teenyshiny Posted July 5, 2021 Hello all! I go by Emi. I’m fairly new to this hobby, only just got into it this past March or so. What really inspired me to take the plunge was seeing all the beautiful custom dolls people make. My goal is to learn to do faceups and build my own custom dolls as well. I’ve always had a passive interest in vinyl dolls and bjds, but was unable to pursue that interest due to being a teenager and their high price tags. Now that I’ve begun working and making my own money, I’ve been able to set some aside for this hobby. A few months ago I bought my first doll, a semi-white MDD body and a DDH-22 head. Being familiar with drawing and painting, I decided to try my hand at doing her faceup myself. We’ll see how that goes…! (I’m very nervous…lol) Anyways, I look forward to meeting others who share this interest and hope to become more knowledgeable myself. See you. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisFhey Posted July 6, 2021 Hello Emi! Welcome to both the board and the BJD hobby! Sounds like you've got quite the project ahead of you. Hopefully your first face-up will go well. :3 Show us some photos when it's done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
