Discussion for Leekeworld boys

[kiradyn_rhiode]

Kiro>> Have you tried using socks? They work well both for filling up extra space in the shoe/boot, as well as keeping the feet clean, since some shoes have adhesive residue and other icky things stuck inside. O_o (Like one pair of boots that I have, and I really should go wipe my boy's feet clean. =__=;;; ) You don't have to buy real doll-socks. You can make your own out of any stretchy material, or get some infant (like, NEWBORN baby) socks and add a few stitches to make them smaller and fit snugly. Some places also sell little knitted sock-shaped tubes for protecting slender MP3-players. I use those too, especially with dress-shoes-type footwear for my SD-sized boys, because they're proportionally correct for standard work socks. 8D

Kiro>> Have you tried using socks?

That's the problem, for I have. But even with those cotton socks (tho they're not so very thik) the shoes are too big. T__T

Mathurine: They don't. Why can't it be easier!? But at least I now have my body, so I can avoid these problems from now on...

[kiradyn_rhiode]

Drats. D: I don't suppose you're able to like, lace them tighter or something? My LUTS boots, I can actually pull my boys' feet out of them without even unzipping them first. XDDDD

[Cyanic]

Kiro - What's the feet lenght of the Real-Long body? Could you measure it?

oh, and how does it post?

I'm deciding very hard now, whether to get this body or not.

[Kiro]

kiradyn_rhiode: I have tied them as tight as the laces give away, and fortunately, they don't drop of now. Still, it's a bit annoying...

Cyanic: The body poses guite well. It can't do some poses, like crouching without little difficulties (the ancle joint will come out), but otherwice it's good. I needed to tighten the stiringing when it came, but that's it. Now he stands like a rock in allmost every pose I set him.
The feet lenght is 7,5cm. ( the shoes I have are 9,5 ).
BTW, what is your other candidate? Dollzone 65cm?

[Smaug]

WoW, Kiro only 7.5cm? That's tiny! My Leeke Gentle boy body had 8cm feet...what on earth did Leeke think when they made his feet even smaller?! I think you'll have a hard time finding shoes...this 7.5cm is too big for girl shoes, but too small for boy shoes...

(just for fun...my new girl doll's feet are 7.5cm, too...)

[Kiro]

Yeah, Smaug, I know...
I was suprised at the result too...
Oh, Leeke, what were you thinking!?! Now I'll be stuck with way too big feet for eternity. (Or until I found less problematic body for him=not likely).

Allso, I have wig problem with him. He's Romeo, so quite big head there. The wigs he have now (two leeke wigs) make his head look big.
So, does anyone know where might I have black long fur wig in 9-10inch, or is comissioning the only opinion for me.
Thanks for your time. (By long I mean under chin line or into the shoulders).

[Galileo]

They still havent updated the measurements?? That's really not so "soon" lol. Luckily we have kiro~

[Mathurine]

*applauds* Yay for Kiro!

Any time I get measurements for the real long body I write them down on a special page at the back of my notebook so if you want to give out some more measurements, I'll get my pen ready.

[Cyanic]

Kiro - I have the Gentle body, but I can't go with the non-jointed body so I would like to change. I was looking at the SDF until I see the Real-Long body, I prefer the appearance of Leeke's body.

The Gentle body has the feet length also 7.5 cm. From the photos I guess the feet are the same.


(PS - I've just noticed that you're from Germany when you use , instead of . :p)

[Kiro]

Thanks. I'm glad to be help.
Mathurine: What measurements might you want? Just throw, I have tape measure ready.
Cyanic: Instead of what? I'm actully Finish, but living in Germany for now.

[equine-aurora]

kiro I believe she's referring to the way Germans use commas instead of a decimal point. You know like 2.5 becomes 2,5 in Germany. (Hallo, ich lerne Deutsch im die klassenzimmer. And that whole comma instead of decimal has taken some getting used to)

[Mathurine]

Kiro can I have Chest, Waist, Hips and Length of Leg please? I think I have the chest measurement right but not sure so would like to confirm that. Leg length and waist I don't have at all so I can't order trousers for my boy!

I'm hoping to get my money at the end of November for my boy but it's occurred to me that if I order him at that time it might get held up with Christmas. Should I wait until the New Year or just order him anyway?

[Kiro]

Oh, thanks equine-aurora, I didn' realize that.

Mathurine: I tought I had posted them before...
Any how, here they are:
Circumfence
of chest:25cm
of waist: 20,5cm
of hips:25,5cm
Lenght from hips to ankle:35cm
I hope that is what you wanted... Please correct me if I was mistaken.
I'd order him anyhow. I ordered my Romeo head 27th of December about a year ago, and he got here about month later...

[Mathurine]

Thanks Kiro that's perfect! Thanks for the help with ordering too. Hopefully I should get Lionel before Christmas day then.

[Kiro]

Hey, no prob. And good luck with your Lionel.
I'll be waiting pictures around the Christmas, then.

[equine-aurora]

no problem kiro happy to help clarify things.

[Mathurine]

Well my Lionel's striped shirt is on the way and his wig arrived this morning! It's all so exciting! I can't wait until my pay arrives in November.

[almaxaquotal]

Yay I just finished paying off the Leeke Patrick head I bought on the MP Can't wait to see him in person... now its decisions on the body...! I'm considering the Dollzone 65cm body and just wondering if anybody has resin match info?

[Kiro]

Congratulations, almaxaquotal. Give us some pictures of him when he arrives, please.

As for Dollzone body I think thessalyrose said that normal pink should be good enought match. I havn't seen pictures, tought.
Maybe you should search from Leeke Resin Matches or Resin Color Comparisons.

Mathurine: Can't wait the pictures of your boy!
