Yoo~

Hey!
Few-month lurker, first time poster!
I'm Kaizu, 30's something, 2D artist that makes my money through traveling to (mostly anime) conventions. I joined DOA to get some insight about how to start with BJD's, I just started with my first few this year but I'm so excited about them I really dove headfirst into the hobby along with my roommates. Gotta customize some dolls into my OCs!

I bought my first doll, a Dika Doll Abel, earlier this year. While waiting for him to show up I snatched up a secondhand Resin Soul girl (maybe Song? wasn't entirely sure how to check!) so I got to work with her and clean her up and restring her while I was waiting for my much bigger new boy! Looking forward to posting pics about them~

I know this is off-topic and belongs in brigadoon but I also bought a resin printer and want to get into printing my own dolls. I read the rules so I won't say much more about it on this thread, but if I grab any pics or have any process questions, I might post them over there.

I expect to mostly be hanging around reading some project journals and posting some progress pics of my own~

Let me know if there's anything I've missed in the rules mentioned here, or feel free to ask me any questions you've got!

Thanks a lot for having me, good to meet you all~

 

I love seeing how creative everyone is with all the things people 3D print for their dolls. It's so cool, I'd love to sculpt and print props but there's definitely a learning curve for someone who's only ever done 2D art hahaha. Time to get to practicing 3D sculpting!
