but he turned out to be more of a biker dude. That happens sometimes. Well, actually a lot. I start out making one thing and it turns into something else. I’m not one to have it all planned out before I start.
I made him a vest- red paisley from a Liberty shirt that had belonged to my Dad. I made his head tie out of it too. The vest just wasn’t working so I ended up using the fancy paisley side for the inside. Now there is a surprise inside.
I like his blue hair.
I adore his wonderful beard. Is there a surprise in it? Like a bird’s nest hiding under there?
that beard is just fabulous.
I love this guy and see him as a pirate. He could use an earring.
maybe he just needs an earring and a couple of those plats wrapped in fabric like Jonny Depp/Adam Ant. I love him though
I like his blue beard! I’m guessing that was the original plan?! I think he’d work great as a pirate or a biker! Maybe have an eyepatch accessory and he could switch on alternate days! t.x
Yes, he is a biker dude. I like the expression on his face and the piercing blue eyes. Love him!
So sorry you’ve been getting the mistyped link to the scary site – entirely my fault I expect. Will check it’s remembering me correctly next time! DOH! t.xxx
Oh man, I wish I lived near you so I could go to one of the fairs you sell at and swipe up one of you great man-dolls. I love them so!
I love your dolls, Mimi! This guy really gets to me. What a hoot!
Oh my you have been busy. I have been off my computer for a few weeks and I come back to all this lovely eye candy. I love your little girl dolls and the pin cushion. Such variety of dresses it just inpires me.
Fabulous! I love his beard too. Definitely think there could be something hiding in there!
Wow! I just found your blog while blog jumping and your work is amazing! I love these tattoo dolls and also your house pincushions. Wonderful craftsmanship and really creative!
The beard is awesome. I also like the blue hair. Truly unique
i love the eyes on him!
Your work continues to amaze and inspire me. Thank you so much for sharing a small portion of your process on your blog.
I adore your pirate/biker dude! I made a little guy out of my husband’s old Legos that was a ninja Indian. Hybrid guys are the best.
