The first step (besides washing it off) was to breakout the pencil and start sketching out the design. I did it in sharpie because the sharpies was easier to see on the blue Munny (Kidrobot was sold out of the white 4″ figures)
Next up was molding the sculpey, I put a few small holes in the head one for a brass wire to support the wild tuft of hair and a few others to create a sort of “key” the theory being that in old time plastering you had a space between the lathe that allowed the plaster to slip through and expand to hold the plaster in place. I was hoping the sculpey would behave similarly.

This is my first attempt at a custom toy…. The base is a 4″ Munny vinyl doll. Take a look at my progress.
Step 1: The initial sketch on the doll, I probably could have done this with out using sharpie, maybe next time.
Step 2: All sculpey-fied and fresh out of the oven, I think one the next one I’ll be taking it apart before baking.
Step 3: Let the painting begin!
Step 4: Nearing the end, there are still a few touch-ups left to do and the whole doll needs to be clear coated but it is about 90% done.
The goal being that it look somewhat like this.
