My beloved Jackie!

She is my Creole baby from Louisiana. All my dolls get a small piece of me in their lore and Jackie gets the tiny piece I left somewhere in the Bayou when I moved out. She speaks French and ASL (and some English after she went to college)

Jackie is a customized 26 with a light faceup (freckles and blush) and a discontinued zazoudolls wig. the necklaces are all from @/allldolledup on Instagram (middle 2 were custom made for Jackie!). the belt is a necklace from the 80s. all the clothes are handmade but I got them secondhand so I do not know the artist. :( shoes are the original Kit meet shoes.

im thinking something like this, but im not sure about the head and neck joints. its going to be hard to make them seem elegant without gaps- obviously this version just has the pieces overlapping so you dont see the gaps.

i accidentally made the body on this test one too wide, but i think you can see the vision.

My hope is to eventually figure out how to make a jointed doll with snap together joints and this one seems like a good candidate? many of the joints don't need to be proper ball joints and only need to be hinges.

The blue lines are sections that need hinges that go back and forth. Now, I could do the entire thing like that, but ideally I think a ball semi-joint on the shoulder/hip and possibly the hooves would help a lot with posing, so that the joints can be slightly angled outwards or inwards depending.

The head/neck is the hardest bit. I'm thinking that a hinge joint that raises it up and down with a separate ball joint that twists or tilts the head. im not sure if that makes sense? It cant be a standard ball joint like a doll I think because the neck is too thick on a horse, plus the neck should really be "ovular" and not a cylinder.

no thoughts, head empty.

like this is with the gap, but if you add a stifle joint at the bottom of the thigh you could reduce the gap:

this is basically what the Breyer toys that I was posting earlier seem to have done:

So, I'm not sure how many people know that saran doll hair is made by only one company, Asahi-Kasei. The link above is to a page showing their standard hair colors

These are the thermal color change options

and these are the glow-in-the-dark

A toy company can pay for a custom hair color, but that's apparently so expensive/requires such a large quantity order that they almost never do that. (And a supplier of doll hair to customizers is going to be even less able to afford it.)

When you see a picture of a new doll and aren't sure of the hair fiber, sometimes the color can be a clue, because saran is available in such a relatively limited number of colors--so, if the hair on the doll is a color not on the Asahi-Kasei site, then you know it's not saran.

Looks like these links are all dead now. I'll place copies of the images under the cut, in the same order as the links
