+Andisa Charms
Thank you!
This turned out beautifully
Thank you!
i fucking love this entire imovie pre-made intro. Its so cheesy its great
Iam a newbie and this is the best video I've seen for learning thank you so much
So glad you like it. Hope you get to visit www.MakingFairies.com
FANTASTIC
Hey Apryl! I dappled in some paper clay for a minute & although I loved it, its sooooooo light when completed. Didn't get a "solid feel" to my BJD if that makes sense? But how do you prevent all the extra BULK with polymer, even tho its hollow? Im looking for middle ground I suppose. Thinking of buying your BJD Tutorial again (been a good 10 years since I got it last) & remember loving it, but need a refresher course lol....
Smiles,
Lori
His work is very good,i love!
Glad you like my work. :)
So can the glass eyes be baked inside of the sculpt at the same time? Beautiful work by the way.
Yes glass eyes and polymer clay eyes can be baked in the doll. Acrylic eyes cannot be baked. Hope you get to visit www.MakingFairies.com
You are soooo good at this! Thank you so much for sharing. I'm trying to make a Santa Claus and am having a hard time sculpting his face. You make it look so easy, haha.
+amy kettering Thanks! You can check out my Santa video on UA-cam and my Santa tutorial on MakingFairies.com :) Good luck!
+aprylian yes, i saw your quick Santa video on here but I'll definitely check out the video on your website. Thanks so much! :)
I really wish you *had* shown the little details :/ This is useful, but the way you sort of skim over how you made the lips look so real and the eyes sort of makes it hard to completely learn from it - you get the gist of what the method is, but if like me, you really struggle with making faces, then it kind of makes it harder to learn.
Other than that, really good video :)
This is just a small tips video. For full detailed tutorials go to www.MakingFairies.com You get step by step instructions. :)
Oh, okay! Thank you :3 I'm struggling to make my own ball jointed doll so xD
I soon will make a tutorial for a simple small bjd to make it easier to start and then I have the advanced tutorial. :) facebook.com/aprylians
Okay, thank you! :D Sorry if I came across as rude before, that wasn't my intention ^~^' I'm struggling to find tutorials that help, so I'm trying to piece together tips on how to sculpt better from multiple videos xD The things I find hardest are lips and eyes haha, I've tried three times and each attempted ended up looking like some mangled excuse for a human XDD
I understand. I have more videos on UA-cam that might help. You can take some scrap clay and practice on that until you make something you are happy with and then use the good clay. :)
thank you that's awesome you are a real inspiration I love your dvds thank you for sharing hugs Rose x
+Rosemary Rolfe Oh you are welcome! Thank you for watching. :)
I have a lot of trouble with lips, could you maybe do a tutorial on them?
I have this video on lips: ua-cam.com/video/i5HlhrioARg/v-deo.html Hope you get to visit www.MakingFairies.com
Hello I just found your channel and loved this video! I found it very informative. I have a couple questions.. 1. Is that a polymer clay that you bake? I probably missed you saying if it was or not because it’s 3 am lol. 2. Do you have any advice for sculpting an animal face? I’ve been trying to sculpt a wolf and am not having much luck at all. Have tried DAS and Polymer. I’ve watched a loooot of videos but no one really goes through it step by step like you did for this one
Yes I am using polymer clay. I don't do animal sculpts but I can advise you to have wolf pictures in front of you to guide you while you sculpt. Some videos here might help: ua-cam.com/users/results?search_query=sculpt+wolf+face
I subbed, but I wanna ask something... What do you do to make the face smooth? I use premo but when I do a "pancake" or add pieces to the head, it still has lines after blending it for 10 mins and then I have to sand the face.
What clay are you using? My clays are easy to blend. www.makingfairies.com/collections/clays
I use Craftsmart clay. I haven't seen Prosculpt at Michael's, hobby lobby, etc. However, I have tried using Living Doll and Premo, but craft smart is super similar to both brands and I get the bigger pack(440g) for about $2 less. I've been looking for tutorials or books on sculpting (ball-jointed) dolls or figures, but none are at my library and some are hard to find at Barne's & Noble.
If you are having trouble blending you should try prosculpt, at least try a sample piece. www.makingfairies.com/collections/clays/products/living-doll-sample-4-oz-baby
I also have a BJD tutorial, plus many more tutorials on mermaids, fairies, etc. www.makingfairies.com/collections/tutorials

Thank you for watching. Hope you get to visit www.MakingFairies.com
Great work thanks for this!
Thank you!
Pablo Rodriguez I use polymer clays. I can't reply directly to you for some reason.
beautiful!
This polymer is clay?
+Dolls Brand-New Look
Yes it is polymer clay.
Amazing!! Bless hands
Thank you!
Just found this and you do beautiful work. I was hoping you could tell me how you get the baked clay out of the head so that it is hollow?
Thank you. After you take the wooden stick out you dig out or drill from the top of the head to the bottom. It is easier to do before you bake but you can also do this after. My tutorial on www.MakingFairies.com tells you in detail.
We can bake resin eyes with polymer clay? I thought resins are not ok with heat.
Awesome, I love this video.
+MissArtsyGurl
Thank you!
You're welcome. :D
AMAZING!!!!!
+rmcbeigh Thanks!
Is it cold porcelain or polymer clay? What is the material you use?
Hola gran trabajo admirable, quería preguntar qué tipo de masa usas soy de Perú
Aqui estan lo que uso. Y mi favorito. www.makingfairies.com/collections/clays
Gracias preciosa !!
that the music played? tell me,please !!
Your doll head is very beautiful . I wish you had shown the details on the eyes,nose,lips . Also how tall will the finished doll be ?
Ooo sorry I missed this. The doll is about 14 inches. The details are in my bjd tutorial dvd found at www.MakingFairies.com
Beautiful work, I create polymer animals and prefer to make my own eyes, I Love the look of the uv resin vs just painting the eye but I find the uv resin darkens really bad when you bake the sculpt, do you have this problem or is there a tip or trick to making them not darken?? (I use the Lisa Pavelka resin right now)
That is the resin I use but it does not darken. Maybe you are baking too high? I bake at 275 degrees Fahrenheit. You can also put the resin after you have finished baking the whole doll.
thank you, I actually baked at 270 for about 30min.. and, I may have the answer... I do believe it may be a leakage of color from the iris of the eye! I will be experimenting a bit more to see if that is in deed the case, I am just VERY grateful that I did not discover this issue after I had completed the commissioned sculpt!! ty for you very quick response!!
I am interested in learning how to do this . By any chance is your DVDs great for beginners. I never did anything like this before.
Yes
My videos are great for beginners except the BJD DVD that is more advanced. You may start with the babies and work your way up or just jump in and do the whole fairy. The DVD's take you step by step. You practice with me. www.MakingFairies.com
Thanks

How do you make sure the doll doesn't end up cross-eyed?
The video shows you how to straighten them. You can also add clay around the eye and bake it before you continue sculpting if you have problems with moving eyes. :)
what are the eyes made of? glass? plastic?
I made them from polymer clay. Hope you visit www.MakingFairies.com
how do you work out what size insert eyes to use, i want to make a 18 inch doll so not sure on head and eye size
First make a doll diagram or enlarge a body picture to the size you would like and get the measurements that way.
Gracias x compartir
+MELLANIE DARCY STORE
Your welcome! :)
how do you get the base inside out of the head? do u take it out before you start sculpting the face look or after?
+Mero Mrmr Base can come out from the top of head. Sculpt with the wood stick in for stability.
prosculpt baby has breakage? in small pieces like fingers or is it bendable
It has about the same endurance as porcelain. It is hard but you have to be careful with it. Not bendable.
Wish I could😥
How do you get it soft and shiny there at the end?
Oil
cool!!
+Doll Island
Thanks!
Asymmetrical!!!
does the eyes get cloudy if you get the clay on them ?
+Sharon Aur Yes you wipe them with a wet wipe.
+aprylian is that before or after baking ? can you see the eyes go cloudy whilst sculpting ? , or does it only happen after they are baked ? I ask because I want to try handmade eyes.
Thank you so much Sharon x
+Sharon Aur
I have a tutorial on eyes at www.MakingFairies.com
I wipe before and/or after baking if I see them cloudy. Works if you use the right material and process. Good Luck!
What for molding? What do you use?
Darin kongsongnon I don't use molds. I make the doll and the eyes by hand.
where can one buy those eyes?
I make them and sell them at www.MakingFairies.com
how much this eyes price please send u r address in India
is the clay you use expensive?
+Brooke allen See for yourself on MakingFairies.com :)

Wondering how you got the armature out?
Before baking the stick should be loose so that it is easy to remove once baked.
aprylian do you remove the just the stick or do you get the the stick out with the foil if you take foil and stick pls tell me how I wanna try this
If you have foil in head you leave the foil and take out the stick. Hope you get to visit www.MakingFairies.com
What clay do you use??
Here is my favorite clay mix www.makingfairies.com/collections/clays/products/favorite-clay-mix
I don't like how you skipped the video and didn't show the whole process.
Video is on tips. The full tutorial is at www.MakingFairies.com
you have to pay for it, this is how she makes a living I assume. Don't be greedy and ungrateful
Karen Lal are you serious? At what point was my comment greedy?
Karen Lal or ungrateful?
Rainbow Butterfly I understand you would like to learn as much as you can. :) Hope you get to see my other videos and also visit www.MakingFairies.com
