finally got an idea for these two doll heads that came with my lilith order months ago. they were order bonuses. need to do some sanding when im able to.
waiting on their bodies....they will take awhile.
Cutting out eyes is a nerve wracking experience but uh, i think it will look better after some sanding. hopefully. i have quite a bit of plans for these two, which are planned on being matching dolls. still ironing out some kinks for their designs though since hoo boy, i am going to have a hard time replicating it that well.
Some sketches.


not quite finalized.
looks like i should polish up on embroidery. probably do an off white and off black color.

got the bodies. CFdoll on the left in white, and Senmi body on the right in cream. The senmi body is really good for posing since it has grooves in the joints that hold the pose and prevents the joints from slipping when you pose it. Basically locks the pose. It has a nice weight and feel to it despite being PVC. Cfdoll is made of ABS and there are some rough bits on it, but not a major issue. C9 still needs sanding for his eye...got to find and get a pen sander later. S1 is ready to go though, and doing a test face up on her to get a feel. Since these heads are made of PVC, they have a lot more varnish layers to protect the plastic since Pvc stains easier than resin. I wonder if I should get a Senmi body for C9 to better match the two and there now being a lighter color in production, but I think its fine for now.

an update on these two. got their wigs and did their faces. not really liking C9's faceup but there's always an opportunity to redo it. Just finished sanding his eyewell after finally managing to borrow a dremel and did his faceup after that. their wigs are troublesome to style, since S1's wig is so thin that I can't do the fluffy bob I wanted in her concept art. C9's hair is ok since it doesn't require any cuts, but i probably need to find a better method to style his bangs along with S1's since the glue mix isn't holding her bangs.
here's some photos of them without their hair.



I need to do C9's scars on his closed eye but since they're shaped in a way, I need to get some colored pencils and figure out what color to use for his scars. deciding on black, white, or a shade of grey. probably also need to redo his face again or at least his eyebrows. S1 is good to go though. Need to figure out their clothes. I'm planning on an offwhite and black.
Since C9's body finally arrived a week or two ago, I can finally continue this disaster of a BJD project.
On a note, the 1/6 Senmi body in White is a good match for TinyFox white, and the Normal tone is a good match for TinyFox Peach.

The body is PVC despite being strung, so a heads up to those worried about stains. Mines don't have stains so far since there's no coating and it's hard PVC, but just a thing of note.
Also here's a comparison to the old CFDoll body that was supposed to be C9's OG body.
