This is a modded Batchix St. George head that bought from Krowbar/handy_dandy_degenerate_candy at PNW BJD Expo way back in 2017. At the time I asked if they would mind me redoing the faceup and they said they didn’t mind at all, but it wasn’t something I felt up to tackling for a long time. He finally has a body I think feels right for him (the WS Dream Valley 51cm body) and I finally felt up to starting on it. The mods were pretty rough under the paint so I sanded him some more, but not enough apparently! I’m trying to use some Vallejo acrylic primer instead of just paint, so there’s more sanding and spraying ahead for me but I think it’ll look nicer than regular acrylic in the end.

I wasn’t happy with the fit of the glued pieces on 70cm Tennant’s head, so I attached the ears and filled in some of the gaps with Milliput. This was better, but then I also remembered that I could use some of the same UV resin I printed with to cover up the Milliput bits. After sanding it looks much better!

This is another project I’ve had going for a while… Tennant but Big! The faceplate is the full width of my printer so I did the ears as separate pieces. I got this Charmdoll body (72cm) in the older opaque resin and I like it but in photos the neck looks a bit thin for his jaw. (It doesn’t look as bad IRL so I I have no idea, haha.) I sanded the jaw down a bit, which was easy enough to do since this is the first print I’ve done where I’m trying to use the actual printed resin as the final surface – many thanks to @aishavoya for giving me a tip about using the white resin pigment ages ago. There’s also a bonus digital mockup and a bonus shot of the first try at the faceplate where I seriously undershot on how much resin I needed in the vat.

This is a bit different, but I’m making a tweaked Tennant
doll head sculpt to print at a larger scale and I wanted to hear if
anyone has some thoughts/critique/suggestions on the face sculpt/anatomy
before I commit! I’ll add some asymmetry near the end. The shoulders,
hair and polypaint are just to help visualize.
