Narin and Narae lovers, unite! - Page 2

Omg guys, I'm so excited--my Heartbreak girl is here, I added a pic of her to my first post...she isn't done yet, but I love her. I will say one thing though, her nickname was to be 'Callie' but this girl will NOT stand for that-she means business! Also, she was going to be either Myr's twin or younger sister, but there is noooo way. She is definitely an older sister type, I think.

Wow, she's amazing. You must be thrilled with her.

woo!!!

i love the heartbreak face

i hate how they protray it as a sad face :/ when i look at it, i just see a serious face... the default eyebrows make it so sad

soliloquies · 09-21-2007, 10:47 AM

I wonder if they should change the picture, so people don't think it's so sad looking. My bf reckons my Lily is a totally different doll to the one on the site. Can eyebrows really do that much? (Rhetorical question

)

I agree.I didn't choose the heartbreak face because I couldn't get past the expression. It's a versatile head and looks great when not painted to look like it's crying

Shankula she is definitely no nonsense.

Shankula · 09-26-2007, 09:26 PM

Okay, after I finished her faceup her name didn't fit...has anyone else had that happen? Anyway, her name is now Camellia, and I put her pic in the gallery!

oooooh she looks fantastic!!

I hope its ok to put this here, I didn't like that there weren't any sculpt specific i.d. blocks for the narin/narae 43cm's, so I made some...feel free to use them, just please save them to your own server, then use them to your little hearts content. I hope you guys like them, this is what happens when you've had a crappy day and just need some mind numbing thing to do to get you out of a funk.

I just wanted to say how gorgeous everyones Narae's are! Narae is my all-time favourite sculpt, I love all her different expressions. I posted her picture in the mini intro thread, but here's a picture of my Narae (she's 2/3 face and tanning skin)

atomicbunny · 09-27-2007, 09:18 PM

I have a 2/3 faceplate Narae too, her name is Clarimonde. I love her because from a lot of angles she just looks angry! This is a less moody photos of her and the Narin boy I used to have.

Merry · 10-02-2007, 08:26 PM

I'm planning on ordering a Narae and would love to see more photos!

MosaicWolf · 10-02-2007, 09:06 PM

*perk* Wow. I am really impressed with the heartbreak Narae. I... may have to give Narae another look.

Shankula · 10-02-2007, 11:25 PM

Atomicbunny, somehow Clarimonde reminds me of an oldtime movie starlet...she is one hot tamale!

Mittens: You will be assimilated into the collective. Resistance is futile.

Just a quick pic of Hitomi (Narae) and her friend Yuki (MiniSup Yisol).

Merry · 10-06-2007, 06:01 AM

So cute! Does Hitomi have freckles? I'm considering trying freckles on my incoming girl. ^_^;

saraquill · 10-13-2007, 02:22 PM

I have a Tanning Butterfly Narae named Heather. I plan to get her a Heartbreak faceplate in a few months. The painters at Narin Creative are wonderful, they did her face the way I wanted it to be. Here's my girl at the gallery:

Yes, Hitomi has a bunch of freckles across the bridge of her nose.

I added those myself with a colored pencil.

I would be intrigued to see if anyone has turned the classic Narin faceplate into a girl. I love his Asian look and if that faceplate can be translated into an Asian girl I'd buy a Narae in a heartbeat (despite my fear of yellowing french resin!)

I've definitely seen a classic Narin girl! I can't remember whose it was though! Maybe others here can help? Most of the 43cm Narin faceplates can translate pretty easily I'd think, I've seen quite a few Narin girls.

As for the resin, don't be scared! I've had my Narae for over a year now, and she's not yellowed all that much. There is a slight change on parts of her that have been more exposed, but you have to really look to notice it. I haven't really done anything special other than not leave her sitting out in direct sunlight all day. I've heard of people keeping their dolls in boxes for this reason, but if I pay the money for a BJD I want her to be visible! Hehe.
