Hi! I wanted to do a bjd since 2 years ago... dunno.
Here is my first try, a plasticine tiny head (6cm of tall) called Yolli
http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h83/RunyaDim/nene/firsttinyheadyolli.jpg
After Yolli i wanted to do a 45cm bjd with body, i used super sculpey but i couldn't sand it very well and when i tryed to string her my left wrist got luxated (I have very fragile joints because im ill of arthritis) so my parents told me to don't do dolls again
Here is Quira, the one who luxated my arm:

But again i decided to try a big size, this time with more care to don't get hurted and decided to use Das clay so sanding would be more easy, i haven't tryed Ladoll but i think this is a little similar, maybe more hard to use but you can use water to soften it while you work ^^
This unfinished male head is done with Das, im still working on it, i don't like his eyes and need a lot to be done:

And after recovery from a surgery in my right wrist i could keep doing this other head i left unfinished half year ago, this is called Nene

Still don't have ears but i'll add it with das clay later, i wish i could have some rasps to sand it faster but i only have sandpapers, im no good sanding sculpey, also i wish to make internal holes for imans to hold horns or cat ears... i'll see later if it works
I must fix the profile, the forehead need more volume... what do you think?


Thanks for reading this

 

Aww thanks a lot Lotte Rotten! now i love her nose too ^^

 

Thank you isa_cuomo ^^ yes, i want to cast her on resin, maybe Alumilite. I'll make a body for her too

 

Now she's looking odd with Das clay XD
I need to arrange the lips and the ears, i have problems doing them equally, and the cheeks too



Do you think the ears need to be more out?

 

winfur: Thank you! :O oh you are working with DAS too? post some pics
I arranged one ear, i really want to have the option to piercing it, do you think this is better?

isa_cuomo: Thanks! *went to see isa's doll* oh she is pretty! now i see the ears of das, i couldn't find das white so i used the terracota instead. I like an opened mouth too, but is somekind of difficult to do XD

Aisy: Aww thanks Aisy! ^^

So im working on the ears, i lifted it a little, also i wanted to try the liquid putty, my mom told me she looks like a clown now haha

 

zidora: Thanks for the kinds comments ^^ i'll wait till i open the head to see if the eyes can be arranged.
Your girl is so cute too! i envy you for already doing a complete doll XD i spend a whole year to do a head!

isa_cuomo: ah don't worry about the english XD im very bad with english verbs!
You are right! i liked so much geso, because is more sandable than liquid putty, im working with both.
Thats my room in the pic, but when i sand i need to go to another place i don't want to have dust to breath in my bed.

winfur: Melissa is pretty ^^ like her mouth and how she's painted, looks like a mask, will you post more pics? oh and is wonderful you work in the body togheter, will you cast it to have the same body?

I have been busy and reading Harry Potter finale
Now i can at last work in my doll again, here are some pics, first i worked with das and layered with liquid putty, it dry fast but for my weak hands i guess is difficult to sand


So i layered Nene head with geso and sanded it again


Then sprayed it with Mr. surfecer 1000, i like how it turned but some sratches remain


I sprayed it again but it was so windy in my roof and Nene head fall from the table it was a shock!
Lucky me only the ear was damaged uff


I used geso again and sand it, now i sprayed again but i need to make it more smooth to erase the scratches and spray again.



Hope to end it soon

 

Xyria: Thanks! ^^

Silk: Haha yeah, its a curse! XD it was easy to repair, just sinked a little.
Oh the Mr. base white is liquid putty, the same as Mr. white surfacer in spray. Im trying it now in the scratches over the layers i applyed with the spray and it works very well! just a little sand and a last spray and the scratches gone!
Oh no! i don't mind ^____^ thanks for comment and i think Nene head deserves to be finished XD have waited a long time.

isa_cuomo: Thanks! i have that problem too, i just have sandpapers and one 3m sponge fine, so i sanded it with the most fines of them and a exacto blade for the line of the mouth.
How is Aimee's body going? soon i'll start to do a body too ^^ but im fighting to cut the head cape now... i hate sculpey is so hard to sand and cut.

Distractus: Thanks! ^o^

 

Finally a update! ^^

Im working on two bodys now, need to make that bodys for the neck hole of my Nene head. I want to make the torso in 2 or 3 joints, hip joint is tempting me.
Here are some pics of making...







Now the male body...




Waaa! ashamed for show penis...

Now together, he still don't have a head




Please tell me if anatomy is right, still don't start to sand, i think i need to slim their backs and... is his umm... you know, his anatomy allright?
I don't have a male bjd so i don't know how he will look.

 

soshi: yeah ^^ sorry i didn't say it, by the way thanks for the advice about styrofoam, how did you knew it was dangerous to bake it?

isa_cuomo: Thanks! im getting tired of sanding XD but im happy to finally start to do bodys

 

Finally i could make a mold and a casted head, it have some bubbles in the top and on ears XD

I think with only 2 drops of dye the flesh tone would be ok but i did the double of resin too >__< so is so pale like cream color

Original and casted head.
I'll make a quick makeup but im starting to deslike her eyes

 

hello_sunshine: Thanks! I make up her now ^^

zidora: Oh she looks smooth because i almost used all the Mr White surfacer can on her head XD haha
Thanks for your comments, makes me feel better since i thought her eyes were bad done ^^u
How is going your girl?

 

zidora: Thanks a lot ^^ the skin color was accidental i wanted to make her more normal skin but i think this works also XD Yeah i carved a hole inside the head to move magnets in a straight line. Thanks for the advice about the body back
Yeah molds! T^T is comforting when we get to that phase.
