How to make a miniature dessert from polymer clay for BJD MSD doll or for american girl scale doll


Fancy a sweet chocolate box for your MSD dolly?

 If you are keen to have a go and make this easy dessert from clay please check out my video how to:



This is an easy project for beginners in polymer clay. All you need is clay in 4 colours (brown, vanilla, green and red), square cutter (2cm) or just a square paper pattern, blade, texture sheet (if not, then do it manually with a dotting tool), liquid clay, rolling pin or pasta machine.

I have used fimo soft and premo sculpey. Liquid clay was Fimo gel. 
Gloss with any polyurethane varnish.





The model is Resinsoul MSD size doll Rong

Doll nudity ahead. Male BJD doll gets himself a penis

Well, I believe that there is nothing wrong with making a doll realistic. I have always wanted one of these dolls with detachable penises, but usually these dolls do not fit my preferred BJD scale or I just simply do not like their bodies/faces, so I have decided to sculpt a penis ...or two for my MSD and YoSD male dolls.

It was not overly complicated, I've just used my partner as a life model a picture from internet to give me some solid anatomical ideas. I have used polymer clay (FIMO doll). Then I have just added a bit of black wool roving for pubic hair.

So, here is Souldoll Vito Lester in his naked glory. I have attached his new part via a blob of white tack. The colour of the penis is slightly different, but I know that this part of the body usually is darker in comparison to the rest of the body.





And here are two little willies for comparison (the bigger one is obviously for MSD). My partner was adamant that both of them are too big for the scale. Yeah... right.

Please watch my video demonstration of making polymer clay doll using FIMO mold "Lilly"



Some comments about making this doll from the mold:
Hands and feet were ready to be modelled, though I found hands required more attention than feet. The upper body is incomplete. For me it would have been easier to make the whole torso from scratch, but for the purpose of the demonstration I have used the top part of the trunk from the mold.
Bear in mind that the back of the legs, as well, as the back of the top part of the torso required building up, though you can make them 3D whilst clay is still in the mold, but it could be tricky to maintain the correct proportion.
Speaking of which, what I liked about this mold is that the form helped me to keep the proportions right. I usually have problems with it.
I was surprised how detailed the face turned out. I did not do much to it sculpting wise, just inserted the eyes into the sockets, painted the face and glossed. That was it.

One thing about using a mold is that you will need to be very patient and up to date with your clay "smoothing" skills.

Here are some pictures of the completed doll. She is a red head, as I used to be one :D The hair is made from the wool (obtained from HobbyCraft store). The wool was simply glued on to her head.
The dress is made from polymer clay and textured using a texturing sheet.
