I've had the same thing happen to me with my older SW DDH-10, at some point I'll try to use Loctite to patch it up but the crack isn't that bad. This thread might help.

Yeah that's what I was trying t say, I knew heads had the same peg or w/e so they're technically interchangeable but they wouldn't look good.

DDP clothes continue to be troublesome, but many MDD things will fit. The only real difference is longer legs, so some socks/tights/stockings will be short, skirts might have less coverage, and so on. One-piece apparel is the most troublesome. There are some who make clothes specifically in DDP scale, thankfully -- check http://cheerydoll.com/product/list.html?cate_no=51 for some options.

oh wow, im flattered my pic made the thread opener. i tried taking some more during an indoor photoshoot this evening, but i just couldnt get things to line up the way i wanted them too. I'll try again tomorrow maybe.

What do you guys do when you cant get the shot thats in your head? Also why are wigs such a pain in the ass?

>> No.43844105

>>43843009
You put in good work, anon. Even if you didn't get the shot today, you've got more practice under your belt for next time.

As for getting the shot, I'm going to break this into paragraphs for readability. The first thing I do is get everyone posed and ready before I start shooting. Take a few test shots as you do this to make sure everyone is doing what you want -- making eye contact, holding things naturally, not in some awkward pose, and the like. This also gives you time to try and manage wigs -- Volks' styling products are worth it. I have yet to find a dupe of their water wax. On the other hand, in my photos a lot of the time the wigs are far from perfect -- the wind blows, after all. I just roll with it because the alternative is to slowly go insane. Short hair is always easier to maintain than long hair at the end of the day, and complex styles (braids in particular) can look messy in an instant if you're not careful. One thing I know Zodake_Ekadoz does is to use transparent fishing line or even small doll stands to help his Miku's hair look dynamic and caught in motion, but that guy is really good at what he does in general.

Beyond that, always try new things when you're out taking photos! Maybe you need to be closer to your subject, maybe you need to be further away. Lay on the ground (even if it's muddy- many times I have said "I don't want to do this" as I begin to lay in the mud, but the results were worth it,) or elevate the camera, or see if it's better as a vertical shot instead of horizontal. Put your camera (phones can do this too!) on manual and start messing with settings! You won't break anything. Learning how to make the best use of the tools you have, whatever they may be, is always a worthwhile endeavor. You don't have to do it all the time, but it's good to know how your gear works whether you're taking photos or doing anything else. Sometimes it's productive to just carry out your camera and shoot whatever you see just to see how they come out later, and other times it's necessary to set up a shot in advance and pull out a tripod to do what you're thinking of. (I honestly hate using tripods because I'm impatient, but it's a necessary skill to develop.)

More than anything else though, experience and repetition will get you where you want to go. I've been taking photos for a long time, but I've only started to really feel satisfied in them within the last few years -- and that's not a bad thing. I took some good ones along the way that I can look back on and be proud of, and one of my best (non-doll) photos is from 2017! But my consistency has gotten far better from when I started, and that goes a long way to getting results.

So keep working at it, anon. Eventually you will be able to make the images in your head into reality.

Sir this is a blue board. We're birds of a feather, along diorama anons from /toy/, hope you enjoy this thread. On a more detailed answer, the onahole general is what you're looking for:

>Seamless bodies
Evoke and LD Doll. Sometimes people photoshop joints, like hachikoromura @ Twitter.
>Loli
Most dolls in the 1/4 scale are, like MDD. 1/12, Nendoroid or Obitsuroid may qualify too.
>Thighs, ahegao
Angel Philia, Imomo Doll for loli pick.
>Anime face
Dollfie Dream from Volks. /cgl/ may still have their mobile game thread, and Dream Girlfriend is the closest style that goes lewd.
>Anime, as drawn by the West
Smart Doll
>Tits
Dollfie Dream Dynamite. Obitsu has soft bust pieces. They're squishy, but not flesh-squishy, if that makes sense.


Back on topic, I might make mini sewing notions for the next doll, having a little helper feels nice.

Never had an issue getting the glue out of my DD heads since they're a bit malleable but resin is intimidating. Please pray for me bros. Going to try gentle heating with a hairdryer on low/medium but if it proves too tough I may need to order the Tamiya paint thinner

DO NOT USE PAINT THINNER. You risk damaging both the resin and the faceup. If you have needle nose pliers, try gripping onto the glue and yanking it.

Condensation is just water and poses very little risk to the faceup, the sealant on the faceup is meant to protect the faceup against things like surface moisture and light abrasion. Paint thinner will dissolve sealant.

So is the endgame of this craft to just make dolls to go for auction?
Like selling 1 complete doll might bankroll the creation of maybe 1.5-2

But as a /tg/ wargamer its really hard to part with something you made. its your vision and kinda a part of you. I always feel a little regret when I sell models.

Some talented people do that. I take photos of my dolls, instead -- the endgame for me is to dress them up and use them as models. The endgame for others might be just having them sit around and look nice. Others might use them as clothing models to practice tailoring, centerpieces in dioramas or roomboxes. There are a lot of ways to interact with dolls and the majority of them, rather than making money, are just a money sink. But most hobbies are like that.

Do you think this person would judge? Maybe explain you like to have them with you for fun and see how they respond. You never know, maybe they'll join you in the hobby! And even if they don't, they can support you. But if your interest has naturally petered out, that happens too.

The endgame is having a satisfying collection of dolls, I guess. But that is the catch. Most collectors never stop collecting, because there is always a new doll that can be added to the collection. The people that are paying those insane prices at Yahoo Auctions just for heads aren't new to the hobby, most of them own many dolls. It's not something people collect to make money. Usually when you sell a doll it is because you want to finance another purchase, or because you are leaving the hobby altogether.

Anon, it's possible to find someone who will support and even share your interests. If you are happy with your solitude, that's fine, but you don't need to be intentionally lonely for fear that no one will accept what's important to you. I'm personally happy on my own, but I know many people do prefer some sort of companionship -- and if you do, you need not settle for someone who doesn't support them. There are plenty of people in the world. Also post chickens and or goats, I love them both.

There are varying degrees of supportive spouses in my local group ranging from partners who don't know what's happening but kind of love it anyway to partners who ended up getting into the hobby and that gives me a lot of hope.

If anyone likes resin and wants to get into tinies, Frappzilla have a sale on some of their tinies to clear house before releasing new dolls July second. They're mostly $20 - $50. They are 3D printed resin, and you will have to assemble them as well as do any sanding, painting, etc yourself, but if I can manage it, it should be doable for anyone. Their head sculpts aren't personally for me, but their tiny animal dolls make me happy, so I thought I would share. Pic related is Peas, who now lives on my keyboard -- I'll take some proper photos of my actual doll as soon as I get some 6mm eyes.

Not to blogpost, but unironically people are returning to tumblr since twitter's dying, half of reddit is closed, instagram is shit, and so on. I literally made a website to host my shit, not even because I think it's worthwhile, but just to have somewhere to put things so I can at least show friends. Lots of people make discords, and I have a personal one for long-time friends and I, but... big community discords are a nightmare. People talk about bringing back forums, as well, but more than anything, places like this and IRC are the most comfortable for me. Email for one-on-one keeping in touch... individuals will mostly be alright, but I worry for small business that survive mostly on word of mouth like many doll creators do. Times are weird, but... I saw the rise of modern social media, and I'm not surprised to now see its fall. Whatever happens, people find ways to keep in touch, so I'm not too worried. Say hey to the people you love, anons. What matters at the end of the day are the connections we make, not the way in which we made them.

Whatever happens, at least this dinosaur of a website is probably sticking around for a while to come.

The one they have up is their 75cm body (68 not including head) whereas the slightly smaller male body is meant to be 68cm (including head) so about 7cm shorter! It was actually meant to be released before the 75cm but the files were lost at some point according to their weibo so it's being rebuilt, it was slimmer and less muscular. I also saw they teased a 1/4 boy body but I doubt it's coming too soon either. As for their 1/4 that just came out, there were issues with the lengths/diameters of some internal pegs, requiring people to sand or thicken or cut pegs to work properly. However they know about it and announced a v2 of the frame so those issues should be fixed going forward with their bodies, hopefully.

I think they will move to Instagram (do jps even know about Tumblr?)

I don't want to go off the rails here but, like some anon pointed out on /g/, this is most likely consequence of big tech companies not having access to federal reserve money anymore or whatever the US is doing with interest rates, so they now have to cut down costs and show that their big businesses are... actually profitable outside of speculation. Twitter is not profitable at all, same shit happened with Reddit API, no more money etc. I wonder what move is Instagram pull now, maybe Reddit/Twitter want to sell data for AI training or something.

I can't believe they really made a doll(male) with huge tits (pecs). I'm interested in the idea for photo ops.

>> No.43923134

So the largest common scale doll is a 1/3 scale, roughly 2ft.
How easy is it to find clothing for them? Like if I wanted to dress a doll up as Aqua (best konasuba girl), a gyaru or Yamato, is there a good company story for that or am I gonna have to learn to sew?
on that same note, do they make clothing for dolls 30' doll?

It's easy as fuck to clothe them. Between Volks, Etsy, Taobao, Booth, and hundreds in-between you can find just about anything.

You can probly find an Aqua cosplay if you look around and if not you can absolutely find someone to commission to make one.

Because DD heads are all pretty much SD sized you can get the effect of super long hair on an MDD by buying a long wig for a 1/3 sized doll, though maybe not quite that long. I would warn you if you're planning to do this because they will get extremely messy every single time you move the doll or even if a breeze hits them though.

SD Anon reporting on my eye-changing project. Was able to remove the glue from one eye with pliers easily. The second eye necessitated the use of the Tamiya enamel thinner. Lightly dipped a cotton swab in the thinner and dabbed around the glue, and within a few minutes I could easily pry it off with a spatula. I see why Volks recommends it - it made the job so easy and there was no damage to the faceup at all (the eye-well shape inside the head makes the glue sit very far back from the face while prying it out).

Here's my SD Mel with her new 18mm eyes. The 20mm default eyes were too big IMO and made her look expressionless.

try asking them, I found them to be pretty communicative
even though they refused to speak japanese to me
for example the honey long long wasn't on their RoW site but they put it up when I asked for it
though seeing as they're OOS on the jp site you'll probably have to wait
based on their blog they do do custom wigs so even if they don't intend another batch of long longs you can probably get one made

Ah... in that case, think of it this way.

1. Are all your needs met? Bills, groceries, obligations, and the like naturally come first and foremost.

2. Have you tucked away any savings for the month? Even if it's not much, always try to sock something away. Not even in case something terrible happens -- you never know when That Thing You Want might come up on the market. Always good to have a buffer.

3. Can you use it? You've seen it in person, so yes!

4. Think of all the other things you could get for the same amount of money. Does this make you happier than any of those other things? For this, let's only focus on other silly things- games or something like that, nothing essential, because we already considered these things in the previous step.

If the answer to the above four questions is "yes", then I think it's fair and reasonable to treat yourself to whatever silly little thing catches your fancy, anon. As long as you and yours are looked after and you're not being too frivolous all the time, it's your business what you decide to do.

That said, if that bag is imitation leather or pleather, I'd strongly reconsider purely on the basis that pleather falls apart if you so much as breathe wrong in its direction.

It largely depends on the person. It's the same as how I wouldn't bring up the fact that I watch anime to most people. Some of my friends still think it's for kids or porn. My parents barely accept my time-wasting gaming hobby let alone something like dolls. It's needless drama but that doesn't make them any less supportive in other ways.

I'm still jealous though. It's nice to see you still around hope you are doing well.

Hello /bjd/, I saw ChocoBana's Hololive dolls on twitter and was absolutely entranced. I am in no position to even think about buying such things right now but somewhere down the road, I'd love to have a 2-3 dolls of my favorite chuubas, like Pomu, Selen, Gura and Bae. Would it be bad form to commission someone using pictures of someone else's dolls?

>> No.43998497

>>43998449
A lot of faceup artists do not like to be given other people's finished dolls as reference, it's generally frowned upon to copy and can be seen as insulting (in that you'd be asking for someone else's style and not their own). However you can give them things like the actual art/vtuber model reference sheets, it's totally fine to just tell them what character you're commissioning and let them work off of that. Just make sure you find an artist with a style you like and check that they'll do mockups before starting work and you should be able to get something you like out of it.

It isn't that the dolls can't be lewd, it's they have nothing to penetrate (and are made of materials which wouldn't be good for that in the first place,) thus /ona/ is better suited for dolls of that nature. No shame towards the horny as far as I'm concerned, this is a matter of pragmatics.

I had a facesless-chan of my own hanging out but it had been bothering me cuz i felt she wanted some expression. It was my absolute first time ever doing a faceup and i only had hobby lobby brand watercolor pencils on hand as my tools(ofc i also used a few coats of mr. Super clear as well to protect her.) I'm not ecstatic but i feel it is an okay job til i can get her a professional faceup done and sharpen my skills a bit. Do you think she will forgive me anons?

>> No.44002063

>>44002046
Of course, the faceup is an expression of your love for your doll. I've been putting off doing my own faceless-chan because I don't have a proper respirator for spraying sealant but this reminds me I should buy one soon. Don't be worried to try and practice multiple times, but she looks cute and since you sealed her it should come off when you feel like it's time to redo it either yourself or by another artist

The way to get better at something is to do it more -- and taking the first step is usually the hardest. Your girl's faceup shows a lot of character and I really like her freckles, anon. I'm sure you've made her very happy for showing so much care.

>>44002290
That's Beatrice. She and her sister Darlene were extremely limited (and huge) releases from DollZone. There are five of each and they cost almost $5000 -- possibly more after shipping. But given that they're the size of a small child, I can't say that's unreasonable, either. Whoever are lucky enough to have one of these two, I hope they're very happy. Dollzone basically have the market cornered on "just unreasonably large dolls" but I really respect the artistry which goes into them.

Dollmore has a line of 105cm dolls (their Trinity line). They always intrigued me but their faces are too mature/realistic for my personal taste. I prefer the sweeter stylized sculpts from Volks and some Korean companies.

Got my Imomodoll from the Aliexpress shop that was posted a few threads back. For about 100 cad it's not too bad. I knew going in that the frame needs modding. Wasn't expecting to give her a full bath with all the mold release and dirt she was covered in.
