1/6 Fox Ears?

Postby paladinari » Wed Aug 31, 2011 9:36 am

So I have a new doll on the way--a 5StarDoll Tong Tong--and she's destined to become a little Arctic fox child. However, I'm a little unfamiliar with her scale (only having an MSD doll and a ruler to go by). I've been looking around for "fox ears" (or kitty ears) and have been looking at the ZM Kitty ears for MSD dolls on Junkyspot. Some say that they look ok on a Yo-SD, but I think I'd rather see examples of how they could look on a smaller doll before buying a set. I think I'm trying to decide between the "Foxy Ears" and the "Small Kitty Ears". Does anyone have pictures of these ears on a small doll? Thanks for the help ^.^

This is Juli, Dollzone BB 27cm, Hazel's son, wearing the three sizes of ears so you can compare!

@paladinari: I'm not familiar with any ears besides the puki ones xD But I do know that Dollmore sells some. They have dog and rabbit (they look kind of weird though) ears too.

@ZM: I love those kitty ears! I've been wanting to buy some for my PKF and LTF for forever. haha

Thank you! That's very helpful! (I think that the large kitty ears might actually be the best) Does your husband really sit there and make them all by hand? Wow!

Kittysaurus: Thanks! I didn't know that any other companies even made ears. I'm going to have to check those out, too.... ^.^

Well, Allison Strom sculpted the original small ones, and Gerald sculpted the medium and fox ones. After that Gerald cast all them in resin. And yes, he cleans up them all by himself! Glad you like them!!

check out these pictures of Fennec foxes. I would still use the fox ears - they really are that large!!

Awwwww-a! Hehe, those aren't ears, they're satellite dishes! (no, really, that's ADORABLE)

The arctic foxes seem to have more proportionate ears, though. I actually looked at the ones on Dollmore that Kittysaurus suggested, and those might work very well, too. It's going to be tough to make a decision!

Animals that live in hot climates will almost always have larger ears than their arctic counterparts.
