You really could do either. In this case, I probably would list them separately, but maybe include a couple of pics of them together, mentioning that the twin is also available in a separate listing. They should contact you if they want to buy as a set so you can combine shipping.
I wish very much that there was a no-selling Facebook page that just shared ‘less-loved’ sculpts. Not only would this possible create greater interest in sculpts other than the super popular ones, it would also help drive more traffic to artists…I have found that most artist I like only sell through their FB pages and sometimes it’s very hard sort through them all.
I don’t like gaping mouth sculpts either. I seem to not like the ones everyone else loves. Although… I do try and buy and paint sculpts I don’t care for, it’s easier to not keep them!!!
Idk about the rest of you, but I have a really hard time painting kits that I don’t like. Each layer is a struggle and I don’t usually like the finished result either.
Me too. I can never paint kits I don’t like. I just get mad at them and do a bad job. I’m not a crazy huge fan of a lot of kits people LOVE, like April or Sunny. If I was then I would probably have better sales since the ones I love don’t usually sell well lol
If you ladies could pick 2 sculpts that you think would sell well, which ones would you pick? I’ve done most of the popular Bonnie Brown kits and don’t really want to paint them again. I have a customer making a final payment on a custom soon so once she gets the doll I should have enough for 2 more kits.
BB Quinn would be a popular, affordable sculpt. As would 3 mo Joseph. You could do seconds kits and price them as such and do a (hopefully) quick flip. @YelenaRey already sold Paisley, so maybe she is a good one, too! Congrats @YelenaRey !!
Not buying BB kits though lol I live in Canada and it costs too much. 30$ USD shipping and 35$ CAD customs fees at the door. It’s cheaper for me to buy “expensive” sculpts from MacPhersons.
There are, like the Elisa Marx kits are all under 90 but they don’t seem popular. Salia is beautiful but she’s too small to find clothes for and I don’t think I could sell her for enough to pay the prices for custom tiny doll clothes
