Re: The Tan skin tone photos vs actual real life.
The whole dark sexy vibe of this doll really got me hooked.
Its TAN of course.
I'm just trying to picture how dark it would actually look once I receive her.
But if I request the Vendor to change it to a medium tone, it would really detract from the whole look I was going for in the first place.
Sigh...why is life so difficult????

Not light tan or dark tan, just tan.
And as you can see, she will look different depending on the ambient light.

Re: The Tan skin tone photos vs actual real life.
The medium tone is a perfect in between and powdering will alter the shade of skin tone in most cases the powder starts to darken the skin over time unless your constantly washing her which I wouldn't advise.
All my Irontech gals as well as my YL and WM girls have caucasian medium tone skin and I love it.
Irontech started calling this skin type tan for whatever reason adding their actual tan colors as light brown and brown
I think they really want to be different in every way lol
Love me the Irontech dolls for sure.
As for the WM 166 C cup...
Man do I wish she had A cup tits cause that would be so perfect on that doll body.
Her tits dont fit the body type at all.

Re: The Tan skin tone photos vs actual real life.
As for the different WM skin tones, do not worry. A WM tan is not _that_ dark, it’s like someone that has been in the sun and gotten a tan, and as many have said you can manipulate the colour a lot with light. A doll in medium is still tan in my book (I live in the arctic, where pale means really pale), and a lovely compromise that works with everything.
The reasons why I choose tan on mine is a) I love tan skin, b) I already have a multitude of heads, all in tan and c) I find tan to be the most versatile to photograph.

Not the "other dolls" plural - I'm pretty sure he is saying those are all pics of the exact same doll! That is why in the end I made up my mind which skin tone to pick based almost more on the descriptions I read, and less on looking at pictures.Dolllover2019 wrote:Woow..

and all of those pics except for the black curtain one are nothing but midday sunlight coming through the window.
and I take pics with my iphone, so it's on automatic. and no photoshop.
light bouncing off of a pink blanket is what I think caused the dark one on the right.
