My Obitsus get bodies. Also other random doll stuff.

Postby Kd_Bunchanumbers » Thu Jun 09, 2011 5:12 am

Annnnnnnnnnnnd these guys have finally settled on their own bodies after years of being in between bodies. Flick mostly cuz I felt the 23cm Obitsu was too young for her and Cadel cuz I gave his body to a vintage Ken.

Thoughts? Well, when the heck did they change the vinyl material on the hands? They feel indefinitely more rubbery and matte compared to all of the other Obitsus/hands I have around. Also I noticed the skin tone is a touch more lighter than my older Obitsus with the fleshtone. Or less orange.

Also, Cadel's waist is somewhat looser compared to his Slim counterparts. So that's weird.

And... Flick's 25cm knees are terrible. I'm sorry if everyone thinks they look pretty unbent and shiz, but THERE'S HUGE GAPING HOLES when she kneels. That is not aesthetically pleasing in the very least. Also, I had to carve into her vinyl hip sockets so she could sit better. And even though she's pretty posable she can't actually hold those poses, so... 25cm hype? Sorry but you leave me disappoint.

But... I have plans for another 25cm Obitsu so yeah. I dunno.

Good pints include the fact you can easily switch hands like in 2006. In between then and now the Obitsus I got had posts that were slightly too big to in the sockets so it was a challenge switching them out.

And they don't squeak AS MUCH as my other Obitsus so... woo?

Image


Image
Flick has aged from a uncertain 12 year old to a more snarky, flat chested 15 year old haha. Lols it's kinda scary realising how long I've had Flick now (almost 6 years) and to see she's finally done, in my opinion.

Image
This 25cm is very different to the 25cm Volks put out though since whilst the Volks Midi was a scaled down version of a 27cm body, the Obitsu 25cm feels more of a 23cm scaled up a tad.
Yeah, I need to get her socks though since I loathe her knees.

Image
Flick's 25cm body has an extra tilty neck joint so she can actually look up and all that human like movements. Also she has pretty elbows.

Messing with Photoediting shiz.

Image
Lols I had these dolls foreveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer so it's odd finally getting them all done and finished after everyone went through a time warp... Leo and Fen are forever 17 though ;D

Image
Loooool, if they ever make a more teenaged boy body I'll stick Griffin's head upon it since it doesn't jive with Flick's body xD


Image
Lols I didn't feel his Obitsu hands were... flamboyant enough. So I gave him his old Volks hand back.

Image
I like this Obitsu body since Obitsu has worked out most of the flaws I hated when I bought my first back in 2007. The colour is more muted, the torso is finally proportional to the arms and it squeaks less. Perfect in my opinion.

Image
Lols combined with a longer torso and those leg extenders in his ankles, Cadel is looking pretty good for his old self.

Fio is there looking adorable.

Image
I always liked how different these two dolls were despite having the same sculpts.

Image
Lols, I sold off Maia's bf (Pink Momoko) two years ago mostly cuz I thought he was kinda iffy in my opinion... I'm thinking of reincorporating him again but wondering what parts to settle upon.

It's nice for everyone to have bodies again though :)



Image
In more body shenanigans, I finally got my last Fashionista needing doll a body. The generation Girl Lara head was too pretty to put away so woo.Also I finally got the cupcake dress to exploit xD

Image
Theoretically now that most of the dolls that need bodies are done and finished with.

This group was mostly inspired by doll peeps who does the most fun photography with their Barbies as models... Of course I realised that I could never be as devoted so these gals are mostly background gals.

But I really love their face paint so... yeah.


Image
This is to show what I do with my ModelMuse bodies. The first gal is a Fashionista who was given to me as a birthday gift. As I rarely got dolls as gifts from non doll peeps, I didn't want to discard any part of her... So she got the Model Muse as a mostly stock doll.

The second is a random repaint that I didn't like enough to put on a Fashionista cuz I find the GG head pretty blah. But I liked it so she's also rocking a MM bod.

The third was a gift head as well, but urgh. GG heads are not my friends. But I didn't want to chuck into my head box so... yeah, she got the MM body.

Lois Lane is my favourite head and I loved her dress. Her body though, the legs were warping cuz they were rubbery and until I get a Cy Girl sized body, I wanted to look at Lois like this.

The Harumika is a manikin lol. Though I'm searching far and wide for that Liv set store display dummy so I could kitbash her head onto it ;_; WHY DID I WAIT TOO LONG TO GET IT. *regrets*

Lucy's old Shani body was leaking pretty badly on the legs and it looked awful with her dress. So yeah, I shoved Lucy onto a MM body cuz the legs don't leak and the sculpting is pretty nice lol.

Image
Lols just to show that the NDR body didn't go to waste I shoved a Skipper head that, ironically also came from Andrea three years ago, onto it cuz the neck fitted well.

The 80s skippers are... polarising but to me, they're just like Dusty. Slightly scary but they have a certain charm :)

Omake: Flick waaaaaaay back when my face up skills were not... stellar.

Lols she's just a 23cm Obitsu head with the human features (non anime). Back waaaaaaaaaaaaay back when Obitsus used to sell 23cms with the blank heads. Flick started off as a practice head yet... I've held onto her the longest haha.

Haha, my roommate walked by as I had this picture pulled up, and goes "Oh god, somebody made a scene chick doll?" and I went "Um... that's a dude." so he asked who it was supposed to be, and then if it was supposed to be Bill Kaulitz from Tokyo Hotel... I couldn't help gigglesnorting and almost choked on my coffee.

I love your crew of littles!
