One week after she arrived... Youki finally has a face - even if it's only a temporary one and not very good. She needs better fitting eyes, eyelashes and a wig that actually fits her head. I had better get to work on it! Wish parabox would restock the 8" center part wigs.
Thank you for the tip. Unfortunately I had already ordered new eyes and a wig before I saw your post. They should be coming in the next week. If the eyes don't work out I will definitely look at Kanis. Do you have a link to them? I've not heard of them before.
Tatu, your Youki looks great! I don't have any Kanis eyes, and might need to check them out as well! oooo, a shiny new thread for ShinyDOLL! A wonderful excuse to spam my adorable Hikali (again...)! EDIT: MODS edited the thread to "Thaasa", but you can see my endless Hikali spam in the Fragille thread!
These eyes look similar to the Lauschaer Glasaugen eyes (also German) that I use for my Akali http://www.lauschaer-glasaugen.de/html/dolleyes.htm. They are beautifully detailed eyes with sharp, clear lines- perfect for our more petite featured Shinygirls Wally, what a cute, cute Hikali (love her rocking horse shoes)! Here's some spam of Tuyen with her guy for the new thread:
WhoooHooo!!!! My Kanagi is back from ravendolls, and she is just gorgeous! Thanks raven, I love her!!!!
^ Ahh I love them!! Kanagi looks a little like my true love Feefee/Eefee! I'm so excited, after June I hope to finally order my dream doll Feefee, I can't wait! Finally a Shinydoll will be mine!! *evil laugh*
Ah Zomboid, good for you! A ShinyDOLL on the near horizon! I will admit here (my dolls can't read this, so it's ok), my Eefee is my truest love, and constant companion!
My cancan-j-series 8" wig came in. It fit perfectly, except for the bangs being a bit long, on both Youki(B) and Nanae. Pictures to come after my exams are over.
Hi everyone I live in New Zealand and I'm a huge ShinyDoll fan. I currently own a Yakki Elf and Akali B - unfortunately they share a body at this point. I am hoping to get another Thaasa body soon Here is my Yakki
dollfanz, your Akali is gorgeous! Love her faceup, and her wig is perfect! Akali always feels gentle and wise to me. ShinyDOLL sculpts definitely have their own personalities!
Thanks wally, she really is a gentle soul, and isn't even minding much that she is sharing her body with Yakki atm
She is lovely, but I have moved her to an AOD body, which is a better body for her proportionately. Not as good of a poser, nothing poses like a ShinyDOLL, but the AOD body is a lovely match for her!
Re Kanis eyes. I bought a pair of 16mm Kanis glass eyes from the DoA marketplace. They are a perfect fit for my Youki's eye sockets but the standard 16mm iris is so large that you can't really see any eye white at all. If anyone is thinking of getting Kanis eyes for their girl I would suggest going for the 16mm small iris option.
I personally think "standard" means standard equality of right and left eyes. If you chose "superior glass eyes ", equality would be excellent. In "standard glass eyes", there are Reborn iris rim reborn doll eyes reborn iris rim eyes solid flat reborn designer eyes standard doll eyes standard dark rim eyes standard iris rim eyes standard art eyes bjd-dolls standard designer ehes standard googley ehes standard paperweight eyes - bur eyes standard If you chose "reborn~" type eyes, The iris would be INCREDABLY big, and no white parts would be seen when installed. I personally like doll eyes art eyes designer eyes. They rather have smaller iris.
Forgive my ignorance but should I be addressing you as Shin-san or Doi-san? Or using a different form of address? So maybe the eyes I bought were reborn Kanis eyes? I'll ask the seller.... Thank you for the tip! I've looked again at your lovely Youki, and the eye whites are clearly visible in your pictures. I've contacted the lady I bought my eyes from, but I'm pretty sure that they must have been reborn eyes because the iris on my eyes seems larger. I am probably going to be placing an order for Kanis eyes soon....
Yuzuki decided to spend her day playing with my fiances Star Wars Lego. [/URL] IMAG0204-1 by Cia Moonchild, on Flickr[/IMG]
Hi Tatu-san, As Japanese language, both would be fine. Many of my dolly friends call me Shin-san. ^^ Ciantha-san, It's a fantastic B&W photo! ^^ This lego set looks very nice!
Hello! I have a Shinydoll Kanagi who was a little bit of an accident, but now that she's here she's probably going to stay XD So pretties!! My only issue with her are her hands and feet...her feet aren't bad but they're so small! She's wearing a pair of MSD sandals right now...which honestly are perfect for her if I can't find other feet so it's not the biggest deal ever...but her hands >.< I'm not a fan of the hands. So I'm wondering if anyone has put different hands on their girls?? I'd really love Dollmore (which I can totally do myself later but if it's been done already, yay) or Supia...because I order from Dollmore all the time and I eventually want a Supia head so I could just get hands at the same time and you all needed to know that! lol But any other hands/feet would be great. Feet aren't as important, as I mentioned...I just prefer larger feet on my dolls. Thanks!! Sorry I just kinda sneaked in the middle of stuff^^'
I still can't quite believe it but I finally did it. I ordered a Feefee today! She is my true grail doll and was my first doll love, I even considered her as my first doll and it only took almost 2 years and 14 dolls later to buy her. I ordered her through Nemuidoll which is run by the lovely babytarragon and I can't wait!!
Zomboid-san It's nice to hear that you finally got chance to meet shinydoll. ^^ Shinydoll family expanded to Germany!!
Yay! Congrats, zomboid! I can't wait for you to get her; she's so magical . VampireAngel13, Dollmore normal skin resin is much too pink to mach ShinyDoll. I don't have my Dollmore girl anymore, and I don't have a good comparison pic, sorry. But Dollmore's resin has a pinky-peachy undertone while ShinyDoll's resin is more creamy yellow. I'm not sure about Supia though. You'll need something along the lines of Volks Pureskin but a little paler. For what it's worth, Unoa resin is almost a perfect match, so if you know a company that hybridizes well with Unoa you might consider their hands. Good luck! ETA: http://www.denofangels.com/forums/s...ls-and-Shinydoll-Hybrids!&highlight=shinydoll That's the thread for ShinyDoll hybrids. Looks like Luts and Asleep Eidolon might be good matches.
Thanks, I'll check it out! I actually have both Dollmore and Supia at home and they both match pretty well which is why I asked about them... and if Luts is a match DM should be fine, they're almost the exact same color. I'm more interested in fit. I only have a Supia head at my disposal (which looks great on the SD body) right now so I can't try the hands on her (and I've not had time to hand-swap my DM Eves hands onto my SD girl). Are Unoa hands really that large?? I've only seen one in person and she didn't seem much bigger than a normal mini....
As I understood it renee_chan mentioned the match with Unoa since Unoa is so heavily hybridized and thusly the database of which resins match Unoa is quite large. I.e. SD-sized hands from companies whose resin matches Unoa ought to match Shinydoll from a resin colour perspective. If you ever get the chance to try out your Dollmore girl-feet on Shinydoll I'd love to see how it worked out. I've been wanting slightly larger feet, and if Dollmore regular feet match then their high-heeled feet would probably match too...
My Feefee arrived to me yesterday and I'm majorly in love!! She is so unbelievably cute and well made and her body just blows me away. I can't believe how I could wait so long to order her lol. Her face is so friendly and cute! She is truly my dream doll! I did box opening pictures last night and will upload them tonight, hopefully they are not too dark. Here is a picture of her holding my little Obitsu cutie: [/URL] P1040924 von Zomb0id auf Flickr[/IMG] I can't wait to do her faceup!
Thank you so much for this wonderful doll, Shin-san! I posted a box opening thread, if anyone wants to take a look, I would be very happy.
Even straight from the box, with no wig, faceup, or eyes, Feefee has an amazing amount of personality!
Ohh,Konoha looks absolutely gorgeous! She looks like she could be Youki's sister. If it's possible I would love to see pictures without a face-up.
I think next year I'd like to add another Thaasa girl to my doll family. The trouble is, which one? I've loved Chizune's chubby cheeks since I first saw her and she's a perfect older sister for my Fragille Suzune. But I also really like Kanae's soft romantic look, and Kanagi's mature face. I know I'd be happy with any of those dolls, but I'm having a hard time choosing one. Such a difficult decision! I'd like to see more pictures of Kanagi if anyone has one to share.
I'd like to share a picture of my Feefee, she finally has a faceup. It's not very good and I will wipe it soon but at least she's not sitting here blank anymore! [/URL] P1060057 von Zomb0id auf Flickr[/IMG] Oh and I know what you mean renee_chan, it's really hard deciding between Shinydoll girls, they are all so lovely!
Thank you so much! She is wearing Kanis glass eyes in 14mm, I love Kanis eyes, they look so real. In fact I have them in all of my dolls lol.
I think your FeeFee's face up is lovely- she looks young & innocent^^ Where are all the other Shinydolls hiding?? Here is Tuyen looking very 'doll' like:
you're right, it's got awfully quiet around here. I love the picture of your Tuyen, she looks almost like a Geisha. I took a few pictures of my Feefee (she still hasn't got a name lol) as a little ballerina today, I love her so much! [/URL] ballerina von Zomb0id auf Flickr[/IMG]
I can't remember who I was discussing it with, but we were looking at whether a Unoa Zero head would fit a Thaasa body, as the Unoa 1.5 heads fit Fragille body very well. The answer is, it doesn't >_< The Unoa Zero head is not that big, but the face is very big indeed! The neckhole on this head is very large compared to Thaasa, so the head sits wrong. It's disappointing since I had this Marion head beautifully painted by Buff, but ah well ^^;
This thread is awfully quiet... Where is the Shinydoll love? I took some pictures of my Feefee before wiping her faceup, I think she's my Hippie girl. [/URL] P1060887 von Zomb0id auf Flickr[/IMG] [/URL] P1060896 von Zomb0id auf Flickr[/IMG]
Zomboid, that wig is perfect! I love the first pic, she looks like a studious girl I need to take more pics of my girls. I say that all the time, but it's hard to find time for me to do anything with my dolls lately. I want to get another Yakki, but I want her to be tan. I guess I'll have to commission someone to dye her if I ever get around to getting her.
