This video is so informative!! So soothing and mesmerizing to watch, as well. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise!! I have experience working with earthenware and stoneware clay, but I’ve never worked with porcelain. My grandma is a collector of dolls and when my grandpa passed recently, I was struck with the idea of creating a doll for her based on a photo of him as a child dressed up in a cowboy costume. This video is giving me the confidence I needed to try my hand at this phenomenal craft. Thank you!! 💕
You and your work is abslutely INCREDIBLE, not just gifted in terms of your skill, but these videos are completely relaxing AND satisfying! I hit the "like" and "subscribe" buttons, and will absolutely be back for more soon! Thanks soooo much!
thank you so much for such a nice comment! I really appreciate that, it spurs me on. I'm working on another mammoth video now, so hopefully it won't be too long
@@AmandaParkinsonArt Don't worry about length...I for one didn't want it to end! (I came here, looking for a solution to an issue I'm facing...may I ask your opinion? I have a Vintage(approx 35-45yrs old) Nativity set, with figures ranging from 3"-7", I believe they're made from a kind of bisque porcelain, and painted in very light, almst watercolorish pastels. Anyway, the main figure of baby Jesus, He's in a flat, "laying down" position, and a few years back, He had a terrible accident-His left arm snapped off. The figures-being Vintage, possibly even older and antique-certanly are irreplaceable at this point. I'm wondering if you might have any ideas how the piece could be repaired...and where? Thank you SO very much, from the bottom of my heart, this means the world to me!!
For something this precious I would definitely be looking for a "doll doctor". They are sometimes at doll shows/fairs that come up throughout the year. I would call some of the doll show organizers and ask if they have contact details for a doll doctor or someone who specifically does porcelain repairs. If it was my own doll and I didn't still have the mould to make another one, I would use some white milliput to join the two pieces back together. It wouldn't be a perfect repair though and I think something that important should be repaired professionally. Sorry I couldn't be of more help, I hope you find someone!
The fact that you can get so much done with just your fingers is amazing. The face is kindof already there by the time you've started using tools! That's so cool
This is incredible.. How is the free edge of the red brocade bound/secured? It looks to me like a blanket stitch of gold metallic machine thread.. Do you use fray-check or interfacing? I'll have to watch more of your videos. :)
I would be very careful if using a porcelain head instead of a sculpture. It would technically work the same but if there are any undercuts, your porcelain head will get stuck in the plaster. If you only have one porcelain head you may lose it. At least if you sculpt the head yourself, you can always make another one if things go wrong :)
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful tutorial! ❤ I'm having trouble finding those greenware cleaning brushes you showed there, do you know what they're called and where I could find them? Thanks in advance! 🥰
Thank you, I'm glad you liked the tutorial! I bought these particular brushes from an online store called "Porcelain Dolls By Me". They're called Kwik Clean Brush Kit on her website. I hope that helps! Sorry for the delay in responding

Thank you so much! I've always found it easier to dial in big shapes with my fingers because tools can leave unwanted marks :)

Remarcable ! Great sense of all the procedure ! Well done
Thank you kindly!
Would this method work if I was trying to make a mold from a preexisting porcelain doll head that I’m trying to replicate?
I would be very careful if using a porcelain head instead of a sculpture. It would technically work the same but if there are any undercuts, your porcelain head will get stuck in the plaster.

You need clay to make the prototype. Keep watching, I show how to make the mould and then make the porcelain face 😁
