Preamble: Watchmen is a graphic novel by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. It is brilliant; if you haven't read it then you totally should. I will keep from saying any more about it because, srsly, you need to read it, but I will say that it is... quite dark. And edgy. :D

Oh. My. God. There really are no words. You are a genius! You MADE these? Crikey moses. Are you going to make some to sell? I would if I were half so talented! Oh. My. God. Again.

I'm putting in a bid for Night Owl II, he is hella cute. :O

Aww, thank you! These were so much fun to do. (Although I've sort of ground to a halt trying to do Doctor Manhattan because he's so boring!)

I wasn't planning on selling them (I find the fun goes out of making stuff as soon as you have to do it, you know?) but I might be persuaded to make more in the future for the right person. ;-)

I completely know what you mean. I didn't paint for ages because I did a commission for someone and I hated painting it. You are so right, it completely took the fun out of it. I was up against a Christmas deadline as the guy wanted to give it his Dad as a gift. Ugh, never again!

Oooh, that wink looks promising :O. If you ever did decide to make another I would love to swap you for a painting of an iconic celebrity of your own choosing :D if you wanted? Like these ones I've done? Or alternatively a handsome cash sum ;). Or we'll never mention it again! But if your fingers slip and you accidentally make more toys let me know ;) x

I think I might be able to swing that! Srsly that would be amazing. Can I let you know when I next find myself armed with needle and thread? x

I'm so impressed by anyone who can make things out of felt without grubby bits (of the wrong sort) and lots of holes. So wow, basically. These are awesome beyond words.

So you could actually make Harry Potter plushies? 0_o If you wanted to, I mean.

Thank you! ♥ They were so much fun to make.

I reckon I might be able to do HP ones, in theory. Although they would probably have to be wearing robes as I have no idea how I'd make school clothes from felt. :D

what type of cloth do use to make your dolls??

[fera_festiva]

I use felt mainly, but I sometimes use ribbon, knitted yarn and so on for details.
