🍎 About the making of Clara 🍏

There are some imperfections & design oversights- but ultimately I’m very happy with how she turned out.

Learnings...

With the model- I wish I had extended the neck a bit deeper into the head so that she could looks further up/down without gapping showing. And I accidentally totally hollowed out the limbs instead of creating a spherical cavity- so that made stringing this together a nightmare.

I learned that inserted pieces (the tusks) should not be an EXACT fit. There's probably some micro warping in the physical print, and resin is rigid/inflexible. So the insert pieces didn't fit! Luckily that was easy to fix- I just filed the holes to be a little bigger.

The next biggest issue was cracking in the clear coat. I had to redo all of the limbs because of this. We found that simply doing several very light layers (over the course of 48 hours) prevented cracking.

I’m also having paint chipping at the joints. This is the only doll where I’ve had this issue. The only different factors in this project were the type of spray paint, & that I didn’t do much hand painting. Parts getting a bit beat up at joints is common in BJDs so it is what it is IMO.

The last challenge of note was designing the clothing. I originally wanted a very ruffled dress. But at this scale, and with the fabric I was using, it created so much bulk that looked odd. So I settled for a simple dress with a few darts to add some movement. To add some more interest back into the outfit, I ended up creating her that apple bag and sketchbook!

Meet Clara! She loves apples and is learning to paint. I’ll share a bit about the process of creating her in my next post. 🍎

Im sure its a minority but looking at the comments of waynes hl2vrai short about the 6 year old floating away in a balloon made me realize theres some people who don't know its a reference. Some people are acting like its some drifloon pokemon thing or a totally original bit.

It is YOUR ☝️ duty to remind people that a 6 year old is floating away in a balloon in the shape of a UFO was a thing that actually happened

[revumajiosu]

yes and they made a documentary about it and honestly we STILL dont know if that bit was done for intentional publicity or was genuinely an accident

[eclogues]

i havent done anything or been anyone ever

I found the paper animation for this in my closet so I thought I'd put a process video together.

This was how I designed the animation style for Spiderman Punk in Across The Spider-Verse.
