Make a Ball Jointed Doll

I have created a doll creation forum for all those wanting to make dolls, any kinds of dolls, please join and we can all help eachother out, maybe even inspire eachother into creating other types of dolls too.

I am making one, I have formed all of the parts that I need, arms legs two torso parts and the joints, all I need to do now is fine tune them to make them fit properly, so excited!

Making miniature dolls has been my hobby now I want to grow and do something much more difficult. Sculpting is good for my creative sole. I’m at the retirement age and need to stay creative and busy.

I’m interested for doing a Ball Jointed Doll and i need tips and pages where i can get those and i would looove to see pics from dolls people have made themself.

hi

Its neat to find others who want to create these amazing dolls as well ! I hope we all can try and have fun ! good luck everyone.
this book might be of help : Yoshida Style Ball Jointed Doll making guide. and also there are forums and sites like http://www2d.biglobe.ne.jp/~dhnoah/make_00.htm

i am so going to try this! If anybody knows where i can get some tools to do this contact me.

Right, lets try this out/

This is going to be my project for the holidays that are coming up.
But I have to say with the two heads I have practised making – I can’t say it will be the prettiest doll in the world >_>...

Didn’t they used to have a forum at Den of Angels? They must have taken it away – there used to be a lot of good advice there, and it was the source of inspiration that made me want to make one of them since I never actually thought it was possible before XD
