Could you please tell us or provide links to the materials you used? I love your content!

I’m sculpting my own but I never understand how to sculpt the joints. Like if there’s a specific way I need to sculpt the slits in the joints or a certain way to hollow them out.

If you have any guides for that it would be awesome!

I am interested in trying to adapt this doll for a String Marionette Puppet - do you think this is possible? how difficult would it be to add tiny eye-hooks for the strings? what is the doll made of? Please and thank you

Is it alright to reuse the old elastics from the doll? It's quite hard to get your hands on elastics where i'm at.
