I rarely post pictures of my dolls anymore because I know 99.9% of you really don't care for/about them, though I may bother you with them some more as their medieval look starts coming together...

We haven't reached that stage yet (far from it!), but occasionally I experience the perverse need to show you the depth of my doll-depravity. Read: reveal the size my crew has taken on in as little as ... two years and two months.

The photo isn't even complete. A few weeks after it was taken, another doll arrived and I placed an order for yet another (tiny) one. That said, I'm getting close to the limit of what I can handle :p. There is such a thing as doll maintenance too - you're never really done with the critters.

But these are my Little People:
Back row: Gawain, Florie, Morgana, Ragnell and, er, Gawain.
Middle row: Florens, Theneva, Little Morgana, Gingalain (will become Owain), Lovell and Little Gawain ("Gwalchmei").
Front row: Kundry, Lucifer the cat, Ladybird and Mokona (whom I received as a gift with Lucifer - he plays no part in Gawain's story, but as a CLAMP fan I'm happy he's here :D).

For your reference: Majestic Morgana is the tallest of all the dolls (on flat feet - Kundry is about as tall in heels) and measures 66 cm. Lucifer is the smallest and measures 12 cm, Ladybird is the second smallest at 16 cm.

Wow, I hadn't thought the collection was already so grown! You certainly have a nice family there, shown in a great family picture. *g*

Thank you!

Well, consider this photo a warning... ;) Once you get started with these dolls, it can be very hard not to get more, and more, and more. All the dolls in this photo are on different bodies. I'm telling you this because sometimes I'll buy a doll just because it's differently made from my others... I love these dolls as dolls, not only because of the characters they represent. That is the danger for me - seeing a type of doll that I don't own yet, grow curious about it, and then go, "ooooooh, I want that one too!" And I'll say, "well, okay, I wasn't going to make a doll version of Theneva, but look, this doll I have loved from the first is now for sale, second-hand, and in Europe too! How can I resist? She'd make a wonderful Theneva too!" And then of course I give in :P.

Thanks, I'll keep it in mind. There is a certain danger, as there are several characters I could imagine having as dolls... but my budget would keep me cautious anyway, which might indeed be helpful then! *g*

What a great collection! My Mum collected tiny ones and I used to try and buy her one if I went out anywhere.

As you can see, I feel drawn more to the large dolls, but the tinies are so cute that it is very tempting to get tiny versions of everyone too :P. I'm trying hard to resist though XD.

Thank you!

How interesting! I am partial to the Gawains.

Thank you! I am so partial to the Gawains myself that I have several of them :p.

I'm very fond of each of the dolls, but since Little Gawain was my first, he is special.

Thank you very much! They are a lot of fun to work on. For me it feels very similar to toying with my characters on paper, only this is in three dimensions :).

I loved how your big Gawain doll turned out. Oh, hey, and thanks for the rec of the Scary Godmother dolls--I hope they get made!

I hope so too! I have been a Scary Godmother fan for years; the doll is just too much fun to pass up... And Jill Thompson's enthusiasm is catching - hopefully it catches enough people.

Thanks for liking my big Gawain! When I started out, I didn't think I was ever going to get a big Gawain doll because I didn't expect to find a head that pleased me enough. But then I did :p. And it is in every way a wonderful head. It is the most amazing quality resin I have ever seen, and the sculpt subtly changes expression depending on the angle from which you look at it. I love it to bits! XD

Aheh.
