planning help

Mar 3, 2006

    1. I'm trying to make my own bjd but I'm having probs with the planning. on most tutorials it says to reduce the size of the doll by 10-5mm. so fine. but do you reduce the whole plan? (ie scan it an reduce it in photo editing) and how small do you reduce your doll plans?
       
    2. What tutorials say that? I've never reduced anything... >.>
       
    3. Noah's and this other one in jap. I just want to be the right size when I'm done
       
    4. I don't reduce my plan,but my dolls often come out smaller than I want.><
       
    5. I've had trouble with this too... You mean the size of the cores that you build clay over, right? It depends on how thick you want your clay parts to be... The thicker they are, the heavier your doll will be, but in some cases it'll be stronger.

      Not having a small enough polyester ball for my head meant that it was waaay too big for my doll :P But I draw my plan full size so I can see how big its MEANT to end up.
