Hi everyone, I was wondering if you have ever made a doll mold for polymer clay (instead of porcelain)? I like the fact that I can still change the features after casting. I am working on a new sculpture and I would like to make a mold. What are your experiences? Do you have any tips? I ordered a special dentist plaster (hydro-stome 200) for the mold, which is very hard and captures small details. I am very curious how it will turn out!

That is a very cute doll! I wish there was a class near me, but it's always so far away!
Thank you for the advice and the link of the book. I love working with living doll sculpey. The 'flesh' looks so real!
I am still not fully decided if I want to go for polymer clay dolls or porcelain dolls. I read about it and I am a bit hesitant of starting with porcelain because the kiln is a treshold and the dust when cleaning after casting. I hate to wear mask, haha. 🤣 On the other hand I think it is almost impossible to make a mold for the hands (if you want separate fingers) when working with polymer clay... Do you know about other mediums for casting dolls?
