Yarn Dolls

I used to make these a long time ago after watching Hell Girl.
They are based on the dolls from the anime. View the original here.

I've decided to start making these again and selling them at cons.
Mine are made out of yarn instead of straw as yarn is softer then straw and makes for better dolls.

Here are two of my dolls.
The red one is about 4 years old, the purple one I finished yesterday. :)

also if you would like a custom color just ask! They are $4 each.

Here is the page I did in my journal last night about my worries and getting rid of them.

Hand Reference

drawing the basics on my hand helped me out quite a bit with some movement sketches I've been working on.

Here is a picture of some shots of my hand.

Hope you can find some uses for this exorcize too.

First Art Doll

I got some tips from a friend about how to get started with artist dolls.

I made this little critter from clay, fur, and wire.

The clay is oven-bake type.

stuffed with extra brown fur I had!

 

And finished!

 

hoping to make more of these in different styles!
