      Thank you so much for your support Joanne! And yes, I was searching for other Aliexpress dolls makeovers but found like a couple, so that's why I decided to make my own videos. I've painted several ones so will be uploading more = )

      And funny enough! The aliexpress ones are not bad quality! But yeah I love BJD dolls and the ones I want badly are like a couple hundred bucks! And there are some of similar quality on Aliexpress for less.

      ​@@sadcena7204 The pirated manufacturer rolled over the mould from the original doll; that is why they are piracy. I don't think there are genuine BJD companies on Aliexpress, especially since the price is lower. Resin BJD is an expensive product.

    Wow! You've really inspired me to repaint my own dolls now. They're not exactly ugly, just plain I suppose. I love the realism you added. Since I'm a beginner I think I'll just redo the lips for now after seeing how many shades of pink & red can change the entire appearance of them. Mine look like their lips were just stamped on with red paint using the side of the stick of the paintbrush lol. I've watched many doll faceups over the last two years or so but this is the one to inspire me! Thank you! I hope you have several more of these exact dolls and the sister ones that are 1/4/MSD size. Subbed and looking forward to seeing how you progress over time, as well as seeing the dolls you transform. I hope my own skills grow with your help.

    A different (slightly) budget 60cm bjd is a Bobobie Apollo! Mine was about 316$ CAD and I adore him! :)

    I’m so impressed with your repaint. I’ve seen these dolls and wanted to run away screaming at how bad their makeup is 😂 ok maybe I’m being overly dramatic. But I always wondered what they would look like if they had a good makeup. You made her so beautiful.
    Funny coincidence that today I received a resin doll with an absolutely horrible faceup, and a blank vinyl practice head just like your doll 😂 I immediately removed the resin faceup as I could not stand to look at it. I will be practicing a bit beforehand, I’ve doctored faceups before but never painted a whole faceup 😮 I will be watching more of your videos! Thank you! ❤

      @zoinomiko 2 роки тому +6

      In the "early days" there was a huge problem on sites like Aliexpress of companies casting bootleg BJD by buying a legit doll and recasting it in cheaper resin. Probably much less likely with injection-mold plastic like this doll, especially considering what her joints look like (but I think older fans still have that left-over worry.)
      Having worked with both resin and plastic dolls there's some definite advantages to resin, but I love that there's plastic options available to help the art from grow... even if the price point makes it less "exclusive". ;)

    • @strayiggytv
      @strayiggytv 2 роки тому

      @@zoinomiko some of the injection plastic dolls have been proven to be very slightly altered stolen sculpts too. Companies will take a 3d scan of an existing bjd head, tweak it slightly, then 3d print it and then make an injection mold. Honestly unless it's a Chinese company pushing its own original brand anything labled something like "ball joint doll poseable bjd 1/4" is likely one of these bootlegs

    I'm sure there are many people here with a similar comment, but just be careful of what "sculpt" you buy on Aliexpress. Unfortunately while they are a great way to fine a cute, inexpensive doll like her, they also have a lot of recast dolls on there, and while I don't personally care what you buy, there are doll communities that are very strict about recasts.

    • @maypaints6422
      @maypaints6422  2 роки тому +19

      Thanks a lot for your comment and your concern is genuine. I've been in the BJD hobby since 2009 so I know how strict they can be. I personally don't own resin recasts, and I've learned after making these videos that these plastic dolls seem to be from Ucanaan, but this territory is very muddy to me and I am learning on the way. I just know that I enjoy painting and taking pictures the most, and I'll be customizing other types of dolls as well in the near future

    I tried a monster high custom but for some reason MSC reacted poorly with the head, making it tacky and weird. I thought I'd given up, but I got a plastic ball jointed body for my nendoroid, and am now working on a fully custom nendo bjd... awaiting a face up that I will try to do as minimally as possible, since I have no practice. Sewing his outfit has been fun. The pastels will come at some point but intimidate me.

      I got them from different stores on Aliexpress like Meimengwawu and adollya. If you mean the clothes from the final pictures, those are from a store called Doll Heart.

      There are many dolls on Ali that are recast (especially if they're resin) but many of the vinyl dolls are original. Not sure about this one, but just coming from Ali doesn't inherently make everything a knockoff. 🙄 There are a lot of legitimate brands of Asian fashion dolls intended for children and also collectors that you can buy from there.

      @@Krankhafter Framing it as a "cheap alternative" would make people buy recasts eventually, which is my main worry. I don't think alliexpress = knockoff but especially in bjd community, it's discourged against buying from websites like these.

      Research is key before coming into someone's channel and gate keeping. This one is not a recast like the dream fairys are. Advice about recasts would come off a lot better if people wouldn't frame it with an accusation, then siting that "the bjd community" discourages buying from aliexpress. As if this exclusive club has the final word on what people are allowed to buy or are allowed to enjoy just because it was bought on a site that sells other dolls that are recast. These aren't even true ball jointed dolls, so please, just let people enjoy affordable dolls and customizing them without making statements that aren't true, and could make people feel as if they've done something wrong when they haven't. Every time someone shares one of these dolls, a gate keeper shows up to rain on the party. It's poor form.

      @@ritalai1857 Exactly that, it's a shame that people don't understand what is wrong with recasts. They don't realize how much effects the real creators of these dolls. I'm also pretty sure that this vinyl doll has exactly the sculpt from a resin bjd, so still this is recasted to a vinyl doll.
