Sculpt a Miniature Doll's Torso

Create the Shoulder Line for the Doll's Torso

Add small balls of polymer clay to the shoulder area of the doll's torso to build the shoulder slightly higher than the chest area.

Add Clay to the Shoulder Area To create the correct shoulder line for a doll, add clay to the shoulder area to form a slightly raised rounded shoulder. Women's shoulders are more rounded and raised than are men's. You can check the view of a man's torso by looking at the photo of the resin male doll body on the Body Proportion Page.
