Create Perfect Miniature Hands and Feet for Your Dolls
Ever since I started to create porcelain ball-jointed dolls, I’ve been fascinated with sculpting miniature features and getting them as detailed as possible. I feel like the doll's hands, feet, and facial features give so much character. But to get them right is always a challenge, especially if you sculpt on a small scale! So today, I want to share my favorite techniques for sculpting miniature features.

      Depends on the material you’re using to sculpt the doll. But acrylic paint is usually great as a base and soft pastels (ground to the dust) for blushing/shadows. Also use matt varnish to seal the paints.

    Thank you for such a beautiful video. I am just starting to get into air dry clay and sculpting. I was wondering if you had any advice for the layering part. Most people say that the layers of air dry clay have to be the same level of wetness to adhere. Your sculptures seem to be proving them wrong but I'm not sure if there's a trick to it. When I've watched some other people try to work in layers they ended up with clay that wouldn't stick together well once dried. They even used water, slip, and did scoring but still had problems with keeping it all together. How do you avoid this problem?

    • @Nymphaidolls
      @Nymphaidolls 18 дней назад

      Use stone clay like La Doll and always use water when sculpting. I wet the area before adding fresh clay and use additional water to smooth the clay out. Also, sculpt in thin layers. These are the main tips. I never had any problem sculpting like this and get good results. Sculpting in layers gives more control when handling the clay, so I can be more precise when sculpting small details. ☺️

    • @nutmeg9892
      @nutmeg9892 18 дней назад

      @@Nymphaidolls Thank you so much for the response and advise. Is there a certain level of dryness beyond which you wouldn't add more wet clay? Have you ever layered over fully dried clay by just rewetting? I appreciate you helping this newbie out with your knowledge.

      @Nymphaidolls 18 дней назад

      @@nutmeg9892 Yes, I always add more clay on fully dry sculptures! It takes me weeks and sometimes months to sculpt one doll, so it’s really dry by then. This wouldn’t work when sculpting with traditional clay, so I think this is why it’s a strange concept. But La Doll clay is great for that. 👌

    What do you think of Creative Paperclay? It's a lot cheaper than La Doll but i noticed that it tends to have a noticably rougher texture, paper flyaways and people say its harder to create small detail. Would it be okay to use Paperclay as a base and then a layer of ladoll on top of it to have the smooth texture and malleability of ladoll/premier? For a larger doll like a 1/3 size doll, i thought it would be best to save the more expensive clay for finer details only.

    • @Nymphaidolls
      @Nymphaidolls Месяц назад

      All that you noted in your comment is correct. I used it for a while when I couldn’t find La Doll, early in my career. It does have a lot of paper pulp in it, so even when you sand everything it still has those tiny paper fibers visible. You can minimize it by coating the sanded sculpture with water using a soft brush. La Doll has those fibers as well, but not as much. You can definitely use Paperclay for the base and then finish with La Doll. Just use enough water while sculpting to make sure everything sticks together.

Make sure your sculpture dries evenly, if you’re in a very dry environment, cover the sculpture with plastic bag to slow the drying process

I had a friend, a big tree. I would climb up on it and do my homework sitting in it. I talked to it and touched it gently. One day - just like your forest - my tree and all his friends were cut down and I cried bitter tears. I was laughed at... The pain of nature has become too much for me and I have isolated myself in my bedroom. My heart breaks on the 4th of July, when here in the USA, people celebrate with fireworks. I know what they do to birds and other wildlife.... I have completely isolated myself with my dolls in my bedroom. 💔 The pain is too much.
