BJD Doll resin cast with Smooth-Cast 300 Series • First attempt • Relax process video

Hi! I am visual artist from Ukraine and my current big project is a series of Ball-jointed Dolls (BJD). I decided to share some parts of the process with you.
For a year and a half I’ve been working on a doll master model itself and now I am ready for resin cast. In this video I show my first attempt in resin cast with two-part plastic.
Enjoy!
Materials:
For silicone molds I’ve been using the Smooth-On Mold Star™ 15 and the resin is Smooth-Cast 305
!For safety reasons I wear glasses, mask and rubber gloves and keep the window open for the ventilation during all the casting process!

Awesome, thank you so much for this. What colour do you use to have the skin colour for the resin?

[@katesamostudio]

Hello! these are marbo pigments, in the shop where I bought them it called "nude"

[@danamitkov]

Wow, this is so pretty! Do you sell molds?

[@katesamostudio]

Hi! No, I am making them specifically for my dolls:)

[@Maria-db9yb]

Please tell me what product you use to tint the resin?!

[@katesamostudio]

Hi! Here in this video I use Marbo, but now I use only Smooth- on tints

How did you keep hollow every part?

[@katesamostudio]

Hi! I don’t do hollow parts anymore, didn’t like the result, I just drill the inside

[@ScoobyDoo-bx8vr]

What resin did you use? Did you have to degas it?

[@katesamostudio]

Hi! I am using mold star 15 and yes, I degas it
