A Dolls Life

I enjoy making dolls.
I don't really need a pattern, because I can see the human body shape in my head.
With people, you can customize them and they can become anything you can dream. Famous people, family, friends, aliens, anything.
For my most recent, I made my friend Riana.
The hair is not quite right, and after 30 mins of brushing it -I gave up. Most of it is loose.
I was trying to make it as if she straightened her curls. The front was the hardest. She usually pins it to the side...but the bangs were cut a little short.

When I made the Marie doll, I basically gave her no hands. With this newest, I tried to see what would come of "hands". She kind of has flippers, but you can tell they're hands.

Riana has a classical style. I was going to give her a simple cocktail gown, but I than came up with an everyday dress with a little bit of flair.

Here she is from naked alien baby to human being:

Thanks Jaimie. I'm *still* trying to decide what I want to do with mine.
I guess it doesnt matter, I dont get a whole lot of traffic.

Amanda- that would give me a lot of traffic! Hahaha! If I could do stop motion, I would try. Why? To say that I did it.
:P Want me to mail you a naked dollie?
