When ball jointed dolls emerged in Western Europe in the late 1800s, their most common use is as subjects in photography and they are normally created to be up to 4 feet in height. Artist Hans Bellmer created dolls with ball-joints and used them in photography and other surrealistic artwork which catapulted the idea of artful doll photography that continues today with Japanese doll artists as well as ball jointed doll hobbyists. All ball jointed dolls are readily customizable with wigs and eyes that are easy to remove and replace, as well as heads, hands, and feet fully replaceable. Some ball jointed doll owners or customizers even go to the extent of re-shaping existing parts by sanding them or applying epoxy putty to the parts to be re-shaped. Even the facial feautures of ball jointed dolls could be altered to suit the type of personality of the owner. Ball jointed dolls are made of resin materials that are easier to paint than the softer and more slick vinyl often used for other types of dolls. Ball jointed dolls face paint is referred to as a faceup, to note that it's not just make-up, but all the facial features that are painted and customized, including eyebrows, lips and blushing are done to enhance the features. Faceups and body blushing are most often done with acrylic paint — applied with a regular brush or an airbrush — or soft pastels, and coated with a sprayed-on layer of clear matte sealant for protection. Ball jointed dolls faceups are always painted by hand, and it takes considerable skill to do a detailed, professional faceups. That’s why ball jointed dolls are quite expensive because unlike common dolls with unnatural facial expression, the hand paint job on the doll’s facial features appear very natural and very close to human expressions. The options for wigs and eyes replacements make the ball jointed doll truly unique and therefore command a huge price even for second hand selling.
