The Doll Forum

Memory Foam is here, now the back massage.
Same as before, clean then oil.



The new lamp I used this time isn't really bad. Photo appears darker than actual.
after the oil soak, powder again, then dress her up next time!

Wish I bought memory foam first, before doll arrival. There is some mark on the butt already. It should go away over time.

Very nice

Forty, sincerely thank you for all of the pictures and information. This is a great thread.

Overnight, the oil soaked in the back, so after powder, it's time to finish up.
First, Here is the equipment for a poorman's $20 lighting effect:

From top->down, it's weak, medium and strong in order.
These lamps don't diffuse far enough, so the result would be rather poor, but good enough to make the photo color match the actual doll. The next photo usess the simplest Strong lighting on the back, weak ones on the front settings:

This is as far as we can go. the lamps are too small to make full body shots. From her hair, you can see how the biggest lamp light her up from top-back of her.

For the rest of the photo I won't adjust the position, so those lighting may not be correct.

Next, some old cloth from another doll. the other doll was molded after a real Japanese girl, so even though she is short and slim, the sizes are more realistic. It doesn't fit to well on 166C, as she has bigger boobs, while being much more slim beyond reality:

This is the smallest tight I found long time ago, fits the japanese doll, but still too wide for this one. Length is ok.

The next is the smallest shoe (size 6) from target

Not really going to work. I measured her today, the longest length from heel to toe is indeed 20cm. Maybe I'll try get some size 5 to fit her. Size 5 would still be big, but better this one.

Then the cloth




The top cannot cover the boobs, while the strings are too loose. This is good enough for now, and i'll have to start shopping to aim for super slim ones.

Cheese and rice that's a good head.....

Final Comparison:

She looks nice! You cant beat some nice stockings to spice things up!

The US5 shoes will still be a bit big, but depending on the style they may look OK.

This is my 166C wearing the black heels in a US5:



They are quite loose, but do seem to stay on when I pose her.

She has such a beautiful face!

A women's size 4.5 works best if you can find them. Danae has a pair we found on Amazon. Marion is a very sexy gal, congrats!

So true!

Some great shots of her forty, I like the lamp setup you have, whatever does the trick mate, I might have to use your method meself ,proper lighting is always an issue for us amateur home photographers and what a great choice in eyes, they suit her well, really brings out her beauty and adds to her realism.

I know if I go choose eye/wig and whatever, I will mess up, because it's hard to imagine what she would look like with different choices. I simply chose everything "same as picture" when ordering

In the future, I'll probably always use "same as picture" option.
