~Restringing Tutorial~ : BJDcollectasy.com:

 "Learn how to clean and re-string your doll.
This guide will show how easy it can be. 

Don’t be intimidated!

In the tutorial, she was disassembled, cleaned with a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, and re-assembled. 

The re-assembly of your doll can vary somewhat by company. 

 The general information in the video is true for most BJDs."

~Paperclay Doll Eyes~

~Paperclay Doll Eyes~ : BJDcollectasy.com: "Making Paperclay eyes for your doll is very simple. The eyes shown here were colored using pencils and acrylic paint, but feel free to explore other materials and use your imagination! The Paperclay used here was purchased at an A.C, Moore craft store, and it is easy to find at art and craft supply places. The Mr. Super Clear used to seal the eyes came from Junkyspot. The paints and pencils came from Dick Blick."

'via Blog this'

 1. Roll some Paperclay into little beads.  

Since this takes very little time and uses very little clay,  make a bunch of paper beads.  

To gauge the size of the beads, compare them to a doll eye of the same size that you want to make. 

Then set all the beads aside to dry. 

Usually they dry in one day, but drying may take longer depending on bead size and atmospheric conditions.

2. Select two balls to use for the eyes.  You can test them in the doll first to see how they fit.

To work on them, you may find it helpful to stick the bead in a kneaded eraser which will hold it in place.

3. A screw or nail head can be used as a guide to trace an iris onto the bead.

Compare the screw or nail head size to the iris of a doll eye of similar size

to see whether it is the right size for your project.

4. Draw or paint your eye. Here is one in-progress. This one is being colored with pencils.

5. After you finish both eyes, spray them with Mr. Super Clear flat lacquer.

This protects the eyes.

The eyes could also be glossed.

Many art materials can be used in making your eyes,

and the looks you can achieve are limitless.

Have fun :0)

How to Make Noah's Doll

How to Make Noah's Doll [English]: "How to Make Noah's Doll"

'via Blog this'

Ever wanted to make a BJD ?

The link HERE will show you a making process of Noah's ball-jointed dolls step by step.

What is a ball-jointed doll?

It is a kind of a doll with ball-and-socket joints in its body, arms and legs. Limbs and head are joined together by loops of elastic.
There are many variations in the way to join each part of a doll.
Fig.01 shows the construction of Noah's doll.

Arms are attached by elastic running through the armholes and torso.
Each leg has its own piece of elastic, and in both legs loops of elastic run from the ankle up through the knee, the leg-hole and up to the head, both loops being hung on a hook inside the neck.
Other ends of the elastic band are attached to the small "S" shaped hook and hanged on the wire strung inside the wrists and ankles respectively.

No doll can stand up by itself when it hasn't been made well-balanced in its construction.


(1) Drawing up a plan

For a start, draw up a plan in same size, the front and the side, taking account of the balance of each part, and the size of joints. This doll will be 2 feet tall.

(2) Making the core

Here we don't use a mold. We introduce the way of using Styrofoam (foam polystyrene) for the core.
Cut the all parts from the lump of Styrofoam in a size 10mm smaller than finished size.

If you can find Styrofoam balls in adequate size on the market, you may use them for joints.

 (04) All the parts are arranged except hands and feet, which don't need the core.
The neck will be made after the shape of the head is settled and then attached to the head.

Put marks the position of features in the face, and the top and bottom, right and left in the limbs.
