Warning if you don't want to look at weird looking curvaceous bodies then look away!!!
I am doing the Personal Challenge doll in Sherry's group. I sewed the body parts and wanted the legs bent so that I could make the doll sit. Until I started to assemble the parts I didn't realise that to make the legs fit in a sitting position I would have had to alter the body a bit or have the legs in standing position. Since I wanted to avoid making a stand for the doll I didn't want straight legs. I joined the parts anyway and you can see how hilarious the doll looks.
So I decided that I would sculpt her body! Having no experience in doing a sculpt I just did what I thought was right and you can see the results down. Everytime I look at it I want to laugh lol! Oh well I think it will have to do. It is becoming a real challenge for me just because I wanted her to sit down lol!
Hey, I think you found a creative way to solve your problem! By the time you costume her, she'll another one of your marveous dolls. How clever you are ;)
ReplyDeleteOh, Shashi - she looks really good. I never even thought of making mine seated - what a great idea.
ReplyDeleteI, too, am hoping that the decoupage will cover a lot of sins.
Well she looks great already! I'll look forward to seeing her finished. I'm sure she'll be terrific!

ReplyDeleteI think you took the challenge to heart and did a fabulous job of fixing her up! She's going to look wonderful when she's finished!
ReplyDeleteDear Shashi, I love what you're doing with this doll! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your thoughtful comments and emails over the past week - and for the package you sent, too. I owe you a long-delayed email of thanks. Big hugs.
She looks great to me already Shashi! I just know that she is going to turn out really beautiful!
