It was another super Wednesday Morning but Joan and Leann met up with me at my house (instead of us going to Joan's) because I had to wait to hear from my furnace guy. It has been a few weeks since we last got together for a Wednesday Morning and it was really really good to see them!
I worked on the new guy (I'm trying to make a second doll for PCCA's Holly Dolly Fundraiser) but I am not so sure I like him as-is yet.
I attached his fingers (that I made last night while watching television) and I tacked his body fabric on and then tacked on his arms and legs. I really love his arms/fingers and I like his legs (so far) very much. I can't quite put my finger on what it is I am not happy with.
I like the checkered material. I love his eyes. Maybe it is the shape of his body. Maybe it is his face overall. Maybe it is that I (for me) need to have a distinctly separate (or more defined) head/body. I love dolls by other artists who have a one-piece head/body but maybe it is not my style. Maybe this guy needs a head. Maybe his body is too solid (for me) vs my usually more squishy guys. I am feeling a little bit that he looks (right now) like a checkered potato with arms and legs.
I will figure it out...but here are the photos from this morning and this afternoon.
