Description So, I'm in the process of making his clothes.
People asked me many times if Ascker could stand unsupported considering he has heels and there are no stoppers in his ankles. As many other dolls with high-heeled feet he can do this only in proper shoes. He has 46 mm from the heel to the toe, it could be compared to the Yo-SD size, and Yo-SD dolls are usually not higher than 30 cm.

Well, actually he beats most Asian BJDs of a similar size in this ability but this wasn't my intent as I never bothered with him standing, I just have a dollstands for this purpose.

Some info on clothes:
1. A blouse is made of silk, cuffs are completely removable. A removable collar is not put on because his brooch is not ready (I ordered some huge blue gem on ebay).
2. Leggings are made of a fake suede, just because natural suede takes body shape too readily, and I'd like to avoid bagginess on the joints after some time sitting. The fabric is not stretchy so I cut the details on the bias. Nonhuman anatomy caused some issues (no prominent buttocks, huge iliacs) but I managed to adjust the shape after some tweaking.
3. A high-heeled boots are made of a leather entirely, glued with a proper glue, heels are made of wood and covered with leather. As you can see the area of bearing is rather small.

Hope to finish his full attire soon.

Material: Apoxie Sculpt
Construction: BJD
Points of articulation: 21
Overall height: 60 cm + horns

Is it male or female? I think of it as a male... I didn't think it was that big though, until I read the description. I think he would look much cuter if he was smaller, like 30 cm tall
I fell in love with it, so I think I'm gonna try and do it myself , but i'm probably going to fail terribly, i have no experience at all in resin dolls and this kind of stuff

Thanks a lot!
Do you want the truth? He is initially sexless, no hormones, no appropriate organs. But he plays male gender role in his society. Well, you guessed correctly
I like big dolls so I made him 60 cm tall))
Wish you good luck in sculpting BJDs, it's a great fun!

He looks really fantastic.
I'm surprised he's made from Apoxie Sculpt!
I love that stuff, but never thought of this application for it.

Those clothes and boots suit him well ♥

Thank you! Yeah, Apoxie Sculpt is just perfect for making one of a kind BJDs if you want not only to display them but to play with them too! I love the stuff to bits and I'm so happy I discovered it!

you are very welcome!

Well that is just awesome.
One day, I'll give it a go~

I had to order a big batch of Apoxie online, since I can only find the small jars in a local hobby shop here.

Hehe, there is no Apoxi distributor in my country at all so I always buy 4-pound packs at Aves! It's so convenient! Small jars are way more expensive.

BeanSproutMomo In reply to scargeear [2012-08-02 15:17:38 +0000 UTC]

oh wow! Those are the big ones, but I guess for sculpting a whole doll you would need a lot. ♥

scargeear In reply to BeanSproutMomo [2012-08-02 17:18:46 +0000 UTC]

Yes, but it depends)) Ascker weights about 1400 grams, and 600 more grams went to the trash in the process of sanding and cutting. Not much as for me, just about 4 pounds. If the doll is sculpted out of plasticine and then recreated in Apoxie via plaster molds there is almost no leftovers.
