Ball Jointed Dolls Thread #4

[Moonbreeze]

I finally made up my mind and ordered a Soul Doll Hunoi! First 1/4 BJD I'll be ordering! I only own a 1/6 Xaga and the Doll zone Big Dipper
Can't wait!

It sounds like the Momonita preorders will be at least another couple of months.  I am dying to meet my new girl!

[SaelaVe]

wow SaelaVe, that's an amazing face-up!

Thank you very much. ^_^

So apparently the government made my mind up for Rin. Found out we will have to pay taxes this year. Yuck!

I've been avoiding doing mine....I always have to pay...

Still really curious to know what the starry alpaca on the last page was. 

My birthday was on the 13th and TwistedRiver gifted me a gray hujoo nano rabbit. Haven't taken any photos as of yet but I need to soon. I'll ask TwistedRiver to post the photo she took of her dollies wishing me and my new hujoo a happy birthday. <3

Loving those gals Tiella, what sculpts are they if you don't mind me asking?


Not the best picture ever, but here are all my current BJDs, I've got one on layaway so the group will be gaining a big brother at some point.
Anyway, here are my bjd kids waiting for Hannah to get back from going out to brunch.

My Alpaca is an Alphie made by Cafe Zephyros.

The smaller bunny is a Realfee May from Fairyland and the bigger bunny is a Lovely Becky from Aileen Doll.

My 1/6 bjd prototypes are complete! At least the bodies. Still working on fashion, shoes, wigs, and all the other details. Progress pics soon!

I recently got some new outfits from Clear Lan-  I'm very happy with the fit and the quality! 

I really love the fashions that people make for their dolls- and I like to make stuff too but I'm not a very good (okay terrible) seamstress so I like to start with a basic dress and then just add embroidery/beads/do alterations-  I think these dresses are perfect for that!  I started working on this one already- it's not nearly done yet but I'm liking how it looks so far! 

The doll is from Marmite Sue/the Menagerie in "moonglass" - she's my first porcelain doll- I really like her (my wife finds my Marmite sue dolls including this one super creepy, but I think I like creepy dolls).

It is kind of a relief to not worry about leaving her in the sun or handling her and damaging the resin/paint.  But of course now I worry about her dropping and breaking (although according to the artist, if the break is bad she can actually re-fire her and mend breakages)  so that's pretty cool.

 I love your dress!  Did you hand embroider those flowers? I just finished some outfits for my two girls I got fro Christmas and  I wish I could do that for my girls. I can only make simple things to and that embroidery really pops on your dress

Thanks! Yes I did teh embroidery- I just used silver beading thread and various beads- I think adding beads and embroidery is a good way of making a super simple dress into something more special (especially if you are like me and your actual sewing skills are lacking)

Can't wait to see!

Here's what I have been up to: a BJD head I started about three years ago but decided to finally finish during the coming summer. I call them Kaiho. They are a 1/3 sized head that can use 8-9" wigs and 14-16mm eyes. I plan to have them cast in resin after September.

Neat. What bodies will you be using?
