Lily: nouvelles <3

So... I did cut all the head's parts (cap and head) and did the sockets for the eyes where needed, fixed the neck joint and yesterday I did a print test which came out pretty well in term of quality, but overall it was badly distorted because I didn't know that I wasn't supposed to sculpt in orthographic view.

Therefore I've spent a lot of time fixing my files and now they should work just fine. I did another print test, it came out as expected, but I wasn't happy with the shape of the mouth, so I've reworked that already.

I think I'm going to make another print test once I've perfectioned the cap, because right now it's just flat and need some indentetations in order to interlock with the head piece.

For now here there's a pic of my yesterday's state of mind x°D:

As for the body the way is still long).

This is all I've worked so far. Ok, there should also be legs, but I forgot to make a screen of them ^^;.
Thanks for looking)!

Hiya everyone ,

I'm still working on the body (currently modeling some hands) and I'm sculpting a new head, this time with an actual idea in mind of how I'd like for it to be, so I hope I'm going to be more satisfied with the result).

This is where I'm right now ^^. I'm also making an oe of this one, still unsure about the eyes shape though.

I guess you can see that I've change the shoulder area, I'm trying to make the joints working, but of course I wouldn't know about it until I've the parts printed ^^;.

Also I kind of want to remove the hip joint because it would be prettier without it, but it's a joint that I find really helpful to put a doll in a stable sitting position, so I don't know... what do you think ?

And a couple of hand wip.

Je suis ton topic un peu de loin, mais j'adore ton travail. Je préférais le travail traditionnel sur la pâte, mais l'utilisation de la 3D est un art à part entière aussi. Sur quel logiciel travailles-tu ? On dirait un mélange de Maya et de Zbrush, mais ça a peut-être changé, j'y ai pas touché depuis des années. J'avoue que je suis très fan de la deuxième tête (en senza-titolo 3) avec sa bouche un peu pulpeuse, elle est très expressive. Ensuite, j'adore comment tu construis tes mains, ça doit être génial de sculpter les tendons ! J'ai très hâte de voir comment va tourner ce projet !

I'm not that active on your topic, but I'm following it from far, and I love your work. I had a preference for traditionnal work with putty, but using 3D is an art form itself. Which software are you using ? Looks like a mix between Maya and Zbrush, but it may have changed, I didn't touched these in years. I must admit I am a big fan of the second head (the senza-titolo 3) with her pouty lips, she really is expressive. Then, I am a fan of your hands' construction, how fun it must be to sculpt tendons ! I am eager to see how your project will turn !

Je suis comme Camylle, je préfère le travail de sculpture traditionnel, mais tu t'en sors très bien avec le logiciel 3D! Je suis curieuse de voir ce que ça va donner :3

Like Camylle, I prefer the traditional sculpting work, but you're doing great with the 3D software! I'm curious to see how it will turn out :3

Thank you for commenting on my post ^-^.

Yes, I also do prefer sculpting in a traditional way, even though I don't have much of an experience in either way, but I'm enjoying this new tool more than I've anticipated. Btw I'm using Blender, the 2.9something version).

Camylle: thank you <3 it seems I can't stop modeling heads ^^; but yes it's pretty enjoyable to sculpt the hands as well, the muscles in particular).

I'm still working on the joints, I've finished one hand and I did a print test of the head and the bust.

Great! The rendering is really nice ! And I love the hand !

Thank you ^-^

Oh my ! So smooth and sweet ! What size is she ? With that lens cap I'd say a MSD, am I right ? ahahah
Also Lily is a cute name, this print test is meraviglioso.

Thank you so much ^-^ !
She should have been, but she's not ^^;. From the test print I think she would probably be around 54 cm or so. The head is super tiny, I still have to measure it, but I think about 5 inches.

New updates! I've fixed the bust joint which wasn't working and made the thight ones (not pictured). I've also finished the oe head, the walls of the eyes were way too thin, so I've already redid the piece, but I haven't printed it yet. The pictured one is the defective head, but isn't noticeable in pics. I'm currently modeling the feet, both legs and arms are almost done, except for the joints.

I hope you like her ^-^~

This is super impressive. I'm not competent to discuss the 3D images, but the bust is very pretty and I love the sleeping head she looks so peaceful. <3

I love it ! I've been working on 3D modeling too and I can really appreciate the work you've put into her Her sculpt is so lovely and I can't wait to see the rest of her !!

Aawn, thank you so much! I'm so happy that you like her!

My progress have been super slow since my old pc wasn't performing very well with Blender and kept crashing all the time^^'', I was able to cut some knee joints, but they could have been better, so I'm currently reworking them.

Still this is the first try printed.

Lovely back and new knee joint in progress :3!

Also the foot!
