New characters



We had a lot of fun making these two! The witch is carrying a tray filled with spooky biscuits made by Helena of Solway Miniatures, her website http://solwayminiatures.webs.com/ is well worth a look!
We are known for our man in the bath having his back washed and we wanted to do another one but very different to the original so here he is, rubber duck and all ;o)
Hope you like them both!
It is nice to put a bit of fun into your sculpts and be daft. A lot of our work is commission based so we are working to a set list of requirements which can be a lot of fun too as sometimes customers come up with ideas you would never have even thought of, whereas making dolls for shows can be a chance to make all those dolls you think about just before you fall asleep and those that you add to the growing wish list and lets face it, it really is a chance to be silly;o)
I would like to say a quick thank you to all the girls on D-A-M-E who have been very supportive these past few weeks in what is a very difficult time ;o). Life is good at throwing up new challenges and upsetting situations but I know me and my family have all the support we need to get through the testing times ahead - so thanks girls you are a great bunch!
