Yessss, I miss your videos. Bringing me back to the 'good ol bjd days'.
Side note, what a great video! Seriously one of the best informational videos recently on the BJD hobby, thanks for taking the time and $$ to make this!
Thank you so much!! Yeah I am trying to get back into the BJD video game and such! Yeah I have always wanted to test out different sealants and I hope it can help anyone in the hobby that is starting off new.
I'm SO happy to have found this video. Been searching all day for a good MSC alternative specifically for doll faceups and the Tamiya is available locally. Will DEFINITELY be trying it. Thanks so much!
Ahh thank you for this!!! Actually I use Testors and I really like it. It comes off nicely ^^
Ohhhh nice!! Do you use the flat coat or the dullcote?
Thank you so much for testing these out! I have also used Liquidtex Matte Medium and Matte Varnish instead. I would use Matte Medium between layers and the varnish to seal. I know these can also be used with an airbrush machine, so I have bottles of both matte and gloss versions. On a side note, if you are simply looking to seal a body (not blush it), would you disassemble a doll? Previously I have unstrung Hujoo Mini Freya when I blushed her, but I am daunted by the amount of additional parts in a MSD.
Oh that's awesome you have used the Liquitex products! I was wondering about those too! So I would always recommend taking a doll apart if you want to get a real thorough spray. You can spike the parts on a empty cardboard box and spray all angles. But I will be super honest and say that I am like the laziest person ever and I just do it whole and flip them like a pancake.
@@AsenvaBJD An issue with liquidtex matte medium between layers is that it can catch dust. So if I take a break, I'd store the resin in a container.
I am also lazy and with the shortage of elastic lately, I'll probably pancake them at different poses.
I started into the wonderful world of dolls with monster high faceups, and Testors Dull Cote. I have to say i love it. Or works great and is widely available and the price is RIGHT. But when i tried MSC, obviously i liked it more, but there wasn’ta huge huge difference in my opinion. Great video, your quite informative and very likable. ❤️
Thanks for watching! I love testing new things out and I try to be budget friendly too if I can ❤️❤️❤️ thanks for watching!
Amazon has Mr Super Clear and I can vouch for it totally, 110%. My oldest Monster High is still looking really good and she's a ghost w heavy black eye makeup. She's about 7 years old
Found your video today, im about to seal my first ever doll and paint her body and face very soon :) thank you!
Super Helpful!
Awesome! Glad I could help!!
Late comment, but...I have that Vallejo spray and I found it's not very sensitive to humidity. I sprayed this stuff on right after rain and it dried just fine, I just had to wait a little longer (I recommend at least half an hour). My floating head still has that rainy day faceup and it's holding up well so far, after a few weeks.
Ohhhhhhhhhh nice! That is really good to know! I feel like a lot of people know the airbrush version of it so I was curious to see how it was :)
How's it doing nowwwww???😍
@@ookipuki Still holds up well. I've also done other faceups with it that also hold up. It's a good sealant, really.
thank you SO MUCH! It's my first time doing body blushing and a faceup myself on an actual doll I plan to use, so this is really, really helpful.
I am so glad my video could help!!! :D
This needs more views
I love your videos ❤
You should give Army Painter's Matte a whirl sometime. It's a wargames company like GW, but i find (in my climate) it's even matte-r than Citadel.
Not on vinyl thou. Then sticky-head-curse strikes at times.
Ohhhh sounds good 😯 yeah I heard purity seal is gone RIP and it sucks because I really liked them. I'm trying to find similar options ❤️
@@AsenvaBJD Games Workshop is still making Citadel matte sealers as far as i know, they might have just changed the name. I know they went through a packaging change on their stuff a while back.
@@siead :o I think the newer version is called Munitorum varnish and some peeps have said it is more satin feeling. I do want to try it out for myself along with the one that you suggested. Is it the anti-shine that you've used?
@@AsenvaBJD yeah. Been using it almost exclusively for.. older than i'll admit to being lol
This was so incredibly helpful! Thank you so much!!!
Glad I could help !
I started with Testors and the only issue I had was that over time it does yellow. However, despite not being UV protected, the resin underneath yellowed less than un sealed resin.
Ohhh that's good to know. Was it this same testors I used in the video?
Same here, everything you said. Testors dull cote is awesome for faceups
Hi!! Beginner here, what if I don’t have gas masks or the one like yours in the video? Are there any other safe alternatives?
You should make BJD ASMR. It would be soo good!
Hahaha that is a great suggestion! I actually did it in a Twitch stream once haha
Does the Americana acrylic spray work?
This might be a dumb question - will these sealants work on monster high/vinyl and plastic dolls? I have been using MSC for my MH faceups (and will probably continue to use it for resin bjds). But I want to change from MSC for the MH dolls because it is just so toxic. Thank you for the help!
Can I ask you something 🥺? Is it necessary to apply varnish on the face of the doll before making the face up?
If yes, why is it important?
I want to know because I’m new to this hobby
Hi, I'm new to this hobby as well, but to what I heard about so far, the answer is yes, it is important to apply the sealant even before making a face up, not just between layers or at the end. I believe it's important partly to protect the original surface of the doll and to be able to clean off the face up properly if you ever wanted to completely redo it. The other reason would be what she mentioned at the end of the video as well, it provides a better surface for the pastels, brings out more colors too, I'd assume the original resin surface might be too slippery plastic, while the sealant creates this more matt paper like surface the pastel needs. I hope this helps, I'm waiting for a practice doll at the moment to try making a face up, it's a fun hobby!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This might be a dumb question , but how necessary is it to unstring a doll in order to successfully body blush? I really want to body blush my doll once she arrives, but I'm terrified of taking her apart and then struggling to put her back together. This will be my first bjd and I'm somewhat nervous lol.
I’m not going to lie….. I’m the laziest person ever lol and I used to body blush my dolls too and honestly would not take them apart. It’s more challenging to seal since it’s bigger as a whole but you can flip it like a pancake 😝
@@AsenvaBJD Good to know, thank you!
Quite a silly question, but I am a beginner. Are you supposed to use sealant before or after actually painting the face up on? Sealants confuse me a lot when used on dolls, so please excuse me.
Sealants add a layer of texture to the surface so that the paint stays on, so you want to spray your doll before you start and every time you want to 'save your work' with thirty minute intervals between each spray.
@@lulu_749 Thank you, so much.
How i wish there was some alternatives to priming and sealing. I hate spraying all these harmful chemicals/fumes. 😖
🙌
Do you need sealant? What if you don't want to put any?
If you want the faceup to stay and not fade or wipe off, yes it is needed. If you don't put any on it won't stay in place. Pastel could fade easily and your paint could come off easier. It also might be hard to put anything on it if you don't pre-seal it. Sealant is pretty important and can really help in a faceup :)
@@AsenvaBJD oh okay thank you for your response I've never done any repaints before and i wanted to try it out..😅
@@AsenvaBJD do you do faceup on bare face then sealant?
@@abberations664 I do a layer of sealant on the bare face and then I start my work :)
Тим, хто не розуміє англійської, було "приємно" дізнатись, що відео вони передивились дарма, так нічого і не дізнавшись корисного! Хіба функцію субтитрів неможна було вам відмітити галочкою?!
Извините, у меня нет видео на других языках. В следующий раз постараюсь не забыть субтитры.
