    Finally, a BJD...

    This is what I've been doing for the last week, rather than things I'm supposed to be doing...=-D

    I have intended to make one of the ball jointed dolls (BJD) for several years now, and finally sat down and made one!

    All Jonna's parts are hand-sculpted -- he is hollow, and strung together with elastic, so he is completely posable. Now the poor li'l fae needs some clothes!

    I'm very pleased with the result, and will be doing more in future....I think the next one wil be a Fada...

    This is an interesting idea -- I haven't seen any of these in the OOAK listings to my memory, and I'm sort of wondering if there's a tutorial somewhere that explains how this is done. Closest I've ever come to something like this was a marionette I made for my kids some 30 years ago...

    Wow D, it's obviously a good thing that you've not been doing what you're supposed to be doing :p as this magical creature is the great result - Jonna is fantastic, you are such a talented gal - now I can't wait to see what the awesome seamstress in you dreams up...
    Happy hugs & waves to you both,
