I did not find it on DS website.

Thanks
Not sure, the name of this head for the market outside Japan is Ying.
Used to be on their 145cm compatibile head list, but not anymore, anyway the selection for Ying head does show up when you configure the doll order for a 145cm body.
I think the only way to know it for sure is to ask directly to DS...

Oh? She is the most beautiful of all the DS girls. I thought you got the memo! :wink:
I thought everyone got that memo. Looks like I will have to send it out again. :)

I know exactly what you mean. Xiaoli's expressions change and its mostly down to the eye position with respect to the viewing angle. Sometimes she looks playful, other times i get the distinct impression that she would rather I stop playing with her boobs now, thank you so very much Karrot.........

Yes - it's really extraordinary.

With my travels on Chloé's journey http://coverdoll.com/drupal/node/2189 I discovered this particularly. Without giving the game away, she got drunk. . . . and her attitude reflected the arrogance that one sees often in people who have imbibed too much . . .

So the doll can very much reflect emotion.

Chloé doesn't have movable eyes, so she succeeds even without a dimension open to her that Xiaoli enjoys.

Best wishes

Or just ask me :) Yes, Sakura/Ying is still available. Here are some photos with DS145 body: http://dollforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=242&t=64117. My favourite from this set is this one:

Here is Nena featuring a "Ying" 145 DS Head with LPink skin and Green/Blue eyes. Enjoy.

Btw, what kind of lighting are you guys using for your pictures? I could not get a clearer picture without having the light so bright it would blur the photo.
She looks amazing. The different colored eyes just adds to her attractiveness. Very creative and works.

My favourite portraits are these of Miah, at the moment. It's not because it's my doll.
Sakura is the most beautiful doll I've ever seen. I don't know if you also made this experience, but I can always see various facial expressions in Sakura. No matter which perspective you choose.
Imagination or not, I don't know, but you can see her personal attitudes directly in her face.

DS dolls are simply indescribable...
Your doll is really beautiful, if I had to choose a head for a 145sm, I would certainly go for a Sakura head (if that head suits the 145 body)
With blue eyes... So cute!

Thank you very much! I am always happy to meet people who like my Miah and the Sakura head.

I think every DS doll has her secret attitudes and beauty. Example: Interesting is haremlover's Chloe. She doesn't have movable eyes, but depending on how you take a photo or which perspective you choose, this doll can show beautiful expressions.

I don't want to bother you all and only spam a lot of portraits of my doll. ;)
But I found this pic very interesting and I would like to share it with you. Different perspective......and suddenly a different expression...... and only I can say is:

I never thought cuteness can be so beautiful...... :wink:

um.... I'm not feeling bothered....is anyone else? :thumbs_up:

I think that the more 'honest' shots we have of the various heads, the more people can see what they truly look like. I would never accuse DS or their vendors of dishonest advertising, but the more one can see these faces in the real world the more one can appreciate them.

As long as we stay true to Harem's original ideal of portraits and giving the DS Name for the head, I dont see there being an issue with posting multiple on-topic images.

Neri has a really great smile. Optional elf ears would be perfect!

Whilst Karrot and I don't indulge in much personal communication he and I often find ourselves singing the same tune.

No amount of favourite pics of favourite heads is spam here . . . Just label the heads. They all show incredible versatility and change with lighting, angle, focal length of lens and context and the more that we see of our toy ladies as we see them, rather than as professional photographers show them intended as to be seen, then the better. I should add here that DS really relish personal photos rather than other companies that perhaps put their products out to professionals to market. DS girls market themselves and don't have to be marketed so much.

Here's Neri, by the way

I love her sideways smile and upon going into the cupboard and finding her smile she always brings a smile to me.

Karrot's Xiaoli - Helen I believe, is another rather underappreciated lady but really wonderfully handled by her man.

Aah! Yes - I don't meet her very often Em..I...ly. I won't dare to call her by the wrong name again or she'll be wondering who it was I met last night. Erm. Some explanation will be demanded.

Em..I...ly is a be..a...uty.
