An adorable young Monk Seal, rare to see, we were very lucky!! We saw them 3 times!
And anyway, back to California... back to work buahhh... Sure it is!
I'm back to my BJD, before I left I have already finished with the last mold, so they were drying all week, now I just pick, clean, maybe sand a little bit and star using them.
It was a lot hard to make the hands, the slip has a little bit of smell, but until today I got to cast the first Doll and an extra head (I made 4 heads total) working all day just in that...
Looking good so far uh? I'm using and Air Dry porcelain slip but manufacturer recommend to bake it a 200 F for about 4 to 6 hours, I didn't got to do that today will do it tomorrow for sure and make another body and heads of course... Did I mention that I got to make a double joint body? Well yes I have (wasn't really expected, but a last second thing hehe) I may be working those molds tomorrow.
Welcome back, Noemi! Glad you had a great time in Hawaii! And, lucky you getting to make such a wonderful new friend. Would love to meet up with a monk seal. Beautiful creatures. :-)
