Chibi Unoa on Unoa 1.5 body, 5Stardoll Star10 body

Excuse the graininess of the photo, I only have my phone camera right now...

I took some photos of my Chibi Unoa faceplates on the bodies I have to see the fit, and thought I'll share them.

 L to R:
1. Chibi Lilin Roar (fresh skin) on Unoa 1.5 body (fairyskin) with Buff headback (WS)
2. Chibi Lilin Roar (fresh skin) on 5stardoll Star10 body (normal skin, pale and looks rather similar to fairyskin) with Buff headback (WS)
3. Chibi Lilin Sleeping mod (fairyskin) on 5stardoll Star10 body (normal skin) with Buff headback (WS)
4. Same as 3 with a wig.

 For some reason the Roar face looks okay on the 30cm 5stardoll body although the Sleeping face does not... In other words, I'm not terribly sure what body my Roar faceplate should get. Pebbles (the modded sleeping faceplate) is already on the Unoa 1.5 body, and she looks good on it. I realise I don't have a photo of that, but she does. Haha. Yeah. But the Roar face, which I've not named, I'm not so sure.

I was going to just go with a Chibi Unoa body at first but not only is it more expensive than other options, I would most likely have to buy a full doll for the body. And I'm afraid I won't want to sell the extra faceplate, haha.

But clothing wise I think yosd/slim minis have more options than the Chibi Unoa, which is my main concern. I'm not as fond of the Roar head on a slim mini body. She looks too tall and not like a young child. So I was thinking of yosd bodies but their bodies are a tad small for her. Even the Star10 body doesn't look like it'll be my best bet. I'm leaning towards Narsha bodies but then I'll have to find someone for the head.

Hybrids for non-male, non-SD sized dolls are hard to do for me, haha. I know a bit more about male SD hybrids lol. (I have so many of them XD)

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 :)

Leeke Mihael head on Akagidoll 66cm body

Excuse the phone photos, I left my camera in my hostel ._.

Anyway, here's Kristolf, my Mihael on the Akagidoll 66cm body for proportions. I feel like he looks less bobbleheaded in real life. It might be the sloppy shoulders, or maybe Mihael just has features that photograph bigger than they look in real life? I'm not too sure. He looks better with a wig, and the neck looks kind of too thin here (which I guess it is, since it's like 10.5cm?) but it's not that bad in real life. I thought he looks pretty decent but the photos don't seem to show that...also, resin match is pretty good. (Everything is NS.)

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

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

Little Monica Type A and B body comparison

Anyway, that took me a bit longer than expected to do, cos it's rather rainy these few days.

I've not taken any decent photos of Hew with his new body yet though. :/
