Paper White Resin?

Postby Vetinari » Tue Mar 26, 2013 4:03 pm

Sooo... Which companies have resin that is pure paper white? I'm vaguely looking around for 70cm male bodies in paper white resin; Drax is going to end up on a WS body eventually... :? Wont actually happen for ages yet but I thought it'd be a good idea to see what's out there.

So there's Dikadoll, Resinsoul, Island (ish)... Um yeah... He's quite a large head as they go; size 9 in wigs so I don't think he'd look that great on the narrow shoulders of the RS body.

Also random aside - yellowish Normal skins? My Benedict Cumberbatch MNM has quite yellowish skin; no way near as jaundiced looking as DZ yellow, but definitely not pink.

Ick why have I accumulated so many heads?? I would say only complete dolls from now on but I know that's never going to happen... Still at least my PS DZ should be a decent match for my Bowie MNM... I hope...

zig's body is bobobie/resinsoul and was a pure paper white when i got her. now she's mellowed to a creamish colour, but is still pretty light. here you can kiinda see the difference (her head is pure white, painted that way, the body is a little creamier) but it's almost impossible to tell in photos.

Mirodoll's WS is paper white and a friend of mine has somehow gotten them to make 65cm boys soon! So, they'll be muscular guys (thick and wide) and tall! YAY!

I'm waiting to buy one myself (in NS) as soon as she hears back from Miro that they're ready to go!

Thanks! I'll keep an eye out for the taller mirodoll guy - it's a shame the 70cm resinsoul is so slight, he'd be a nice match, but his shoulders are so narrow it'd look a little off.

I'm leaning towards the new muscular Dikadoll 70cm, but I am keeping an eye out for alternatives - the Dikadoll bodies run closer to 73cm, and I'd prefer 70cm... I've got some specific ideas about this guys height... Shorter than Havelock, much taller than Jerome and kinda muscly... So taller than 65cm, but shorter than the Dikadoll 73cm...

if you absolutely want a pure white body that won't mellow, you could always paint one. (i know, blasphemy)
as long as you seal the body first it shouldn't stain if you want to remove it, and while the paint is going to chip anyway, it's easy to hide or touch up with paint or photoshop.

Ah - no thanks; I'm not too fussed about mellowing I was just wondering about what was out there (Drax's head has a fairly unique resin mix, it's definitely white but there's a hint of grey, and Simply Divine say they've added UV protect to the resin itself... So it's yellowing rate is pretty unkwnown)

TBH I'm really liking the new DZ70cm body despite the fact that it's more creamy white and wont match amazingly well - but I figure with the blushing Drax currently has it wont look all that odd

Can this epic friend of yours get them to make a giant 76cm body-building beefcake??? :-)
