First cast of the new mould (didn’t have enough resin to fill the whole thigh). Got a bubble stuck between two vents, so I guess I’ll have to keep an eye on that, hopefully it was just a fluke. The colour is pretty nice, it would probably pop with a dash of magenta, but I don’t think the brand sells it. #bjd #bjddoll #resincasting #inhumanart #artemisiabjd https://www.instagram.com/p/CPBl82SlutP/?utm_medium=tumblr
I’m casting again, I hope this goes well.
Okay. So polyurathane resin and powdered pigment doesn’t work. The pigment sinks to the bottom. Admittedly it makes for a cool effect on the head, but obviously it’s bound by gravity and tied to how the piece is positioned in the silicone.
I’ll stick to liquid pigment for now, but maybe I’ll come back to it when I have some more experience.
I got a pressure pot!
The result isn’t perfect yet, but I think with some more attempts and some more post-work, I can get to a quality worth selling.
I actually quite like the colour of this one too, what do you think?
I think I’m going to accept that I need a pressure chamber. As much as I vacuum pressure the resin and carefully pour it, I can’t prevent the damn bubbles.
First actual cast done!
I think the mould turned out okay, could probably due with another spruce at the bottom. Obviously there’s the bubbles, but I think I can get the bubbles out with some practice.
What do you think about the colour?
I did a dye test. The dye works well, could use a bit more blue, but the point was testing it, so it doesn’t matter. The test mould is already fucked up because it didn’t cure properly, so I’ll probably chop it up for filler later.
I got my first shipment of resin and some more silicone
Im a bit nervous, I hope this is going to work without a pressure chamber, because those things are scary and expensive. Just got to woman up and try, there’s nothing else to do then just doing it.
I decided to try it out on an extra head that was damaged, I tried to fix it up a little, but it’s not going to be part of the final sculpt anyway.
Here’s the mould, I cut it open in the front of the head instead of the back, oops, bug that’s what trials are for. If also seems the silicone didn’t get mixed quite right since parts of it remained sticky after curing, I think I’ll mix in several small batches next time
And the first cast, I mixed too much resin, but I think it turned out better then expected for a first time. I’ll change some things for the next mould, like the position of the spruces and I’ll make it a 3 piece mould instead.

She is done!
Im done with the tedious work, now there’s only the hard work left, mainly the casting.
I’m leaning towards casting myself since I don’t think it’s economically viable to send it out of country for casting because of the shipping and import costs
Height: 41cm (52cm head to tail tip)
Head: 16.5cm
Eyes: 12mm
Sculpt name: Artemisia
Finally! I finished the tail. Took me way longer then I expected too considering how simple the pieces are. So that’s the tail in its glory, 19 pieces in all.
Now there’s only the arms, horns and knee joints left.
Oh, and fuck recasters.
Alright. 15 pieces done , 29 to go.
Now it’s mostly the small pieces left, arms, joints, horns and tail.
Alright, the hands and feet are done prepped!
5 pieces done, 39 to go...
Fuck recasters
I prefer hand sculpted dolls over 3d sculpted dolls because I feel handsculpted dolls have more personality because they are not 100% symmetrical. 3D sculpted dolls are very pretty, but flat to me. And they read more “doll” than “human ” to me. But I am a realism collector, so it might just be me

That is why I turn off the mirror modifier when I fine tune my 3d models, the problem isn’t 3d modelling on its own it’s the modelling method used,
Oh my! I’m #backonmybullshit it’s been well over 2.5 years since I worked on my doll #bjd #workinprogress #sanding #fuckrecasters https://www.instagram.com/p/B6EJ0g0lcQh/?igshid=1l15adfjeodi1
How long has it been? I don’t know.
But look! I’m doing a thing! I got some silicon and crystal resin, I don’t have a vacuum pot though, so let’s see how this goes.
I’m only doing dice now, but who knows in the future. Obviously I’m going to have to get a vacuum pot and a new dremel before even thinking about casting my doll.
So @inhuman_art has these cool #chocolate casts of the #doll face she is currently sculpting. Her Tumblr is inhuman-bjd, check it out she is a really nice #bjd.
