WITHdoll Mini Discussion Part 6

May 18, 2014

    1. I actually really don't find any issue in finding clothes for my dolls. Etsy is a gold mine for Slim MSD clothes, but other places like Nine9 Style, TATA's paradise, Arcadia Dolls, Ringdoll, and Alice Collections do have clothes that fit Slim MSD dolls pretty well.
       
    2. I have 3 boys in my cart .. so I came here to double check if I do want them... YES I DO hehe

      I need few more days to decide coz my MNFs need these handsome boys in their group :P
       
    3. MNFs and WithDolls are definitely a good combination!

    4. vicemage I like the height difference :D
      thanks for the picture .. lovely dolls
       
    5. I love the height differences between the two companies as well. I think it can look really cute.
       
    6. I do love nine9 style though they're pretty pricey! The annoying thing with tata is most of their clothes are out of stock! I'll have to look into Arcadia and ringdoll, didn't know they were suitable!
      I was surprised that a pair of shorts from alice were a snug fit on my slim msd!
      Thank you for all the suggestions, feeling better about getting slim msd clothes now. :)
       
    7. after further researching different MSD boys.. I decided to go ahead and buy 3 WITHdoll boys :) now the waiting begins .. it's been a very long time since I last ordered directly from a company ^^"
       
    8. They are pricey at Nine9 Style but the clothes are nice with nice details and are well made. Tata does do that, but they have some stuff on Etsy which tends to be in stock. So it could be good to check them out on there. Ringdoll do only have have a small selection, but they are suitable. With Arcadia dolls, they make them for you and they do have a drop down menu for a lot of the clothes, you would just click the Minifee/Unoa option.

      The problem with Alice Collections is they are actually a dealer, so their clothes come from all kinds of sellers. They clothes can be hit and miss in both quality and how they fit. However I have bought some really nice things on there, and they are pretty cheaper. Although they do charge paypal fee's which is stupidly annoying.

      No problem, and Slim MSD clothes are really easy to find these days. They're were pretty difficult when I first got into the hobby because there was less and about, and it was before Minifee's got stupidly popular. So you should be completely fine finding something.
       
    9. Mitis Feles nice outfit! I really like Uliat's faceup!

      Aoibhe congrats!!!

      Goldie congrats on getting her!! Ruby looks gorgeous on NS and that faceup! May I ask about her eyes? (brand/size).

      Mista Isilme Lili looks so comfy in there :3
      About backgrounds, I have a local paper store near my house, and they sell this papers with different motives... they are softer and more manuvable than cardboard, but still rigid enough. Plus, they have a different print on each side, and cost less than a dollar. Maybe you can look for something like that?

      Latefa congrats!! Hope you will decide :D

      vicemage nice couple!


      So many time without posting here! Btw, I got a new camera, and this is one of my first shots!! (All of Coco's clothing, including her boots, are made by me).

    10. latefa - wow three!? Have you decided which sculpts?

      Karla-chan -
      thank you again for the extra info! x)
      are arcadia dolls still going? I looked into them but the website was down and a thread was saying they've gone out of business. :s
      Musume - that outfit looks great! :)
       
    11. Congrats, Latefa! :D Which three are you getting?
       
    12. Thanks guys.. I bought: Twins Mai, Aiden, and Taren :D
       
    13. Oh dear, I really sad to hear that because their clothes were really nice and well fitting. It has been a little while since I have ordered though.
       
    14. latefa -ah I look forward to seeing them! Not enough withdoll boys out there. :p

      Karla-chan -yea it seems they had problems fulfilling orders (some people were waiting almost a year!), it looked like they had reopened after catching up with the orders but I'm guessing they couldn't keep it going. :/
       
    15. I see that is such a shame, they did make the items to order so I can see how they would get behind if they got more orders then they expected. There were so much more I wanted from them as well!
       
    16. Musume Thanks so much! I really love her. Ruby's eyes are 12mm Glastic realistic eyes in teal green. Coco's got a great outfit and boots! You are very talented. I sew, but I never made boots! And such fancy ones, too. Great job.

      Have a great day!
       
    17. Supernova thank you! It was a mix-matching, and the blouse came from my attempts at drape xD

      Goldie Those eyes are amazing, I thought they were Eyeco/Masterpiece! (I'm such a fan of those). Your girl is so stunning, and I hope you will share more of her.
      And thank you about your compliments :) I enjoy sewing so much! I did some white heels, too, before those boots. Need to do more shoes, with more fancy heels -I was thinking on heart-heels.
       
    18. Guys.. just wanted to share homey moments.. its just about her herself not about proper surround ^^

      [​IMG]
      Ruby just.. idk.. Home moments :3 by Enifer ♥, on Flickr

      so happy to have her ^^

      Lots of inspiration and free time for the hobbies to u guys ))
       
    19. what is the waiting time for a doll with a face up? (I ordered 3 so this might add to the waiting time)

      I contacted Withdoll through the Q&A 3 days ago but no answer so far.. the waiting is giving me lost of ideas though which is good
       
    20. Latefa, it's hard to say exactly; they are pretty much ready with the elf girls and I'd say Ash and werewolfs weren't as popular. So they wouldn't be as busy and it could be fast. It depends on the face-up artist too, as they outsource their face-ups.

      Generally lighter skins are faster, maybe two months, while tans and grays take three or more. Yours were real skin, right? It shouldn't be too difficult, and weather is supposed to be better for casting during winter months, so that's a plus too. Face-ups seem to take 2-4 weeks. I'd guess casting won't be any longer for three than it would be for one doll, but face-ups might take longer?

      Or I'm completely wrong and your boys will be home before Christmas. Or around spring. But my guess would be mid-February. ^^
       
    21. Mista Isilme I see.. thanks..
      yea they all are real skin with face ups :D
      I really cannot wait to see them in person.
       
    22. Musume They are very nice eyes with lots of detail and the color is great. I think I might get her some other colors, too. I will share more of her when I get her clothes made, I have two outfits planned for her. The one I am working on is a fairy outfit and then one for her Elf hunting activities.

      You're welcome. I enjoy sewing, too. Sadly I am just really slow. But I never tried shoes! I would think heels would be very hard to make, not that boots are easy, LOL. Wow, and you want to do fancy ones, too. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

      Have a great day!
       
    23. enifer your girl is gorgeous! Love that hat and shirt!

      Goldie thanks! I know the feeling I have tons of dresses planned! I was thinking on doing a Snow-related dress, for this season, maybe with a train... it would be the first with train I have ever done!
      Can't wait to see what you will do, too!


      BTW, have you seen the new releases?? I love this edition of Luna, she looks perfect!
       
    24. Luna looks beautiful, and with her faceup, even more perfect for my oc. X.x -sighs- every company is releasing the perfect dolls right when I cannot buy them
       
    25. The Eliza looks gorgeous too! Should have got her in Brown Tan UV from the start I think! Don't think I can afford her though, sadly.
       
    26. 10 weeks I think I can handle that.. maybe hehe =)
       
    27. They're right about well worth waiting for! My boys are incredible, and amazing posers.

      Speaking of them though, I really wanted to share an updated shot of Carlos, my WD Kyle. :) he's finally finished and I could just die. <3

    28. I don't have any Withdoll doll but I've eyeing the twins Nei and Mai...anyone has picture of any of them? I can't find pictures anywhere >_< I want to see how they look in owners' pictures before making a purchase. Also, I would like to see pictures of the tan and real skin types! I can't decide which one would look better. Help is greatly appreciated! :)
       
    29. It's been a while since I last visited this thread. @.@;; I have lots to catch up with! I skimmed through the last few pages, lovely dolls and photos everyone! And congrats to those who have ordered/received new dolls~ :D

      yumi~, The Withdoll group on flickr is a good source for owner photos. Unfortunately there aren't that many photos of Nei and Mai around, though. :S


      One of the reasons why I haven't been very active online is that new Moros arrived from Souldoll last week, so I've been working on him~ :aheartbea I was able to take a quick photo of him and Apate today:

      [​IMG]
      She's pleased now that her dearest brother is here again, haha. xD I adore their height difference - Apate no longer has to take her shoes off to be shorter than Moros! :D

    30. Mizya: Thank you!! I will spend my whole afternoon in that flickr group =) Moros and Apate, lovely names and lovely dolls!! great picture and colors :D
       
    31. Latefa it will pass by fast! If you don't know, Withdoll outsources faceups and clothing, so those options delay the process.

      moondream6 your boy is stunning!

      Mizya welcome back! Love your siblings, as always, I really like how they look together :3


      I did a little on-character things for Coco, and now she is on the cover of a magazine!

    32. Woah, Musume! That looks really cool! :D

      I still haven't started my elf Emma's face-up. I hope I can show her soon.
       
    33. I do want to see Elf Hunter Emma's painted up actually since I love the sculpt a lot and I can't wait to see what other people do with her. I really want to get my girl painted up soon, but I can't do face-ups so I will be sending her off again!
       
    34. Yay! My Eliza shipped today :D :D :D Now I just need to find some appropriate clothes for her ;)
       
    35. I haven't been on here for a long time, so I'm sorry if this has been discussed recently: has Withdoll completely done away with urethane tan? It hasn't been available during the last several events, and I was thinking they had it during the holiday events last year?
       
    36. Ahh so excited :D my order from Oct is shipped today! Such happiness!
       
    37. Urrgh I need to try to photograph more of my dolls... Sorry for always just lurking and rarely posting photos:

    40. AmberRM she's gorgeous! I love her little outfit~ Did you make it yourself??
       
    41. I love that cover Musume!

      I haven't been on DoA for a while (I had a swap problem that made me mad enough that i had to take some time away) but I'm back and ready to look at dollies!
      [MENTION=64024]JAS101[/MENTION]- I have an Eliza and I can tell you- she's pretty awesome! I got her with the faceup/wig/shoes, but commissioned a dress for her :-)
       
    42. Yes, unfortunately they're not making it anymore. It's really a shame, but apparently brown tones (and dark tones generally) are hard to make properly out of the urethane they're using. It's really a shame because I really want to buy a tan doll from them at some point, but I just really don't like french resin. I would even pay a lot extra to get tan in urethane, but I guess they don't want to charge their customers (and of course it's easier for them when they don't have as many tones available at the same time).

      Oo, she's lovely. Please post more photos of her :3
       
    43. I was watching box opening on utube and was surprised how big the doll boxes are.. now am worried about my 3 boys getting shipped! I use a forwarding shipping service and I pay shipping twice .. I left them a Q&A inqery about this matter I do hope I can find a solution so I wont pay twice :)
       
    44. Oh no!!!! Withdoll uses french resin for their dolls?! I didn't read anything on their page, do they use french resin for all skin types or just for the tan brown skin?

      I'm so disappointed to read this, I just ordered Ner in real skin....the order is fully paid but if it is french resin I don't want it >_< can someone who knows Withdoll very well confirm this? please! it seems I had to research more before taking the plunge. :(
       
    45. The UV marked resins are axson brand french resin with sunscreen. They won't yellow like French resin does but they have the same look and feel (which isn't quite as apparent in the dark colours). All the colours without the UV mention are regular urethane.
       
    46. Thank you for the info Yenna...sadly, I will cancel the order :( I just don't like french resin at all. *sighs*
       
    47. What a bummer! I've been waiting for a chance to get a urethane brown Juwel basic edition for quite some time :( I guess I'll have to decide on a different skin tone. I love the cream white, pink white, and normal so it'll be hard to pick which one ><
       
    48. Oh wow, she is beautiful!
       
    49. Laoky, Mazokugirl451 thanks!!

      JAS101 congrats!! Will you do a Box Opening? :D

      lemonlime I think that when they are having troubles with weather, they take that option. It seems to be a lot more difficult to make.

      Aatos gorgeous photo! She is so perfect :3

      AmberRM gorgeous! I really love her wild hair, so perfect!

      Latefa I have seen 2 Withdoll boxes shipping in only 1 big outside box, but I don't know what will happen with 3!

      Yumi as Yenna said, the resins marked as UV are french. But I can tell you that it is not shiny nor translucent. I have a Donny in Brown Tan UV.
       
    50. here is there answer Musume

      I do love withdoll custom support :) so friendly and nice.
       
    51. Thank you so much! That is amazing to hear! I purchased mine blank with the clear shoes. The rest I'm going to do on my own so it might take a while before she is ready.

      Mine is going to be a character from a anime I really like and keep my other Withdoll girl company since those two will be the only ones among my dolls who are based on existing characters from a anime or manga.

      Thank you so much! She arrived at customs today so if I'm lucky I might get her before the weekend.

      I'm not sure about a box opening but if it's something that would be appreciated I will try to make one :)

      Also I thought I would share a picture of Casca. She's my first Withdoll girl and is Brown tan UV. Also not complete with make up and the right clothes yet. She is supposed to be a character from the manga Berserk. Fair warning everyone! Be careful if you search for pictures of this character if you're at work because unfortunately the Google search for this character will show a lot of the darker stuff in the story. But here are two links to pictures of her that I feel are safe to look at and which represents the character as she usually is in the story :)

    52. Latefa nice to read! Hope you will get your boys, soon!

      JAS101 Casca is gorgeous, and I'm a fan of the Brown Tan (UV); it is such a perfect skin tone! She looks stunning, and Berserk was interesting, though I only saw a couple of episodes from the manga... the photos you shared look really interesting, too! Can't wait to see how you do the custom!
       
    53. OMG Casca!!:D:D:aheartbea that sculpt is perfect for her! she looks awesome!! I'm very excited because Berserk is my favorite anime of ALL TIME and Casca is my favorite female anime character of all time as well!! can't wait to see her with face up, she's so beautiful and the tan skin color looks very rich.
       
    54. Hi guys. I'm in love with Taren, so thought I'd take a look at him on the Withdoll site only to find that he's marked as sold out! Any idea if he's likely to come back ? :pout:
       
    55. You should probably post on WD's Q&A board. The page probably just ran out of the stock they'd set for him and that's why he's sold out. So, if you message them, they should make him available again, as he is a basic sculpt.
       
    56. Thank you I shall give that a go.
       
    57. Thank you so much! I really like how beautiful this tan color is on her :)

      Berserk is a really great story but you do feel very sorry for this character and all the bad things that happens to her.

      It might take me a long time to complete her since right now I don't have any way to do her makeup at the moment. But eventually she will be completed :)

      Thank you so much! :love I absolutely love Berserk and it's my favorite anime and manga. And Casca is amazing as a character. I got this idea a while back and when I found Withdoll Angela and saw she was available in tan I just had to make a Casca doll :)

      Also, Eliza arrived today and I made a box opening for her: http://www.denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?653241-Withdoll-Eliza&p=11217320#post11217320
