Today is Jan 23rd 2023. This is the 4th day working on her. Doll body arms and legs are done. So far about 15 hours time spent on her.
I used the metal head as a mold for her head. I used Susan Fosnot's pattern for the body arms and legs.
I think her name is Charlotte.
There are 3 layers in the mask. I used ridged wrap to make the mask.
One shoulder is lower than the other. I didn't notice until all stuffed.
I will adjust with rigid wrap when attaching the shoulder plate. To do the shoulder plate I wrapped her in plastic wrap.
It was easy to trim the shoulder plate to fit the doll.
Because the front and back are not the same at the shoulder I will add fiberfill to make it all fit. I will then over lay another 3 strips of rigid wrap to fill in.
It is sturdy but I will be adding Helen Pringles messy mix to the whole head before painting.
I will be adding paper clay to the face to achieve the final face shape.
She will be oil painted .I will post more pictures as she develops.
