Something biggg this time. Huge jump from my usual 3cm heads :XD Still have to correct some parts of the head and work on symmetry :dead Oh and I tried gray Super Sculpey. I'm verrry satisfied with this clay. Especially the color! It's easier to see imperfections on gray surface. Since I love to work with polymer clay I can't cover it with gray primer, because you can't put it into the oven anymore. Rui
Oh wow he's beautiful. And I looooove his ears. Is that weird? I don't care if it's weird, he has exquisite ears. Exquisite everything. His eyelid crease is so marvelously creasy. I love your style.
HystericalParoxysm, thank you! About ears... I'm planning to make them smaller I'll only sand edges though so the shape and curves will stay unchanged ) I'm glad you like him ^ - ^
I love him! Hi is absolutely beautful! In wich material do you make him? And when you prime him what do you use? sorry for silly questions but I am realy newbie on this!
fairydream, thank you! I used Super Sculpey Firm. It's gray so it is easier to see if there are any mistakes without using any primer. I will use primer, but only when I'll decide that he is completely finished. Since I love polymer clay, I can't use primer too soon, cause I can't put primed head in oven And the primer I use is a car primer. I tried Mr. Hobby but I can't see any difference except for the price (and for some reason mr hobby caused bubbles on the surface of the doll ). I use gray primer Motip )
Thanks for the informative answere! Dont knew if we have that kind of primer in sweden but will for sure look out for it! I use super sculpey to but the fles one maby have to try the firm one! Your head is STUNNING!!! seing forward for the rest of the body!
He's absolutely lovely, you're doing a wonderful job! I really like him with no eyes or wig or anything. His face is so beautiful.
Jemey, thank you! ^ ^ So, I put Rui head on Dikadoll 70+ body. I'm sorry for such wide cardigan, next time will take pictures without it so all the proportions will be visible much better (noticed it too late) ^ ^'
He is super gorgeous!! ♥_♥ A lot of male bjds (imo) are either end of the scale - either very feminine or very masculine - but Rui is a beautiful balance and i love his youthful appearance.
Thank you guys ^ ^ aneemal, yes, I have this feelings too, some bjd males are too masculine and others are too feminine (not all of them but mostly )... So I tried creating something in between and I'm sooo glad that you like him even though it was my first try in making male head XD Thank you! I changed his ears a bit and his chin (forgot to make photos though). And there it is, first layer of primer! Finally :dead:XD Rui head with little guardian:
This boy is so pretty. Your style reminds me a bit of migidoll (might just be me) He looks awesome. His nose ridge and the subtle eyelids are so expressive uwu
Sleep of Reason, thank you! ^ ^ ghostdollie, thank you ^ ^ No, nobody in particular, I only paid attention to eyelids while looking at Asians on pictures )
du-hast, thank you! ^ ^ Yay, Rui is finished! If there will be enough people interested in him, then he will be casted in resin ^ ^ More information: mold - Rui size - for 70cm bjd body head circumference - 21,7см neck circumference - 10cm eyes - preferable 12mm resin color - Pale Normal from F-doll (compatible with Normal Fresh from Dollshe; Normal (actual) from Luts; Normal Yellow from Dikadoll) Rui: Rui on Dikadoll body (70+):
ahh he looks so fantastic! i wish i could say i'd buy him but i already have too many dolls Q___Q! i hope you get enough interest to have him cast because i'd love to see him around, is there anywhere else you had the chance to ask people about interest? like other forums or tumblr? if not i'd love to give you a hand to see if anyone has any interest through i don't know how much help i would be u.u ;;;
Kyliebee, thank you! ^ ^ Not sure about resin match with Volks but I'll check it out ) du-hast, thank you! I finally officially announced about pre-order today On my blog, blog-site and few forums, though I'm bad at promoting those things, haha So I'll be very grateful for any help Thank you again! )
blueberry-doll oh yaay ! do post pictures when you have him in resin ^^! may i have links to your blogpost and such? that way i could do a post on my tumblr to promote your artist head it's not much but i have about 500 followers so if i get lucky it could get some notice
Ahhh, he's so perfect ;;u;; If only I had any money at all to buy him now!!! I just bought a Cintiq though )'; Perhaps if you resell him in the future ;;3;;
Thank you guys! Kyliebee, sorry, it took me some time but I remembered about picture with hands from Dikadoll. And since Dikadoll Normal Yellow is very similar to F-doll Pale Normal, you can compare hand from Volks Normal with hand from Dikadoll Normal Yellow: http://www.acbjd.com/images/dkd/dk_3jointed_male_hands_06.jpg I hope that it will help ^ ^
It's been awhile ^ ^ Rui is back from casting factory! Yay! :XD It will take some time for the head to match Dikadoll body, but it should be pretty good after the head yellow a bit. Rui in F-doll Pale Normal on Dikadoll Normal Yellow body:
Wow! I like him! And this is unrelated, but the last picture is perfectly put together in my opinion. His eyes are so well done!
