D.I.M resin match?

I'm not sure if this is posted anywhere else, because I'm lazy, but is there a suitable match from other companies for D.I.M's normal skin? I'm not too crazy about their bodies. I'm preferably looking for a boy body that's pretty scrawny, but not girly and just proportionately strange. But any suggestions at all are much valued. :3
Thank you~!

It's for a minimee head, so does that mean it's different than the regular DIM resin? I can't remember...

BTW, Farchoosawits is one of mine... Ali. :)

LOL - Jen you make me giggle :)

Well, I can tell you that Dollzone is definitely NOT a match. I think their Minimee tend to always be a yellow resin, but it was much yellower than my Dollzone yellow NS dolls, so far nothing I have has matched his actual body. And I don't blame you for not liking the DIM bodies. While aesthetically I like the sculpt, the 1/3 scale has a funky arched back that is a total pain as they don't sit up straight unless you pop it out of joint :(

I have a Minimee Elf head on a Demon Garden body and that match is pretty close. I am not 100% sure of which skin tone the Demon Garden body is, however, since I got him second-hand. (I'd guess natural-yellow, but again, not 100% sure).

it's a nice body, though -- stands and poses well.


(I actually do have a special order in with Emory for a Dollzone 65cm body for my other Minimee guy... but I'll deal with resin match/non-match when I see him... I just really liked the look of the body!)

Heh! He was standing in front of a "green screen." I downloaded a renaissance fair picture from somewhere on the internet to use as a background. (It may well be California, for all I know -- it's definitely not the Maryland Faire).

One of these years, I really need to take some of my crew to the Maryland Rennfaire or Faerie Festival or something like that for some 'on the scene' photos.
