First Attempt at MSD BJD Sandals Brown Suede 2

Description

Yesterday I made my first try at a tiny pair of sandals for my MSD BJD Lumedoll Rischa (Seris). By the time I was done the sun had begun to come down so I just took a picture today, after class.


These are made with polymer clay, "Shoe Goo," and a very lovely chocolate brown suede. They fit very well on my doll, at 6 cm long.

There are a few things I want to improve upon when I make the next pair:
1) I need to practice cutting straight lines! It seems like such a simple thing, but on this scale even being just a tiny bit off here or there can make all the difference.
2) I am absolutely going to need to explore different materials to make the bottoms of the shoes out of. Polymer clay is ok for these, but when I am looking into heeled boots and pumps for my female dolls I am going to need to incorporate a support structure.
3) I am going to need some thin craft foam to even out the soles as the leather/suede straps warp the shape of the soles without this.



For anyone interested, I plan to offer custom order shoes in my etsy shop in the future(read after this semester is over, possibly not until spring break)! If you're interested, please let me know and I can practice the style of shoe you would like to see offered! I am still undecided as to how to charge for shoes, but please keep in mind that the quality of materials and the amount of time/skill put into your custom pair of shoes are not easy to come by! :P (Lick)


I am very confused as to what to classify these as. What category would you put miniature suede sandals in? >.>
