I picked up these two recently. Quite happy with them. Apologies for the poor image quality.
Minori is an authentic daki while Akari is a bootleg, both 2way tricot.
Has anyone had experience with ordering custom covers? I was wondering whether to go with Hobbyheart or ADP for one.

>>16971811
I've seen a couple covers of her with bloomers instead of pantsu, however the art isn't as good on those unfortunately.

>>16971779
Can someone give me a rundown on these things? Specifically the costs and customization options. I really want one but I don't want mine to have a lead side on it. I also want to know if a fumo or plushy doll would be a better investment. Sorry for the hastily made sentences, I'm having to do this on my break at work.

Just hit 7, don't own any that aren't waifu

Both

I'm good for a bit but I'll probably want more in a year or so.

Sure, here's the quick rundown. The /a/ buyfag guide should be all you need:
http://buyfags.moe/Details_for_each_type_of_buyfaggotry#Dakimakura

Essentially, real dakimakuras cost around 6-12k yen and can be found on a variety of anime goods websites.
There are many choices for different character images, you're going to have to search for what you like.

You can also opt for a bootleg daki which will be cheaper but have ever so slightly worse print quality. You can also get a custom print if you have an image (haven't tried this yet myself). I don't mind em, but some people are nitpicky about this kind of thing. On bootleg sites you have a choice of fabric, usually peach skin being the worst and 2-way tricot being the best (better fabric costs more). Real dakis are normally always 2-way tricot, which is a very smooth and silky fabric that stays cool.

As for pillows, you can normally scout for body pillows at department stores and the like. Pay attention to the size of it, as most dakis are either 50x150cm or 50x160cm.

Does anyone have the links to the other doujins dakimakura covers? They used to be in the old guide and I couldn't find them in the new guide.

I remember there was one site just full of a number of artist dakimakura covers to order from.

I've had one of mai waifu for 5 years.
We snuggle sometimes.

AnimeDakimakuraPillow has a deal right now where if you buy a custom daki you get a peach skin one for free.
I wanted to order two custom ones, think I can do two separate orders so I can get two free dakis?

>>16977482
I'd tell you if I knew, sorry. Best bet is to google the artist's name+dakimakura and go from there.

>How many dakis of your waifu do you own (or how many in general)?
2 ships 2 ponies

>Do you snug or fug your dakis?
snug

>Are you looking to purchase any new ones soon?

>How many dakis of your waifu do you own (or how many in general)?
2 of mai waifu, 2 other fake ones to make people think I'm a lolicon

>Do you snug or fug your dakis?
I guess I snug them? Insomnia is a bitch. W-why would you fug your pillows?

>Are you looking to purchase any new ones soon?
I'm waiting on the commission art for my 3rd and 4th covers of mai waifu

You guys got any recommendations on where to print your custom art? Or just HobbyHeart it?

>>16979616
I actually pulled the trigger here. You can do the free daki deal as many times as you want with separate orders.

>>16979853
I've heard that ADP does better prints, but they're a bit more pricey than HH.
HH also has unreliable service at times, although their prints will suffice if you're not a big spender.

There's no good Tenshi dakis so I'll never own one.

Yes I've seen neropaso's design. He's a good artist, but I'm not a fan of his interpretation of the character. He gives her massive knockers and makes her look too mature in general.

Life is suffering.

I like them, but on fitting characters like Yuugi or Komachi. tenshi is flat as a board.

Is there any good marisa daki?

Only 2 of my daughterfu.
I only snug with mine, because who fucks their own daughter?
I thinking about it, but I'm currently content with the ones I have. I'm trying to find non-lewd one's but that harder to find.

>Are you looking to purchase any new ones soon?
If I saw any wife designs I dont have for sale. Thinking about buying a ring more than anything lately.

>>16989020
A ring is good. I have one myself, it's a nice constant reminder of her and it also helps with anxiety since it gives me something to focus on and fiddle with.

Where does yande.re get so many high quality daki scans? Are they redraws or scans from the daki itself?

Guys I have to become a full fledged normie tomorrow.

I have to get rid of my daki today.

I'm not used to so much loss. Please wish me luck.

>>17004989
Why?

>>17004992
I got married to some 3dpd and graduated college and now we have to move to the same house.

Where did my life go so wrong

>>17004989

Go fuck yourself. You're nothing but a 3D whore.

>>17005006

When you decided to betray 2D I would say.

>>17004793
Please help. What is the best way for me to get a nice image for a daki cover? I have a 405 x 1505 sample image with "sample" in the middle and a tapestry scroll of the same image. That's the stuff I have to work from. What is my best option?

>>17005016

Thats the one I have, by far my favorite cover yet. and the only one that actually turns me on sometimes

I have one it's all I could fit on my bed. It's a Galko cover. I accidentally got a blood stain on it and it didn't come come out in the washing machine

>>17007750
Post it

I have been venting my porn addiction on these things.

I just bought 6 from hobby heart and one was a very lewd Monobeno one https://www.hobbyheart.com/monobeno-dakimakura-hugging-pillow-cover-p-6123.html

which is being shipped to the US. I am starting to regret doing so now that I've fapped and getting paranoid. I had a lewd one of Madoka and never had any problems with customs or whatever but this is on a whole other level. Should I cancel it?

>>17009170
I don' mind if it takes long. But based on the image do you think it's possible to clean properly, or am I better off asking for a vector or a redraw?

>>17009236
Seems easy enough to clean, give me full image

Full image as in, the non cropped one or one with a bigger size? Because this is all I have.

>>17009253
the higer the reso the better it looks on your pillow, but this is good enough if its all you got

>>17009264
Alright, I can always make the image larger with waifu2x, right? Though a small bit of the skirt and hair of the black haired girl needs to be cleaned too, would that be too difficult?

>>17009280
You only want the blondie? What about the other side?

>>17009338
Mai is my one and only wife, anon.

>>17009338
Ah and for the other side I'm going to try to find an artist that would be able to mirror Kyoani's anime artstyle. I still don't have any candidates though, but I still want to get the front cover ready for the time being.

>>17007750
Lick it off

I'm not kidding

>>17009183
Pretty lewd mate

>>16971779
I want a daki, but they're just so pricey.

This link is dead.

>>17005006
Why would you marry someone who's not ok with your interests?
Why would you rush to get married to someone right after college?
Why would you do these things if you're regretting them right now?

>>17012128
answer: for the same reason asian women agree to arranged marriages

>>17012225
To rise through the social ladder?

>>17012225
To get Visas?

>>17012237
>>17012245
Because society expects it from you

>>17012260
Not really. We live in a society where more and more people are waiting to get married.
I mean unless you're black or something.

Can a custom daki that you ordered be kept exclusive to you? I don't want to order one only to have it being featured and sold in the site of the shop I ordered it from?

>>17020769
Probably not unless you have a personal agreement with the printer.

So forget about hobbyheart.

>How many dakis?
I believe 12 or 13 including the cheap magazine ones.
>of your waifu
Only five. Kinda shameful but the ones I have are pretty nice.
>snug or fug
Always snug em never fug em, my dude.
>Are you looking to purchase any new ones soon?
Yeah, actually. There are two things that I need to replace right now and one of them is a waifu daki. My girl is Reimu and I haven't purchased a new one in two or three years? Any suggestions? I haven't been lurking the sites because I've been a NEET for about a year.

>>17020800
Goddamn it. Then where can I order from? Cuddlyoctopus won't print an image if I don't own the right to it. I'm running out of options.

>>17020808
The one in the OP is best Reimu daki

>>17004989
>normie
Don't kid yourself, bud. You were always one.

>>16971779
2 dakis.
Only snug.

how often should i wash it?

>>17021056
never go more than 2 weeks without washing it, the best is every week.

Just put some washing powder, that liquid stuff that smells good into a bucket and put it in there for a few hours

>>17020821
Can anyone give me an option to print a custom daki other than Hobbyheart? The thought of a fat greasy guy getting his hands on the daki I worked so hard to turn into a reality makes my blood boil. Surely lots of people here have that problem, right?

>>17020837
It sure is

>>17020837
>>17021221
Yeah, I like her a lot. Who makes her?

I've got a couple good ones. An original Sayori@nekoworks Reimu, a custom from DakEmakura, and a really pretty one from a circle whose name escapes me at the moment.

I need fresh blood, though.

>>17021277
post Reimu dakis please

>bought pillow ages ago
>cant find good daki to put on
Eh..

>>17021297
Okay, I'll take pictures later.

>>17021311
Fat Patchy

>>17020800
I asked hobbyheart if the design with the pictures I provide is kept exclusively for me and they said yes. Why did you lie to me, anon?

So which does the better prints? ADP or hobbyheart? Or a third site?

>>17022200
because I've seen custom prints on their site that are clearly user made

>>17022200
>>17025191
Also they are chinese, and the chinese lie about everything for business.

>>17025191
Are you sure those aren't the ones drawn by their own artists? From what I read it says if you ask their artists to draw it for you they have the right to post it on their shop. You'd think they would have a far worse rep if they actually lied to their customers.

do you guys sleep naked

>>17026287
>do you guys sleep
No.
I have nightmares otherwise.

>>17026287
yes

and I cum on a dakimakura every day

>>17026287
Only uncouth savages sleep with clothing on.

>>17026287
boxershort only

>>17027924
This is the only correct answer.
Comfortable, but not completely exposed and covered enough for unexpected situations.

Can anyone recommend me some good artists to commission a cover design? Doesn't matter how expensive they are as long as they are good and accept commissions.

>>17026287
I wear a shirt and sleep pants. I also tend to use my small blanket as a barrier between my legs/crotch and my dakimakura.

>>17028819
Depends on what you're looking to commission, a lot of artists have different styles. I'll list a few from dA
kimmy77 is very popular but is good at mimicking style http://kimmy77.deviantart.com/
Murmoruno is good at loli http://murmoruno.deviantart.com/
tonee89 is ded but he's also good http://tonee89.deviantart.com/
LindaRoze is quick, good if you like her style http://lindaroze.deviantart.com/

A ton of artists are pretty obscure and you'll find a few gems through getting llamas on the site. I commissioned zzzjjack and Ateliae for dakis.

Also check out hentaifoundry and tumblr for artists, you might find someone you like.

On that note, does anybody know how long ADP takes to finish a custom order? Just ordered 2 because of their free daki deal

>>17031378
Well, I'm looking for an artist able to mirror Kyoani's artstyle the best. The first one you listed drew a nice Sento, so I'm going to keep that artist as a possible candidate. Thanks.
