La Légende de Temps - Edria

[Splynterhayde]

In return for your excellent information Cloudedmind, I will spare you your soul.

[derilan85]

Much thanks for the info, I can't wait to order this head as well!

*chuckles* Thanks! I really do kind of need it for other things.

[Splynterhayde]

What could pssobily be more important than giving it to me?- oh wait, no, I know. The dolls get it first, right!

But in all seriousness, thanks so much for the additional stuff. I've been searching through it every few hours obsessively to admire the pretty head.

Anyone else hoping to make Edria a boy? I just don't see Edria as a girl at all...
unfortunately not realizing the "she" word wasn't a mistake and not knowing
the neck measurements I already had Edria planned out on a Dollshe Rythmos
body. My plans are crushed On the bright side I won't be as broke.

[Cloudedmind]

I think a few other people wanted to make her a boy, but she has a small neck hole for a guy doll so you'd either have to go with a smaller male body or mod the neck. And I personally think she looks very much like a girl. A rather calculating one if I do say so myself.

And yes I must save my soul for my dolls. xD

I have an Fdoll body on the way. I'm picking it up from the post office today. If it doesn't work, I'll but a female body and modify it, or something. I'm not so bothered. I could also modify the neck hole, but depending on how long the neck is or how naturally the head will sit on the body in the first place. I remember Nanuri 2007 was a small head, and some complained that it looked strange on a male body (the same for SD13 Kohya/Tohya, actually, as they sat very high on SD13 boy bodies), but it might not bother me so much!

Are you sure I can't buy it from you? I'll pay a high price! ;D

[Marishka]

Where did you find the info about her neck? LLT said that it would be no problem to put her on a male body, but... :<

[I_DekuPhantomme]

;A; Ohgod she's beautiful. Want. I almost want her for a character, but she'd have to be twins with the one I've got already. xD; D'oh. ;A; mahhhh want more pictures ahhh.

[Tsukasa]

I can see Edria as a female doll and I hope she will stay she (i.e. smaller neck to fit girls' bodies). I feel, there are a plenty of boy's heads everywhere. A lot of people make a 'boy' from every head regardless how its features are [sure, it's up to the owner so none of my business & I'll be glad to see them around even as boys], but I really do want more realistic girls and women for being girls and woman. I'd like my bjd group is balanced and has both genders.


Not checked LLT site for a while, have they mentioned anywhere if Edria is going to be time limited [<-- hoping for this for more relaxed ordering] or quantity limited?

The only male body I have at the moment is the new style 70cm from dollzone. That body does actually have a small neck (9.5cm) for being so tall. So I'll probably try her head on it just for laughs. Who knows it may actually work. ;P

And I think I'll pass. I really do need it for later.

And Tsukasa I just checked the site and don't see anything new. With the last Roderich sale they did both time and quantity limited. The may do the same with Edria.

[St. James]

I guess I can see Edria as a boy in a close-up like this

but not so much in a shot like this

I don't recognize the girl body Julia used, but she certainly did give her some awesome full body tattoos!

[Splynterhayde]

Wheeeere did you find those photos? I'm dying! I have to have this head, I will die for it! Look at that level of detail! Lovely!

To both Tsukasa and Cloudedmind: The reason why I'm so attracted to this head as a male is because, as a person who is drawn to realistic headsculpts, it is very hard to find realism in many dolls. When men are realistic, they tend to have a very similar face shape (like Soom Monzo, Iplehouse Arvid or Luo), or a very similar expression (like Roderich, or Williams). It's true that most heads out there are made into males, regardless of being originally 'female' sculpts or not, but that could also be because the owner can not find the features he/she desires in a male faced doll. Edria has fine features, a strong brow, a heart shaped face...like an evolved Luts doll, really, if you were to take Lishe or El and make them more realistic. I've been looking for a sleeping looking, thick lipped boy forever, who looks slightly more mature than CP dolls, but still comes in a 58cm-ish size.

So, though I can see Edria as a girl, most definitely, I'm just so glad I finally found a boy who fits my picky criteria!

[Tsukasa]

@Splynterhayde: That's fine and I'm sure you will have a nice doll be it a girl or a boy. And different styles are always great. It's just I'm glad that she is primarily a girl, because I don't need more male dolls. I feel my SD sized group is very unbalanced and I am definitely not an 'only male dolls' person.

I like the second photo, she looks very interesting there. The tattoo indeed is something to notice.

[Marishka]

Actually, I was in love with this head until I saw more pics - profile is amazing, true that, but looking closely she reminds me of christian marble figures... which may be interesting, but is somehow a turn off for me XD Everytime I look at this photo with female body I see some kind of a Saint, not a doll to play with :< That's why I'd never ever make a girl out of it (I don't like girls okay, but that's another thing ) , I still think a boy could be pretty interesting, maybe even 'woah cool' but it's kind of risky.

And btw info for you:

"Dear Divane :

hi! ^3^
Edria can also match with male body (like ssdf - neck size 10.5cm, SD13boy body or SD17boy body)


Regards

It seems that normal boy body neck 10,5 cm will match this head.

[Splynterhayde]

Oh! I hope the head isn't too big! I can always try, though!

Speaking of which, Edria has been released, and I've ordered mine! Huzzah!

I'm practically running around screaming with my head cut off!

I'm so excited!

[Kim]

Do the time period heads from LLT actually stay open for the entire order time or are they prone to closing early?

I want to snag a head because I find it interesting and like the profile a lot for a character I've been debating on making whose first choice in sculpt is simply out of my budget. SD16 Williams girl will forever be a pipe dream, but Edria might work. The face reads masculine to me, which is what I want since the character is a very handsome, mannish woman.

[derilan85]

I just paid for my head as well, I do have a body/victim here for her already........another personality for my female I have here now

[Splynterhayde]

Kim, I think the last time they held an ordering period, it was closed early, even considering the limited quantities. This was for Vampire Vincent, I believe, but I have no reason to doubt that they'd do it again in Edria's case.

I think Edria is an excellent alternative to Willians. The eyes, save for the fact that Edria's are sleepier, still have very similar shapes to them, and both have hawkish expressions. Edria's is softer, but if you still want the same edge to her face, you can probably do that with a little bit of modding (it could be the sleepy eyes doing it) or with just a particular kind of face-up! I also think the sculpt is fairly masculine, for a female head. Very good for a handsome woman.

edit:

derilan85: Congratulations! I think she's going to be a stunning addition to your collection! I'm so excited to see how many will be ordered! Gathering from Edria's reception thus far, I have high prospects for her. Well, him, in my case. I've been looking for a delicate, but masculine, sleepy eyed boy forever!

[derilan85]

I'm glad since this is my first head from them, contemplating on who to do the faceup........maybe and maybe I will try. I just need to find some good pastels and watercolor pencils not made of a oily base.
