I think there’s some improvement, or am I imagining things? Someone gave me the tip of baking after finishing each facial feature before beginning the next one ..so I did that

This is fimo soft

Plus some dolls I’m working on & some of the best tea Iv ever had 😋

Practicing with fimo soft

These are my first serious attempts at sculpting with polymer clay, specifically with doll making in mind

I hope to increase my skills 1000 fold over time, but for now I’m also kind of in love with these two early faces Iv managed to sculpt 😻🥰

I posted a week or two ago with a bid doll blueprint I had drawn up ….finally got some clay !

I am schizoaffective, this is my art :)

I’m really enjoying this …some much more than I ever enjoyed drawing ..I’m amazed I didn’t try this sooner

I usually use a shampoo/conditioner combo and braid at night …that’s pretty much it !

second pot today, so delicious…anyone else tried this one before? What did you think ?

What can we do to improve my lip sculpting abilities? Any advice to improve the eyes?

Thank you

Up until I ran out of clay ! I only ordered a little 2oz block to try it out …and my suspicions have been confirmed:I love sculpting !

I used fimo soft

This is what I got done before running out of clay (more is on its way !)

My end goal is to make bjd dolls and fantasy reborn dolls with weighted cloth bodies (as opposed to silicone bodies)

Thanks for looking

This isn’t the first thing Iv ever sculpted but almost..and first time with polymer clay

I’m schizoaffective that’s why I posted here ;)

How am I doing ? I feel like I just can’t get the hip joints and legs right …figuring out the measurements for each little thing is making me a little nutty, I could use some advice if anyone has anything to share ? Things to pay attention to ? How important is the blueprint? How to approach the profile view?

Oh yea, this is for a 17” doll

Thank you !

Is this a kokeshi doll?

Are there any identifying features as to where this doll originated ?

Thank you 🙏
