Smiley/Joris got primed. He still neads few layers of primer. I just love how his expression changes depending from which angle he is observed. #bjd #bjdmaker #bjdsculpting #dollsofinstagram #bjdmaking #sculpting #dollsculpting #dollmaking #wipdoll #wip #wipbjd #artdoll #doll #artistdoll #swampruler #swampbjd

Do you recognize him? This is smiley, Joris. Finally finished! I will spray primmer on him and he will be absolutely ready. It has been a year and a half, since I have started to sculpt him.

He is msd sized. 12mm Pabol eyes. Sculpted using air drying clay.

I hope to get him pro casted. So if anyone is interested in him please follow this blog or my Instagram

¼ bjd head I am working right now. He is an adult mini.

He is almost finished. I need to just spray primmer on him. After this, I can search for a caster to cast him in resin.

WIP: Joris

 post 2/2

 Finally, I have decided for the name for my smiley fella.

Some of my rambling about sculpting process under read more. ^_^’

So firstly, let me talk about the name. Joris is the tenth son of the main Baltic deity Perkūnas and adopted son of another main deity Velnias. He himself is the deity of spring, fertility and first thunder.

Woking on him was so frustrating, sometimes. I had sculpted and re sculpted, added and removed nose, ears and mouth numerous times. Every time I used a mirror, I wanted to cry. The more symmetric I tried to make him be, the more asymmetric he became. Just a week ago, I wanted to throw him in the trash bin and start anew. I am happy I had not done it, though. One day, solution to my problem just popped in my head that I am removing and adding in the wrong place. After that breaking point, everything started to go the way I wanted. Right now, the expression is just right: smiling eyes, plump lips with a small smile.

At the end of this week, I will spray primer on him and smooth all the rough parts. I have already started on a body for him. After priming it too, finally, I will be able to work on joints.

WIP: JORIS

So after a month or so of silence from me I can finally show some results. I had to resculpt almost everything, but results left me more that content.

Post 1/2. More photos to come today.

[swampbjd]

Some phone photos from last night. I have corrected the shape of the eyes, and now they are symmetrical. I reshaped the nose too.

WIP

I have started this smiley fella this year. He is supposed to be a slim MSD sized boy.

I did not think of a name for him yet. And a lot of work still needs to be done. Eyes are not symmetrical, I need to redo the nose and the mouth. But the expression of the face is the one I wanted

Anyway, sculpting is going well. I used a new clay, Mungyo Sculpt Dry. I like it a lot more, than Jovi, Darwi Roc, or any other clay I had used before. It dries faster, sticks perfectly to dried parts, and most importantly, it is easy to cut and sand.

I love him! I especially like how you’ve sculpted his eye shape—so warm and friendly! I look forward to seeing more progress photos in the future!

Please keep up the good work! :D

[swampbjd]

Thank You! 😃

I, truly, went for a warm, friendly and happy expression. 

I’m happy people liked him.

I am not dead. 😜

I wanted to post about him a long time ago. I have started to sculpt him in 2015 spring. He is my long running project. 2016 year was not very productive for me. I have barely sculpted anything.But this year i plan to finally finish him. 

He is made of darwi Roc, an air drying clay. He takes 12mm eyes and is a SD+ head.

WIP. Sculpting body. Process pictures.

Well, at least it stands on its own. Right now I have cut it into pieces to make joints. After the joints will be made, I will add final details, resculpt feet, and hands, make it symmetric.

Material: JOVI, DARWI ROC.
