assuming things go fine and dandy, i’m finally selling the diddly dang luts mdf body i’ve been trying to get rid of for like 2 years lmao.
#just waiting on the buyer to pay the invoice and it’ll be official!
one day i will be able to reach through my tablet screen and shake the heads of everyone that spams their playline baby and fashion dolls in the ball jointed doll tag.
#i absolutely block these people but it’s annoying that i even have to
#i’ll put up with the vinyl/hinge jointed dolls because they’re closely related to BJDs
#their construction is quite different but generally they’re marketed in a similar fashion and made to be customized from the get go
#(yes i’m one of those persnickity bitches about doll categorizing lmao)
#but i’m tired of y’alls ever afters and monster highs and rainbow highs and whatnot
#those are a very different type of doll and if i wanted to look them up i’d look at their own specific tags
Good news: The pile of Fairyland hands I bought from what Denver Doll had in stock arrived today.
Bad news: None of the 4 sets of natural skin hands fit Naoko or Keigo.
#just fuck my day today honestly good god
#got 4 sets of hands i’ll need to modify so they fit the stupid wrist pegs!
#magnet hands are so overrated once you gotta deal with compatibility shit
#silver lining is farai and lilith have more hands now
#but only 2 sets each because i had been focusing on getting more options for keigo
Here’s a look at the pile of hands I bought from DDE from what they had in stock.
Unfortunately, absolutely none of the natural skin hands fit my pale babes due to them being on old bodies that Fairyland doesn’t produce anymore. I’ve known for years that the old bodies were pretty decently thicker (and taller) than what FL has been producing these days, but that thought completely slipped my mind when I was making my purchase. Dx
I actually can force the new hands onto Keigo and Hiei, but the fit is more snug than I feel comfortable without modifying the pieces. Naoko absolutely needs the new pieces to be modified though since she is from 2008 (whereas both boys are more recent with any shrinkages older Fairyland sculpts have gone through over the years).
On the bright side, Lilith finally has hands that fit pretty much perfectly. Too bad DDE didn’t have more tan hands available in stock. Hope FL rereleases the new parts in the future. Px
Wish I’d realized this would probably be an issue before buying because I’d have probably opted for more hands for Farai or gotten some of the old hand pieces for Keigo instead.
Anyway, planning to carve into all the pieces, but it’ll probably have to wait until it’s warmer outside so I can do that shit out on the porch.
Also, in case you didn’t know about the size differences between the MNF bodies, here’s an old comparison photo I made a few years ago.
Left to right: Celine on Moe line, Modded Shushu on 2008 A-line with model legs, Marcia on 2008 A-line with cutie legs, Rheia on renewal A-line with cutie legs.
I did end up caving and modified this clasping hands set so Naoko and Keigo can hold hands.
Definitely not completely obsessed about my dolls holding hands.
In other news, I also got a few things in the mail from SMPdoll for Farai and Leyla to share.
Something else I got over the weekend was this hiruseki stone necklace for Hiei that my friendo mssaiinu on Instagram made for me (so also sent me a hell sweet poster/print of Hiei). She hadn’t let me know what she was shipping me since it was a surprise, so I accidentally threw the necklace in the trash with the package. xD;;
The scale is a smidge big for him imo, but jfkds it looks so good. ; w ;
