Dollfie Bust
Sorry - got no adult filter yet so please look away if you are not good at pretending to be over 18.
More pics of Ryomo and her painted pupils at Mattari's.
All 4 of my daughters have asked me to paint their pupils which I have reluctantly done but was wondering if any of you have painted in your daughters pupils and if not why not and if so why so? ^^;

I have not. Why? Because my painting skills are not very good ^^;
Else I probably would ^^;;;
Very sweet! Both her hairdo and pupils O_O!!
That is a DDDy body?
Doctor
It's a regular body with L bust.
Thanks. Just a standart L-bust, eh? Might have to pick up one for Sasara in that case~

I'm pretty sure it's a DDdy body with a customized standard L bust. I know this person's blog and he makes tons of body part customization. (noticed how this Ryomou has both eyes open, he showed how he opened up the closed eye on his blog, pretty cool). I just went to re-check this post on his blog and he wrote "ＤＤｄｙの下半身とＤＤⅡＬ胸" so that confirms my guess too.

Yup it's a DDdy but with a standard DD-L bust
I don't know if it's ok for me to post the link of the person's blog here? But that's what he wrote (in japanese) on his blog.
Please do!

Instant click this post when I visit figure.fm....haha, guess there's a magnet to this kind of title.
I do not have a Dollfie, but I would have, I will paint the pupils. That is, unless there's no suitable markers (type, colour, brand) like you used.

That is interesting to know. I wonder why they made that decision, not that it really affects anything.

I have not painted any nipples on any of my dolls. In my opinion it is unnecessary, I don't look at or display my dolls naked and I don't get any kind of sexual or perverted pleasures from them. Also its a hassle because if you don't coat the bust properly then it could stain, which may effect future resale value. Also it is a process that eventually needs removing and repeating because it will chip and wear away over time, so will need redoing.
The main thing that annoys me about it is that most people do it under the excuse of 'making it look more realistic'. But then they go and make the nipples an unrealistic colour. Most real girls don't have bright pink or peachy nipples. It's such a pet peeve of mine!

I don't think I would ever sell my dollfie, but never really considered the damage / maintenance aspect of doing it.

I've seen horrible things done to dolls. Some people use felt tips, marker pens and highlighters on the dolls, in most cases this will stain the doll to the point of no return, but in some cases it has been known to physically damage the doll too. Also I've seen people use cheap, poor quality paints which can also have unwanted results. Also some people use actual woman's make up on doll, real make up you buy from beauty stores. This is a big BIG no no.
For anyone intending to do any sort of painting on your dolls, you should first use a clear coat of Mr Super Clear flat to protect the doll, then use high quality trusted products for painting. For details on the eyes, water colour pencils and acrylic paints are ideal. For adding details like blush, shading and nipples, use soft pastels, shave them with a blade, then use a soft brush to gently apply it. It will apply in a similar way to a woman applying powdered make up.

I have read that real make up is a no no but wondered why? Does it also stain the doll or something worse?
Unemployed Dollfie enthusiast

I've heard that it can cause discolouration and staining. I saw a picture once where the doll had horrible oily looking patches on its eyes because someone used real make up on it =( I think it's worse in the case of resin dolls, but it's probably just best to avoid it full stop imo.

Too bad the dollfie vinyl is so delicate o_o; thanks for the warning! if you ever come across that image again I'd be curious to see it ^^;/

real make up tends to have oils in them which can stain the doll's resin or vinyl.

I don't plan on painting the pupils, I think the most I will ever go is to take the same kind of pics I did for Miss Dollfie entries, which I don't see the pupils anyway.

Nice curves.
I'm not very up-to-date with Dolfies, mainly because I don't own any myself.
But I love the eyes on that one :o

I was kinda thinking the same thing. Her pupils are too high up.

No I don't paint those on my girls as I prefer them not showing thru the clothing ^^;
Doctor
Did not paint any pupils on any of my doll's bust, but might in the future on some of them, when i'll get good at painting anything with an airbrush... I'd rather try to make nicer nipples on my stained M bust, since this bust is pretty nipple-less. I'd be afraid of staining not only the doll, but also her clothes, i'd only paint anything or sculpt nipples if i'm sure it won't damage anything.
I'm quite curious about Yoko's Dynamite body being nipple-less. Though the mold for Dynamite bust would be quite generic, didn't though they'd made a custom one for Yoko.

Mention it twice in fact. Certainly interesting to know, but even if she is sans pupils she's still awesome =D

I don't really care for nipples on dolls, but if I had a doll with nipples then I definitely wouldn't paint them... it just seems a little... I don't know, awkward? haha.
Also, as I just started really keeping with DC and figure.fm recently I hadn't really noticed it until now, but... am I the only one kind of bugged by the referencing boobs as "eyes" and nipples as "pupils"??? I just... don't get it, I guess.

Self-censoring. Personally, I actually don't mind referring to it that way.
I don't know Danny's reason for it, but to me makes sense. Most male's eyes will go to a girls chest (sorry ladies ^^;) so...yeah...and eyes have to have pupils. I guess it just makes sense to me thinking about it that way ^^;;;

I think I heard Danny mention something with it having to do with Google Analytics.

Yup. It indeed has to do with Google. Certain words cause Google to ignore/push it further down the search list, I think. Might also cause Google Adsense and the like to ban your site, though I'm no longer clear on the details. It's one of the older DC posts.

"Most male's eyes will go to a girls chest" -- Yeahh, that's probably why it bothers me, haha. I'm one of those awful girls who gets all ~*righteous anger*~ over guys looking at a girl's chest instead of her face. >>;;
Doctor
Boys check both (face and lower eyes), the thing is they are definitely drawn to the lower eyes by the Force, nothing they can do about it. But rest assured, they do look at the face ;).

Juicy is right.. Its nature that makes us do it.. Not any conscious thing. We literally just look, And a good percentage of the time.. We usually have absolutely no opinion on what we see.
And I think I can fairly honestly say, Guys unconsciously do the same thing to other guys. Its a sizing up sort of thing in that regard, but for women its an unconscious reaction to many generations of humans needing to breed.

Odd. Doesn't Ryoumo usually keep her right eye closed during photoshoots?
Other than that, quite precise paintwork there, DC. Just check the clothes they wear in case some paint came off.

I didn't paint any of their "pupils" since I don't really care much. I find it interesting how others (I guess mostly male owners) make theirs look very realistic, but I always display and take pictures of my daughters when they are clothed. The only time I see the "pupils" is when I'm changing clothes. Before I'd paint the pupils I would give them a manucure and a pedicure. But considering the numbers I have, and the extra hand sets, it would be too time consuming so I don't bother hehe.

Don't think I would. Wud never have her naked, so not much point, AND I'd be petrified of doing it wrong... getting paint on another part of her lol.
