SWITCH Discussion ~ Part VIII

Dec 24, 2017

    1. I've got two questions: Everyone is talking about putting their Switch heads on non-Switch bodies, why? Are they no good?
      Furthermore, the Damhyeon is listed as being only compatible with the 65cm bodies. Is this generally correct or will it also fit on the 60cm body?
      Thanks!
       
    2. Hello~ Finally getting to dive into the Switch world with an incoming Ryun-R head, and I am on the hunt for bodies. I'm mainly looking for something lanky because of his character. Does anyone know if Ryun-R would match a doll chateau body in normal pink?
       
    3. The SWITCH bodies are fine (at least the 65cm ones; I don't own the female body nor the 60cm male body). I think people go to other bodies as they may be cheaper, or they have a specific look in mind for their doll.

      For your second question, it's again, about the looks and how the head in general will look on a different sized body.
       
    4. @Elk Thank you for your answers!
       
    5. I had a Switch body for my Soseo for a long time and I really liked it, but then recently I had been really wanting to try a certain other off topic body (Dollstown 17yr) and my Soseo is one of my favorite characters, so I decided to get it for him. I also have used Popodoll just because of the height and lankiness and that it's cheaper.

    6. Oh my goodness! He is so many beautiful❤❤❤
       
    7. OMG!!!!! your soseo is soooo handsome!!!!
      now i cant wait for mine as i brought from a seller
       
    8. It's so nice to see so many different looks on the SWITCH sculpts! :) I've decided to go in a different direction with my Doha, so I will begin working on his new look as soon as his wig arrives. I also hope to share my Waseon in the near future. :celebrate
       
    9. My heads are finally home after getting painted by Anna-Queen :dance
      I don't know what it is about Switch heads that make me think "you'll look great as a girl" but the variety and versatility of the sculpts are what's so fun about them ^_^

      Doha on the left and Huisa Direction on the right:

    10. Thanks, I really in love with Waseon's sculpt. Even without face up, he already looks good!

      One more pic for Waseon :whee:

    11. Wow! :ablink: What a pic!
       
    12. @Ravenwolf your soseo is so handsome! I love his style! He really looks great on that body XD
      @satyrsmoon Aww your pair is so sweet<3 I love seeing girl Switch dolls. Which bodies are they on?
      @natsu82 You take beautiful pictures of your Waseon. Do you have a digital camera or edit phone pics because they are really amazing.

      I will share a picture of my newest boy. The Huisa direction head I bought from @Hisomu. I named him Bellamy <3

      Thanks~

      It’s mirror less camera Fuji XT10. I did a retouch on Snapseed afterwards :hug:

    14. @natsu82 Your Waseon is absolutely gorgeous! :D
       
    15. Thanks! Can’t wait to see your waseon! :hug:
       
    16. @KiwiNinamori - thanks! I was originally planning on leaving Doha as a boy but when he arrived "she" kept insisting she was a girl so onto a girl body she went ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
      Doha is on a Supia 65cm body and Huisa Direction is on a Loongsoul 69cm girl body (without the giant boobs that they usually have on default)
      Your Huisa Direction looks intensely contemplative. Wonder what he's thinking ^^
       
    17. @satyrsmoon Thats great! I was wanting to do a Supia 65 hybrid with a switch head. How is the resin match? Do you have more pictures of the head on this body? I would love to see them. The loongsoul body looks really good too.
       
    18. @KiwiNinamori - There's actually a difference in resin between Huisa Direction and Doha. Even though Huisa Direction arrived later (February 2018, straight from Switch), there's a more yellow undertone in the NS resin compared to Doha who arrived on November 2017 from Faithz.

      Huisa Direction on the left, Doha on the right

      So it kinda made it easier to put Huisa Direction on a pale/light Normal Yellow body like with Loongsoul's resin.

      Doha, I find is typical of the peachy NS formula that most Korean companies use. So when I tried her on the Supia body, I thought it wasn't a bad combo.

    19. @satyrsmoon Switch seems to do that color difference a lot. Most of my Switch heads are different colors depending on when I bought them. But the match looks really great. And proportion for the neck is nice too^_^ thank you very much!
       
    20. @KiwiNinamori - you're welcome :) There's a bit of gapping with the bodies, but that's really typical of hybrids. Glad I could help.

    23. Aww, thank you!:kitty2
       
    24. i wanna ask about HD 60 body. hmmm.. i didn't know this is the right thread to ask or not (help me please to find if this isn't right)

      i have a SWITCH Haji:R with HD 60 body but until now i find it hard to posing him kneel down. Any trick to pose him? i'm afraid if he fell down because when i tried to bend his knee, it did not stabil:atremblin

      thanks for help
       
    25. I think popo68 has the same problem... maybe they are not designed to do that pose...?
       
    26. Question to owners of Seolrok (normal/holy): is the head on the bigger or smaller side? I have ordered one and would like to put him on a dollzone 62cm body but am afraid it may look off since on the official website it says only the hummingbird 65cm body is compatible.
       
    27. I have tried my Seolrok:Holy on an Angel of Dream 62cm body, and I thought it looks fine if you're going for more childish proportions (and ignore that yellowed AoD yellow does NOT match with Rosy white xD). I only have this blurry picture though (the last one). The DollZone body look more slender though so I don't know if this helps.

    28. This really helps, thank you Ivelia! I think I'll take my chances with the DZ body since the head looks fine on AoD. :)

      Popping in to quickly share this shot of my Waseon, Dean.
      They look like they could be Bonnie & Clyde lol.

      @Chelokotik the faceup & outfit on your Doha are beautiful!

    30. Also, just a head’s up:
      I purchased a SWITCH Muffin cut wig from FaithZ in size M & it’s much too tight on my Waseon’s head.
      Not exactly sure what happened there, but I thought I’d let everyone know about this.
       
    31. Really? Waseon's head should be able to wear 8-9 inch but SWITCH wigs do actually run smaller.
       
    32. That's what I thought, which is why I went with the M size wig.
      It does eventually get on his head if you struggle a bit, but there's a high chance of scratching his face or head cap (especially if you have long, strong nails).
      I suppose since the wigs are handmade, sizes won't be consistent every time? I know some people with M size SWITCH wigs that fit fine on Waseon's head...
       
    33. I think that depends on the wig... I bought few switch wigs... some of them are bit big, and some are too small... I have no idea how they measure it, so it's kind of luck if you got the correct size :doh
       
    34. @natsu82 which goes back to what I said about them being handmade, so no two will ever be alike...
      Kind of a bummer since I was really looking forward to my boy wearing it, but I can't really do anything about it...
      I also wanted to tell you that your Waseon, HuaXuan, is breathtaking! His faceup & style is stunning.

      @louisalee I have the HD65 body...
      However, I can tell you that when you want to do a "kneeling" pose, just bend the knees & steady him onto a surface, and push his legs apart from one another. Don't pose his legs straight when kneeling (I'm not sure if this makes sense sorry...)
      Basically just look at Fairyland's image blog, they have examples of kneeling poses. Try to imitate the kneeling pose of their F60 Chloe & F60 Karsh (one knee pushed slightly to the front).

      EDIT: Some more examples, not really sure what company or sculpt this is...

      This is what I meant by push the knees & legs apart from one another.

    36. @Chelokotik you're welcome ^^

      Would anyone happen to remember or have a link to when Pavian was released as a monthly HD?
      I hope someone can help, as I need to add it to the list of releases on the SWITCH wiki here.
       
    37. hi, can I ask does loongsoul 62cm body match with switch skin tone?
      cos someone is selling it and I wanna know if it matches before I buy.
      scared that it won't match.
      thanks
       
    38. I found it so here you go. The search bar on SWITCH's site doesn't seem to work for me ever on the English site but the Korean site the search bar works properly. SWITCH [Monthly HD : Head]
       
    39. Thank you so so much for your help!
      I really appreciate it ^^
      Also, it's the same for me concerning the search bar... Bit odd isn't it?
       
    40. If you mean Loongsoul normal yellow, I have photos like this:
      Loongsoul 62cm old version body, normal yellow 2017, Switch Ryuzo head normal 2017

      Color matching is pretty good, but Loongsoul is a little bit more yellow

    46. So the switch head moves well on it(the dollzone body)? Did you mod the neck?
       
    47. My boys are finally ready. Switch Taeheo and Switch Sohwa.

    48. It does, and I did not mod his neck!
       
    49. I finally found a wig I like for Nezumi! I've been neglecting him for so long because I just couldn't make him fit the image I had in mind. Until I got this wig... I think I just fell in love with him all over again.

    50. I keep forgetting to post my new Soseo, Haru, in here. He's the brother of my other Soseo, Cygnus :D I'm glad I found the perfect shell for him, he was a different sculpt that didn't work out.

    53. I don’t know what it is that draws to to switch sculpts so much. Their features are so company specific and lovely.
