I've been promising this to people... here are the first pictures of Miyabi, my MSD-size custome-made BJD. I made her with super sculpy and she is just a head ATM, but I believe I may be making her a body. I'm thinking of covering her with apoxy or something to sand it smooth and all. I just haven't decided what yet... I think the mouth needs more work. XD At this point I'm just glad that the ears look half-decent... Edit: finalized version of the sculpt near the bottom of the thread.
shes very cute! i like how she looks a little odd. her nose is real cute! gives her character.. keep showing us some progress pics will you! i wanna see!
She DOES look odd. Really, really odd. I'm doing a lot of reshaping and tweaking on her face, especially her mouth and upper lip. I do like her nose though.
I did some work on Miyabi... reshaped her head some and generally made her look more human. Her body is also in the works, but for now...
Miyabi... with her new chin! XD I'm going to be going at her eyes with a file tommarrow. I'm also doing a little work on her body... slowly. I'll post pictures once I get the head right...
Hey! I didn't know you sculpt too!! That is so cool, I wish I had known when we met at Acen we could have talked about it. I like her, she is very cute! Heres my 1st try: http://www.denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?t=55902 Have you made others? I want to see!! Did you know sculpey is easy to carve after it is baked? I think the area below her nose and above her top lips needs to be built up, just a little bit, just below each nostril, but she looks great!
XD Well, in the past I made a doll arm, but Miyabi here is my first doll. And yeah, it's easier to sculpt AFTER the sculpey is baked. Especially while still more. The nose, ears, and eyes will get more work when I get the equipment that I want~! Say, you have any instant messangers?
Okay... Pictures of what I consider the final head, appart from finalizing the neckhole. I'm thinking I'll skip making a body for this head and just make it so she fits on a Kid Dollmore body. I will be casting her in resin, mostly for practice.
