New Dollhouse Dolls arrived.
These are not made for the commissioned roombox, they are already in their place. Though the dolls are also made by my Mom.
Second Doll
These last several days I’ve been busy with working drawings for the upcoming project, so I had to stop working on my last piece of furniture, there isn’t much to do there, so I hope to show it to you this week later. So for now, my second attempt in dollmaking – she’s about 7cm high, so it’s just the right scale.
I had to put some clothes on her, but I’m planning to make proper one later. Sorry for the quality again, I didn’t have my own instruments, magnifiers etc.
And of course, my main problem was face painting -no magnifiers, no proper light, and the result is not that good, next time only with lights.
And the last photo 🙂
My First Doll
My long-long holidays are over! Finally! I couldn’t wait to get back to work, especially when there’s lots and lots of it ahead. It’s super hot in Moscow, seems like the summer has come. During all this month I had no access to my tools and equipment, so the only thing that could entertain me was sculpting and stitching. So here it is, my first doll. It’s a long story, actually, during this year I was slowly learning sculpting and anatomy, I’ve manage to sculpt couple of skulls, heads, etc. The only thing I was lazy and reluctant to do was a doll. With the help of my Mom I finally did it!
I love sculpting kids much more than grown-ups, to be honest. She’s not that miniature though, almost 17 cm height.
She doesn’t have any clothes yet, I have to make some soon. I can’t say I’m fully satisfied with this doll, but for the first time (especially when I made her with instruments that were not mine, with bad lights etc). At least my Mom liked it. 🙂
I have another girl, perfectly in scale, but that’s a different story. I think I should make some furniture for my first doll too.
And some more photos:
Victorian Style
I would never consider myself as a huge fan of Victorian style, probably because I haven’t seen the examples that would look just right for me. And this time I think I’ve found some. One of my latest commissions:
Sharing some photos
Found some pretty awesome photos from mini shows in Italy and Spain
