I found a wig that would work great for a custom of my fave synth, CiFlower. However, I'm not too sure how to add her signature purple "stripes" of hair. I've had a look online and seen mixed info on whether synthetic fibres can even be dyed or not, so I was wondering what my options would be in this case.

Hi there! I've been really into watching Dollfie faceup videos recently, particularly the work of Hemi's Doll Room, and I thought I might as well ask this here. In a lot of Japanese faceup videos, I see artists using these diamond files to make subtractive mods to Dollfie heads. I've never heard of these before, so I was wondering if there are pros and cons to using them vs regular sandpaper, or if it's just one step in the process? IE using the diamond file for large mods, and then switching to sandpaper to smooth them out. I'm not quite at the point where I would feel brave enough to attempt an eye or mouth mod, but it's fascinating to me!

Hello! I have a Dollfie Dream boy and my goal is to turn him into a Vtuber I like Ren Zotto. The Vtuber has some fun accessories like rings and horns and a tail that I wanted to add. I have these elvish ears for him that stay in place with magnets, so I was thinking I could keep the horns in place in a similar way either in the head or under the wig. When I ordered him through a fantastic proxy, she suggested a friend of hers who does custom nails could do the jewelry, but when she assessed the visual aids she said I'd need to actually 3D print those myself and do a custom job. So... I have no idea how to 3D print ✨ I'm trying to learn but it's a loooot of info! Any advice on how to do... any of it??? I know I can get 3D printing done either locally in my area or through places like Etsy, but don't know how to use any programs in order to make what I want get printed. Any ideas or advice on how to learn how to digitally sculpt stuff for this job?

I'm (hopefully) getting a cute custom head from eBay and some clothes + wig there as well <33 I've decided to name her Sana as her face and colors remind me of a calm quiet person :3 Sana is gonna be a MDD 1/4, which I've been wanting for about 2 years, so I'm very excited to put her all together!! Would love to see any custom Dollfie Dreams you guys have!! ^_^

Hey!! So for idk like 5 years I’ve been gathering all the stuff to make lace wigs, and I’m determined to do it starting now. The thing that stops me is I’m not sure where or how to start. I have a tutorial from someone in the bjd community but they use glue on the wig cap so I’m not sure how it will fit the doll or stay on the doll. I’ve seen someone in the bjd community that sews lace wigs without the glue on the wig cap but I’m like terrified to ask for their guidance (strangers are scary… 😅) Anyway hoping someone here might have some insight or knowledge they want to share. I know the technique, but idk how to make the wig cap.

I'm looking into making a few custom PureNeemo dolls of some of my OCs. The problem is, while bodies are plentiful, (what a weird sentence out of context...), I cannot find listings for blank heads made in the PureNeemo scale. Does anyone know of any different brands that might have noggins that'd be a good fit? I'm going to use PN2 Feel M Girl in White.

Hi! I am going to be buying a new DD soon and with the customisation I was considering modifying the DDH-07 face to have slightly smaller eyes, I have seen hemi's doll room on youtube use a method where she uses cut vinyl from the back of the doll head and uses a soldering iron to melt the vinyl and modify the eye holes smaller, she does this in this video here. Now I am aware melting vinyl can produce fumes (i have an adequate respirator) but I wanted to know your thoughts on this method because I like the results and the fact that I wouldn't have to repaint the head like you would with epoxy clay. I have also seen a face-up artist on instagram use a UV resin from BOOTH japan that is colour matched to the dollfie heads, this would be my second option if I buyee does indeed ship UV resin to where I live. Has anyone here used or seen these methods and have any thoughts on them :D Thank you

Hello everyone! I just traded a head for a blank Uzuki Shimamura head, and the wonderful person I am trading with offered to give her a face-up. Problem is I am having trouble deciding what character I want to go with for her. I was wondering what you all would reccomend for her sculpt. Some ideas I had were a Miku based doll, a modernized Ren from DearS, Hakufu from Ikki Tosen (courtesy of @Tierparkzone), a magical girl of some kind, a fate character in the design of wada arco's art (I've been on a huge fate kick), or someone with a teal color scheme. I really would just love to see some options and what you guys would do with this lovely sculpt, to try and develop a plan with my trade partner. Any ideas are welcomed and appreciated. I just would love some cute design recommendations, character recommendations, or ideas just to get my brain flowing. Below is a picture of her head, with makeup so you guys can see what she looks like. Cheers and have a lovely week!

Hi! New to this forum but a long time doll collecter. I'm used to doing face ups and body blushing on resin dolls and hard vinyl but have never worked on soft vinyl. I recently got an angel philia doll, which I'm SUPER excited about, but I'm not sure about blushing the body. She is the soft skin type, and I'm hoping someone can answer a few questions for me. Would airbrushing work better than the soft pastel method? And for sealant (I usually use MSC), would I need to worry about it breaking up or cracking when the soft vinyl is pressed on while posing or changing clothes? I've wanted this doll for years and I've gone through hoops to get the right option pieces for her, so any input on how ~not~ to mess this up is greatly appreciated! ⁽⁽ଘ( ˊᵕˋ )ଓ⁾⁾

Hello, I recently recieved a ddh-16 head and I was wondering if anyone had suggestions for 55cm to 60cm boy resin bodies that would work with this head? DD boy bodies are hard to find and I don't know if I want to spend the money to get a dream choice just for the body. Any help appreciated! Thanks!

so, I'm trying to find a good wig maker for my customization project. so far, I have found one person on etsy who would charge 60$+shipping for a short brown, feathered bob wig with a white shock of hair in the bangs. I'm personally not sure how fair that price is but I would like to see my options. If you know someone who makes smartdoll wigs, please let me know. thank you!
