New to the Forums
My main interests are sculpting, but I like technology too - so this place seems to have a lot of things I like. I don't own a doll, but building one would be a fun challenge. I have worked in mainly hard resin casting with silicone and epoxy molds. I would really like to cast sculpts in a more realistic way, especially since to me, mannequins look too rigid. Even when painted nicely. Though silicone is not perfect either, it's much nicer in some respects.
This is a gallery of my past and recent creations: http://animateclay.wixsite.com/sculptin ... ce-gallery
Anyway, just wanted to say I appreciate the art that goes into all the creations people are posting. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can learn more about how dolls are made?

Some nice work there indeed....very nice. And one does not need to own a doll to be welcome here.
If you browse some of the manufacturer threads you should be able to find some little snippets and pics here and there.

As for your question: "Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can learn more about how dolls are made?" I would suggest contacting some of the Vendors. I know at least one that welcomes Studio Visits.

The art that goes into these dolls is really amazing to me. When I was a kid I always thought animatronics were like magic. To see something you make come to life. Sort of like Ex Machina which is one of my favorite films. It seems that is where technology is headed so it's definitely exciting times!

Fine work you have done.
The world of dolls is still fairly new and has miles to go and grow.

Once I make some more posts I'll make sure to reply.
