MechatroWeGo stuff comes in multiple scales, 12MechatroWeGo is 1/12.

Also Kotobukiya's Gigantic Arms kit will be about the right size for 1/12

I'm trying not to buy as much recently but god damn it I need this.
Riri just shipped, can't wait for her to get here. I've been trying to limit myself to just one per wave, but it's real hard knowing that the older ones have skyrocketed in price.
Also, anyone have the 1/12 Black Raven girl? Been really on the fence about her. Her outfit's my favorite thing about her, but that outfit really doesn't fit in with the rest of my girls.
>>5833694
Riri is cute as fuck. I'm going to have to get her.
Where do I get some chuuni as fuck 1/12 clothing?
>>5834662
Picco Neemo clothing is your best option right now. You can make some if you're good and there are a few smaller, independent makers, but 1/12 doesn't have too many options for clothing yet.
>>5834662
>>5834929
Adding on to this- Do keep in mind that being 1/12, the whole dollhouse deal is opened up to you. MAKE SURE that this is not display only clothing, which is just glued/sewn together. Beautiful, but it's just furniture, not actually clothing. You can get lots of hats and shoes for the Picco Neemo S body by looking for dollhouse items, though. Picco Neemo D shoes are the same size as Blythe, so you shouldn't have a problem there.
Check out the doll clothing thread for some 1/12 size clothing patterns. There are a few sellers on Etsy, but honestly the clothing available is from like the same two sellers who sell clothing that is either overpriced and shitty or just normal priced and boring.
I do like Azone's quality myself. My only problem is...I fucking bought everything I could. Sewing for smaller dolls is pretty easy and fast as long as you're doing it by hand (do NOT using a sewing machine unless you are a masochist).
>>5835460
You know you can cycle a sewing machine by hand, right?
>>5835594
Sure! My main problem is seeing what the hell you're doing. 1/3 and 1/4? No problem. 1/6? Workable. 1/12? Maybe my eyes are just shit, but I don't feel comfortable using a sewing machine on an area that small.
>>5835794
Oh. I guess it's different for me since I stitch small things for a living.
Personally, I would always use a machine unless it's physically impossible (e.g. sewing a patch onto a jacket without it showing through the lining).
I'm a sucker for thigh highs, but the new custom lily looks great.
>>5836809
Also good to see they're finally trying jointed long hair now.
i just got one today, really enjoy the body type much more than figma. the clothes fit nicely and don't disrupt movement. i also never feel like something is going to snap when i take off a hand or a face (unlike figma)
who is OP pic though?
>>5836862
>who is OP pic though?
origional charactore donut steel
anyone know people who do 1/12 or similar clothes on commision? tumblr, DA, etc. i have no skill of my own and picco neemo are so expensive as is i may as well shell out more for custom.
>>5836813
Dammit, and here I said I wasn't going to buy any customs unless I was actually going to do something with that. I'm color blind, is that the same hair color as Hikaru?
>>5838158
Sorry, but they're not even close. Hikaru is green, thats like a blonde.
>>5837566
What are you looking to have made? I don't do commissions normally but I'm about to start trying to do 1/12 cus of how much of a goddamn struggle it is to clothe my girls and I'm curious what things people are looking for. Mine wear lolita style but that isn't everyone's thing.
>>5838372
more normal clothes like pic related. cute bags like >>5837566
i'd probably pay 100+ for a semi decent outfit
>>5838401
Those boots are really cute. Finding 1/12 footwear is the hardest thing.
>>5838158
Are you that guy from Busou Shinki General who can't tell the difference between the Gourai variants?
>>5838672
Yeah, plz no bully. Life is suffering when I'm colorblind and love customizing
>>5839658
At least you don't waste money on silly re-colors I guess.
>>5839658
>colorblind and love customizing
Didn't Van Gogh's stuff turn out the way it did because he was colour blind?
>>5837015
Kimonos look horrid in 1/12 around the neck and sleeves.
>>5840299
True.
>Type-D's hair extensions use different joints and aren't compatible with previous releases
for what purpose
I can't wait for Amano. She makes my heart go doki doki.
>>5842646
she gives me that crazy yandere feels. Like she's going to kill my cat.
>>5842742
>Like she's going to kill my cat.
And then cook it and feed it to you.
>>5842646
At first, I thought she looked a bit too birdlike, so I went with her wave sister instead. The more I think about it, the more I think I should have gone with her, if only because her weapon is unique (to me) whereas Kusumi's is a repaint of Riri's.
>>5843167
I'm not a big fan of the weapons and tend to reequip them with little armory, but these little guys are awfully addictive. I've only been into the line for less than a year and I already have 4.
>>5838401
I'm going to try to make a pattern for a sundress today. I only have an S and a D body wise though. If its successful I'll try to throw some things up on my old defunct Etsy store.
I've already spent 300$ on this line... sadly just a drop in the bucket, but i can't wait to take pics.
>>5843566
>spent 300$ on this line
So you got three of them?
>>5843880
i wish. [spoiler]2 and some outfits[/spoiler]
too bad the faces on these are so much bigger than figma.
>>5845203
Are you trying to head swap with figma?
>>5846597
i was curious about the differences and figma heads are like pinheads in comparison, yet body type is similar. real shame.
Trigger finger hands.
How?
>>5847910
Yeah it only works with the big headed moe monsters like Lucky Star. I have a Miyuki somewhere that I've tested on an older S body and it actually looks decent.
Any news on these yet?
>>5850765
I hope they reissue the combat gear. I didn't pick it up at the time and I'm regretting it now.
>>5850767
I only got two and I regret not getting more. Though I /really/ wish they'd just sell the vests so I can have more tactical school girls.
>>5852279
Yes, which is great, but I also wish they'd reissue the first lot. At least I've learnt my lesson now and wont miss out on these. I need my army of cute operator girls.
>>5852279
Yeah, very different. The original came with a plate carrier, cargo shorts, a polo shit, and a sports bra. The shorts are kind of similar, but still a very different style. The boots look like straight recolor/reissue, but everything else is different.
>>5824269
Don't want the thread to die before my custom is far enough along to show it off. Anyone else have any donut steels?
>>5855323
Hair repaint
>>5855323
Repaint + simple mod
>>5855872
A cute.
>>5855323
I'm a big fan of Little Pullip/Byul/Dal heads on either of the Picco Neemo bodies. Not my dolls, but same type of hybrid. I also have a couple of Obitsu heads I want to paint for Picco Neemo bodies, but the humidity here will not give me a break. I think the actual Picco Neemo heads are cute, but a little too small for my preferences.
>>5855993
Not my picture, but the D bodies work well with the Parfom heads too. I tried it with the regular bodies and it's still pretty cute I think.
I came across this thread entirely by accident while looking for shit to buy.
I now have D Y I N G U R G E to own one of these. They're so fucking adorable, and their non-stoned faces blow shinkis out of the water.
>>5856085
They are incredibly cute, anon. Their a little pricey for the size, but the quality is great.
>>5856085
http://slist.amiami.com/top/search/list?s_keywords=assault+lily&submit=Search&pagemax=40
>>5856132
I want them, but up till this point i've only collected mostly mecha. I know that this isn't that much of a doll as it is a figure with clothing, but ehhhhh..
>>5856167
>not having a 1/12 scale mecha these can ride in
wow
>>5856250
I think i'm actually going to buy one of these. You just reminded me that i'm getting those 1/12 compatible kits from Kotobukiya.
>>5856267
1/12 is the hotness at the moment.
>>5856167
You could always test the waters with Frame Arms Girl.
>>5857487
Are we the slowest general on this board?
Do the clothes on the Assault Lily come off so that we can change them like normal dolls?
If so, then it's real fucking neato.
>>5857734
Yeah, Assault Lily are just Picco Neemo which is Azone's 1/12 doll line.
>>5857783
Why isn't she watching the current show on TV? Is it so bad she has to turn to give a condescending look?
y dis thread so slow
>>5859369
Because this is one of those weird lines that are very popular, but no one talks about them. Just like the Pure Neemo line. The only two Sahra's A La Mode girls I was interested in were sold out by the time I checked amiami in the morning.
I think it's because they're mostly popular in Japan instead of the west.
>>5855993
>>5856013
I think Busou Shinki heads work well on them too.
>>5859496
Also there's a lot of crossover with other 1/12 lines which have their own threads. Shinkis, figma, FAGs and soon megami device. This tends to spread out the conversation. There's also the 1/12 clothing thread going at the moment.
New custom lily hairstyle?
>>5859690
And yet, we can't exactly merge into Busou Shinki General because it's largely about plastic modelling now.
Are there any custom lily with LL breast?
All i can find is dfc and M.
Don't want to buy assault lilys - too pricey.
>>5859597
Because it's her shy face
>>5859581
Nice brotha. Will any shinki head fit?
>>5862995
MMS3 heads fit better than MMS1 heads, but I think both should work.
I've found older clothes tend to have a better fit with Figma bodies than current ones for some reason.
>>5855874
Do you have any more pictures of Custom Lily D? Especially her faces? I'm not sure if I should get one or not.
How would I go about learning to make clothes at this scale? What kind of cloth to use, how to stitch, etc.?
>>5865972
Y O U T U B E T U T O R I A L S
>>5865972
Rule of thumb on cloth (besides felt obviously): If you hang it off your finger and it doesn't drape, it's probably too thick.
>How to stitch
I...just sew normally? I don't know what you mean by this question.
>>5824269
>New Piconeemo S body with upgraded articulation is out
Can someone give us a link? All the stores I checked only sells the old style Picco Neemo bodies.
>>5868398
It's only being sold on Azone's store.
Up on Ami along with the boots and a few other things. A couple shorts are getting sold separately, but you need the whole set if you want harnesses
Fucking September release, though. Three Baselards that month already. They won't be hard to resell if my order gets too big, though.
>>5868877
Need a middleman, I assume? Looks like new member registration only allows Jap addresses.
>>5870012
But which color do I get?
>>5870500
I went with field and the matching boots. City is nice, but they didn't reissue the black boots to go with it. Marine's not bad, but again, boots. And thematically, I don't really need a marine camo. Another option is getting the brown boots, the city set, and then the separate brown camo shorts they're selling for a forest set if you're willing to spend a bit more.
>>5870541
I ended up going with city because I've got plenty of black boots from Assault Lily.
If they end up looking too weird, I can always get some proper ones from eBay.
>Bought Picco Neemo D body to make a hybrid with a while back from Amazon for about $18 (sold out everywhere else)
>Paint new head, need another body
>New price on Amazon: $81.60
>Price everywhere else: n/a, sold out
What the fuck? Am I missing something?
I bought my first Lily and all her joints/pegs head-related are loose. I fixed them with hobby tape for friction, but is this normal for the line?
Makes me cautious of buying more. For context, it was Assault Lily 18 - Seina Taneda.
>>5873566
The first lily I got had really loose ankle joints and couldn't stand on her own. I fixed it but it put me off. But I own four now and the other three didn't have any problems.
Perhaps their QC wasn't as good and is getting better? That's just my experience anyway. It's hard to know from isolated examples.
Oh wow, didn't know this thread existed until someone else in the Shinki thread was looking for Picco Neemo stuff as well. I just never bothered to search, I guess.
Here are mine so far: Black Raven Lilia, Custom Type-C, Shirai Yuyu 2.0, and Fuyoh Katsuya.
I also have the latest custom on pre-order, but I'm more looking forward to this one http://www.nekomagic.net/event_news/201607/large/wf2016s_a6112.jpg
And because of this shit, I got hooked on Pure Neemos as well. Is there a thread for those?
>>5874097
I found a quick fix for issues like neck pegs. Grab one of the lesser-liked revoltechs, and pull out all its joints.
Start sticking them into the neck hole to see if one of them fits. If they do, they go on really snug with the head piece and you're done.
>>5874967
You can also just buy joints by the runner on HLJ.
>>5874967
Not sure how wasting money, waiting for an unwanted figure to ship to me, and then going through all the joint parts is quicker than simply brushing/dipping future onto the peg, but whatever works for you, keep doing it, I guess.
>>5875208
Well, for one, future isn't sold in some countries...
So do Lilies normally come with jointed hands or just peg hands?
>>5875389
The new ones have the jointed hands.
>>5875389
The ones using the old version of the body uses peg hands, new version uses jointed hands. But Figma hands can be used with the old body, and if you trip the pegs a bit you can use them on the new bodies too.
>>5875208
My country doesn't sell that.
So you could say... My country has no future.
LE UPVOTED ECKS DEE
>>5876748
I wish mario's head worked as well as Luigi's.
Sorry for the potato, but I wanted at least one picture of my prosthetic leg before I paint it. It's removable and I'm pretty proud of myself for managing to make her be able to stand on it.
>>5883411
Yes.
Okay, I bought a Lily.
Now what?
bump
i bought some clothes so i want the thread alive when i take pics
>>5886624
enjoy
>>5890963
Where do you get your 1/12 clothes?
>>5898772
I just buy Picco Neemo stuff. I've made a couple things, but it usually doesn't turn out great.
>>5899198
I hear you.
Where do I sell my picco neemos?
I have an extra body and clothes I wanna sell
>>5898772
In response to this (and to anyone else looking for 1/12 clothes), what kind are you looking for?
>>5908055
is there any pico neemo toku outfits? i'm pretty sure there's like, mono-colour bodysuits
1/12 glasses
>>5908060
Not that I know of, the ugly jumpsuits are the closest thing I can think of.
>>5908063
Someone needs to get on that shit.
