Sartoria J Design Group

Oh, thanks for pointing that out! Not sure if I missed his page earlier or what. And yes, those color options sound intriguing!

 

Maybe they just thought the term "peach cream" didn't suit a manly knight? You could be right on the inspiration! If he's offered with armor, I'll guess I'll have to make room for him in the budget...

 

@GreenTeaSlug - Wowza! Wonderful comparison photos!!! Thank you for doing them!

 

Bravo! I put these in my permanent notes.

 

@GreenTeaSlug The comparison picture of the bodies is just great, thanks a ton! I just got a bunch of SartoriaJ-clothes, it will be interesting how they will fit on the EID-bodies.

That picture of Juliette is cool. I love the pink fur!

 

@GreenTeaSlug Wow! Up till now these bodies didn't make sense but now I get it! Wow! Oh I already said that!
My large SJ order of clothes etc. seem to have left South Korea. Can't wait to see! These are for my model SIDs.

 

@GreenTeaSlug - great comparisons! Very helpful and so useful, thank you.

Check out SartoriaJ's gallery again...the male resin colours are up!

Right, I have a complete 100% failure to keep any male bjds for very long. I can't honestly pinpoint what it is that makes it impossible for the lads to stay. However, I have had a liking for Iple's Rex from the moment he was released...long story short...also quite keen on SJ's Jude because he has a bit of a Rex vibe. So, Jude on the new SJ athletic body has just started to wrangle his way onto the"in-my-head-only"wishlist.

Please can I request some Jude spam
What size eyes works for the Jude sculpt?
Thank you.

 

@StrontiumDog - I have the first version of Jude...so I think his head is a tad smaller than what size head they are selling now...though my Zak works well on an EID body...and even my smaller Jude can do an EID body...but I prefer him on the SID. But I think any head you buy now will again be a little larger...

So with that in mind here's my Jude on an Iple SID body...

@luluna - thank you for enabling...uh, I am mean sharing
He most certainly does look good on the SID body. to me Jude looks a little less mean and moody compared to Rex, but they could pass as brothers. I checked out your flickr from your post above and have to say that Max and Quinn make a fine pairing. Interestingly, where you have Jude with Elle, I can see that an Iple Rachel would work with Jude too and that's something for consideration here.

 

@StrontiumDog - You are most welcome! If I remember correctly...that photo of Max and Quinn...the body is an EID body...with the slightly smaller Jude head...just so you know.

I also thought Jude reminded me of Rex when Jude first came out and did this little comparison pic.

On the left is Iplehouse Rex and on the right SartorialJ Jude.

Oh crikey.....
Thanks for the comparison. Rex has sharper features, me thinks, Jude a little more round, but they could be related. Well, I'm not rushing into anything, but there is some temptation bubbling

 

Jarrad is up now! The pictures at least.
Limited JARRAD Full Doll
With face up A, the white hair and the outfit he definitely screams Geralt of Riva to me

 

...Oh he's looking good...positively edible in fact. *goes to study images a little more*
@Ashemanu - he certainly does!


Adding; Jude and Zak are also up for sale on the new bodies.

 

I went to order but I'm confused about the face up. If you order "no" is that for the free face up? If you order the "yes, $60" one, what do you get? And what is custom?

 

Oooh he looks great! However I'm not sure if the website is loading for me correctly, but there's only one photo of each version and they look sort of blurry?

Edit: Ok, the images loaded but they're still very blurry. Hmm.

 

I notice that the website works best in Chrome for me.
Jay said I should use NO for the free one, then tell them which face up I want. The other options are for those who didn't order a face up originally.

 

@Mahgiep - Thanks for that....I was wondering about what to do about the faceup issue on the 'free' head also.

 

She is so hot and beautiful!

I just received Eleanor with body for my Virginia and it is more cool in life than on photos!

Hi everyone!! First time posting here!!

I caved and bought a Limited Zakary Full Doll with the new SartoriaJ pose body in Amber Beige skin with the B face-up, since I think those choices are the most similar to Beast!Zakary from a little while ago (I LOVE the way Beast!Zakary looks but I missed the order for him)!!

I've been looking at the Iplehouse ladies (S.I.D Mari in particular, and also F.I.D Isabel because yowza, they are gorgeous) for a couple of months and I found SartoriaJ through Facebook because someone said they had gotten great clothing for their Iplehouse girl there, but I had no idea that SJ made their own line of beautiful boys and girls!!

As soon as I saw Zakary I was very attracted to him, which is incredibly strange for me because I'm extremely into much more feminine sculpts for both guys and girls. And, even though the one I like the most, Beast!Zakary, is no longer available, I guess I'm incredibly fortunate that SJ opened an order window for a limited version of him right when I was considering getting him!!

All this is to say, if any of you have a Beast!Zakary, please show him to me!! Or any Zakary, for that matter, really. Please flood my inbox with Zakarys!!

 

There is a beautiful new doll today, elf Lobelia. Please does anyone have any poseability photos of the new Sartoria J body? Also, are there any bust comparison pics of bell and dew shape? I find it very difficult to see body shapes in the promo pics, as Sartoria J tend to take very light skin pictures against a white background! Probably just my eyesight, but all I see is glare, and I really would like to see profiles and body shapes of these lovely dolls. It might help me finally decide to take the plunge. What size bust do you think Lobelia has in the promo pictures (there is no bust option in the dropdowns as yet).

 

@LilyAndRuby - Two threads that might help you:
/threads/sartoria-j-yvonne-on-new-body.818318/
/threads/sartoriaj-female-sd-body-posing-comparison-eleanor-review.823030/
Note that in the second case, the body had been sueded.

 

Thank you so much Sianserais! That's so very much appreciated!! ^.^

 

Glad to help. ^_^ And I agree, I wish they didn't take their photos against such a glaringly white background - it really does affect how much detail the camera picks up.

As for Lobelia herself... I think I have the same problem I did with Jarrad. She's a lovely sculpt, but unless I think up something specific I want to use her for, I'll have to pass.

Edit: Uh oh, I just had an idea...

 

Haha.

 

From what I've seen, is it a bit hit and miss whether SartoriaJ include eyes, even with a complete doll with faceup? That's a shame if so, as really we are buying the full look, aren't we (forgive me if I'm wrong!). Has anyone received eyes with their doll and, if so, were they glass or acrylic, and what size is perfect for them? Lobelia is calling to me, but I'd love to get her look including those eyes...

 

I got eyes with my Zackary head and face up, I purchased from their etsy store. Not sure if they're glass or acrylic though!

 

That's good news, thanks ella-tron.

 

@LilyAndRuby - In my experience, even when the heads were offered separately, you had to purchase the eyes for an extra fee. That's how I got mine. Has anyone actually gotten free eyes?

Edit: Actually, after digging out old receipts, I'm not sure if there was a charge for the eyes after all. Sorry for the confusion. It was still an option one had to choose, however.

 

Gosh I can't remember if my Zakary head with faceup came with eyes. I think I took photos....no I don't think there were eyes.

 

Mahgiep and all, my Zakary from first sale came with eyes, free eyes random color from 3 possibilities was on offer when ordering Zakary head, I ordered without face-up. Eyes are dark grey, but they are not glass.

 

OK, thank you!...so ordering 12mm eyes separately it is then. Or do perhaps 14mm glass eyes with small iris, like Beetles ones, fit well? Maybe for the guys but not the girls I am guessing.

 

I had to purchase separately any eyes I got with a SartorialJ head...Jude was the only head I bought eyes for. (And I'm not even using them with him at the moment! LOL)

@GreenTeaSlug - Congrats on your incoming boy. I would have purchased him...but I went instead and got another Jude (with the free head offer) instead. I look forward to seeing how the body works.

 

I got a pair of eyes with my Jude head back when I bought him. They're oval glass with a low dome. Very pretty and perfect for my character. I think they were free with the initial release promotion.

 

@GreenTeaSlug i also got Jarrad! I ordered him in Opal Beige. I asked if I could request face-up type B without the facial hair and they said they were able to do so which was nice. I also ordered some clothes and and a pair of shoes for him as well.
This will be the last doll I get for a while so I want to everything to come at once. I’ve never ordered from SartoriaJ before so I’m really excited after seeing everyone’s pictures here!

 

I really like that SartorialJ is doing an Elf Lady...but I think I've only seen maybe two owner photos of the new female body....I'd LOVE to see more....so I can decide if I want one.

Till then I just have to have my female floating filching bodies.
Naomi (Lyndisfarne) is on an Iplehouse HID here...

More photos please!

 

I am still waiting for my Yvonne and her body to land, and hopefully her clothes will come with her. It's been such a looooong wait, but I believe she is still currently sitting in the international post somewhere across the Atlantic. So hopefully she'll start moving soon? I loooove the new elf. I would so love to get her, but not sure that it is in the cards. We'll have to see..

 

@Sianserais & @LilyAndRuby In regards to getting free eyes. SartoriaJ had a promo on etsy for when you bought 1st Jude head, you got free eyes with him. That promo also ran with their 2nd head Zakary for I also got free eyes with him. Both were face ups and both of their eyes were oval glass eyes. You could choose from 3 colors with Jude and I believe random with Zak. Not positive. Jude came with the 8mm which in my opinion were too small on him for they gapped. 10 mm were more suited for that head. As for Zak, He wore 10mm and he came with those size eyes. So yeah. They gave free eyes in both of those times. For the 1st Yvonne head . I had to buy the eyes for her. and i think from then on , it's been you had to buy eyes separatedly.


@GreenTeaSlug,
How exciting. I was tempted by Jarrad but decided to buy Jude, since there was that special of getting a body and extra head if youo had bought a previous head. He wanted, his own body in a darker color, expresso brown. I do like their male body. Very nicely done.

Will look forward to seeing your Jarrad. I thought in that darker color with those amazing cheekbones, he makes a wonderful character.

An yep. I had forgotten that my Yvonne head came with a free wig.

PS. I do love that outfit. I didn''t know it was called a Witcher outfit. I got it with Jude.

 

Thanks all for the info! I was probably remembering buying a pair with my Yvonne then.

 

Uh...

 

@GreenTeaSlug

oh you had to go and do that, did you? lol. I'm so loving what I see. Why couldn't they wait until the Christmas sale to bring out the Males elves. Aarghhh. sigh. Thank you so much sharing him. Will look forward to seeing him in full face up.

I didn't go with the face ups that they had for him(JUDE) as SD. I tried sometime different. Wish me luck that it works out with the expresso brown. And no I don't watch Netflix. But I do like the outfit.

 

He's looking great too! My problem is that I do love elves, but I don't have much use for elf-dolls because they don't exist in my stories. (I could use Lobelia for someone, but the body doesn't suit the character.)

 

After seeing the video of Lobelia on instagram, I am so tempted to buy her now!

 

I tried to find answers to this earlier in the thread, but the conversation drifted to another topic, so I'll ask it here: SartoriaJ sent me an invoice for my first layaway payment like a day or so after I placed an order for Zakary. I paid it a couple weeks ago, but am wondering whether I have to send them a second payment myself or if they'll send me another invoice?

 

@GreenTeaSlug - I did wonder if that's who it was, given the chin. The teeth are subtle enough they probably wouldn't bother me, but I just don't know that I need him. I really like the idea of adding elf versions of previous sculpts, though!
As for Lobelia... I have a couple characters currently shelled in SOOM SGs whose proportions look a little strange in my mostly IH group, so I've kind of had it in the back of my head for a while now that maybe if appropriate sculpts turn up with a more realistic body-type, I'd replace them. Lobelia's sculpt would totally work for Verity (currently an SG Nephelin), but she's supposed to be tall and willowy, and those SJ hips are kind of hard to ignore.

 

Just ordered Lobelia, I'm so excited!

 

@GreenTeaSlug I got her in peach cream with the dew bust and a custom face up (Yvonne Parisienne [type d] with the lip colour of Naomi Arabian Nights [type a]).

 

That sounds like a gorgeous combination!

 

@mysticaldolldreams Thank you!

 

I wondered if they were going to do any re-releasing of sculpts!

@GreenTeaSlug - I think you will love a Naomi in WS (of any resin....LOL)

Till then...here's a Naomi in NS... Just to get you in the mood.
