#plus size doll

The big reveal! 

A 3D printed Aliah statuette!
This is a test 3D print we had made early this month to get an idea of amount of material, size,
and time it would take to offer a small limited run of 3D printed dolls. I also really wanted to get a physical example of the progress that’s been done in re-sculpting our doll.
It was an absolute success! We have more to announce soon, if you’d like to learn more now- definitely check out our Patreon where we’re asking for input, suggestions, feedback & advice every step of the way!
And be sure to go tell @rap1993 what an amazing job she’s done on our beautiful Curvy Girl!

Shared this video with our Patrons last month, thought Tumblr might like to see it now too ♥

“We started filming at 8 am and didn’t leave til like 5 in the afternoon… we had some outtakes, and clips we had taken ahead of time that we never did get to use.  So, enjoy our chaos.

I should have made this video a long time ago. I was so busy during the Kickstarter run, and then after the Kickstarter ended, I just didn’t want to look at the clips. It felt bad, it hurt. When filming I was so excited, I kept telling myself “Wow! This is really happening! Almost a year of working on this, and we’re finally making the video, and soon it will go live and all my dreams will come true!"I was a little too optimistic I guess.

We had so many struggles in our first year, after multiple companies charging thousands of dollars for prototypes they didn’t deliver. To having to throw together a dress for the doll literally the night before because the seamstress used WAY too thick of a fabric. To even having to edit the video at the very last second because I was just not happy with the way it was being done. Even right before the trip, we were contacted by a company that claimed to work with a shark from shark tank, told us for $20,000 they would take care of EVERYTHING and gave us links to (successful) Kickstarters they claimed to have worked with. And we almost believed them.

But even after all that, I am proud of what we did accomplish. Even if we had to do a bit of ‘starting over’ now. We did good. And we learned a lot, so now we’re prepared to be even better.

The future of Curvy Girls is looking brighter than ever. And that’s really why I was now able to go back, because these clips no longer make me sad from what could have been. They’re now a stepping stone on the path of what is going to be.

And I’m excited.”

You’ve probably been wondering what we have been working on since the canceled Kickstarter. Well, we have reevaluated a lot and I’ll lay some of it out in different posts. We were told by our initial manufacturer that it would go from idea to doll in hand in 6 months. Long story, short: scam. We never received anything from him but during that time we rushed on everything to meet that 6 month target. Even our logo was rushed. So first, here is our new logo. We removed the curvy girl because we don’t want to show preference to any doll or race of doll, etc.

This is still very much happening.

Also in that last post, but I received the Dream Valley body in yellow for Tennant, so naturally I went right about cutting it up, haha. He was way too tall compared to Daniel and Conchita. He’s still a bit too tall but any further height would be harder to remove. I removed a chunk from the ankles and shortened the neck.
It wasn’t too hard, just a lot of sanding to smooth it out. I did it once before on a Resinsoul body and used Milliput to connect the pieces which I think was less visible, but I got lazy here and used superglue since I could always Milliput later.
What I did was stick the calves onto the feet, then draw two level lines around them by holding a pencil parallel to the table and rotating the calves. I drew perpendicular lines across (like a train track) and also marked the back center to keep things lined up. I cut the pieces out with a Dremel (saw might’ve been better but I don’t have a good one) and used a coarse sandpaper flat on the counter to get the edges flat and even. I glued them together by lining up the back center lines and the internal channel, then sanded it smooth.

More recent photos of Daniel, mostly to show off his new rings. Also there you can see that Tennant on the Dream Valley body is way too tall, haha. When his body in the right color arrives I’m going to shorten the legs.

I took these boudoir-y photos of Daniel a while back for a Men’s Monday BJD thing that IG was doing a while back. I get the distinct feeling the Tumblr crowd will be more interested than IG though. Thanks for all the nice comments on him!
