      Row 2: Little Monica, Volks
      Row 3: Luts, Atstudio, Rsdoll

      [​IMG]

      First row: Dollshe pale tan, October 2016
      Second row (left to right):
      Dollshe copper oriental, April 2017
      La Légende de Temps real skin, December 2016
      Iplehouse special real, July 2017
      Fairyland tan, 2018-9(?)
      Pygmalion Doll sand beige, February 2018

      Third row, Idealian headcaps:
      Soom tawny (Zak - One Fine Day), November 2015
      Soom tawny (Grahame - Forgotten Kingdom General), June 2018
      Soom tawny (Tei - Forgotten Kingdom Admiral), July 2019

      Taken indoors with natural sunlight.

      Dollshe copper oriental and LLT real skin are a little different, with the latter having a more yellowish undertone, but they’re close enough to make a decent hybrid. From what I remember, real skin is supposed to resemble Loongsoul's French wheat skin.

      Fairyland tan and Pygmalion sand beige are a close match. There may be variations between Pygmalion batches, however.

      Soom tawny became darker and less saturated some time before or in 2018. I would speculate that 2015 tawny may resemble Iplehouse peach gold, as 2016 tawny was a match according to owner photos.

      2018 tawny is similar to Iplehouse special real and would hybrid reasonably well. Even between tawny 2018 and 2019, the 2019 color is a little darker.

      [​IMG]
      Row 1 - Dollshe Fresh, Iplehouse White, Granado Pale Normal, Switch Normal
      Row 2 - Resinsoul Normal, Soul Doll Normal, Iplehouse Normal, Pygmalion Doll White, Little Rebel Normal
      Row 3 - Monochrome 26% (Normal), Dollshe Oriental, Volks Pureskin Normal
      Row 4 - Ringdoll Old French Normal, Spiritdoll Normal, La Légende de Temps Normal, Migidoll Normal

      * Dollshe Fresh is close to Iplehouse white, just a little darker.
      * Granado's new Normal is paler than the old Normal Pink.
      * Switch headcap from 2015, may have a little yellowing.
      * Dollshe Oriental has a bit more of a yellow undertone in real life compared to the pinker resins.
      * Ringdoll Old French normal from 2013, no longer in production, likely to have yellowed.
      Resins come from within 2016-2018, unless stated otherwise!


      Please let me know if you have any resin-matching questions or requests, and I will try my best to help!

    2. Thank you so much! I wish there were more of these comparisons out there!

    3. @BlackCatNova, you’re welcome! I’ve also been trying to compile resin comparisons and other reference photos on Tumblr if you’re interested~

    4. Thank you for these comparisons! I’ve bookmarked this thread :)

    5. Thank you for showing this. I've been trying to find comparisons that are more recent and almost none exist. This is really helpful.

    6. @krystina @SinsoftheSerpent, glad I could help~ After accumulating a lot of dolls, it was interesting to see the rainbow of resin colors side by side :D

    7. Oh that is amazing! Thank you for sharing.

    8. It's funny really. I have a couple different companies I have enjoyed, and you'd think with as much as I consider hybridizing Loongsoul, Iplehouse, Fairyland, Ringdoll, Luts, etc, that I might have taken comparison photos over time.

      Nope never once thought about it.
      Thank you. I usually hesitate because without knowing the similarities, I don't want to waste time or energy like I did recently by accident. I don't expect perfection but a pink is definitely not good with a yellow.:XD:

    9. Do you know if DF-H normal yellow would match with any of them? Particularly interested in the migidoll as it looks the closest to what I'm looking for. Dika doll seems a pretty good match from your pictures.

    10. @ninive, sorry it took a little while, but here’s a photo of some normal resins that are close to Doll Family-H normal yellow. I’m not sure what year mine was made in, but Migidoll from 2018 is indeed a good match. Unfortunately I no longer own Dika Doll normal yellow, but I think it would be lighter in color than Doll Family-H. I hope that helps!

      Row 1: Doll Family-A, Doll Family-H, Migidoll
      Row 2: Little Monica, Volks
      Row 3: Luts, Atstudio, Rsdoll

    11. My Migidoll is old, so probably NS B (His code starts with 14, I'm assuming that's the date it was made), from your pictures the difference doesn't look like a lot though. The Dika doll and old Migi seem quite a bit yellower than the rest. How does DF compares with Dika doll?
      I'm actually trying to match old Luts and my Migi is the closest I know of, and easier to find comparisons for than Luts which isn't known for consistency.

    12. @ninive, oh I see, you’re interested in the older Migidoll resin. I’m not sure what year mine is from, and I recently noticed the body’s certification says ANS, so it may really be NS A. I will try to get a picture of it with DF-H and similar resins some time soon.

      How old is the Luts resin you’re trying to match? I’ve already sold my Dika Doll body, but I previously took a photo showing Dika yellow with a normal Luts head from 2013.

    13. 2013 is too recent, I also have a 2013 Luts head and it doesn't match.

      This is a quick comparison I took, the older Luts is a very similar yellow to the old Migi while newer Luts is clearly pink. Not quite as dramatic in person but still.

    14. Hi again! I got a picture of old Migi and the closest matches I could find! Finally had the time to take out the body from storage~~ It may actually Migidoll’s NS A, which was supposed to match Luts as opposed to NS B with Volks. Anyway, these are my yellowest resins, as the Migi body is older and mellowed naturally. Most of my other, newer ones were either too pink, too orange, or too pale.
      [​IMG]
      Universe Doll is very close from what I could see. Switch old, discontinued normal matches very well too (their new powder beige is too peachy). Volks, likely mellowed, has a bit more saturation, but it’s in the same color range. Doll Family-H is lighter and less yellow, don’t know what year unfortunately. I no longer have Dika Doll yellow, but I think it would be too pale in comparison.

      It would be possible to obtain the older formulations secondhand, or in Universe Doll’s case, buy direct or go through a dealer. (Here’s an easy place to view their bodies if that’s what you’re looking for.)

      Hope that helps and good luck!

    15. I got my Migidoll second hand and the certificate only says NS, since it's apparently a 2014 it might be their New Normal. Which year is yours? I'll probably still buy the DF-H body, because I really like it, and hope for the best. Thank you!

    16. @ninive, I checked the certificate and the first four numbers are 1208. Not sure if that would mean 2012? Anyway, wishing all the best going forward, and feel free to share any new findings~

    17. Just THANK YOU! Extremely useful post I'll look back to every time I have a color doubt! :D

    18. Mine starts with 1406, I think they use YYMMDD+batch number. I wonder if someone with a newer one could confirm.

    21. Hello, I would like to know if I can hybridize a light tan Dika Doll head with a light tan or tan Doll Family H body.
