Limb size poportion to head size..HELP
Permalink   

I bought a  Luca head with 3/4 size limps from someone on ebay. I also chose to include the body(20") for my kit. When I received it and took the kit out, the limbs especially the arms looked huge compared to the head. It does not say what kit Limbs these are. How do I know if the limbs that she packaged with this head is all wrong? I tried to put the limbs in the body and place the head at the top to see what it would look like and to me it does not match...my son said it looks like the baby is a body builder..LOL The arms are bent and  measure 9" long and at the top they are 7" around. The legs are 7 3/4" long and 8 1/4 " around at the top of the leg. The length of the body sent is 9" from the butt to the neck. Does this sound right?

If they are soft silacone like the head, then they are the new limbs for her. The older ones were very hard ad not realistic, in comparison to the head. As long as they are the same colour they are correct. June

The limbs feel alot softer than the head...the head said soft Luca head but to me it feels still kind of hard. I'm already wondering how hard it will be to root. The person selling the kit had several kits and you got to chose between two sets of limbs...I picked the bent limbs. So I'm not sure if she packaged the kit herself. Would you be able to tell the limbs if I took a picture and if so How do I attach the picture if you can't put pictures here?

You can't put the pictures in the post, but you can include a link. I think that the limbs that come with the Luca kit are out of proportion to the head also. I suggest using the limbs from a 17 inch Berenguer and saving the Luca limbs for a larger head.

What size head would I get for these limbs? I really like the limbs they are real looking but just not sure if they go well with this head? Has anyone done this kit so I could see what it looks like finished?

I have just finished Hannah, her head and limbs are soft, my LucaHead is a little firmer and she has 90 degree bent legs, I have only just opened the package and her arms are the same as Hannah with the same degree of bend. They are supposed to be the new soft limbs for her. With the head being a little firmer ,put your rice sack, eated in the microwave with acup of water in there as well so the rice does burn. But those two heads aren't hard to root. Hope this helps. I'm going yo get Jette to and they say that head is a bit harder again.

June,
When you finished Hannah did you think the limbs looked ok? Also what size body did you go with? Do you have any pictures you could share? Thanks
Michelle
