time, but it's been very difficult when I've tried to recreate it. 2 the first time, 7 every other time I've tried.
      [​IMG]

      Playing chicken. Pretty easy, but I seem to recall her falling a lot. 5?
      [​IMG]
      Now with fingers in his nose and mouth..
      [​IMG]

      Whee! This was hard. I had to bend both his knees and make him lean backwards as a counterbalance. 7
      [​IMG]

      This is my favorite, because I think it looks pretty natural, in a silly sort of way.. I'd give it an 8. Her knees kept popping out of joint and making them topple.

    5. DZ/AOD hybrid... might not look hard, but she kept snapping out of place.

      Maybe a 6?

      [​IMG]





      And... a two pound Obitsu carrying a four pound AOD. The resin doll kept sliding off, and the obitsu kept plonking forwards... then getting the bottle to stay in place was more fun. XD

      Maybe an 8.

    6. 3... maybe 4. It was really windy that day and his elastic is crap, so the fact I got him to pose with a bent knee is a miracle.

      And another....

      [​IMG]

      4 to 5 because, again, bad strings (I'm getting him GOOD elastic on Tuesday or Wednesday ^^) PS: He's leaning forward. You can't tell with this photo, but he is ^^

    7. I got my boy to stand on top of a stuffed dragon. Then I got him and his friend to both stand on it. I'd say the difficulty was about 8. It took some time to get them balanced on the dragon.

    9. My DIM Flowne, Lucy does a pretty impressive stand to be her. She is very tight and kicky, so standing on her own is hard. But crossing her feet and balancing on the edge of the table she wants. :sweat Not easy with her stringing, so hardship is on 7..

    16. Soom Spinel and AoD Juli. :D Excuse my messy desk. >_< Roslin is sueded, but she still likes to kick and makes posing kind of difficult. Xan stands and poses pretty well.

      [​IMG]
      This was a little difficult because he kept wanting to tip to one side.

      [​IMG]
      Roslin is standing on his stomach with one foot on his leg. Her hands are holding onto his feet. I had to move the foot so that it wasn't propped up against the monitor screen. So this was a little difficult.

      [​IMG]
      Here she is standing on his stomach trying to hide her undies from view. XD

      [​IMG]
      I tried to put her on his shoulders, but he didn't like the abuse I was giving him, and he topped backwards hitting his head on the (thankfully not very hard) printer tray. Poor guy. :(

      This one took me about 30 seconds to stand him, would be 4 I think. And he waited until I set up my camera and took all the pics I needed :)

Some are poses from the fairyland site, to see if she can really do that ^^ she wasnt restringed or anything, her legs are a little kicky somwtimes, but she does pose really well considering that there were taken on a surface she could easely slip on.

    33. Zyon, hanging from a tree branch... This was probably a 2, because it was a thin branch, with nothing strong enough around it to help hold him, but I found his balance point rather quickly...

      [​IMG]

      [​IMG]

      [​IMG]
      3 SD's and a tiny.... (2 DOTs, a Feeple Anu, and a Cheshire) The ONLY thing holding Zyon in the tree was Adrien's arm. This was probably a 7, because they didn't want to balance at the same time... as soon as one was steady, another would fall.

      [​IMG]

      Simian was hanging from an itty bitty hook shaped twig, it was VERY difficult to get his arms to stay were they were to hold him up, and he only held it for 2 pics. So I'd say it was a 10.

      [​IMG]

      This last one may not look too impressive, but getting Zyon (DOT Sha) to stand on a flat surface is VERRY difficult, because he isn't sueded, and his stringing is so loose that if you pick him up, his hips fall out of joint and dangle there, and the two boys were standing with one foot touching, on the hood of my camaro.... a slanted surface. (One of the dolls ended up toppling over after a few pics, and ended up getting broken in the process.) I'd call it a 6.

      those poses were really tricky because it is not only a chair, but a rocking chair ^^
      so i had to balance both, her and the chair >__<

    47. Lilya and anything involving one foot is just so easy it's not a challenge anymore, so I did this (a while ago):

    49. Type: Resin Soul Long
      It was late at night, I was bored so I started posing him, orignaly he was holding onto the plant just standing then when I went to pick him up his legs crossed so I tried to set him down and bam he stood! I was shocked because all I have done to him is tighten his strings, no sueding or wiring at all! Excuse the lack of hair, his wig came in the next day XD

    50. Is that a painting of a Sephirot Pony?:o
      Awesome poses in thise thread, I will have to try some of them with my Mei sometime :) Though most will probably fail since she isn't wired or sueded or anything yet:sweat

      Edit: So I played around with Mei and tried some poses, and *GASP* She stood on one leg!!

    53. Sorry for the nudie doll, but clothes/wig get in the way when doing balancing poses. o3o;; At least with new dolls.

      Oliver did a handstand! I'm sure he was helped by the carpet, but still! I was impressed. :)

      The shoes made these poses very easy.

      And Acacia too

      The lack of shoes and her tiny feet made it slightly challenging.

    59. I love Fairyland! My Soom Glati can't compare with my Littlefee Shiwoo.

      This little guy can take the weight of the heavier Glati.

      Standing using the hooves is already a pain so this pose is an accomplishment for my Glati.
