Morgana
Little Gawain isn't alone anymore. Morgana has arrived!
Morgana is a Dollzone Aurora; I have bought her completely blank and painted her face myself. More pictures below... I need to make clothes for her (at my leisure), which is going to be a leeettle challenging because I haven't got any patterns :P.
This is her, unpainted:
She came with random acrylic eyes; I bought her some blue glass ones. Actually her eyes are the same as Little Gawain's, and Adult Gawain is wearing the ones that I originally intended for Morgana. They just happen to fit better...
At 65 cm, she is pretty tall for a female doll. Which is a little bit awkward because Morgana is quite petite - but since the only other adult doll you will ever see with her is Sir "Shorty" Gawain, that is hardly a problem :).
Here she is next to little Gawain - I'm quite happy with the proportion.
Here she has a face. While she's waiting for me to make clothes for her, she is modelling some loose fabric and a shoelace :p. I hope to make a simple chitoon-style dress for her soon so she doesn't have to train all that fabric behind her anymore. Her nun's habit will take more time because I want it fitted and I need (to make) a pattern for that. I'll also need to figure out how to do the veil, and it seems difficult to find information on exactly how those things were worn.
I have one book that is perfect for her in terms of scale. I hope it can pass for a Bible, but actually it's the Poems of Robert Burns XD. When I bought it, I didn't think it would one day be doll reading material...
Aunt and nephew are sitting peacefully in my room at this moment...
I haven't painted little Gawain's face myself; he was sold like that, with freckles and everything. One day, I'll probably wipe off the company face-up and do it myself, but - not yet. I'm a little bit nervous about painting him because he's so small... Trust me, it's fiddly enough to paint a large doll and glue in the eyelashes :).

I'm probably a bit weird, but it makes me happy to see them.
