    I was so surprised when you said the head was “far too small” because I was just thinking about how nicely proportioned it was with the body! It looks absolutely lovely at this size ratio, and still feels true to your style. Creators aren’t beholden to their viewers’ opinions etc etc but I, personally, think the proportion looks excellent.

    • @starpyrateart
      @starpyrateart 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +63

      Agreed! I was thinking the same thing~ Obviously etallan should do what she wants but I think this set of proportions looks lovely as well~

    • @x_snowangel_x4088
      @x_snowangel_x4088 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +60

      I actually liked how well proportioned she is!
      It’s kinda rare to find dolls that don’t have a bobble head with a tiny body but I guess to each their own.

      I agree! The balance is nice

    I actually quite like the smaller head! Makes the doll look more similar to human proportions, and I haven't seen it before! I think it's actually quite cute!

  • @corvigae
    @corvigae 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +177

    Adding my voice to the countless saying that they actually think the smaller head suits the doll really well! Rrgarless though she looks lovely and I adore the touches of vintage art!

      im happy to see her try new things because new things can be scary, i understand the fear of doing things differently.

    @HeXtian 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +61

    wooooow! she looks sooo cool! i love the vintage vibes to her but the overall styling is so current and contemporary as well! we need to see more!!! (maybe friends of hers in different skin colors and fashion styles)!!

      Thanks so much!! Definitely love that idea, would be fun to experiment with colour and style combinations😍

  • @jade3168
    @jade3168 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +242

    I don't know how to put it, but the eyes and her facial structure make her look like no other doll I've ever seen!! It really comes off as your own! I am always excited for your videos, not only for your unique style, but because the clothes always feel real. They fit the dolls perfect, and aren't stiff. They all have weight to them that looks like you shrank down real clothes.

  • @DollyAnna
    @DollyAnna 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +46

    As someone with very dark (nearly black) eyes, hearing you talk about how pretty you find them was so nice🥺 Such a stunning doll! I think your eyebrow placement is fine💕

  • @raehall9987
    @raehall9987 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +123

    Honestly i actually really love the proportions of the head to the body?? I know Etellan mentioned that the head was printed too small and she didnt realize til after it was fully assembled, but it still looks so nice and i think the head size really complements the doll body?? Idk, i just really like the head size and was really surprised when etellan mentioned it was printed small. Genuinely would never have noticed if she didnt say anything

  • @jupiterwatchesvideos
    @jupiterwatchesvideos 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +35

    i'm so used to your past videos with your calm, almost asmr-esque narration. this one you really let yourself go, and i felt i got to know you a bit better through your looser energy!! so excited to see you again, you're one of my favorite doll repainters!!

  • @cheddarcheezit2647
    @cheddarcheezit2647 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +39

    I think a tradgoth doll (or maybe metal?) would be cool to try on your custom BJD base, the intricate makeup would be fun

  • @ivyprior2520
    @ivyprior2520 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +41

    I love the smaller head on the tall body! I think the sculpt would make for a great alien or fae character. I also like the matching of the hair to the skin

  • @beeyondthegrave6581
    @beeyondthegrave6581 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    The smaller head actually gives the silhouette an elegant reverse bratz style. I also love the:
    “If it’s not perfect, then that’s alright!”
    But also: *aggressive dry heaving about imperfections*

    the facial features of the doll are REALLY cool! and the amount of posability is amazing- i love dolls with the double joints on the knees and elbows. personally, i actually like this size of head compared to the body! the finished doll is adorable, and the dark eyes look amazing

  • @brianahawkins8124
    @brianahawkins8124 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +10

    Welcome back Etellan, glad to see your doing ok. Your BJD jointed doll looks adorably gorgeous. Excellent idea using Graphite to sketch out the design, I wonder which doll is up next for your crafting table, see you next time.

  • @fidjilomasy7550
    @fidjilomasy7550 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    That 'shut up' was just too adorable. And I love the design of the doll, the new face has a more imperfect, human look somehow. Just very beautiful.

  • @frankiegalipeau1891
    @frankiegalipeau1891 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I think the head proportion is perfect for this body, I was shocked when you said it was "too small" because it looks so good with the body.

  • @bonesforhome
    @bonesforhome 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +17

    blonde hair suits her so much, so much so that i feel like any hair color will look good on her 😭😭

  • @justineshelburne2401
    @justineshelburne2401 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Love your artwork as always! A project idea in combination with this doll would be creating a group of friends for her, possibly with wildly different styles. Sort of what used to be popular with early to mid-2000s dolls who had stories in the US (Bratz would be the first example I can think of, Monster High being another). I'd love to see your rendition of the idea completely from your own creative mind! I love when you share your inspirations and reasons behind some creative choices in your art, especially when they're tied to specific historical interests you have that just add to the many reasons why you are one of my few favorite doll artists. Looking forward to seeing your next work! You did well in beginning to let go of a little perfectionism!

    I love the how you customized this model! She looks very cartoony and cute, almost like if a real teenage girl was plopped right in the middle of a magical girl anime

  • @lobsterwithoutalife
    @lobsterwithoutalife 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    i actually love the way you place the eyebrows, it gives a very lifelike and versatile expression. to me, even if you didnt start out with a perfect doll you really perfected it by styling it in a way that suits it so beautifully.

    OH I love her! what a cute design! I love the pale pinks and her pretty dark brown eyes, she's absolutely perfect. I don't think her head is too small at all! it looks perfectly proportional to her body actually.

  • @qweerest_uwu

    @Olivia-pj9wy 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

  • @ChangelingTales
    @ChangelingTales 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I adore the new changes to the model! I appreciate all the wonderful ways you have adapted your process to suit your situation. The vintage touches are something that I'm always drawn to in your customs! Also, I've found that prepping the resin with something like Mr. Super Clear will actually alter the texture to take and hold pigment better! It essentially gives it the texture of paper or vinyl. Just make sure it's matte, not gloss. It is about $24.99 or €23.00, so a bit pricey, but one can will last you multiple projects. Mr. Surfacer also works for this as a paint primer, but you do lose that underlying resin color.

  • @christineingram55
    @christineingram55 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    She’s so gorgeous.Your so used to working with dolls with big heads.Shes actually in proportion.I think she’s far softer featured,but a few tweaks she could be a warrior or evil witch.The face mould is more adaptable.I love her 🥰

  • @Lizardonni
    @Lizardonni 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I had a roommate in art school who was always laboring over making something perfect and would never sleep as a result. I am glad you are trying to share even if it isn't perfect to you.
    I know it may get lost in the comments, but no one will see that tiny little thing that you think makes it imperfect, and because you are always improving, perfection doesn't exist, really.
    Congrats on showing her once again, I was always excited to see her when you used her as a base for other customs

    @fabdantesparda 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I love the way you sculpt the faces for your 3D models so much, they're so unique! I absolutely adore the way you handle the noses in particular, they're so lovely. (Also to join the choir, I really like the head to body proportions as well. Like, obviously, this is your design and if you think a bigger head or smaller body is more suited to it then that's the way you should go, but I just wanted to add that)

    A nice hack for doing doll jeans is to buy a pair of children stretch denim jeans. The denim is nearly as thin as cotton and has if course stretches so u can get a really good skinny jeans look. You can also buy shirting denim, which as the name implies, is denim used for making shirts and blouses. Again very thin and non bulky

    @cornflakes-does-stuff 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    the doll turend out super beautiful and so so cute !! Especially love her clothes and the little bag with the vintage illustration is everything, I have to agree with many other commenters that I wouldn't have thought her head was small if you haven't mentioned it, it looks lovely this way as well! Also I think maybe giving yourself more acces to the inside of the head by enlarging the head cap( by which I mean cutting a larger chunk off the "skull" of the doll for it) might help with placing the eyes, I have bjds and they all have pretty much the entire back of the head being the headcap, the "cutline" gets covered up by the wig so there's really no disadvantage to this that I'm aware of.
