Here's a short overview of making porcelain ball-jointed dolls (BJD). There are still lots of info that I couldn't include in the video, so consider joining one of my doll making classes:

  • Adele, I had no idea that some of the liquid is poured back out. So that's how you make a hollow cast.
  • Thank you so much for making this video! I have been in love with porcelain dolls for years now, and got my first blank bjd a few months ago to customize. I've had an amazing time doing so, and am considering sculpting a doll from scratch. This video was very helpful for knowing what I might be getting into. As someone who absolutely adores porcelain dolls, I truly admire you!
  • @dreamingwide
    Those are breathtaking pieces of art. I always found it so mesmerizing how one has to learn so many different mediums and techniques to bring one doll to life. Your dolls are stunning, truly beautiful pieces of art.
  • @axuwu6939
    Every single doll you make is so stunning!! I don’t even know how to put into words how beautiful they are, and seeing the process behind them makes me appreciate them even more.
  • @recreepy
    Your attention to detail and craftsmanship is truly extraordinary, making each doll and puppet a masterpiece."
  • Adele: I fervently hope your course is good to go! I'm budgeting for all classes, but will send in the first bunch for the Making BJD masterclass + the course, Making Plaster Molds. The final courses will be signed up for on August 3rd. I'm very excited! This will be the realization of a lifetime dream. You are a beautiful artist, of each discipline. I'm ecstatic!

    Thank you for posting! What kind of kiln do you use? I had a kiln from 1988 for a long time that used cones, but it looks as if you have an automatic temperature-setting system? Thanks for information.
  • They're so beautiful 😍💜🥰. Thank you for showing your process! I am lucky and had a very small table top kiln given to me recently. I think I'd like to make a very curvy doll first. It has been a while since I fired a kiln up and I really miss it (terracotta clay was my fav, I loved the smell). I can't wait to get started. Thank you! 💜
  • @Umienzeru
    LOL. My 5 year old came in at 3:27 and thought it was a nose!
  • Очень интересно ☺, побольше таких видео выкладывайте 👍. А где такую печь купить?
  • I've adored porcelain dolls since my Grandma gave me one around eight and would love to try making one myself. But I'm not quite sure how I'd be able to fire the parts so frequently as I doubt I could afford a kiln, would it be possible to use an oven?
  • Thank you so much for this nice presentation! Could you tell me at what temperature and for how long do you need to bake the painted clay (each layer)? I have never worked with china paints before, I only knew engobe (which is powder made from clay and pigment that you mix with water). Thank you so much for your answer and a nice yt channel!
  • I really like this video, but I have a question, can we make a doll without a mould?
  • @jennytsak
    Wow amazing video and such interesting process overall. Your dolls are absolutely beautiful especially the one in the hot red wig because of the contrast with the skin colour. I have a question regarding the doll assembling. Why do you use springs instead of rubber elastic like they do for non porcelain bjd? Does it have added benefits for the doll movement? Also I notice that you have added some kind of fabric layer between the limps to avoid too much rubbing? What kind of material is that?
