My 65cm DZ body arrived today (part 1/2 of this order) - it's in PS, so I tried my Simply Divine Alec head on it purely for a sense of proportion...
Yeah it didn't look too bad at all, the pink is a lot less pink than I remember DZ pink being... It somehow merely looks a bit paler than the head (Despite the head being a beigey yellowy colour)
Nick Rush may have just stolen Jerome's body from under him!
We'll see when I actually manage to get all of my doll stuff together in the same building I'll be able to check everything, and do head swaps and stuff.
But having the 65cm body here, I really suspect it'll be the super-pink Sabik head that I'm going to have real issues with rather than the notoriously hard to match Simply Divine, since it looks acceptable to my eyes - a bit like a tan line rather than the really odd mismatch I was expecting!
But darn! He suits the 65cm range perfectly - and he's of a height with Nyta on this body, who is herself significantly shorter than Havelock and the big 70cm dolls (so hooray my attempt at relative heights is working! I just need to work out if he gets to keep it or if he's merely keeping it warm for Jerome...)
Also this body is really lovely - the balance and the joints really feel right
Edit: Well that's torn it - just plunked him down, and 1) he stands, no balancing required, or handy walls - he just stands there, looking incredibly grumpy! 2) He can hold all sorts of poses with those brilliantly done elbow joints - including the incredibly Rush-like massaging neck with one arm whilst crossing the other arm protectively in front of himself... Yeah this is Rush's body, colour match or no!
(I
may get this body again in YS for Rush, and give this one to Jerome, but I'll have to see what DZ yellow looks like next to his head)
