My homemade foam doll

Post by allensu »

I made some modification. This is the 4th version.

1. full body with skeleton, pelvis, spine.
2. I use foam sheet as shin, cotton filling, use silicone as clue.
3. with flashlight insert.

Now she looks more real and when you hug her.... god... feel real !!

I have not done arms, head and lower leg. I use leftover silicone to make 2 round balls as breast. I like pretty butt and leg, I don't care about breast that much...

Here is the link to album.

Suggestion please..

ok... here are some detail.

Please forgive my English, its not my first language.

1. I use Halloween plastic skeleton that I bought in walmart, and cut out the ribcage. Fill it with anything that will increase weight, such as newspaper or cloth.

2. For pelvis, I use wood to make a frame, then touch up using craft clay (white color). Insert my flashlight case while I apply clay on so that after it dry, I can put my flashlight insert in.

3. connect 1 and 2 using a bedspring, or those spring which can close your fencing gate door automatically. I bought it from home depot.

4. use "wire tube", I don't know the name in English, to connect legs and pelvis. Its the thing which made of aluminum, and you put wire inside to hide and make it neat and pretty. Wire tube is strong and you can only bend it around 90-100 degree, and it won't break that easily. You can find it easily in any hardware store.

5. use PVC tube I got from garbage room as leg.

6. cover both leg with panty hose, fill in some cotton as filling. I use my old cotton pillow...

7. cut 2 butt shape foam to reinforce butt and make it soft. old foam pillow will work.

8. cover the while body with 1 inch foam sheet, and the rest is art and craft work.

I study hard and plan a lot before I start to make my 4th modification. I got my idea from pictures of women body, SD doll, anthropology books.... If you use memory foam as skin, it will be even better, but.... I don't want to spend that much money.

The total I spend on making this torso is less then 50 bucks.

It sounds like you put a lot of thought, time and effort into your doll and it shows! She really turned out great! :)

I post my 3rd version here around 1 year ago, no response. It took me a lot of time to plan and come up with the best solution.

The biggest challenge for me was her "body line" of her lower torso. I want her butt and leg to look real when you move them in the position you want.

And when you hug her, she feel like real girl... ( Yah, I am married, I know..)

I will focus on her lower leg, and arms next. Then head and breast..

I moved the double post to inventors corner as well because it just doesn't belong to torsodoll forum, and locked the other thread. Hope this is okay will everybody.

feedback from the other thread :
Fetish wrote:nice work! How did you make this doll, more details.
siliconegrapes wrote:Wow, nice work! Not bad at all for something you made out of foam! :) You should probably post this in "Inventors Corner" though. You'll get more feedback there since this torso doll section is for torsodoll.com dolls. :)
I could split those replies off the old thread, but I don't think you can add them to another thread already existing, at least I didn't know how to... hence the quotes so nothing is lost

WOW!! I just know I'm gonna be making my own one of these days. I've been reading up on it. This one is very very inspiring. An extremely nice rear end and legs. I like the idea of the fleshlight insert, and find the idea of using other inserts quite appealing as well. The steps you followed are great for anyone to use to start from the ground up. Superb.

I bet she is very soft.

:D

Too bad Photobucket censored some of the photos. What are left shows some real creativity and a nice form. It sure beats two pillows, a stuffed bra, a small belt, a towel and flaired lubed toilet paper roll :D Ah those teenage years with the raging hormones!

You did some excellent work in shaping her with the foam sheet! She has a very nice bottom. :)

Thanks all.

I study, test and test how to make it looks good. This time I am really happy about the result.

Sorry about that album, I delete them already. Does anyone know a better free album that I can use?


I do need some suggestion, which I will consider to make her looks better.

Nice job Allensu. The rear area looks very realistic. Can you explain how you managed to fill the butt area in without any lumpy-ness? It looks very smooth in the pictures. I don't see any visible seams, how did you make it like that? Thanks.
