Snejinka

Snejinka, Snej for short stands for Snowflake in russian. It's a Dust of Dolls Lünn - she's tiny, delicate, cute and very curvy^^ And I should be taking more pictures of her sometime.

 

And another one

Another BJD sculpt in progress, the third one that I call "The Cleric".
It's a sharp narrow and rather unhappy face.

I always start sculpting my faceplates with a something that looks very much like a mast from "Borderlands" or an alien face. I think I'll be sculpting an alien head sometime later one too :)

And one week later here's what I've got:

 Sorry for bad quelity pictures, but here's some more shots:

More sculpting in progress

New BJD faceplate sculpt! 

The Berserk sculpting process: face

I have been doing some BJD sculpting lately, determined at last to get this project going and  done.

And man that's one hella time-consuming activity. There is much to do and I don't think I'll be able to finish the prototype this summer.

The faceplate though is almost ready to be cast in resin:

The head is 7-7.5 inches. Eyes should be 12mm with a smaller iris, or oval 10mm.

The doll should be around ~55cm tall. 

Back to business!

I've been away, moving a to a new place and being busy, so that this blog is not even close to up-to-date!
I'm back to 5 BJD, my 3 usual Zaolls, a WIP project and a grim grey little buddy that got all lace and ruffles lately:

Butterfly fish

Painted at last:D

Darn.

I'm not sure if I have already stated this, but I have indeed decided to stop getting new BJDs, Fish was supposed to be my last one. On the other hand I'm not yet sure I really want to keep him...

And the more I stick to  spending less time on BJDs the more I realize how much I want another white-skinned 50cm doll >__<
Sharing my pain :D

Demon face

I just wanted to change his face-up, but I ended up modding the whole face...not sure about how it came up but it did. Now I have the rest of his little chubby body to paint.

Faceup tutorial

I happened to put together something that looks like a face-blushing tutorial.

Kinda made me realize what I really need to improve myself^^

Little Fish

I'm done with the body carvings, woot.

Still need to paint those and re-paint the face too.

I  don't know if I should carve the face as well though...

Let darkness reign

BJD 2013

That is what my BJD colleaction looks like this year :) I feel like it goes in the right direction. 

I still have more work to do on it though, especially on the two in the middle.

Unclassified species

Sorry for all that Vice spam.

But - it has been such a long time sine I enjoyed taking pictures of him, that I had to get tones of them!

Some work is in progress.

Still not done yet. But most of the carving is over!

 

All of a sudden

I have been thinking about opening a Zaoll mouth but never dared to do it. And suddenly...

I can't say if it really works well, but I now am fond of his cheekbones and teeth :D

At least, Vice is back, and I don't totally dislike how he turns out on pictures!
