Loongsoul 1/3 doll discussion Part 3

true, but the small bust looks like a high end, go big or go home, boob job

 

Go big indeed.

 

You might be thinking of the XXS bust. the XS looks more like a B-C cup.

 

Lol the small is definitely a go big or go home boobs!

 

I think my XinLan has either the medium or large. They are very big and heavy. Hard to fit clothes plus her posing ability is hampered a bit by the sheer weight of the breasts.

 

You're right. I was looking at the XXS. The XS looks much more natural.

Does anyone know how the 69 cm girls with the small bust stand unsupported? I know large busts are too top heavy and they topple.

 

The small bust to me doesn't seem like it cause any posing issues, she can stand on her own unsupported. Sometimes I think it help with her balance because she seem like a very balance hour glass.

However, there been time when she just bend over on her own when I'm trying to change her so maybe she does have a slight too heavy. But then again it could be her stringing since it take a lot of effort for me to change out her head.

Other than I can't find any clothes for her, I don't mind her size as much as I make it seem lol. I mostly want to change it because of clothing options. I'll try to get a picture soon of her in a Volks Dynamite dress that still 1cm too small on the chest on her for references here.

Some pictures of body side view, front, and how huge in general she is compared to my other SD and MSD. Small size wearing a Volks Dynamite dress with 1cm gap in the back that I cannot close. I think the XS should fit the Volks Dynamite outfit perfectly.

Spoiler: Pictures

 

finally got my doll today

 

My girl stands solid as a rock. For example - sloping, slippery terrain, in heels, and holding a prop:

 

Congratulations. I really like your Eleven boy.

 

@Ifiamondy Hes beautiful and your photography is amazing!
It looks like an insert of a CD album

 

Hello all! I am very, very remiss at posting here. I have been a lurker, and a Loongsoul fangirl! I currently have 3 LS, and I have a Twigling Eloy head that I had put on a Dollshe Mystic body. I knew that I wanted an LS body, but tried this one, against my better judgment. Now, the Dollshe body is getting a proper Kylo head (Anhais Jupiter) and Eloy will finally have his LS body, whoot! Nice to meet you all!

I have LS Thunderbul Kui and his lady, Twiging Ingenue:

@fionvarre , I know you asked a couple of months back, but here are a couple. If you need more, let me know! He is lovely! The wings were sold out, though!

They're absolutely lovely!!

 

Thank you very much! I love how well Loongsoul poses! The only issue I have is how easily the body blushing scratches on the beast versions

 

YouYing is so beautiful. The color palette of her face-up is just wonderful! It's a bit too soon to order a new doll, so I am going to order her outfit.

 

Long shot, but would anyone be able go take a picture of their plain white resin head on the white import resin body? Vice visa or have at least the two resin on top of each other?

I want to buy another Loongsoul body/part but I'm afraid that the import resin may be too different for me to hybrid even with another Loongsoul head that's the old plain white resin.

If you happen to have a Crobidoll normal and Loongsoul normal imported that would be great too!

 

thank you so much

 

more awesome LoongSoul posing. I got one of my big boys to pose on their new (3D printed and fully functional) skateboard

 

@Girrl - Cool pose! Where did you get the skateboard?

 

woahhh they can balance like that.

 

I got the skateboard Craft4dollsShop on etsy

They can! I can get all my big boys to hold squats, and once I get them into those poses they just stay like that. it's pretty great

 

Oh nice!! That's so cool! I'm impressed!

 

Thank you.

 

i tried that on my doll. but it won't balance hahaa

 

it just takes time and patience and lots and lots of adjusting. I've gotten my boys to squat so many times I've practically got it down to a science now, but the skateboard was an extra layer of difficulty

 

Can you get a 69cm girl body to squat on the skateboard?

 

probably. Mari almost always has her heel feet/heel legs on - which are not ideal for skateboarding - so I'd have to dig out her flat feet to try, but I suspect it wouldn't be that difficult

 

Hello Loongsoul lovers, I'm not so new but bc I'm shy I didn't post much, I just decide to gather my courage to make one . Nice to meet you all!
My start in this hobby mainly from doll cosplaying and I'm on my second year in this hobby. My first Loongsoul is Chaos (or Huang Lin) human version - FWS, his name is Tengu.

Say hi to everyone .
Tengu by Blancasia, on Flickr

It was fun making clothes and prop for him .

 

Hello, @Blancasia! And hello, Tengu! Your boy is very cute, I've always was fond of Chaos' smile! Nice to meet both of you! I started being in the hobby from Ls doll as well and I think it's a great choice!

 

LS's jointed hands are spectacular, and I wish more companies had the realistic thumb joint.

 

Thank you @Skolopendrokot. I...um actually read that thread you made about how you get Domimi, sorry I was shy and stayed in the shadow, yours is an amazing story and very touching (sorry if my English comes out weird, it's not my first language . I'm happy that you got your dream doll and even more happy that you got him from the same company as I do. I love Loongsoul even more after I read your story.

I love LS not just bc they have pretty dolls but the quality too, I love how nice they can pose!

P.s. Idk if you're into Hakuouki but I think I see Okita (I know this because I've been following Hirose Daisuke bc he played as Ichigo Hitofumi from Touken Ranbu).

I agree, but I think we should consider Dikadoll hands too, there jointed hands are also as good as LS . But this is a LS only thread so I'm not going to talk much about it here.

 

he is so gorgeous!

 

Thank you a lot for your nice words, @Blancasia ! Yes, my doll is still my little treasure, I love him more with every day. I'm really grateful that LS agreed to make it for me, especially when one girl in my community told me that she is sure that they won't do that because no company does.

And yeah, maybe I'm not a good person to judge (since I have only one doll), but I can say only good things about LS quality. The doll is a great poser, the face-up is stunning, the body blushing lasts for a long time (I was prepared for worse) and the resin quality is gorgeous. You just look at their dolls and you see how much love and effort they put into making it. But I have to say that they aren't too good at making wigs - I ordered one and its quality was very average.

And please don't be sorry for your language. English isn't my native one, too.

 

I have 7 big LS dolls and 1 Yo-SD, and yes, they all pose beautifully and the resin is gorgeous - no marbling, pitting or seams on any of them - and their environmental resin holds its color phenomenally well. My Yo-SD has full body blushing (she's the cute little white tiger they released way back) and while there's some rubbing inside the joints, it hasn't chipped anywhere that I can tell and I've had her for 6 years or so (eek, so long!)

 

I agree about their environmental resin. My doll didn't come back to his box since August - he sits on my desk all the time. A few times his legs were in direct sunlight - I always reacted and covered him when I saw it, but sometimes wasn't able to, because I wasn't home. I keep his tail in the box (so there is no light and oxygen) and lately compared the resin color - it's the same, any changes, any flaws. The body blushing chipped a bit from the hands, feet, and elbows, but the rest of it is in perfect shape. Really, when I was a newbie, I've heard things like 'You will have to keep your doll in a box or in a cabinet with UV glass because environmental resin ages very badly' and 'Don't buy body blushing because you will lose it quickly.' Nope. My boy is all right, thank you for your concern.

 

Ooh I haven't order wig from LS so idk about that .

@Girrl @Skolopendrokot Oh yeah I absolutely love LS environmental resin bc I live in the tropical zone so it's usually super hot. I've heard cases of my friends doll being yellowed pretty quick (they got Dollzone dolls) but mine only yellow about 3~5%, I got my Tengu last July. I rarely keep my room too hot, I always wrap him in a towel and put him in the carry bag when we travel. About face up (I have no experience on body blushing bc I choose not to), mine haven't fade or chip, I do travel with Tengu a lot bc of work.

 

Oh wow!! I also heard those stories. But good to hear that apparently it isn't that bad.

 

@Qianna , no it's not! I'd definitely recommend their environmental resin.

@Blancasia , but your Tengu is made from white resin, right? I think that you just aren't able to avoid yellowing then and it doesn't matter what brand is your doll. My boy will mellow one day too, but for now, he's in a perfect pink color.

To be honest, I'm a bit afraid of yellowing of the Dollzone dolls. I just ordered one in white resin which was in-stock for a quite long time (about 1,5 years) and I hope it won't come to me yellowed.

 

@Skolopendrokot yes he is. Environmental white resin (or french white resin). I do bring him outside with me a lot since he's a model for me at work. Compare to Dollzone, LS has better resin, that's what I have to say, since both me and my friend do bring our dolls out to take picture or do model. I think it's okay if you live in cool/cold areas, dolls will yellow slower than hot areas. Since I'm in tropical area I have to super careful on doll care.

Also I don't think dolls would yellow in a black box, they only do if they got contact to oxygen at least. I have seen an in-stock Dollzone 70cm from CCdollhouse (taobao) shipped to my friend, the doll is year 2015, the resin is still new. You don't have to worry much.

@Qianna If you live in hot areas, I do recommend environmental resin too!

 

Hey there! Anyone know if the bust for the old girl body and the new girl body are interchangeable? I love love love the new body for the most part but the boobs are a little small.

 

@Blancasia Oh my, Tengu is absolutely lovely! You did such a wonderful job with him! (I also am waiting for a Loongsoul Chaos). I look forward to him coming home~

Also I take it he is supposed to be Ootengu from Onmyoji? he looks exactly like him and I think the costume is extremely well done! (He was also my favorite the time that I played x3)

Also it's good to hear the french resin (environmental resin) isn't going to be a problem. I actually bought a Min Yan from someone secondhand (still really new though), and he will be in that resin type. I was initially worried since I have no experience with that resin type, but hearing you speak good of it has me feeling relieved.

 

@TatsuKitty Which body is it? But I think LS will let you choose the bust for female body, the L bust always very big to me (I have seen 58cm, L bust irl). Only 69cm girls have XL bust which is super super large. About the bust part be able to change between old and new body or not, I think you can do a bit research at the measure by looking at the official site or you can ask the official LS about this.

@Aria Oh thank you! I'm so happy that someone know where he's from, yay! He is Ootengu, Tengu for short I also making a Hiromasa but not yet finished . I actually made Ootengu and Higanbana outfit (Higanbana bjd belong to a friend of mine), I did my best with the costume and prop, they're hard but also fun to do! I have a friend to take picture of him and Higanbana, since I don't have a good camera but my phone haha.

Also I have a habit to collect photos of every Chaos sculpt I found from different owners, if your come home, please let me know, I love that sculpt too much !! I'd like to see more of your Min Yan, I love that sculpt too!
P.s. I also love Little HuangLin but haven't actually order him yet but soon in the future, also yay I'm waiting for Huihui too (teen and grown) .

 

@Blancasia I am in such awe by your skill! Such level of skill and both of them look lovely, and I would love to see Hiromasa when you finish with him~ Also it must feel extremely rewarding when you complete a cosplay like that~ No matter the challenge, the journey and eventually the end result would definitely feel worth it~

I am still quite new to the hobby and opted to learn to sew for my dolls, which I am still in progress of learning! I've only recently managed to get some of my dolls in~ :3 I look forward to maybe one day being able to do some of the amazing things you do now~

I would be happy to show you my Chaos and Min Yan once I have everything together for them~ I know how you feel, I absolutely fell in love with the Chaos sculpt. It's why I also got little Huang Lin too : They both should be arriving within the next couple months I hope~ Yea I saw Hui and felt like I had to have him~ I probably won't see him anytime soon though since I ordered on a very long layaway, probably the only way I could have ordered so many of the dolls I have ordered thus far~ I'm toning it down though. XD No more dolls for the year, I have one more I'll buy later in the year, but he's been pre-announced and therefore I can plan ahead for him. :3 Getting Teenager Hui would be cool too~ :O Maybe down the line since I think he's permanent. x3

 

@Aria Yes, I feel great when I finished those. It's more rewarding because I'm making clothes from characters I like .

Idk if I can be call amazing bc I'm new too. I start from Feb 2018 (when I got my first BJD), so I'm only on my 2nd year. I learn how to sew since middle school so it's quite handy. I think if you have passion, nothing can stop you! I'm rooting for you!

I hope you will get your dolls from LS soon! Boy I feel excited with you . LS have the best faces to me so far, I love most of the male sculpts. Hehe I also get that feel from Huihui, I can hear shouting from my inner self that I have to get him, no rush on the wait let's meet again in Ringdoll discussion once we got our doll, I'd love to show you my own Great Mentor concept too since I don't like the official outfit much. Why I'm getting 2 Hui because he will be a special character that can switch body from teen to adult and back.

 

@Blancasia I can understand that. I definitely feel compelled to eventually make some of my own cosplay outfits too someday!

I don't know, your passion must definitely be shining through then! Yeah I got my Crobidoll Lance (he's the one in my avatar right now), back in March this year, and Soom Hyperon around the same time. I'll need to buy some materials and stuff to begin starting to learn to sew. I did do like some home ec sewing stuff back in middle school, but I feel like I've forgotten most of it. However, I am sure I can pick it up and just keep trying until I make it! Thank you, I really look forward to making my own stuff for my dolls. ^^ for now though I've bought them some clothes so they aren't naked while I get the hang of things!

I hope so too! He's definitely one of the ones I've looked forward to the most, I've been waiting since November of last year (around the time I started buying dolls :O He was my first purchase~ ). Yeah I don't think I've seen a male sculpt from Loongsoul yet that I haven't liked. It made choices tough! But sometimes they call out to you and I feel that's how I know. :3

I would love to meet up in the Ringdoll Discussion once he arrives! (though it may not be until February of next year at earliest x3 ) I amusingly did actually like his fullset outfit, and therefore I did order him as a fullset. However, I planned to still make my own themes and outfits for them alongside having their fullset outfits (for the ones I did get as fullset, that is). . I'll most likely want to show him that way once I've done something rather than in the fullset outfit though. :3 I would love to see your take on the Great Mentor concept indeed! That is interesting concept, I'd love to see it! :3 If I don't somehow notice, feel free to give me a ping~

 

@Aria Yes tough choices from LS haha, but no one stop you to have the heads to make different expression for your doll right? That's what I do, I'm getting 1 doll many heads for a character as well xD.

I hope things goes smoothly for you as it goes for me since we both learn to sew since middle school .

We can continue our conversation on PM. I will send you 1 later.

 

I love that picture

 

@Blancasia excuse me while I fangirl over your Ootengu!!!

By the way, Loongsoul has a new SD boy, God of Spring Jumang. He is gorgeous! A bit more androgynous compared to other Loongsoul boys, and I just might get him as a fullset because of that.

 

I think I haven't seen him. Could you give me a link to any his photos? I can't find them anywhere.

 

@Skolopendrokot I have a link to the promo video. Here you go: 什么都没找到

Edit: I don't know why the link text now says "nothing found" in Chinese, but it does work for me.

 

I see! He's beautiful! Can't wait to see his photos!

 

Ooooo he looks amazing! But I think the sculpt is similar to Eleven but with smaller eyes. Still I would want to get that Hanfu! (Yeah I'm crazy for Hanfu!!)

Also thank you @fionvarre . You made my day shine brighter, I think Tengu is pleased by your compliment as well! (Also I'm happy to know another Onmyoji fan!!! )

 

Onmyoji is such a cool game, though I had to uninstall it because I didn't have time to play both Onmyoji and Touken Ranbu (I also have a Dolk Mikazuki on layaway).

Ootengu's sculpt is Huanglin right? I love him, but he's no longer available through Loongsoul sadly. And I haven't seen him in the secondhand market either.

Looking forward to your Hiromasa-sama btw!

 

Touken Ranbu!!! I totally want to see your Mikazuki when you get him. Please post a box opening.

I don't have a Loongsoul yet but I'm seriously considering to buy a boy coming October. I'm saving up now. I already have two Ringdoll boys and a Granado boy. Does any of you have those too? How do they compare to Loongsoul dolls?

 

@fionvarre I see, Onmyoji is quite heavy and the daily task is a lot, I don't play too much Onmyoji tbh but I do read about the character stories, sad to say I deleted Onmyoji recently too but still playing Touken Ranbu till this day (I'm a March 2015 player). And gosh nice to know someone waiting for Mikazuki too, I'm not alone anymore yay ! Let's wait together! I ordered him on the first period so as the page stated I would get him around October. So excited !! And ofc course I will do my best on Hiromasa as well, but he's a Soom so I will post in the Soom Discussion or maybe make a new post in the Galleries section.

As you suspect, my Tengu is from LS Huanglin Human version. About secondhand, if you have no luck on the English market, you can try the Chinese market, I have seen several of him out there. If you need more help and info, send my a PM anytime. I know lots about Asian market bc well I'm Asian .

@Qianna I'm also waiting for my Mikazuki as well, I will sure to make post when he comes home .

I don't have any Ringdoll yet but a friend I know does so if you want to do skin quality comparison I think I can help but not right now since she's lives quite far from my place. We both got our doll from July 2018, mine is LS Environmental (french) white skin (FWS) and her as Ringdoll Normal skin (NS), to compare, the Ringdoll NS only a bit pinker than LS FWS and both haven't been yellow much since both are keep safe from sunlight if going outside. We're from tropical zone, always sunny and hot, but I do think LS is better since I take Tengu to travel with me a lot more than my friend does. I have made comparison just now with his head cap, his arm and his extra hand (the hands always in black box), it's nearly a year since I got him. The light in my room and my phone are not ideal for photo, I'm sorry.

Sadly I don't have and idk anyone who have a Granado to help .

 

@Blancasia based on your reply just now, I suspect you're either from SG or MY? I can understand the tropical climate/humidity issues, since I'm also from Southeast Asia.

I ordered Mikazuki during the second period, so your jiji will arrive before mine.

BTW, I have checked Taobao for Huanglin, but probably not very well since my Chinese sucks for the most part (especially when it's simplified Chinese). But I did still see Huanglin Chaos version in the Chinese version of the Loongsoul site, so maybe he's only sold out for the international market?

 

@fionvarre Oh hey! Happy to know another person from Southeast Asia !! From my recent search Loongsoul on taobao and many of its agent taobao store has stop accepting order of him, where I see him is actually another taobao market call secondhand Taobao - a different market from the main one but have the same buying system (only pay seller once the buyer got their goods and made a review), my Chinese best friend taught me this. So I can assume both Chinese and International have stop selling this sculpt (both Human and Beast).

 

I know that secondhand taobao market! Except it doesn't seem to work well when you're viewing it from a desktop browser. Can't even find a searchbox anywhere, so I just browse whatever comes up on the page.

As for Huanglin, here's what I found on the Chinese site: 龙魂人形社 上古传说 混沌人版·临荒 叔 古风BJD娃娃_上古传说_龙魂系列_龙魂人形社官网_BJD娃娃网站. Not sure if I can still actually add the item to my cart though.

And the product page for Jumang is already up on the Chinese version of the Loongsoul site: 龙魂人形社 上仙系列 68叔 春神·句芒 BJD娃娃_上仙系列_龙魂系列_龙魂人形社官网_BJD娃娃网站.

I think overall his face and eye shape is much rounder/softer and wider than Minyan and Eleven's faces, which is why he feels a bit more androgynous vs. the other two.

Tagging @Skolopendrokot too since you wanted to see the production photos.

 

@fionvarre I don't think it's possible to buy Huanglin on that site, it's still LS official site but since they have taobao as their Chinese site, they tend to forget to update that one. My friend tried to order limited Morgan once using the Chinese side of that site but not success as she got email stated that Morgen is limited and not available anymore , but in the end there was a huge order on limited edition dolls last October, she's able to order Morgen through taobao.

I think since Qing Zhuang released, some of LS doll eyes got smaller, not the whole face got rounder or wider, I have inspected this by looking at heads myself. Overall small eyes is not my liking but I still think they're gorgeous with their full set, Wolf almost has his place in my wish list xD. The perfect face for me is still Helian Rongying (and the Hanfu ).

 

I love this GouMang so much.... I just cant buy more right now. And Hanfu are absolutely beautiful! I want to get some Hanfu for my dolls for fun because of how beautiful it looks.
