    1. Those are great names Steamwitch!
      !
       
    2. Thanks @chrstphrl, I'm working on their story now.

      Edit: I was able to get a base coat of sealant on his face. I hope to start on him tomorrow.

    3. I found Lyric's look:dance:cool:.
      I am happy with this, he looks like a poet or an artist, though he is far from it. I'm still working on True and Lyric's story but I'm loving getting Lyric's look down.

      I changed the the Thread title, Granado 31.5cm Lucifer Discussion

    7. I don't think I ever shared this here--but here's a pic of my Lucifer in a borrowed wig & outfit next to my Limhwa ToYou! The outfit was sized to fit Fashion Royalty men, and it fits pretty ok--the waist is too big, but the length is good. The shirt fits well. I couldn't fit him into any of the 1/6 man shoes I have on hand... His heels get in the way. :/ Shoes that lace up or are cloth and not plastic might work.

      [​IMG]

      And a bonus of just his unpainted face... those eyes are also borrowed and WAY too big. I haven't really had the chance to do much with the poor boy yet. Possibly interesting side note, the wig was one I made for a Parabox Miroku (a vinyl head designed to go on Obitsu 27cm slim male bodies). It fits pretty decently, though it's prone to falling off.

    8. @Idoru I love that shirt! He looks good with red hair.
       
    9. Thanks! It's a really nice shirt--I got it from this Taobao shop. (I hope that link works...) Their stuff is really nice quality! I have a couple of dresses from there too for my girls. I highly recommend them!
       
    10. Thanks, I'll look!

    11. Oh, man, those tiny tools are adorable. Now he can do all the chores. :XD:

      I am slowly but surely finalizing my own dude - SOME DAY I will have both the time and the energy to finish his half-made wig, and then I just have to put him all together. (I moved the snap fastener on his jeans without taking them off! Little headless half-naked dude dangling butt-upright while I stitch away...)
       
    12. I have one in tan skin. He is still waiting for his make-up. I like the tan skin since that i can make a setting form him, local people i the jungle or some other southern islands .This is just my imagination lol.

    13. Lyric, True and Ulric making a mess with the new tools. They are trying to convince me into making them a tiny Pub. I didn't find Lyric's glasses so I bought him some new ones. The tools were a impulse buy since I was ordering anyway, but I am so glad I did. They look happy with them.

    14. I signed up for the 31.5cm Napoleon crowdfunding. It was him or an expensive action figure. I love my little guys. I need to take more photos of them.

    15. Cute cute! Can't wait to see him. :)
       
    16. Oh, no! I love the new Napoleon! And in the 31cm size too. Gee, now I’m torn. Guess I’ll have to look into this crowd funding thingy. Not that I need anymore anything. He so handsome...
       
    17. I know, right. :blush I need another flexible, gorgeous, little guy. :wiggle
       
    18. @SteamWitch I totally agree! I just wish I had a bigger dolly fund. I hate having to choose. Time limiteds are awful!
       
    19. Indeed they are! I just hope he makes his 5 to get a chance at him. Since this little size was a big hit with Lucifer, I'm hoping this one will also. I didn't have any dolly plans for 2019 and only waiting on one incoming so I had the room in my budget for 'something' preferably not a bjd but he happened to look just right. If he'd not been so pretty (and small) I would have passed.

      If he does get made I suppose I need to change to the title of this thread without Lucifer's descriptor. :whee::XD::blush
       
    20. I'm planning on joining as well! I was sad I missed the Lucifer pre-order, and then Lucifer was released again but not as a 31.5cm option. But is layaway possible after joining the pre-order?
       
    21. Yes, I had layaway on my Lucifer order.
       
    22. Do I have to wait until it's supported by 5 people to use layaway, or can I choose layaway when the remaining payment is requested? I know the value has to be at least $300 for layaway, so I have to purchase either a different skin tone (not necessarily a problem, I like the sunshine resin) or eyes/wig?
       
    23. When the size reaches its goal you then have the option to do layaway that is also when you choose the skin tone.
      They didn't offer eyes or wigs at first though they do now have the right size small iris eyes available. They still don't offer wigs.

    24. OH MY RA. I've been eyeing this size since Lucifer, but painting on such a small face had scared the wits out of me, so I backed out with a reluctance that stills burns me to this day. But since Napoleon actually comes with a face-up option despite his small size, I'm finally gonna get my wee tiny man. :evilplot:

      Though, many apologies for the daft question, I know it's been asked before but I can't find where it was stated; what size wig did Lucifer typically take? Would it be similar to, say, the Fairyland Pukipuki size?
       
    25. The first post of this discussion has all the vigor measurements head size is 9.7cm so if he is the same he wears a 3.5-4" wig. Most of the pukipuki size wefted wigs look like helmet head hair *_* but you can find some nice ones around.
       
    26. I recommend Monique company size 4. My guy curently has a size 4 from Fatio.
       
    27. I just joined the crowdfunding for Napoleon! I was gonna give myself a day or two to think about it, but I couldn't resist, I just love his face, and a tiny one sounds perfect to me lol

    28. Thanks a bunch SteamWitch, I KNEW I was missing the information entirely when I was desperately searching through this thread, OTL. Time for me to wake up! *_*

      I've sort of figured that I'd probably have to either trim an existing long wig to achieve the look I'm going for, or I'd have to make a wig myself, but I'll probably take a look see at Monique wigs, thanks a bunch too, Leo Pheonix! :kitty1

    29. WooHoo!
      Tiny Napoleon has made his goal all ready! I can't wait to get my new tiny man.

      In celebration I am changing the name of this thread.
      Soooo just asking, should I add Napoleon's name or make it a generic Granado 31.5 Discussion or Granado Tiny Doll Discussion?

    30. Hi! I'm Mary Kathryn and I just got my notice that the 31.5 Napoleon is a go. I paid and boy I am excited!!! But now we wait.:abambi:
       
    31. Congrats! Yes we wait, but hopefully not as long as the first batch when they had to make the entire doll.
       
    32. I would just change it to Granado Tiny Doll Discussion. :)
       
    33. Granado Tiny Doll Discussion it is.

      I added a link to Napoleon's sales page to the first post.

    34. True didn't like the way I styled his hair so he made a change.

      I'm loving this size though I will never switch out my wonderful big guys.

    35. Someone in the mini section asked about the thigh joint movement forward so I took these photos. I am going to add this and the contortion photo to the first post.

    36. Does anyone know where to get eyes that fit lucifer? I bought sone, but they’re really gappy. Ideally I’d like cheaper ones... ☹️
       
    37. @Spuggey: mine is wearing 6mm eyes from Dreaming Tree Studio, which were priced really reasonably. They don't seem to gap at all - or, if they do, the gap is super tiny and I can't see it, which is almost as good!
       
    38. Had a look... they have a nice selection & good prices! Many thanks!:abow:
       
    39. I just got the eyes I ordered from Dreaming Tree! Idk how well they'll fit because Napoleon won't be here for a long while I'm sure, but I'll be ready when he gets here and the eyes are super cute, so I'm happy with them.

    40. I did it! I was able to order a Napoleon! So happy I get to join you all!

      Now to go back and re read this thread again as this time I need to pay attention to what fits, lol.
       
    41. Yay!!! Congratulations!
       
    42. Lyric has green eyes from Tales of the Shrike, they fit perfectly. True's eyes are from Dreaming Tree and are great too.

    43. My Baishan has eyes from Dreaming Tree too. They're 6mm and fit perfectly.
       
    44. Thank you for the eye sizes! I have some Dreaming Tree eyes in 4 and 6mm. I’ll have a few to choose from, but usually the doll demands their own new pair. I’m planning on making a yarn wig. I really enjoy making that type of wig. Especially for tiny heads.
       
    45. I tried another difficult pose to get a doll to do. Looking up for one thing but looking up and back too. This was a pretty cool discovery.

    46. Now that the ordering period is over, I’m getting excited to get my guy!
      Plus all these fantastic pictures by @SteamWitch are helping too!

      I’m so thankful I was able to get the funds together. :thumbup

    47. I have to support the recommendation for Dreamingtree Studio eyes as well! I bought a couple of pairs for Dante, and I absolutely love them! They're a great fit. I was worried they'd look too dark (I have had bad luck with small eyes and catching light) but I was wrong! The pair he ended up keeping are in Driftwood. I also got a pair in Russet, but as these are all perfect for Dante I'm not sure who I'll use them for. Napoleon perhaps?

    50. Me too! It must be getting close. I heard a regular sized Napoleon head has been mailed. I’d almost forgot about mine. Almost, lol.
       
    51. Oh, boy, now Granado is crowdfunding for a female doll, and one of the options for 'Jane' is 29cm! She looks really cute, and the body looks like it's got some quality jointing - I'm giving this one some thought.
       
    52. I'm considering her, too. There's pictures of a prototype body, but only CG images of the head sculpt.
