I've finally got back to working on this guy. This is my contribution to an Art Bra fundraiser. He's due to the organizers of the show in March so I have to get him done. Let me tell you a bit about him ...
He is my own pattern and I made him hunchbacked and with oversized hands and feet. He has a really strange head but I like it. His eyes are those plastic animal eyes with big hooded eyelids. I love how his feet came out - they are big and only have four toes. Now that I see him in the photos I might have to move his legs down - his thighs are up around his waist, LOL. I am planning on painting his body a couple of shades of grey. I have an idea in my head and we'll see if I can get it out through my hands!
You might not realize it but he is holding a bra. Since this is an art bra fundraiser he has to have one and he told me in no uncertain terms that he wasn't going to wear one! I don't think the gallery will have any other bra-toting trolls! I have plans for the bra too but they are only half baked at this point. Quite obviously his base is too small too - will have to get another one. Or maybe not.
Oh - off the subject for a moment - I noticed with the Flickr photo hosting that when you click on a photo to enlarge it , it doesn't show the biggest photo. If you click on the photo a second time (in the new window) it will enlarge once more. Strange.
He has a name .. the first person who can guess what it is will win a little prize! It's actually more of a title than a name. Leave me a comment with your guess.
Now here's a dude right after my own heart. I do love the feet and the big nose. i can't wait to see him in his finished style.

Posted by: Kai at January 22, 2007 5:18 PMPush-up Boob? 'Liftan' Separate? Okay, okay! I'll be good! Nighty-night!
Posted by: Kai at January 22, 2007 5:22 PMLOL! I haven't a clue what his name would be- Udder Bearer?
I emailed you, but now realize that I didn't follow directions..lol.. my guess was:
"over the shoulder boulder holder"...LOL
Posted by: courtney at January 22, 2007 6:38 PMHi Judy My guess would be titti house Holder. Got that idea from my brother when he was little couldn't say brasire (I think I have it spelled wrong) The long word for bra. so he called them titti holders. I do like your troll whatever name you decide to call him
Posted by: Dianne Sahakian at January 22, 2007 6:50 PMI was thinking about bra police....sort of...
and since he is a troll......
How about Art Bratroll ?
or the Bra Master ......
Posted by: Veronica Philion at January 22, 2007 9:24 PMOh he is absolutely fantastic!! Judi he will win many hearts so perhaps Kai's first name suggestion seems quite apt!
Posted by: shashi at January 23, 2007 12:11 AMHe makes me smile. Even Giggle. How tall is he. That is one tiny bra....unless he is bigger than I thought.
