Nabarro’s Boys discussion thread

Oct 4, 2011

    1. Thank you! I can't wait for his wig to come and buy him some clothes.
       
    2. Oh no! I'm sorry his body is chipped. At least his head is safe :D
      How bad is the chipping? And which body is it? Can you fix it?
       
    3. He's on a beautiful Dollstown 18yr body. I don't have one and it's a lovely body, but the two chips are right under his chest joint on his back. I'll try to glue it back on, but that's a point of stress. I'll just have to see!

      Anyone know how consistent Dollshe/Dollstown's resin colors are? I see you can order the chest piece alone. Christian is in copper oriental.

    4. @emeraldwings Their resin colors are really consistent! I've also got a Dollstown body and it also had a chipping, but was on his right leg. I've wrote the store and they sold me a replacement and it is just the same color as the body! (body is 1 year old already) My body was oriental skin, but I believe all resin color are consistent!

      I'm here to share my beautiful Yakumo with you ^^ he arrived a few days ago and I'm so happy to find this doll for sale after so many years! I've had a WTB thread for a long period of time before someone sold him to me! I just never thought I was going to be able to buy him and already shelled his character into a MDR Fang, now I have no idea what to do with him, but I'm very very lucky to have one and I couldn't be happier with him! I just need to develop a new character! He is on a Spiritdoll Elegance body.

      Here's a picture:

    5. @Alois Trancy Congrats! He looks very stunning :D It will be interesting to see what you do with him.
       
    6. @Prinsessen @Cyador Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked him! ^^ Still no name, but now I don't need to worry anymore, he is already home! I can relax and think about his character slowly!

    9. Ahhh, your Wally is so lovely. :chocoheart

      And hello everyone. ^_____^
      I'm finally able to de-lurk on this thread as I recently was able to purchase a Cyril! I am so, so happy to have him. I've been in love with Nabarro sculpts for so long now, hehe, it seemed like I'd never get the chance to own one though. So I just have to pinch myself. He is blank at the moment, but I have ordered him a lovely body! Ahh! I'm so excited, please excuse me. ^.^"

    10. @Alois Trancy Congratulations on your Yakumo! He's really lovely. I hope you enjoy getting to slowly develop a character for him now that you've finally got him. That's the way I like to do things too. :whee:

      And congratulations to you too @Lady Ravenswood -- Cyril is such a wonderful sculpt. I can't wait to see yours when he comes home!

      I haven't been doing much with my dolls lately, but I did snap a quick picture of Allaster (my Yakumo) in his silly raver look the other day. :XD:

    11. Ah! Thank you. ^___^
      I'm trying to be a little bit patient so I can match the head to the body with the faceup when the body arrives...but on the other hand...I just want to paint him!!! :XD:

      Aw, Allaster is so colorful! Did you make all the little bracelets? Hehe, I love when dolls wear jewelry.
       
    12. I've noticed the same :/ maybe nabarro is working on new dolls? I hope for it! I love seeing the pictures and the faceup works, so I hope she comes back soon!
      I love your wally *__* Is he on Spiritdoll body? How does the resin match works?

      Thank you so much! I loved your Yakumo so much! He is so cute ^^ I think I wanna party with him ahahah xD So sweet!

      I want to introduce you guys to my newest Nabarro doll. He arrived today and I couldn't be happier! I love him so much and I've waited for this doll for over 7 years! He was a hard to find and hard to buy, but was worth every cent!

      Meet Morgan Roosevelt, mostly known as Wendigo:

      [​IMG]

      He is a reincarnation of the Devil himself, but he is living on a human body, tho. That's why he is deteriorating and has the veins showing around the eye! He was painted by the talented russian artist Legend. I have no words to express my happiness!

    13. Eeeeeee! A Wally!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
      Wow, congratulations on getting him!! I'm sure he was hard to find and hard to get, but so, so worth it!!


      Ooh, and yes. I hope the quiet also means a new sculpt is in the works. That would be just lovely. ^__^
       
    14. @Lady Ravenswood Thanks! Yes, I made most everything for him. It's so much fun. :whee: I hope your new body arrives soon, waiting can be very hard!

      @Alois Trancy Big congratulations on Wally! He's definitely a beautiful sculpt, and yours looks great with that interesting face-up.
       
    15. I want to share a picture of my Wally :D
      His body and his outfit has arrived, so I am very happy. Now I think he is ready.

    16. Oh my gosh, he's just gorgeous! I'm in love. And he's not even mine!
       
    17. @Prinsessen He's perfect! Love his outfit! Is it custom made or did you buy it somewhere?
       
    18. he looks stunning!
       
    19. @jenthered
      Thank you for your kind words :D It really made my day.

      @angelie23
      Thank you very much :D Most of his outfit is from Loong Soul with a few added items from other places.

      @grotebur
      Thank you so much :D I am happy you think so.

    24. Grotebur, I like his piercing eyes. They really stand out on your photo.

      In the spirit of saying goodbye to the summer:

      Diahr's new wigs arrived. I ordered three, but two of them look strange on him because they are just on the small side. His head is bigger than I thought :doh The last wig looks very nice, I think, so I am happy :D
       
      • x 9
    27. @Prinsessen
      Gorgeous! He looks very nice indeed. ^___^ <3
      That wig is so intricate. It's really beautiful.
      Hehe, I can understand though, they do have sorta deceptively bigger heads. I have a wig in the mail for my Cyril and I'm hoping it works out. :: fingers crossed ::


      Actually, I finally got my Cyril's head on his body just yesterday!
      Haha, that seems like a silly thing, but there...was a series of events...yes...
      Anyway!
      I'm so happy to have him all in one piece! He still needs a faceup...and like...shoes...and stuff...

    28. @Lady Ravenswood
      Thank you :D It was the details that made me fall in love with this wig to begin with.

      Yes, exactly! I hope your wig is a nice fit and just perfect for your guy.

      Congrats! That is great :D Being able to put a head on a proper body is so wonderful a feeling.

      He looks good already. I'm imagining him as a painter when I see your picture (he reminds me of Van Gogh from the Doctor Who story).
       
    29. @Prinsessen
      You are the second person to tell me that he looks like he is from Doctor Who! My husband keeps saying, "Sarah!" whenever he sees this doll. :lol:

    30. Hi everyone, it's been a long time since I visited this thread, and it's so good to see all your beautiful guys here :)

      Also I want to share pics of my Besmer. He've got his first official photoshoot at last, after all these years of been abandoned on the shelf :) I like this sort of winter-is-coming look.

    31. @trollenok He looks amazing! :D Is it real chainmail in his shirt? Does that scratch the doll or how do you do?
       
    32. @angelie23, thanks! All Nabarro sculpts are quite realistic and alive :)

      @Princessen, actually it's not a complete chainmail, but just a piece of chainmail fabric from butcher's glove. It doesn't have sharp edges, and besides that, his body was covered by the thick layer of paint to match the head. So I believe it's safe enough :)

    33. hi everybody! someone know how fits Cyril on a Mystic Body from Dollshe?
       
    34. I'm curious about Sumner with Mystic body.

      My Sumner doesn't have his body yet xD

      @hiro_c This is Sumner on the Arsene body which has very similar proportions to the Mystic body. Not too bad.
      [​IMG]
      Though I do not like this side view,
      but then I really prefer him on the bigger M28 body:

    36. Cyador, thank you so much!! It's very helpful to me.
      I think so, too. 18M looks a little small for Sumner.
      I'm grateful you:XD:
       
    37. You are welcome :) Now the big question: which bodies are you thinking about now?
       
    38. Here's Sumner on the Dollits DAD body, in case anyone wanted to see that:

    39. americanseamstress, thank you for share! He looks very good on that body. Beautiful. I like slim body:XD:

      Cyador, I like DT18yrs. But I heard that it's hard to stand.
      I wait for an ideal body, leisurely. It's a tall and not muscular:XD:

    40. @hiro_c

      You might ask someone about the Dollstown 18 with the new knees. I nodded the knees of mine with locks to fix the problem, but I don’t have similar problems with my Dollstown 17

      Edit: Here's my Sumner on a Dollstown 18

    42. I expect it will be too small, but does anybody know how the Har head would look on a Feeple65 boy body?
      Thanks in advance! <3
       
    43. @hiro_c I am so late, but i just wanted to add that I have my Har on a Dollstown 18 yr body. The body is heavy, but i think it stands nicely. I don't have problems with it. I like it so much I plan to get more.
      I have heard that Dollstown is upgrading the body and should release a revised version later in the year.

      @AlchemicCandy I am sorry, but I am not familiar with that body. I think the body might work. If it is a similar size as Soom Super Gem (around 65cm) then it might work. At least I have seen Har on the Soom body and it looked fine.

    45. My Wally is on a DT18 and the issue is, I think, the upper body being too heavy for the knees. I hotglued his joints but it doesn´t do... I am going to try some wireing. That´s just a shame because this body is so beautiful <3
      He poses well but he just doesn´t want to stand more than a couple of minutes.

    46. Someone in the workshop, long while back, did a torso mod that ultimately involved sanding out a lot of the material from inside the torso, thus making it lighter. Might be worth looking into to make it less top heavy.
       
    47. I keep mixing things up. My Nabarro Sumner is on yet another body and I think I like the proportions even more

      Your Sumner looks good! Very contemplative. ^__^

      And I will definitely take more photos of Wally soon! Hehe, I'm still trying to get used to having him. This morning I thought something about "my Wally" and I actually had to stop walking and just stand there because it made me feel all bubbly. :fangirl:
      I need to get him more of his own things too!

      @Uollka
      I realized I never commented on your photo, it's gorgeous! I love the dust mote effect and the colors you used. <3

      Since I've been staring at Wally a lot lately, hehe, I noticed just how piercing a gaze all of Nabarro's sculpts have. It's so magnetic! :chocoheart
