3D printed BJD doll creature

Here is a short story about the mother of the dragons monster (no, its definitely not the game of thrones  ;D)

Anyhow, the creature is a bjd 3D printed doll. I have bought the disassembled kit (in colour red) from the Etsy artist (DollArtbyJulie). The creature is small (~13cm tall), the mother (obitsu) is MSD size doll (42cm tall). The creature was very easy to paint, but it was difficult to erase mistakes off. I have tried to erase it with a pure acetone and got white marks, so I had to paint these marks with red acrylics  ;D The magic eraser does not work very well on the doll.

Anthro ball jointed doll (BJD) Little Minipin Hujoo rabbit face and body blushing

I was made aware that in one of my video's where I was painting my Hujoo cat Freya BJD doll I've missed out a section about the blushing. So, to remedy the situation I have created another video for the actual body blushing for one of my hujoo 1/8 dolls (made from ABS plastic). The rabbit is tiny and it was not easy to blush it.

Anyhow!

This is my way of face and body blushing for BJDs and obitsu dolls.
As I have mentioned previously, I use Humbrol 48 Matte acrylic spray varnish for priming and setting. I have employed various soft brushes (quality make up brushes are the best (IMHO), also natural fibres brushes pick the pigment better), soft pastels, sanding paper, melamine sponge, watercolour pencils, water and diluted acrylic paint. Also, I sometimes use damp/wet brush and dry sponge, as I believe it gives better control over the depths of the colours. Please note that this is NOT a teaching video but merely a demonstration of how I bring my dolls to live :) Enjoy!

See you soon!

Hujoo Nano Freya new outfit and amended face up

Nano Freya from Hujoo

She is 12 cm tall and she is so cute :P. I have changed her face up slightly, as originally I have painted her whiskers black and she looked like Hitler lol It is much better now I think. I have made the red dress + booties and blue kitty overall outfits for her, though the pullover under the blue overall and white dress were bought from etsy.

Meow!

Nano Freya BJD is playing with her food

Recently, I've fallen in love with ball jointed dolls. Though, I have decided to start small and see whether this new passion will grow into another hobby. Luckily, I still can enjoy making miniatures for the these dolls and will probably start using stashes of already made clay miniatures which I have never had a chance to sell or to finish properly.

My first pilot run photoshoot took place at my desk with my Nano Freya. She is made from ABS plastic (not from resin, like other ball jointed doll (BJD). She is 12 cm tall only and sooooo adorable. If you want to see me unboxing her please watch this youtube video.

Her eyes made by me. Her "face up" was a very quick affair, it took me less than 2 hours including setting the pastels and acrylics with a matt varnish. Her overall was made in 2 days, it was hard work for me, as I am not a seamstress by any means, and actually not particularly keen on sewing, though I thought that this doll deserves a hand stitched outfit:)

Here is the scene: "Playing with my food" (tins of "Whichkas" I've made from clay, labels are of my own design as well)

Mmmm... All for me!

ALL MINE!

No, please do not go, I will share my meal with you! I promise!

Thank you for reading :)
