How to get Robin in the future... The Early Bird Preorder is SOLD OUT. This was a very small edition (limited to ONLY 10 dolls) because these dolls are Artist Samples that come to me blank from the casting studio and I will hand-paint myself. This early sale greatly helps in funding the setup costs involved in producing a new sculpt and helps me know how much interest there is in the doll. I am so happy to see there is a lot of enthusiasm for Robin! ❤️ I know that in limiting the edition that means some people were unable to get Robin this time, so here is more info about future orders. Once I paint the Artist Sample dolls I will send them to participants of the early preorder and I will also send my painted masters to the casting studio. After approval of their master copies, then I can run an official preorder for Robin. This will happen later this year. Thank you all again for your warm welcome of Robin and I can't wait to share more info as soon as possible! #forevervirginia #dollartist #bjd #bjdpreorder #bjdsale

The Early Bird Preorder is NOW OPEN for Robin! ❤️ MY SHOP 👉 https://ift.tt/WypUnjc This is a new thing I'm trying out so please let me know if you have any questions. Robin is a completely new doll sculpt and body. Joining this early bird preorder will help me pay for the setup costs and let me know the interest in this doll. 🌼 What's the SAME as regular preorders: - You will receive a nude doll with random glass eyes. - The doll is professionally cast in resin like all my dolls (the photo you see here is a rough PLA prototype). 🌼 What's DIFFERENT about this preorder: - No layaway is offered this time (future preorders will have extended layaway). - Quantity is limited to only 10 dolls (5 each in peach and nutmeg). - Dolls will be hand-painted by me (I'm not charging extra for this). - You will get the dolls at the earliest possible date because these are my artist samples (still about a 6-month wait). - There may be minor changes between these artist samples and future dolls (for instance the headcap and the hands will be updated with magnetic attachments). #forevervirginia #dollartist #bjd #bjdpreorder #bjdsale

I'm sure many of you will be glad to hear that Robin can wear clothes for Little Meili - that was a nice discovery! Height - 34cm/13.3in Wig size - 6-7 inch Eye size - 10mm oval Clothes - Slim 12-13in dolls such as Marbles Halls "Little Meili" by Connie Lowe Shoes - 4.5-5cm length (various YOSD, same as my Bubba dolls) #forevervirginiarobin #doll #bjd #dollartist

Posing gallery for Robin - Although this is just a prototype printed in PLA, and not the poured resin that she will be made from, I am still proud of her posing abilities! This doll body is definitely my most flexible and elegant creation to date. 🥰 #forevervirginiarobin #dollartist #bjd #doll

After testing out several size variations, I still like this version of Robin the best. She stands about 13.5 inches / 34cm tall. I also liked a smaller version and will possibly make a "junior" size in the future with similar but shorter proportions. Robin is pictured here with several other dolls I've created. L-R: Bee, Piper, Tumble, Robin, Murphy and Briar (Sweetheart version). #ForeverVirginiaRobin #dollartist #bjd #doll

She finally told me her name. It's Robin! ❤️ I'm doing a final size test and printing at 90% and 110% to see how I like it. Then this doll is off to casting and I start the looooong wait for samples. 😭 At least I will have my prototype to play with in the meantime. #dollartist #bjd #doll #3dprinting

sculpting > printing > sculpting... it’s an all-day cycle here until I get this doll finished and off to casting. I think I’ve filled up about 3 gallon bags of parts in the process of testing and refining and redesigning... and I haven’t even started jointing the arms yet!! 😰 My husband took this bag of rejects to school for the art teacher to share with her class so that was cool. I did remove the blank heads first though to reduce the “creepy” factor for those fourth-graders. 🤣 #forevervirginia #dollartist #bjd #3dprinted #dollstagram bjdmaking bjdsculpting digitalsculpting sculpting

Almost every day I work more on sculpting my new doll. It is a true labor of love. ❤️ Here is a sneak peek! Just keep in mind that many things are still in development including overall size. #forevervirginia #doll #dollartist #bjd #3dprinted #dollstagram #bjdmaking #bjdsculpting #digitalsculpting #sculpting

New doll WIP update! ❤️ Last time you saw I had finished the rough clay prototype and started recreating my new doll from scratch digitally. Now I have my 3D printer setup so I am able to print prototypes to refine the size and shape and see how it looks in the hand - which is super exciting! 😃😃😃 As you can see from the bird's nest, it's not all smooth sailing but for the most part I'm very happy to finally have this addition to my artistic process in place. It's going to be invaluable for the next stage of jointing and in-hand testing before I send to the casting studio. #dollartist #bjd #artphotography #3dprinting
