Disney Tarzan, Jane & Clayton 11" Custom Dolls
Posted: Fri Jun 02, 2017 6:17 pm
Just finished a set of Tarzan custom dolls for a commission! We made 2 Tarzan dolls (loincloth and suspenders versions) and 2 Jane dolls (Victorian yellow dress and Jungle outfit) and a Clayton doll.
For both Tarzan dolls, we used Disney Store action figure 1/6 dolls, removed his moulded hair and rooted new hair in dreadlocks style, and I carved his jawline to be thinner to look more like his cartoon movie self, and repainted his face entirely. For the suspenders Tarzan, I also carved his mouth and eyebrow area to be more gentle, smiling, and kind, rather than glaring.
For Jane, we used the Mattel Jane 11″ doll heads, mounted them Disney Store poseable bodies, and I rerooted her hair to be more cocoa rich brown, restyled them, and repainted her faces to be ‘happy’ in the yellow dress doll, and loving in the Jungle outfit doll. My sis made the Jungle outfit entirely, while the yellow dress is a reworking of the Mattel outfit. It’s almost completely redone, actually—just the collar and sleeves remained intact.
Clayton is a complete OOAK---I sculpted the head and mounted it on a Mattel Tarzan 11" body. My sister made his outfit and I styled and rooted his hair.
Hope you like them!!!
