OOAK Custom MH: Demon Hunter Frankie View this post on Instagram A post shared by glitter_witch_crafts (@gwc_customz) GWC - Custom Frankie Stein MH The story:  I wanted to make a custom doll design based on a drawing I found on Pinterest. If you want to see my inspiration boards please click here for my Pinterest account .  The Process:  I began this project with designing sketches in my notebook. I keep very small and quick drawings. I do this to work out the direction that my building strategies will take. Building the parts of the custom is the fun (IMO) and the most difficult part. Some people focus on face and hair but my intent with creating custom dolls is to make a figurine that matches my taste and interests.  Outcome : I think this build is one of the best I have ever done. The concept from start to finish went fluidly and I did not run into any problems. When I am developing a design I choose to make ...

AAH - Carousel Clouds Brooch 1/28/20 -Accessories/Jewelry/Lolita/Pastel Introducing my latest creations.  My plaster castings follow the same process for each piece. First I prep my plaster. I use DAP brand Plaster of Paris which is basic and not expensive, you mix it with water to activate. Once mixed I pour into hard plastic molds. There are flexible molds for plaster but usually the less flexible molds assist in the curing of the plaster for an even structure through out the cast.  Making plaster castings is hit or miss. Most of them suffer some sort of damage when taking the casts out of the mold. Damages range from cracks and fissures to straight up broken fragments. Dealing with these issues is part of the process and can become a learning experience so it is best to take on these tasks with enthusiasm. Building experience with the medium will make creating these items more enjoyable and less frustrating over time.  e

So two months ago I started on a trip down resin road and I have not yet come back. I really love making coffins specifically. I like geometric shapes and am working on building a collection of molds in various shapes like triangles, hexagons, squares ect. These are just 6 of the designs Ive come up with, if you want to see more designs follow me on instagram: glitter_witch_crafts I have been working on a method for design and how to make a composition. So far I've worked out a plan to make these work.  First off I am using a mold from Sophie and Toffee and its a good mold. There are replicas on ebay and amazon. At this moment I am looking for smaller coffin molds to make daintier charms but cannot find any, now Sophie & Toffee are coming out with another coffin shape mold but I would have to subscribe to get it and I am not looking to take this subscription again. I liked getting the different molds but alot of them I just dont use so I have ventured out to look...
