🎨"Really didn't change much at all~"
Been having big lore revelation thoughts about Fable lately. Yesterday I found myself thinking, "but what if the reshell actually IS him a few years older? Would justify his new appearance story-wise!"
So, seeing what firmer brows, darker tones and his new eyeshape will do to him😊 (And had fun doing some traditional color again, like I said I should! >w<)
Tumblr media
New eyeshape ?? YEAH, based on my current plans for him with a Myou Chelses!! Been looking around for the right sculpt to bring him home again, and I think it's about to finally happen!! ^w^
When I first got him (the doll) his character was 12, I think I was 14 at the time. And by the time I was 16, he'd evolved into being 14. The other day I was writing a little about him, about discovering he hadn't aged all that much, just a little, despite the decade-long slumber in his magical forest, hehe. So then it hit me; The reshell is an opportunity to not just bring him back- It'll actually be his next slightly grown version 😊❤️ Satisfying little detail: The Chelses is 3cm taller than his old shell >w< Cute~

My process of creating a BJD for the first time
I sculpted my own BJD-inspired little doll for the first time! Including sewing his outfit, I worked on the project over the course of December til March.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He's based on my artistic fan-rendition of dr. Nitrus Brio from the Crash Bandicoot video game series, and I'm planning to make a few of his colleagues as well! 😊 Here's some reference pics for context, for those who don't know the character.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Read on if you want to see the process of his creation!
(Heads-up; Contains censored doll nudity and loose body parts and all that~)
He's only 19cm tall (which is uncommon for adult-type BJDs (they'd usually be 40-70 cm, that's 1/4 or 1/3 scale)) and his technical design is a little crude/simplified compared to the beautiful mechanics of the BJDs I used to own, but I'm really happy with how he came out. It was quite the magical experience, because I haven't sculpted much before, nor have I sewn on this level of detail.
Tumblr media
I figured the smaller scale would make him more easy to handle and less intimidating for a first project, but it made it a little difficult to work with at times as well!
Tumblr media
My very first attempt was fun but had a lot of issues, I decided to start over before painting. The (extremely cheap) clay had shrunk massively, he was nowhere near hollow enough, he was a disproportional mess xD
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And since he needs to be to scale with his friends later on, I decided it would be a valuable prototype. UvU
Tumblr media
So all that happened during my Christmas break! From then on, I continued working on him little bits at a time. Quite surprisingly I managed to stay engaged and dedicated XD
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This time I got actual doll-grade paperclay, which made so much difference. Amazing stuff. It was again very satisfying to see his shape forming. And this time he made it to the paint stage!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
After drying out properly, I coated him first to set the clay, then used acrylic paint to give him his base skintone all over. The first layer, applied with a brush, was a blotchy mess. :x
Then I thought of sponge-dabbing it on instead, which worked wonderfully! I only realized while doing it, that it reminded me of how I applied my own bodypaint with a sponge for a blue-skinned cosplay 😊 Must've subconsciously gotten the inspiration from there lol
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
After his base coat, I could no longer resist and strung him😂💖
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I realized it might get messy later on if I'd refuse to unstring and restring him for further painting/blushing and coating. But I figured it'd be good enough and I was having too much fun having him in his strung form XDD <33
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It turned out okay, even after spray coating him strung. ^^
Tumblr media
Painted his face, cleaned the paint off his bolts, glued eyelashes on 💕
Tumblr media
And finally, gave him bodyblush for a little more life to him, love it!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then I spent many nights sewing his lab coat, undies, pants, gloves and boots! 😊😊😊
Tumblr media
I now consider him finished, and ready for cool shoots! All of this really made me relive my love for BJDs and all the crafting around it. Looking forward to make him some friends, but for now it's kinda nice to have time for other projects again as well 😂

🌸Revive🌸
Helloes! Getting back into BJD after having owned 6 precious little resin friends 2009-2012, and having grown to miss them dearly.
I'm going to be reuploading a selection of fave photos from my old Deviantart gallery here, as well as recovered forgotten content I've never uploaded before, and ramblings and updates on the new chapter in my BJD journey!
Would love to make some new BJD friends along the way~
