Hi,

Yeah well here in Auz i set my oven to 130 degree and i have a light on my oven that tells me when the temp is set, i then place my doll in that oven for 10 to 13 mins. I also watch my dolls when i bake them just to make sure they are safe and wont melt.

painting wise, you mix the liquid paint thinner to thepain and make the paint as runny as you can and then you use a small spunge and dab it in the paint and onto the doll. You can paint as many or less layers as you like, and if you make a mistake, you can always paint over it or remove it =)

Hope that helps. There are many online versions that can help you how to paint and start your dolly!

Andrea, Jasmine is a lovely sculpt, she is the one I got 95-100 and lost 3 points for not making her cloths, just goes to show judges, don,t know everything. The only difference I would make is to bring her hair line a little more forward. weirdface

yes i found this with my own Jasmine - esp the length of the upper arm. To me the arm length & upper arm is long enough to be a full length not a 3/4. So anyway to bring this a little more to proportion i used a very small upper arm fabric area attachment bit. My mother makes my body's so was about to get her to alter the upper arm fabric part. I still thought they were too "beefy" for the size of the head though, and found it looks best with full sleeves to hid this. I think this sculpt would work well with marissa may's limbs from BB as they are skinnier and better proportioned for a simalar head size.

My Jasmine came with 1/4 limbs, could I do the same thing (shorten the fabric arm)? Or are the 1/4 limbs okay the way they are? Maybe I should try making them 1/2 limbs. :)
