Noting this down for myself...
Legs - Similar to Sileas' legs. She has this absolutely awesome mobility joint just below her hips on each leg that I didn't realise were locking pieces that let her legs bend upward to nearly bring her knees to her chest. Must work with this. Also debating whether to add the upper arm mobility joint just below the shoulder, or just above the elbow.
Knee and elbow joints will have a slightly hollowed back on the upper parts. Less 'realistic', when you look at it, but will allow for the full flexibility I want with this doll.
Feet - Will need two sets cast. Normal standing feet, and pointed toe feet.
Single jointed doll, however with a ridge at the elbow and knee to allow the joint to lock into place for half-bend and full bend. This will likely be easier than trying to make it double jointed, but will still give the flexibility.
Body will be most definitely male, but with some softness and curves that you would find on a female doll. Face will (hopefully) be androgynous.
Photo inspiration for this doll, and visual benchmarks for flexibility will be Karis Wilde. Beautiful man, and one hell of a hula hoop dancer. The doll will not be a 'Karis doll', but I'm going to be looking heavily at his build and musculature for reference.
I need graph paper. Like NOW.
