I got the round robin doll that has been living at my house for the last few months ready to hit the road. I am SO glad that this group is not anal about timelines. We kind of get to the dolls when we get to them. I have another one heading my way so I knew I had to finish the current one up. I can't show a photo because I don't want to spoil the surprise so what I will show you is the 'disk' that I made to hang on the outside of the journal. Nat .. don't look ... if you want to be surprised ...
Everyone seemed to have used some type of face mold or actually sculpted a face for their disk. I thought I would keep the theme going but the only faces I had looked terrible. I did have this little plaster fairy though that I received as a gift. So I decided to paint her as my 'sculpt'. Yeah. I had to use a freakin' magnifying glass to see what I was doing. I don't know how people do the miniatures. Must have better hand/eye coordination than I do, ha ha. Anyhow - this is my pathetic little attempt at it. It actually looks better in person because a lot of the paint is Lumiere -which you couldn't tell at all with this photo.

This is really lovely. I think you did a great job painting the little fairy - she looks gorgeous!!

I am excited to see what you have done. Disks??? Oh, those journals. Well, if I keep at it, I may actually develop some skills with paper... eventually, LOL!
