Resinsoul Ruoxi and Mai Arrival

Nov 12, 2023

    1. My two custom-order dolls arrived this evening, only three days after I received a DHL shipping notice (and two days earlier than expected). They are:
      - Ruoxi on Xun's body, with elf ears, in a custom resin color
      - Mai/Jun on Tang's body, with elf ears, in light tan.

      They both turned out amazing! Without further ado... [note: dolly nudity ahead, as usual]

      The outer box!

      This box was actually pretty interesting, it unfolded into two subsections (which were difficult to open, lol).

      The fabled Resinsoul Bags...

      Proper mummy, with CoA. A little package with the hands was hidden somewhere in there.

      Here they both are, peeking out of their plastic wrappings in said pillowy covers:

      I haven't seen any owner pics of Ruoxi yet, so I took some quick ones right after opening her.. I love her cheekbones and full lips! She makes me think of both Xun and Dawn's sculpts.

      (That is a POINTY chin lol, I wasn't expecting that)

      I was excited so I wrangled the eyes I made them into their heads, just to see. It was a challenge to be sure. Here they are after!

      Their hands are so delicate!! None of my other dolls have had such delicate hands.

      Here's Ruoxi with her antlers, which I actually don't need for this character but appreciate having:

      Gosh, I love Mai/Jun's expression, it's a fantastic sculpt.

      Overall, I'm so so happy! They look great, and Resinsoul was so responsive when getting pricing and ordering sorted out!

      Thanks for looking! Time to go get some clothes made...

    2. Thank you for sharing your box opening. Both dolls look beautiful. I especially love Ruoxi's profile with her pointy chin, which I did not know she has either, you can't see it at all in the promo pictures. Another cutie for the wishlist thanks to your photos :XD: The colors you chose for both dolls look great too and you're right that Mai/Jun's smirk is so handsome. Looking forward to seeing how you will style them in the future :kitty2

    5. Those antlers are AMAZING! Maybe she just wears them for fun sometimes, y'know? :D

    6. Thank you everyone for your nice comments! I have some big plans for these two (I'm shelling two OCs/DnD PC + NPC that are near and dear to my husband and I). So jazzed and ready to start working on them!

      @Novalyna Yay, I'm glad I was able to help! It's true that the chin is invisible in the company photos. Happy to contribute to the time honored tradition of owner photos doing a resinsoul sculpt justice! :lol:

      @quilleth @drackie Happy to provide! I'm really surprised I haven't seen any photos of Ruoxi floating around already, she's lovely.

      @Aurify She honestly might, they're SO nice. I have half a mind to attach fake moss and flowers and the like to turn them into sort of trees, but that really wouldn't fit the character I'm shelling... maybe an excuse to add another doll to my wishlist? :sweat

    7. I mean the good thing is the antlers are that nice dark brown, so you could technically add them to any doll since they don’t have to be the same color as the doll itself.

    8. @ashbelEro Exactly! I'm sure I'll find a use for them eventually, and they're really pretty as-is.

    10. @Zerkala Thank you! I'm determined to get their wigs done first but man I can't wait to give them their faceups!
