It might have been just me but I would be lying if I said I was completely satisfied with my purchase from Doll Zone.
I had gotten their model Luke which is now discontinued.
We can call this a review,from my experience at least.
-The resin was okay though I saw a few chips here and there.
-Ankles did not support the body at all.
-The body was weakly strung,incredibly hard to pose.
[and I am a coward when it comes to re-stringing]
-The company did not have any photos of the nude body therefore I did not see just how long and out of proportion the neck actually was.
-I however can praise the well done face-up.
All those small things were bothering me.
I was barely taking photoshoots of him and even began considering selling him.
But then I said I shouldn't sell him just because I disliked the imperfections,so,I did the fallowing to improve him:
-I wired him.Twice.
[at first I didn't even know it was a thing,but it did help with the posing.]
- I glue sueded his ankles which also helped.
- I shortened the neck.
Now the neck was a challenge,I have never done anything to resin,never carved it or anything and yet I just took a grinding and engraving tool with a bunch of different tips and in two days and a solid friendship with a gasmask I shortened the neck. In my eyes the difference was major. Here's a before and after:
In my case,I'm a perfectionist and I saw the flaws but I managed to improve him so I'm not really complaining anymore.
