IMPORTANT! There is only 1 doll available in stock but as there are two variations(Kit / Full Doll) so it appears as 2 in stock. If two people purchase at the same time I will need to cancel the last order. Thank you for understanding!
This listing is for the 1/6 scale Forest Berry (ooak color) Moth Mela. The color is slightly darker than the Luna green. All extra parts are included [Sleepy face plate, moth antlers, 4 pair of hands, 3 pair of feet]. Kits arrive unstringed, semi-sanded and not sueded but elastic string, magnets, s hooks are provided. Full dolls arrive stringed, hot glue sueded and sanded. I do my best to ship your dolls in perfect condition but please keep in mind that due to the nature of 3D printing it is still possible to see thin printing layers or small imperfections or dust marks.
Moth Mela is the 1/6 version (27.5 cm) of the original Mela that has completed her transformation into a moth! She has slightly new design on her body such as additional articulation on her neck and she comes with new 4 pair of hands in addition to magnetic feet. She has 3 magnetic feet option: flat, pointe and heeled.
All the Pocket Melas are 3D resin printed at my home studio.
Shipping every Monday! (Exceptional early shipping may happen. You will be informed in case of a delay)
WARNINGS
- I use two types of 3D resin for pocket Mela; standard and plant based eco resin. While their quality remains the same, plant based resin is more environmental conscious and gives more color choices that suits to my artistic vision. They cost a bit more than standard resin but they are not as toxic and have less odor which makes my work easier and more safe.However recently finding certain types & colors of resins started getting harder so I started mixing different types of resin, buying a new brand or adding pigments to create my own custom colors. Therefore each stock update color and price of each Mela might change -even though I will try to recreate the same skin colors- so please if you like certain color I suggest you dont wait as I might not be able to offer it again.
- Besides the different type resins, you will still see different price on each doll. All dolls are getting printed with my new 3D printer which gives me so much better quality prints than before. The lower priced ones doesn't mean they have bad quality but I have reached even better quality that deserves the extra hours of working. But technology still can fail us and I might not reach the best quality for some reasons (temperature, resin type etc.) That's why you might see small price differences as I want to be fully fair and transparent. The ones that have visible problems are going to be named as B-Stock as I already did before and all their faults and problems will be photographed and mentioned in the description.
- Due to nature of the material the joints where the resin parts rub against each other will leave white dust marks which are easy to wipe with a damp paper or cloth. Please be extra careful not to be harsh while moving joints as it is possible to cause permanent scratches or chipping. If you want to reduce dust marks and bought a kit pocket Mela, I would suggest you to hot glue suede your pocket Mela's joints. Full dolls comes hot glue sueded already however even sueding doesn't guarantee that you won't have any scratches but it will definitely reduce the amount you will have.
- If you purchase a kit please remember that you will need to sand certain parts of your doll. Without sanding your doll will have scrathces-especially around joints- With the new printer, all parts are in already in great condition with almost no visible lines but you still need to sand the support marks which is not a lot and not challenging at all. However if this is something you do not want to work on I would suggest you buy the full doll version^^
Majority of the items comes in this box from 'S' hooks to the stickers and certificates are handmade & home produced- which means they are imperfectly perfect and by getting a pocket Mela you are giving me and my art a huge support! Thank you!
