Introducing Smart Doll skin tone resin for 3D printers - Coffee, Tea, and Cinnamon.
This was developed in collaboration with
Resione, whose materials we’ve already been using in-house during the development of the Evolve Frame. Their resin stood out for its mechanical strength - printed parts behave much closer to tough thermoplastics, making them suitable for drilling, fastening, and functional use rather than just display.
For modders and customizers, this removes a major step. Matching Smart Doll skin tones previously meant painting, often with imperfect results. Now parts can be printed directly in the correct tone, making prototyping faster and one-off or small-batch parts far more practical.
The material is part of Resione’s TH-BJD line - a tough resin designed for articulated parts, offering accurate detail, smooth surface finish, and high resistance to wear and handling.
The ASL “I Love You” hand and elf ears shown were printed using Smart Doll Resione resin. With light sanding and no paint, the color match is already a close fit. The printed elf ears also fit more precisely than vinyl, as the geometry is preserved.
Both items, along with many other Smart Doll option parts and accessories, are available as
free STL downloads on the Smart Doll website.
This release lines up with the upcoming Cyber Shell Cortex, built for customization. Its modular design allows 3D printed parts to attach directly to the body in ways vinyl can’t. Parts can be printed in matching tones and installed after basic finishing. Select STL files will also be available to use or modify.
We worked closely with the Resione team to develop these colors to be as close as possible to Smart Doll skin tones. While resin and vinyl are different materials and an exact 1:1 match isn’t possible, we’re really happy with how they turned out.
Smart Doll skin tone resins under the TH-BJD line are available on the Resione website and Amazon US.
