@kitebabe05 how much does the materials cost that you used?

also could you make a video, video of you prepairing the puddy, shapeing the face and all that??

@randomwoot I suggest using puppen fimo, which is clay which is basically designed to sculpt dolls. It's an oven baking clay, and many professionals use it and the good thing is it's nontoxic. It also comes in different skin tones.

@randomwoot exactly, I would not use the toxic resin, porcelain is a very good, noble alternative. I work with it.

It is very tough and has a much more refined look and feel as the plastic / resin.

ok that is true, to build the molds is quite complicated ....=.=°

@kitebabe05 so it IS okay to make your doll out of clay and not worry about casting in resin? I really want to make my own, but every research I do leads me to casting. and I definitely don't have tons of money to spend on that and I'd rather not deal with the toxic part of it. >_> I wish I could find more resources and 'how to' books. xP
