Dollmaking Techniques: Adding a More Realistic Doll Nose with Needle Felting and Fabric Sculpting

This little video was created as part of a Mini Workshop I taught earlier this summer (2020) on Doll Sculpting Techniques. You can use these techniques: needle felting and fabric sculpture to add a bit more realism to your doll's faces. These are extremely simple techniques, they just take time to execute right for long-lasting results.
For the creation of the entire doll and/or further instruction on how to cover the doll's face and add all the wool facial details you can find the mentioned pattern over here:

Thank you. I normally don't sculpt these sorts of details but it is always very fun to experiment!

Que bueno que te gusto la tecnica, es divertido y encantador utilizarla para hacer muñecas. Puedes usar gaza para contener la lana, y si...la tela para cubrirlas es dificil encontrarla, incluso en Canada. Yo tengo que comprar todo por internet, y a la señora que le compro la mayoria de mis materiales, ella importa casi todo de Europa. Quizas si haces un pedido de tamaño decente te pueda salir bien. Hay una mujer en Mexico, que vende una tela muy similar, aunque tiene cierto contenido de polyester. La que yo utilizo es 100% algodon. Puedes encontrar a esta mujer en Instagram, esta es su cuenta: instagram.com/marialuciana1972/

Why does the felting need to be very very firm? Is there a disadvantage to making it looser and allowing the tight skin jersey to squish it down to size?

@Figandme 3 жыл бұрын

The felting needs to be very firm for several reasons: 1. Wool is biodynamic, which means it is constantly reacting to the environment (moisture, heat, cold, etc) so it "moves". If your felting is "barely there" within a few years or even months, the features that you "felted" will be gone…completely flattened. 2. You won't be able to sculpt the fabric over features that are super soft. You need it to be firm to properly anchor stitches over the fabric to secure it. When the wool losens and compacts the fabric will be completely floating over the area you though you sculpted. 3. It is a much higher quality to sculpt to a very firm stage. You can also get the wool to a completely smooth finish once it is very firm, which allows for the skin cover to have a much more desirable look. I could literally go on and on...

Hola Marielena, estoy trabajando en un video que explica las agujas y la lana y etceteras, asi que manten el ojo pelado. Por el momento te contesto que las agujas se llaman "felting needles" o agujas para fieltro en seco. Las puedes encontrar en tiendas especializadas para hacer cosas de fieltro natural o comprarlas por internet. Un abrazo a la madre patria!
