Matresca complete
Matresca's body finally arrived!
First thoughts: the AOD whiteskin is a very good match for Cerberus Project Beauty White. AOD bodies are strung incredibly tightly, and I can forsee restringing in Matresca's future; for the time being her headcap is held on by a doubled-over elastic band. The AOD 1/3 girl body is taller than the CP girl bodies by a couple of centimetres.
The AOD resin is good quality; smooth and even, with no casting flaws that I could discern. Posability is good, and she's pretty stable when standing. I'm quietly amused by the pink floral one-piece swimsuit the body came dressed in!
So, on the whole, AOD bodies seem to be a good, economical option for those without the funds to splash out on a CP body, though the shipping time could leave something to be desired - when you've paid $33 for EMS, you don't expect the doll to take over a week to reach you! However, that aside, I have no quibbles with AOD or seller RenaissanceFashion's service.Would I buy again from them? Very probably, though only for BW doll bodies - as I understand it, the AOD normal skin is not that good a match for CP Normal, and I'm not that struck by the AOD head molds on offer.
