Second Ball Jointed Doll - Have the joints done

And its just a hand ahead LOL, yep I finally got to make her joints and feet. Next will be the hands and it will be ready. Here some pics:



I had her temporary stringing just to be sure all the joints are working. And I knew polymer clay couldn't take the pressure, one of her thighs was staring to crack just a little, so after I checked for the joint function I had to un-string her quickly, well It mat be the kind of polymer clay I used, it may be stronger with Fimo puppen or another kind of strong clay. but still, all the pieces are meant to take lot of pressure.
