ok,I recently received a BF Old skin Blossom body from Akara this week..{you probably seen my FS thread} well it didn't work out so I need to rehome it...and it looks like no one is really interested...I am thinking of putting it on ebay this weekend..but unfortunately I don't know what resin it will match..{other than an Old skin BF head} could some one tell me what other resins/makers will it match?? in case I get a question...because I honestly don't know/haven't seen that many different dolls. any help would be appreciated...
Ok, I have posted a forsale thread for the Old skin Blossom body I just received from a Doa Member..as it doesn't match the head I was going to use, {I have since sold the head as of today}... so my question is, what do some of you think I should do with it?? It doesn't seem to be of any interest to anyone on here..as it sat in the other members FS thread for a while...is that no one has any dolls it would match?? Obviously I would like to sell it to recoup my lost funds on it or I had another idea... take my poll and let me know what you think I should do with it.. Should I: keep it on the forum and keep trying to sell it? Send it to evilbay and see what happens? keep it for a while and not bumping the thread hoping someone might be looking for one and then PM them? Get a head for it and dye them both a cool color? List the color you think would be fun. {very tempting } sell it for parts {it's not a car! } toss it in the trash.
I think the best thing to do is just keep it here and bump it once a day. You never know, maybe tomorrow somebody will hop into your thread and sees the body and wants it. Also, try e-bay (I assum you meant evilbay with that XD), you'll have more audience with that. (I mean, if they sold there an air-guitare, then I'm sure somebody will also buy your body! -not literally!-).
You've got some amazing handmade dolls on your website so I think you would be able to do wonders if you'd do the dye job option. It would be the best use of your creativity and who knows... maybe someone would be interested in buying it as a customized doll instead of just a body. Good luck with your decision!
i say keep it and do a dye job! you could find a nice head and maybe it'll be one of your favorite dolls!
Tiggtea-- yeah I really need to sell it to pay back the money I used,..ebay..just what I said..evilbay Janako-- thanks so much..I have dyed one doll..my now famous..or infamous Horny the little devil...and I thought if everything else fails at least I could have a unique doll..and you are right..someone might be more inclinded to buy her...any color choices??
Oh, here is another thought. A body like that is almost crying out to become a cat-girl. Drop a magnet into the tush so you can put on a magnet-hold tail, maybe do a paint or dye job on the whole body for a Siamese or a tabby or even a lion-color or a black panther.....
Make your own custom cat head for it. Because there just aren't enough cat dolls out there!!! And then dye it green.
ah good suggestion but I already did that with a Mau head and DZ body with a permanent tail....thanks though!!!
thanks!! I have a Mau/modded DZ into a siamese doll...and I have a Petdoll Ant ordered....umm green cat?? ...
Well what colour is the body? if its normal skin tone a light blue may not work. I suggest a green ^_-
Did you see this head for sale? http://www.denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?t=120900 Edit: oops it's on hold already
yeah I saw that head..I already spent $260 on the body..if I get a head it will be cheaper..like a KD head.
If it were me......I would get a really inexpensive head, go with a full dye job and do an over the top fantasy mod. Maybe a unicorn girl? Forehead horn and a long silky tail made from wig hair? You could use a spiral shell for the unicorn horn.
oohh now there is a thought!! and I have some of those shells too...thanks!! ooh I read a book that had a centaur girl who only had front legs of a horse, no tail but horse fuzz....oohh I could mod some horse hooves....oohh now the wheels are turning.. but what would be considered an inexpensive head..most are at least $85..
One problem - You are trying to sell a used blossom body for $260 when a new one costs $200 on Bluefairy site. I think you should lower your sale price and also mention to people that the body is a reasonable match with Kid Delf old normal skin heads (check if that is true - I believe I have seen such combos on DoA), plus old normal skin Tiny Fairy dolls by Bluefairy. And maybe add "sexy" or "mature" to your title? And "Price Lowered" Carolyn
Well that's the thing.. I paid $260 for it and have only had it two days....and its Old skin? I guess its harder to find?? not sure....I did put OBO {or best offer} on the listing..I haven't ruled out ebay, but this thought to put this thread up to see what others thought..thanks ! ad keeping it might be an option if I have it for a few weeks.
I think the old skin blossom body is a darker flesh tone so it only matches older ns bluefairy heads and older ns Kid Delf heads (which were darker than the current ones)? But I am not sure. Carolyn
You could check the artists doll forum, a lot of people are casting heads they've sculpted, and you might be able to find someone willing to do a resin match on one for you?
I think someone put a Unoa faceplate on an old skin Blossom body. (Apparently the new skin bodies don't match as well). Since the Unoa faceplates will be available shortly it may be something to consider,--- you would have to make a head back though. It would certainly make it easier to sell if you don't want an Unoa!
