MH Jackson Jekyll body questions

Postby ~TurkishDelight~ » Sat Jul 06, 2013 3:19 am

Hello, I have a few questions about Monster High's Jackson Jekyll.

* I was wondering if anyone has any pictures of a Volks or Obitsu head on the Jackson Jekyll body? I'd like to see the actual body without clothes, so I can see how the head and body look together scale-wise.

* How many versions of Jackson Jekyll are there? Just the original and Gloom Beach? Is the only difference the wrist joint?

* I'd like to see a close-up of the molded on underwear (front and back), if possible. I want to see if it might show and get in the way of actual real clothing and look bad. Any experiences with this? :?:

Here's my Japanese Noix De Rome Elf head on a Jackson Jekyll body. His head is the same scale as other Japanese Custom dolls. I shortened my MH body cuz I felt the legs were far too long for my liking. There's only been two versions of Jackson, though both are insanely expensive on the secondary market. The only *body* difference is the wrist joints, though the wrist joints body is the more sought after due to being his 'default' look in the web series.

The underwear molding is actually unobtrusive since the only 3D element of it is the lines depicting it. A quick sanding the lines off is all it takes to make him properly nude.

Thanks so much. That pretty much answered all my questions, but if anyone has a Jackson Jekyll without shortened legs, I'd love to see. :)

So how did you shorten his legs? Did you do the arms as well?

I used this tutorial here http://theukelele.deviantart.com/art/Mo ... -362422493 And nope, the arms are the default length. I dunno, I find the exaggerated proportions don't really work if you put a proportional head on it lol.

I have a pic of Deuce with my Obitsu Slim, Volks, and some other boys. All the Monster boys have the same bodies, the only difference is later versions have wrists http://dolfielittles.com/ency/boys27.jpg

Thank you, DollyKim. That's awesome. :) If it's possible, could you get a picture of a Monster High boy next to all the Volks males, please? I want to compare height, waist size, etc. for a character I want to make. I'm not sure if I want the Monster High boy or the Volks New-EB-C for my character, so I want to compare those two bodies, and how the MH body would look next to the other Volks males, too. :oops:
