Ok. Small update on the Jules Casper dolls since I'm realizing I never did one after my last one.

Update 1: they both have their bodies. they are currently unstuffed.

I am waiting to paint them until it is warmer out so that I can spray them w primer outside. and I'm not going to glue them into their bodies until after I've painted them. So they are unstuffed for now.

Update 2:

After much suffering and pain, I have made Casper's wig. I used fabric glue that took forever to dry so that made it really difficult. It claimed to be permanent and water proof after 24 hrs but certain parts would always reactivate whenever i'd spray the hair to style it so that made it overall just really difficult. overall, wrong glue. i'm going to try hot glue on Jules wig.

Doing his part was really difficult also.

I tried doing like, gluing the wefts backwards and then folding them over thing and that didn't look that great and didn't hide the wefts underneath very well so i tried doing this crisscross thing.

that also didn't work and i wasn't happy with it so i tried cutting a slit and then gluing the wefts on the underside of the wig cap which went really really bad in the middle but i was able to save it.

that ended up looking really nice from the top but unfortunately it created like a big chunk of hot glue on the underside which made it so that the cap is no longer flush with his head.

but that is the best i am probably going to do. i dont know how to fix that so it is what it is. i dont want to do anymore. i'm worried if i try to fix it im just going to ruin it. redoing the part like this almost destroyed the entire wig anyway so i think its best if i just stop doing things and move on.

that is all for now goodbye

I am currently working on making dolls of Jules and Casper. I have been posting about it on other platforms but i keep thinking like, damn. I wish this was like, a blog. I wish blogs still existed. Like live journal. But then I remembered... tumblr still sort of exists. So.

I've been sculpting their heads, hands, and feet out of tinfoil and super sculpey for like a week now. They have copper wire down the center to build off of, and also to make them easier to hold while sculpting. And then the copper wire also can be bent into little loops which will make sense later. The armature for the fingers was made out of paper clips.

I finished sculpting them today and have moved on to making their bodies, which will be made of fabric. Specifically, they will be made of this peach jersey tshirt that i found at michael's.

But first I made a mockup of Casper's body out of printer paper. I think I am going to finish it completely before making Jules body, so that I can work out any problems with it before redrafting the pattern a little smaller.

That is all for now. I love to blog.
