Description Wow, I must be doing something right, because I like the way his head looks in the first picture.

Sorry for the date on the photos. I'm too lazy to crop them out.

Here is ANOTHER update of my Gargoyle BJD, Nicodemus. He's not completely assembled like he is here: [link] . I didn't want to risk some body part falling off and getting damaged AGAIN, since he's only made of clay right now. He's had way too many accidents.

His tail's been lying around for about a month now, so I figured I should take a picture to show you guys what it looks like. I also added some detail to his lower torso piece, as well as made new ears for him. The old pair was really flimsy and was coming apart. Plus these ears have more detail in them now, so it all worked out in the end.

I haven't started his wings yet. As soon as I have money to spare, I'm gonna buy some Super Sculpy, that way I can bake his wings. I think they would be too thin and flimsy during the molding process to try to make molds of.

Hope you guys enjoy!

Oh, and if you have any suggestions, please feel free to comment. I'll still debating whether or not I want to do a 3 piece toros set instead of 2, and if I want to add a mobility joint to the upper tigh pieces. I really would love the thoughts of BJD owners, your opions about how I should approach the sculpt of him. I ask because I do not have a BJD of my own yet, and even though I have purchased a SOOM MD Cuprit(which I'm excited about!), she probably won't arrive for another 1-3 months. So, again, if you have any suggestions, please feel free to leave them!

This is soooo good! My bjd (i only have 1 at the moment) has an upper thigh peice so you can move it and it gets on my nerves a lot. I'm always having to fix her leg so it'll be facing the right direction.

Any updates on his progress? I'm really curious to see him in the full ^^ I'm also curious on how well he stands! I'm looking for good style reference for some dragon legs I'll be sculpting soon and his legs have the general ascetic I want to go for

Unfortunately, no. I haven't worked on him for so long. I'm hoping I could get back to working on him soon, but there are other time consuming commitments I have to get out of the way first.

he is quite the labour of love!!!
I read that you are unsure about wings... how to mold...
you should talk with VW... she is making fae with wings so she can help you with what she has learnt of molding wings...

I was only coming to return a llama, and I saw this. And I am sooooo amazed by it! It is so seriously awesome~ How far has you gotten on it as of now? And did you ever decide on a two or three piece torso?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

ShinigamiDuoLover In reply to romanletters [2010-05-03 21:45:58 +0000 UTC]

First, thank you for the llama!

Thank you very much! You're so sweet!

Unfortunately, he's currently pretty much is the same as he is in this picture. The combination of my full time job and lazy butt has interfered with my progress on him. But when SOOM released their gargoyle doll, it re-sparked my passion for this guy! I've decided to go with a 2 piece torso, as seen in this image.

^^

I am oh so very sweet~ *is shot*

I do can understand how it can't be worked on a lot, being a lazy ass myself (although I haven't got a job to keep me occupied). However, I do hope to see this finished sometimes. I mean, SOOM's gargoyle is awesome in it's own way (however I aren't that sold on the ears, and yours have a tail!), so I really hope to see a finished BJD in the end. It's is way to awesome to not finish~

So well, will watch in hope of giving you more passion! 8D And to see other stuff. ^^

ShinigamiDuoLover In reply to romanletters [2010-05-04 16:42:22 +0000 UTC]

I'm don't think I'm sold on the ears either. And the worst part is that this is bigger than SOOM's Super Gems, so its not like I can take another grey head from another grey doll and slap it on, the head would be slightly small...

I'm having second thoughts about ordering him. I mean, he's cool and all, but he's not MY guy. Plus I'd rather save up and get Souldoll's Centaur! Or I may wait to see what next month's MD tinies look like, because they'll be gargoyle themed, and I'm sure they'll be horribly adorable!

Thanks for watching! I'm have a few watchers that are watcher me strickly for my gargoyle boy, so I really need to finish him for them(and of course MYSELF as well)!

Thank you very much! I plan to. But I also have a strong desire right now to make a Na'vi (from Avatar) LARGE BJDs! But I have to get this guy done first! Thanks for looking!

ooo awsome a Na'vi would be cool though im guessing that would defiantly take a long time haha.

ShinigamiDuoLover In reply to baby-death [2009-12-31 17:10:20 +0000 UTC]

I'll start with the heads first and then see if I'm up for doing bodies. For me the faces are the most interesting part of the Na'vi.

yeah they are really fasinating and the nose type is obviously diffrent and the jaw line and forhead. Pluss the eyes are much bigger. though i know for a fact the body and faceup would take ages for sure!! i think they have amazing skin xD

Shifters-Child [2009-10-10 22:13:25 +0000 UTC]

Wow, I really like that tail. Is it jointed the way it looks...like will it be able to move once you have the finished molds done, b/c that would be soo cool.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

ShinigamiDuoLover In reply to Shifters-Child [2009-10-11 03:51:43 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, its pretty much jointed to way it looks. If it works that way I think it will, its going to be really flexible. And if I get the tension in the tail right, it should be able to hold most poses.
