Resin Comparison Resinsoul Tans Comparison

Jul 9, 2020

    1. Hello happy people!

      I just got a cute head from an artist creator, and I need to match him to a body! He's way too dark for the Resinsoul Light tan, but the pics I'm seeing online make it seem like their Dark Tan may work! Does anyone have some comparison pics of the Resinsoul Light and Dark tans so I can get a better idea of exactly how much darker/differently colored their dark is?

      Thanks!

    2. I think you'd should include a picture of the head. It will help people find a good match. here's' a comparison though. [​IMG]

    3. I've seen that before, but the pictures of actual dolls I've seen in Dark tan look different, which is why I was hoping for some recent photos.

      Here's a picture of the headcap I'm trying to match compared to the Resinsoul body in light tan.

      It's just a smidge too dark and has a bit more pink tone to it, I think.
       
    4. Pretty sure this is coffee/light tan

      And this looks like dark tan

    5. Hey, I don't have pics on hand, but I could take some for you tomorrow! I have two Dark Tan/Chocolate dolls, one from 2009, the other from 2018 and a 2009 Light Tan/Coffee doll that's only been out of his box a few times in all these years.
       
    6. @crimsonmiko Yeah, the picture of the doll looks lighter, and like it might match my head close enough. The sample swatches are kinda different looking.

      @ArcaneDesires Thank you, I would really appreciate it!
       
    7. No problem! I will get you some pics tomorrow. I'm pretty sure it will be a fairly close match and RS will do custom matches if you send them the headcap, but sometimes you just want the closest match. So I'll be sure to get you some tomorrow and hopefully it will help!
       
    8. @Magnus Vale if neither color works, you can always ask them for a custom color :)
       
    9. @meanae I know, I just wanted to see if I could work with the dark tan. Guess I'm a little nervous about going to the hardware store to match paint chips to the headcap, then sending them to China.
       
    10. The idea with the paint chips is interesting! You could also simply send them the headback :) And get it back once the body is done.
       
    11. Yeah, I'm a bit paranoid about sending out the headcap, with how mail's been lately, so I figured I'd resort to palette matching with paint chips if the dark tan isn't close enough. The owner photos I've seen seem like it would be a pretty decent match, but I'd prefer to see it relative to the light tan since I can directly look at that on my own Resinsoul body.

      I'd also really not like to send out this headcap since this head is technically a miscast in a color not quite matching the artist's normal tan, so would be pretty hard to replace!
       
    12. What company is your head from?

      I just got a RS order in yesterday and the headcap is light tan, the hooves are dark tan, and the leg is white.

      Hope this helps!
       
    13. @Bristol He's a Valentine from Logan Dolls. They don't have many sculpts yet, since they're an independent artist, but I'm a big fan of what they have so far.

      Oooh, that does look nice. It might just work, since it does have a bit of a pinker tone and isn't too much darker. I might end up ordering the body, and if it doesn't work out, order a head to go with it for later, since it's a color I like.

    14. I hope it worked out for you because I'm thinking of doing the same thing+
       
    15. does anyone know how similar dream valley's light tan is to resinsoul's light tan/coffee? I'm curious if a resinsoul head would be compatible with a dream valley body.

    16. Hello!
      If you contact resinsoul, and send your resin sample they can make a match color.
