So far, I only have this blueprint of a sculpt I want to make. But I plan to actually sculpt the doll in blender and update this thread with photos! I want to make a short, mature MSD. Many dolls in this scale are either very lanky or very young looking. While both of these options are nice, I thought it might be nice to make a doll that resembled a short woman. Warning: drawn depictions of dolly nudity ahead
Ooh this looks like an interesting project! I like her eye shape, and you’re right that MSDs usually represent people who would be very tall and lank IRL. I would love to see a realistically proportioned woman!
Another update: I have most of the details that I want to lock in! Front: Back: Facial Closeup (you can see that I added an "eyeball" to one side to get a feel for how it will look in the end): Next stop: joints!
Jointing is hard, y'all. So far I think the joints I've made will work once printed, but we'll have to see!
all of the jointing is completed. Here is the "final" jointed body (as far as this prototype goes) before i hollowed out each part and "drilled" the channels. here are all the parts, hollow with channels, oriented for printing:
