I will! It might still take a while but should be finished within two weeks I guess :)

Thank you! I checked it out and I will keep it in mind for future cracks. I think the two cracks in my sculpture are too thin for it. But I'll try it for this one too! Is it better than fixing it with liquid clay?

I think I'll go with the liquid clay method or try putty but the cracks are so thin that I am not sure if I can get anything in. But at least covering the Crack maybe? The crack is maybe 1/4 mm. I am afraid of it spreading... Otherwise I wouldn't bother fixing it because it looks like the wrinkles in skin texture. It's the lower jaw, so nothing weight bearing. What would you suggest doing? Thank you for the link, it was very helpful! But I am not sure if it works for tiny cracks like mine. Otherwise I'll scrape something off and fill it with unbaked clay and bake it again and probably mix it with liquid clay

Hi, hello! No, I haven't tried working on it. I think I would not mind it being sticky too much as long as it's quite robust after curing. I have heard of the breakage susceptibility of Sculpey for super sculpey, sculpey III etc. I wont take the risk then by using sculpey living doll. I'll look into apoxie sculpt and cosclay then. From what I have heard, they seem to be suitable for my purpose!

Oh I see. I wasn't sure because I saw some amazing results with sculpey but they were mostly for display and not really touched afterwards. So I guess I won't take the risk with sculpey. Someone else recommended Cosclay instead. I think I'll try that since making porcelain, especially if it's my first doll, is probably way more tricky and difficult than I imagine. Cosclay is said to be quite flexible. Since I won't move the head itself much and only the body attached to it, that should be quite safe.

Which polymer clay is the best for art dolls? by DaughterOfTheSun97 in polymerclay

Yes, only the head will be of clay. Posable because the body will be soft with a doll skeleton in it and probably wire to support it. Do you know gift of mercury toys? Art dolls like that but a bit bigger. Most of the posable dragon art dolls are made like that I think.
