SOLD - LUTS Delf Chiwoo B&G Hybrid WS

Now Sold. Thank You!

Another sales post, guys!
(stay tuned for a general update)

Now, this doll used to be very precious to me - it used to be frozen wings' character, Sadie, who I was very attached to, but as he aged, so did his colouring, faceup, etc, and I couldn't think of him as anyone else, so I wiped him, cleaned him up and gave him to my boyfriend as a project, hoping to draw on his interest for the hobby....unfortunately, he still hasn't given him a faceup, and to be honest....blank dolls, after a while, begin to creep me out....
I actually think the reason for Matt not giving him a faceup, is that Chiwoo, like most LUTS dolls, isn't a very realistic looking sculpt, and I think that's what he's going for....he's not looking for heavy shading, any kind of feminine-ish features what-so-ever, and when I look for example images for him, he always picks Migidolls, and their stuff....so maybe, if I sell this guy....I can save and get him one that he'll really appreciate. :3

So here goes....


For Sale - LUTS Delf Chiwoo B&G Boy Hybrid (White Skin)
Currently a Feeler.

Okay, I don't have too much info on his background, but I do know he is old - he's been with me since 2010, and before then, he had at least two owners that I know of.
I'm pretty sure that his original owner was DOA's Frozen Wings, who had him as the well loved character Sadie for a long time, if that helps.
He still had Sadie's gorgeous pink faceup when I got him, but it was already chipped, and has since aged, so last year, I wiped it and cleaned him up as best I can.
Since he has aged though, and is a LUTS doll, he has yellowed, but it is very even, and despite all this, because of his B&G body, he is still one of my favourite, solid posers - I've not had to restring him again in all this time, and he stands and poses wonderfully!

He does have some slight damage though, which I've pictured, and will add a description to.
There's also some small white patches on his face, which is not damage, just residue from cleaning/wiping - it is removable with water and magic eraser, but I have not had time to do it as of yet. His faceup was also done with very strong colours, and because of this,  I have had trouble removing some of the paint around his eyes and in his lips - this is also not damage, and should be removable without much trouble at all, for those with the correct "tools". : )
His fingers and toes were also painted - I've managed to remove the finger polish, but once again, the toes are not cooperating with me. xD
This should also be pretty easy to remove, with more correct methods! : )


Lastly, he didn't actually come to me with a "doughnut" for his head, and since he is type 1, I purchased another LUTS official one, but its NS rather than matching WS.
This shouldn't be a problem though, since they are not visible.
He also does not have an official box, but I can package up safely in another doll box, no problems!


Now, he will come blank, but I can include a random pair of eyes and hopefully a wig, but you're more than welcome to check out my other FS items for him, and we can work out a deal.



Please let me know if you are interested in this boy!










A seam line maybe?



White on the ear is from cleaning. It can be removed easily, but I haven't got the stuff for it at the moment. :(

A tiny graze on the back of the headcap.

Inside the head. Some putty and faceup residue from previous owners.
Tried my best to clean it up more, but once again, don't have the right stuff on me at the moment. :(



The toe polish.


Comparing with a Delf in NS, for hopefully a reference of his yellowing.
