B.J.D. = Ball Jointed Dolls

Where you take dolls such as this and that...

SPOILERX



Have you ever thought about doing this?
Did you even know they existed like this?
Did you know you can do this with Barbie Dolls, Monster High, and other jointed or non jointed dolls?
Did you know you can "make" your own if you take the time and patience to do so?
You can make hair out of yarn.
Use acrylic paint for hair color.
You can even use your own shampoo/conditioner on dolls (barbie, monster high, etc) to clean the hair.

Nova_Alchemist: BJD = Ball Jointed Dolls

pretty dolls without make up, eyes, hair, etc and then you create it.

Immy:

Oh! Yeah, I knew about them
I have a roommate (my ex's new gf) and she makes her own dolls like that.
When she has a free one, she's offered to teach me as well ^~^

Nova_Alchemist: if I can find the right guy one. i want to make our ocs & kakashi & sasuke. though the girls will be created first :P

Hi there, I like your snowman ^_^ so cute.

Also I'm trying to get into this myself. I wouldn't mind a mini me I can create in all the outfits I would love to dress up in but cannot afford with prices. Plus I LOOOVE taking pictures of things. So setting up scenes would be interesting and fun.

Hardest part is finding the actual one you want.

stormiie 12-18-2018 08:00 PM

Hey, thank you. Didn't realise how few items I have! Better get saving haha.
The prices of clothes or the dolls? We have charity shops here where they are sold for super cheap. I can imagine all the fun that could be set up with the scenes.

Immy 12-18-2018 08:04 PM

The clothes for me IRL are just as if not more expensive seeing as it takes more material to make. A doll's clothing is about details and not so much material.

Nova_Alchemist 12-18-2018 08:07 PM

Immy:

Oh nice!
I hope you find the right ones~

Immy 12-18-2018 08:09 PM

Nova_Alchemist: thought it'd be fun to try :P
Going to need later on (not now, got too much going on trying to find the right dolls) for an updated version of silver if there is one. but like said its going to take me time.

Are going to make the clothes yourself? Also thank you for your kindness.

Immy 12-18-2018 08:33 PM

Very welcome.
And maybe? After holidays or I might just buy them, I have to have time to do this but I'd have to sew them by hand. I dont like sewing machines...well they don't like me lol

stormiie 12-18-2018 08:55 PM

I love sewing by hand. I have been petrified of sewing machines since school when a needle went through a girls finger. So all my clothing alterations have been done by hand. I need to sleep now, as I have a early start at work tomorrow. Hopefully be on tomorrow at some point.

I know work is quiet so I may pop on for a bit.

I used to be really into BJDs and I had three of them:
Soom Spinel
Angel of Dream Juli
and Puki Pong Pong @Fauxreal owns him now!


I ended up selling them a number of years ago. I have one BJD now, that's an alpaca. (of course!) I got it from here. I don't have any good pics of it cause it's still in the box and the faceup rubbed off partially in transport. I don't have my faceup supplies anymore and I need to a good place to display it. ;A;

Someday I might get more into them again. I think they're really cool. :3 I liked doing faceups on mine and sewing clothes.

Immy 12-18-2018 09:20 PM

Shion: If I can get my phone to link up to mene I'll see if I can upload my barbie & monster high images I've been tinkering with. It feels mean to cute the halfway XD but i do it anyways i wanna try actual doll eyes.

I agreed to layaway with a seller in florida. I'm iffy about sending money and not getting my item until I fully pay but I understand on their behalf too. I'ts $210 so lets hope I get xmas money next week :P cash wise.

Besides that, im only paying $50 every two weeks.
