Charm doll Discussion Thread! Newly minted Doll company released 3 males and a newer female.

I definitely like the bodies. The female one really reminds me of Loongsoul's 69cm body, the main difference being the bust joint (and the bust size hahaha). I might snag one in the future for any floating heads I have.
From what I've been hearing, Charmdoll and Loongsoul are sister companies, so the stylistic similarities aren't surprising. Anna looks a lot like LS Emily, IMO, just a bit older/more mature. The lines of the 66cm body actually remind me a bit more of the LS 63cm body, but the legs are a lot longer. Since they are related companies, I expect great things from Charmdoll. I would love it if Charmdoll sold their heads separately. I'd love to have an Anna head on the 63cm LS girl body. JianLi is also on the top of my wishlist.
I am in love with Charm Doll's male body. It' so perfect for several floating heads that I have but for the size. 71cm is taller then what I am looking for, so I sent Charm Doll a message with the question if they would be willing to release a 65cm tall boy with the same body sculpt. I'm crossing my fingers that they will say yes. Praying to the dollie-gods Kymera: jeeryama (ebay seller) would probably be able to fill your request to sell you a Anna head. Just ask.
YES.! I was randomly looking at MoC and saw Charmdoll and thought that Anna reminded me of Loongsoul. I reaaaaally love her~ *o* But i'm more in love with Cahill.. I am determined to get him one day.! And I also really like the aesthetic of the 70cm bodies~ :3
Charmdoll is having a summer event, with a heads only sale. It doesn't look like that there are new sculpts being released, Maybe next year? CD is still relatively new, being less then a year old. Still, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for that 66-67cm male body, hopefully with the same aesthetic of the 70cm.
Can someone please tell me ( or show ) the different between Charm doll's skintones? I dont know what skintone looks like normal skin of other companies. I have decided buy Anna, I really love her healthy body. What is skintone in this official picture? And I can't access their official website charmdoll.com T___T dont know why
I love Anna...and their bodies are all so gorgious!!! I've been looking for a nice 71cm boy body for a floating head of mine and I may have just found it! ^_^ And I was also drooling over LengJue...what a beautiful boy! *sigh* Why am I so poor right now? Can't wait to see what else they'll have to offer!
Are there any owner pictures yet??? I'm planning on ordering a Anna head through Jeeryama. She will be my first ever bjd (part) . She will just have to wait for a body.
Hopefully there will be some soon. The company faceups in this case don't grab me as much as their blank sculpts do, so I'd certainly love to see them with some different faceups
Soooooo, is there a waiting room thread for this company, or did I miss it? I can't seem to find one...
Let’s make this three posts in a row, yaaaay! Unintentionally, I promise… this just seems to be a quiet thread :V My Anna came and I did my first face up ever! I have about one picture that I’m willing to share because I’m aware that her eyebrows need help. Yes, I do plan to wipe it and give it a second try. Have mercy on me… but I thought that the lack of owner pictures needed to be remedied, so here we go. The Charm Doll pink skin is very, very light pink compared to any of the other pink skinned dolls I have. She’s lighter and pinker than the Doll Chateau, DF-H, and Impldoll pink skins I own. More relevantly, the Mirodoll normal skin body I had for her looks super super yellow next to her head. So not only was this my first faceup experience, it was also my first whole head blushing experience. Overall, she suits the character I wanted her for, so I'm happy ^^ I can post resin comparison pictures with my other dolls if anyone asks. I left her headcap unblushed, so that's still a super light pink. Cheers
I was just looking at this companies doll's last night. I really like Anna as her face is so stunning! I'm also liking the face up you gave her, elvenlogic especially the dark lips. It must be the lighting or something but she looks so white in the company pictures though Mint on Card says she's yellow skin.
Really, that's the yellow skin? Yeah, she does look really white in those pictures... it didn't occur to me to ask, honestly, but I didn't think that was their yellow skin. Their white must be paper white
Hello!!!!! Just thought I would drop in and say 'hi' to everyone. I'm looking at Hugh, but if I bring him home, it will be a little while. I make myself think about it and wait awhile! I think he's so handsome! I especially like his chin. I know that sounds funny, but I do!
mollym, that doesn't sound funny to me. I personally have a specific thing for noses, and yes, Hugh is very handsome with his wonderfully masculine chin Now, if only I had more money...
Quiet thread indeed... Has anyone seen Trista? I'm a little in love with her face and that loooong beautiful neck. She reminds me of Claire from Outlander. I'm a little iffy on the body, though I think it may just be the company pictures...
Praesagium, I fell in love with Trista at first sight, even though my polyurethane team it's private men's club. Wasn't impressed by the body, but was struck down by this beautiful face
@No_comment, yours is the opposite of mine. My club seems to be a mix of female and genderqueer. I need some (obvious) boys to balance it out I couldn't find any of my ideal resin matches (Spiritdoll, Iplehouse) though, or any option to buy just a head. Maybe they'll repeat last year's Christmas event and I can compare to my current Spirits and Iple.
Praesagium, I'm in the hobby for a little over a year now and still consider myself a newbie, however, one thing I've learned from my first full year is that miracles and coincidences do happen) So I believe you'll find your ideal resin matches ) Whether Trista destined to become obvious boy?)))
Necro'ing this thread -- does anyone know how to contact Charmdoll? I thought I left a message on this page, but there's nothing there and I haven't had a response. I really want a Trista head but need to know how much time I have to buy it.
That 71cm body looks interesting! Not too sure about the look of the elbow and knee joints though. I'd love to see owner pics.
Hi charmdoll owners. I love the looks and height of the Charmdoll woman's body (can't quite decide between Anna and Ding Dang yet) I am just wondering how well they pose ? I have a Loongsoul Ryan who poses like a charm. Do Charmdolls pose as well as LS ?
I never thought it could happen to me... I never wanted to have a bjd-girl in my doll family... It happened two weeks ago. Now I have Trista. Only a head, actually. To me she’s the most beautiful woman in the world))))) Lovely Gwen photo by Arahna&Sphinx Vice
Lilla, Praesagium Thanks)) She is currently staying with makeuper, he graciously shared some of her photos https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/92/17/b5/9217b5b3c47ffe41d4fa43e5011f80da.jpg https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/c6/94/19/c6941975176798c1356906a9b3a8ff3d.jpg photos by Arahna&Sphinx Vice
@No_comment , she has such a lovely face. Thank you for the pictures. Edit: is she pink skin or yellow skin? Is her colour matching any of the resin you have?
She is in normal pink. All my dolls are in normal and white, so I have not a chance to compare with something more or less similar ( When she return home, I'll make however a few photos (CharmDoll vs Resinsoul, for instance) My first impulse was to buy Spiritdoll proud body for her, and I was surprised to discover that there is not pink skintone option
@No_comment , I have no idea if this can help you, but Loong Soul has two 63cm girl bodies with 9cm neck and 13.5cm shoulder and 2 types of normal pink, Telesthesia has a 65cm girl body with a 8.8cm neck and a 12.8cm shoulder and normal pink is listed. Yay! Pictures! Yes, please!
Jeeryama is able to sell me just a Trista head, so I've decided to make the leap and buy one I hope it'll be here before May so I can take it to the PNW Expo and find good body and resin matches.
I'd like to ask Charm Doll's owners how long have you been waiting for your oders? I mean how much time it takes to manufacture the doll after payment? I've just ordered Hugh and I wonder how much time do I have to make up the character.
@Fossa, I paid for a Trista head today through Jeeryama and asked for an estimate of how long it would be. I'll let you know once I get an answer Can't wait to have her!
That's great news! Congrats on the incoming additions! I've been lurking for a bit, and I'll be happy to see the new dolls. I have an eye on Hugh, but it's not going to happen this year unless I win the lotto, lol. I find myself drawn to the smaller companies and that they tend to have original looking hand sculpted dolls.
Lilla, Praesagium, thanks for the tips. I did not know Spiritdoll can do resin matching, it's great news. Now I'm trying to choose between their body and Loongsoul. My girl got wig and custom eyes photo by Ilma maybe I'll buy this one https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/c1/73/cc/c173ccfbf7155a9e5eca9c5849aae892.jpg Faceup (photo by Arahna &Sphinx Vice) IMG_8482 IMG_8475 IMG_8484
@No_comment , your girl is lovely! Whichever body you choose, she's going to be a great addition to your crew.
Does anyone know what CharmDoll's tan looks like? I know they're the sister company of Loongsoul... is it orange-y like Loongsoul's. I'm hoping to buy a LengJue sometime this year, hopefully. (He kind of reminds me of Soom Sabik. LOL.)
I got my Trista head! Annndd ... WOW, is it pink!! The resin doesn't match anyone here, but the head will make a nice male companion to my Migi Fairy Jina. I'm talking to Ringdoll now about their colourmatching service and since they requested a picture, I'll post one here tomorrow. Now I gotta find my eyeputty...
Trista is so beautiful but I've fallen pretty hard for Nastya. Proportion wise, I'd like to put her on a shorter/smaller body. I think she actually might not look to bad with a Loong Soul 58cm body! I guess I'll just have to save up and find out Anyway, this thread needs more love. I hope to see some more owner pics!
I've got owner pics! ... sorta I sent my Charmdoll Trista head to belovedA for a faceup and she recently sent me pics!
Trista is a very pretty sculpt indeed. @Praesagium She looks so cool! I really like the gold tattoo(?) on her. I hope you get a chance to share her once she's home and she can see
@Praesagium WOW, she is stunning!! The artist rendered the details so beautifully and her skin has such a realistic variety of hues. I bet you can't wait to have her home!
A whole year later, I finally took a picture It's not a very good one, but it is an owner picture for an underappreciated sculpt! Trista's even more beautiful now. When I commissioned BelovedA, I asked if she could make it look like their eyes were half-closed instead of small; between Ana's talent and a smaller set of eyes, I think she nailed it! The goatee was entirely an experiment and afterthought though; it looks all right, but I'm definitely going to soak off the glue and try again. Unfortunately, Trista hasn't found a name yet; his companion -- the Migidoll Jina -- is Saoirse, so I'll have to find something obnoxiously Gaelic to match. Maybe Ailell or Fiach... I was going to do a resinmatching service through Ringdoll ... but does anyone happen to have a recent dollzone lying around instead? If I don't have to wait and ship a headcap to and from China, I'd rather not!
Nastya is my new love! I LOVE dolls with half closed eyes, although my first one has large ones (see avatar). Nastya is so mesmeric, so strong and yet delicate. She is combining contrasts so well. I am totally in love with her.
Does anyone here have a Charm Doll Hugh head sculpt (bonus points if it has the default company face-up)? I'm in love with the weird zombie/ghoul look of it but I know that actual results vary from the promo pics...
Eek! "His compagny face up was so ugly that he slept in his box" That does not sound good! Thanks @Lady Mariko !
