Leeke Mihael, Khal, Akagidoll 66cm body and Granado Nuevo body

Did this quick comparison for someone on doa, so yeah. I was rushing this before going to watch TFIOS or I might have grabbed more dolls for size comparison. Anyway, Zeke (my Khal) is strangely heavy for such a thin dude.





Resin match wise they're not all the same shade. Leeke NS is generally lighter than everything, and Akagi is slightly yellower (not as yellow as my Migi NS-B and definitely not as yellow as my Volks NS, haha). Granado is darker than Akagi, and pinker. But with wigs and clothes etc, I don't notice the slight difference in colour anyway. But yeah, if you want a perfect match... mine don't match exactly. My Leeke is from 2012, Akagi and Granado are 2014, quite new (especially Granado).

That aside, I love the proportions, and how much closer the different body types make them more like my characters, which is the fun part of hybridising :)

Akagi 66cm body with Nobility rerelease Peroth and Migi Cynical Ryu heads

I don't think I would be switch heads onto the Akagi body any time soon because it took me so much pulling to get Zeke's head back on after I took this photos... >_> (Maybe I shouldn't use twine to help me pull the S hook >_<)

But anyway, here's some proportions and resin comparison.
Body: Akagidoll 66cm boy body (NS, 2014)
Heads: Nobility rerelease Peroth (NS, 2013), Migidoll Cynical Ryu with nose mod (NS-B, 2013)

Peroth head first. These bunch of photos are for proportions, the resin match ones (more accurate on my screen) will come later :) I kind of only had the head on the body without pulling the S hook on properly because my hands would have died...so I don't know about head mobility and such.

He looks quite good actually.

And with a wig. Definitely do-able for proportions.


Just a closer photo of head to shoulders proportion.


Okay, now for resin match. My Peroth is blushed with a lot of pinks, so he seems to match, but the actual Nobility resin doesn't really. You can see it in the photo below. The back of his head is clearly paler, and he is also a tinge yellower than Akagi NS, but as I said, my Peroth has A LOT of blushing (mostly in pink and brown tones), so he looks okay on the Akagi body.


Just to show that my Peroth looks rather okay on the body because of his blushing, but there are areas on his face with less blush (Oh really? Is there? Trust me there is, like the shiny part of his nose bridge) that can be seen to be paler.


So my conclusion is, it's definitely a good body proportion wise, but resin match wise Peroth would need quite a bit of blushing to match the Akagi body. Too bad I need my Peroth on a shorter body...

Next is my Migidoll Cynical Ryu. His nose is modded but that shouldn't affect things too much. Anyway, I thought he looks good on the body too. Definitely nice proportions.


And a wig. Not his usual lol, cos I was lazy to get that from my room.


And for resin comparison, I think the 2 are quite close in real life, but Migi NS-B is a tinge yellower. I don't really see that in real life though it might also be because he has a faceup.


Because his neck does appear a bit yellower and uhh, slightly greyer? But I don't think it's too big an issue especially with a normal faceup that has reds/pinks/beige in it.


And I do like how he looks on it. It's a close enough match :)


So yay, the Migidoll NS-B works too.

Hope that helps someone decide on their hybrids.

[edit: here's the headcap comparison from my box opening, where you can see all the resin mentioned together, plus Leeke.

Migidoll, Luts and Nobility NS comparisons and head swaps

Note: Copied from my personal blog since I posted this there before I made this doll blog :) I'm trying to put all the resin match/proportions stuff together, and there's a tag for that as well ^^

NS resin comparison plus head swaps

I got down to doing this, but the photos aren't that great, so please read what I write rather than just rely on the photos for resin match. Proportion wise, the photos are okay, even though my room is kind of too small for me to do a proper front view.

The heads: Migi Jina (Volks NS '09), Migi Miho (New Migi NS '12 *This was back when Migi stopped their NS-A/NS-B), SDF Bliss (Luts real skin, the more yellow kind '07)
The body: Nobility Emotional boy body (Supposed to match Volks NS '12)

*

Jina head on the body. Proportions are good, resin match is okay in real life, but the body photographs more pink, so overall the head looks yellower in photos. But in real life, the resin match is the best for my Jina head out of the 3 heads.


The only problem is that his neck hole is kind of small for the neck. This is the natural pose his head goes to if I don't yank it. It's okay if he's slouching (neck's aren't supposed to be straight, so I make him slouch, and his head, though in this position would then look like it's looking straight at you), but weird if you make him stand straight.


To make his head like this, there's some small gap between the head and neck which you can't see unless you take out his headcap and peer from the inside. The problem is that because of this gap, his head doesn't want to stay like this and tends to snap back to the way it is in the photo before.

Miho head on the body. Proportions are good. His neck hole is bigger so the head sits better on the body. Resin match in real life: the head is pinker, and lighter than the body. Resin match in photos: the body is pinker and lighter than the head. Basically he photographs with the resin mismatch, but opposite in photos than in real life (if you understand what I mean?). It isn't terribly obvious, but if you're picky about this, then you won't want to put a new Migi NS head on a new Nobility body.


In real life, the head is the shade of colour of the body in this photo, and the body is the shade of the head. Yes, it's confusing. I don't know why but the body photographs lighter than in real life.


His head naturally sits like this, which is better than my Jina head. Notice the gap in the head and neck. I think it's normal if you want some range of neck movement? He can turn his head better than Jina.

Bliss on the body. This is probably the only one where the resin match in photos and real life is about the same (i.e. head is yellower than body). But then again, luts realskin changes colour very often, and I have a old head (circa 07) so it's the yellower kind. Proportions are good, but you can notice his neck appears shorter than when the Migi heads are on it. SDF Bliss head has a deeper neck hole so something.


His head is still rather big compared to the Migi heads but I rather like that the neck is shorter. (I'm thinking if I should get Dennis a Nobility body as well, cos I really like how he looks on it.)


His neck hole is probably the biggest cos his head can tilt forwards, backwards and anywhere (pretty much). Probably to do with the fact that the neck hole is deeper?

And a last photo of all the resin together.
Resin match in real life: Bliss head is the yellowest, then Jina, then the body, then Miho
Resin match is photos: Bliss is still yellowest, then Jina, then Miho, than the body.
Basically Volks NS Jina and Volks NS Nobility body matches in real life but not in photos. Everything else doesn't match perfectly (maybe 85-90%).

And I forgot to add this yesterday, but here's a height comparison of Nat, Dennis and Gabby:

Left to right: Jina on Nobility body, Bliss on AA body, Lishe on delf type 3 body

Elfdoll, Supia, Leeke and Little Monica NS comparison

Since I took the photos for the Leeke photo reference thread on doa, I decided to put the pictures here too :)

Heads: Elfdoll Vivien (NS, Nov 2012) and Leeke Khal (NS, Jul 2012)
Bodies: Supia Old body (NS, Unknown date) and Little Monica type A (NS, May 2012)


Elfdoll NS is darker than Leeke NS. Since Tiyana was still on her Supia body, it got into the comparison too, and lo and behold, it looks like it can match Leeke NS. o.O Because I've no idea when the Supia body I have was made, I had to use the heeled feet I recently got for comparison. Hence the next photo which is weird lol. (I was holding Tiyana sideways, haha)


Here the difference between the older and new Supia isn't too obvious but the older one has definitely yellowed. I would say the yellowed Supia is slightly yellower than Leeke but the new Supia is slightly pinker. But both looks pretty close...so for the fun of it I put my Khal head on the Supia body 8D


Without a wig. I guess he still looks okayish? It's probably because Supia's old body has a neck that is quite thick, just a bit thinner than the Little Monica boy body beside. :>


With a wig he looks a bit bobble-headed, but fatter clothes would probably help, if anyone ever considers this hybrid. Zeke (my Khal) isn't too pleased with that idea hahaha.

P.S. Whoops I didn't notice the funny ring finger sticking out on my boy. :<

Migi, Little Monica, Leeke NS resin match

Just a quick picture. My Migi and Little Monica NS go pretty well together (you can see a minor difference under natural light but hardly any under artificial light), but Leeke is like...a bit too light and pinker.

And since I realise that my dolls kind of all into either 1 of the below 3 height ranges, I decided to grab the 3 most convenienetly located dolls to snap a quick photo of "height" comparison. They're all clothed and wigged so it's not that easy to tell but I wanted to show what they'll look like side by side in normal photos. :)



Tiyana's in heels so she's taller than Gabby but she's actually a bit shorter. Gabby and Jack are probably the same height (Jack is shorter I think). All the floating heads who share the twin's LM bodies are currently that height (lol), and Nat on his Nobility body is about the same height as the LM ones.

In ascending height (I think?):
1. Tiyana (Elfdoll Vivien, Supia old body) ~ 58cm
2. Jack (Zaoll Muse, Fdoll body) ~60cm
3. Gabby (CP Lishe SS, Delf type 3 body) ~ 60cm
4. Dennis (SDF Bliss, Volks SD13 body) ~61cm?
5. Nat (Migi Jina, Nobility Emotional body) ~63cm
6. Hew and Sion (Migi Mihos, Little Monica bodies) ~63cm

And that's all the ones I have who actually have bodies :/ 7 dolls + 4 heads blehh. So many floating heads.

Leeke heads on Little Monica type B body (all NS)

Heads: Leeke Khal, Leeke Mihael NS (2012)
Body: Little Monica type B NS (2012)

Resin is of the same darkness, but Leeke is pink based, LM is yellow based, so it doesn't really match that well. My camera picks up the pink/red of the heads quite a lot, so the photos here are colour-edited.


First we have Khal+LM type B body. He looks a bit bobble head-ed which is more obvious with clothes. But that's just my opinion. Some people might think he's fine. I'm just too used to seeing 9" heads (my Mihos) instead of 10" on this body.


Lowest the head holds without kips/sueding. Can actually be adjusted to tilt lower but snaps back to this position once I let go. Might be better with kips/sueding.


Most accurate to real life (on my monitor) in terms of resin colour. Also highest head can tilt without kips/sueding. As with the lowest, this is NOT the highest possible, just that I didn't kip/suede it.


Mihael head on the body. He matches a bit better than Khal because he's less pink, and also because his faceup is yellower? I think. I think the body isn't big enough for him but oh well, it's not his anyway. :|


Most accurate colour for resin match (on my monitor).

Zaoll Muse head on different bodies

Just a bunch of photos I have lying in my computer. They're all kind of unfocused, but you don't need super sharp photos for proportions, do you? :| Anyway, Jack is on the fdoll body (2nd photo). Since the Muse head I have has been painted to match Volks NS, the photos are all for proportions and not resin match. Dollmore resin is pinker than Leeke...so basically it doesn't match anything I have at home.

Muse head on delf type 3 body (Gabby's body, lol)

I actually did this before I decided to buy the fdoll body since I know fdoll are just slightly thinner than delfs, so I figured it'll be a good gauge.

Muse head on Fdoll body.

Muse head on Nobility Emotional body (which is just too big for him) XD
