The Doll Forum

Varkeo, First I'am NOT an arte tokio expert, I only know little about how these dolls are made from the photo's on their site and there is simularity with the full size dolls (though full size dolls have foam cores to save weight and Arte toko dolls lack those) But there are done several repairs on ...

Themagic wrote Also, I'm thinking that if the magnets don't work for some reason, you could still set up the arduino to control some servos to control the physical location of permanent magnets in the skull. Yup my thoughts. If I were you I should look at servo's too. There's a great chinese model p...

Hi all, For the Netherlands, get this stuff:Alabastine Wonderlas. I think its simular to the Sevylor Air Seal, it "welds" the vinyl and does not use patches, the Dutch word "las" is meaning weld. http://www.hobbyhuis.nl/contents/nl/d3060.html It does glue almost every tear in a v...

Hi all, I just want to wish everyone here all the best for 2011. 2010 was a somewhat difficult year for me now and then though I think it did end quite well. Regarding dolls I work slowly but steady on the big new doll, and 2011 will probably give me the possibility to pour this new doll, this will ...

Hi Walley, Walley wrote There goes my dream of a $800 Real Doll exact replica with own features : ( Yup, one can not make them that cheap, the 800 US$ can not buy the silicone to pour the doll..., and then I do not talk about all other stuff and labour needed to build her! High end Dolls are bought ...

Alexknight wrote The For Sale rules are there to give TDF members a form of protection against shady deals on TDF, but if something like that were to happen on eBay, it would be between the buyer and eBay. TDF wouldn't have had any dealings in that. Non-US moderators and admins can't even see the sa...

GFellube, Those are resinkits, at least that is what I think. Once Matt M of Realdoll was a resinkit sculpter. Mike James of Azimuth design is a resinkit sculpter too. http://jamesart.com Figures are sculpted in clay like sculpey III (polymer clay). From this clay molds are made, and from that molds...

digitaldavid, You need the cleavant NSP for this job or simular (E.g. a simular NSP Plasticine from Kolb, or maybe sculpey III but I think that may contain some sulphur) There is IMO not another way, at least not for a head of a doll, for a body you could do a reasonable good job with carputty but i...

CharlieWone wrote Love those outdoor pics Szalinski. My girls want to get out so badly! Oh well, just another day of relaxing with a foot massage, courtesy of Ayla. Great pic! I hope you don't mind, but I could not resist I did a little job on this picture, to improve the colors little, and look how...

DWhite, A great website, old Egypt with all its mistery illustrated by Anky, is a nice facinating subject. You did put an amazing amount of work into this doll and all artwork. I'm still in programming. The profession has changed drastically since I started. In the beginning we had simple tools and ...

Hi All, This doll is in Germany a lot cheaper 155 Euro at the cheaperst shops. http://www.eromed.de/product_info.php?refID=1&info=p32915_SELENE-Supreme-Goddess-Virtual-Doll---Selence-Goddes.html These shops ship by DHL for 32 euro extra overseas to you.
