Another test print of the head at 1:1 without eye lashes with a more neutral face expression... and a full body print in miniature 1:10

Finally have created all the mould parts needed for casting Aleyshas eye lashes, eyebrows, eyes left and right and upper and lower teeth and magnet capsules. No idea how this will turn out but still need to make a test socket for the teeth to test if my idea for attaching them to the skull actually works.
While I was thinking about how this thing would look when put together... I realized that I will need to separate the teeth from the skull so they can be a different color. Else we'll have either pink teeth or a white mouth interior or I'd need to paint them which I really don't want to do. Not sure what the best way is to insert teeth into the skull frame so I'm going to make this my first attempt. Going to make silicone moulds for the teeth with some flaps on them and slits in the jaw of the skull where the flaps will slot in to keep the teeth in place.
Continuing to refine the shape of the underlying skull for cyberdoll. Also starting to really think about where to place the face attachment points. I'm sure this will need some revisions down the line once I actually start putting it together.
3d printed the eye socket section of the skull today to test if the silicone eyeball I cast before will fit. All seems to be in order.
Bought some 6x3 mm neodymium magnets because I'm planning to attach the silicone face to the skull using embedded magnets. So there will be magnets embedded in the skull and some embedded in the silicone of the face to keep everything in place. Did not get much done today but I am anticipating mistakes with magnet orientation. So modeled and 3d printed a socket for one of the magnets and superglued it in there. Then used this reference magnet and a permanent marker to mark the same pole on all magnets. That should make it easier to keep track of the magnet orientation during the building process. Also made a mould for encasing a magnet in silicone. Will test that next.
