meltychoco_BJD Posted January 10 (edited) I've been looking at various limited DD to see if any head sculpts would suit certain OCs of mine and DDS Alice Kuonji is a near-perfect fit for one of them, but she's SWS and seems hard to find (only 3 listings on Mandarake, all sold out and significantly more expensive than her retail price). Are there any flesh sculpts (limited, standard, anything released on DD/DDS) that looks similar to Alice? I'm looking for sculpt similarity, not faceup similarity. There's a front-facing photo (from the one Mandarake listing) of DDS Alice at the bottom of the post with her default faceup. There's also this thread with pictures of customized Alice Kuonjis. Key points I'm looking for: - generally similar mouth shape and jaw shape (not too round of a chin) - similar eye hole shape (not too big or round, not way smaller) - If it looks similar to DDS Takina that also works, as I plan to make Takina into another OC who would be this OC's sister. Personally I felt DDS Alice Kuonji could work as like a sterner sister version of the Takina sculpt! - must be flesh skin (unless anyone knows whether blushing SWS to match flesh is possible/reasonable?)

Thespian Posted January 10 Personally, I find DDH-24 to have similar sculpt features to Alice. The good news is that it comes in semi-white, flesh, and tan, so whichever most strikes your fancy. The downside is that DDH-24 is a Dream Choice/D'Coord exclusive, so you'd have to go through a proxy or wait for one to come up secondhand, though she'll likely be way less pricey than Alice. 1 Kiyomi DDS DDH-06 🧡 Miyuki DDS DDH-06 🧡 Emiko DDS Mariko Summer Festival 🧡 Kanade DDDy DDH-07 🧡 Honoka DD DDH-09 🧡 Priyanka DDS Anthy Himemiya 🧡 Himena DDDy Sasara Kusugawa 🧡 Unnamed DD Sakura Miku Any pronouns are fine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh now that I look at it they do seem quite similar, idk how I missed that since I've looked through the dream choice sculpts a lot for ideas. Thanks for the rec! This definitely seems like the easiest option rather than getting a different limited doll, so I'll keep it in mind. ☆⋅⋆ ───FIND ME ON─── ⋆⋅☆ DoA | Twitter | Instagram ☆⋅⋆ ────── ⋆⋅☆ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yumeiro Posted January 10 Is resin out of the question? SQlab Haruka is pretty spot on, in my opinion, otherwise. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess it depends on how difficult it is to put the head on a DDS body and if the resin matches DD flesh? I might also worry about the resin yellowing faster than the vinyl since vinyl seems pretty colour stable in comparison to resin from what I've seen. The sculpt does look pretty close so I'd definitely consider it if a resin head on vinyl body is possible with this company though! ☆⋅⋆ ───FIND ME ON─── ⋆⋅☆ DoA | Twitter | Instagram ☆⋅⋆ ────── ⋆⋅☆ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tira Posted January 11 I think DDH-07 looks the most similar to Alice in terms of eye and overall face shape. DDH-24 is also similar, especially in terms of mouth shape, but the jawline is different. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Yes the yellowing will be an issue...) But they offer their heads in DD flesh, and fit is not an issue - they're made to be put on DDs after all. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't have considered it at first but looking at some pictures now I can really see the resemblance, I think it could work. I did notice the softer jawline of DDH-24, too, but I was kinda neutral to it. Looking at it now, I think I prefer 07 as well, especially in this picture.

Oh that's really interesting! I feel like the yellowing difference would bother me a lot, but it's cool that there's resin heads made for DD bodies. ☆⋅⋆ ───FIND ME ON─── ⋆⋅☆ DoA | Twitter | Instagram ☆⋅⋆ ────── ⋆⋅☆ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
