1st Japanese Artist of Japanese Ball Jointed Doll Posts

Kaoru Mori-here is the only 2 sites I could find:

http://www010.upp.so-net.ne.jp/g-hihou/

As quoted from musiee-erotisme.com...

"Mori started making dolls in 1998. Mori seeks to create dolls that generate both glamour and eroticism deep inside. When one sees such doll, his/her mind would ruffle with sensual and lyric feelings."

Cernit!

2010-12-27T09:52:00.000-08:00

"Cernit is one of the strongest clays.

(It was once considered the very strongest, but Kato Polyclay may now have out-performed it.) Though easily conditioned, it is also very flexible when cured.

There are many colors available-27 standard colors, 18 pearlescent colors, 6 neon colors, 6 "nature colors", and 7 colors specially formulated for dolls.

Cernit is a popular clay among ooak doll-makers because of its translucent quality and the porcelain-like finish it has after curing."

I received my first batch! My experience so far has been great.

Cernit does warm up quickly so I am experimenting with placing my sculptures in the freezer for about 2-5 minutes at a time.

The coldness hardens it again. I would not leave it in there too long as it seem to release percipitation if left to long in the freezer.

Even with it being cooled I try not to hold the Cernit too long.

Since I am still working on my BJD I have not had a chance to bake it yet.

COMPARISON TO SUPER SCULPY>

Super Sculpy seems to stay firmer a tad longer.

Cernit's color is more appealing.

I will make more comparisons once I bake the Cernit.

WELCOME!

Thank you for visiting my blog"Jointed"

I am revamping my blog completely for the New Year.

I want to FOCUS not only on resin ball-jointed-dolls but also on Japanese porcelain ball-jointed dolls, One-of-A-Kind (OOAK) fairies,ooak art dolls,automata,steampunk and the sculpture culture.

I currently work with polymer clays. I am about to dive into porcelain!

This blog will also display my progress in on my own OOAK sculptures.

It will also display and discuss my personal collection of OOAK ART.

I really want to promote my fellow OOAK/NON-OOAK artisans.

SO IF YOU WANT TO ADVERTISE ON MY BLOG LET ME KNOW!
