I love her braids. I am less pleased with the title of this set. I am running out of things to call these darn sets. So, I just sort of pick words out of the air. I’m not sure that they are that informative for people, but what the heck? It’s a paper doll.
I have been working on creating a new pallet of skin tones based on photographs of supermodels/actresses of various elasticities. It is slow going. I tend to think of skintones in terms of color- light brown, dark brown, brown with a little red in it, brown with grey undertones, peach with yellow undertones, peach with red undertones… I rarely think in terms of ethnicity, so I find myself skipping around looking for various “colors” to adopt. It’s been educational and I like the colors I am getting out of it.
Also, I know I owe a Puck paper doll to Kat the winner of my drawing. Fear not, Kat, it is nearly done and will be up this coming Sunday. I have not forgotten, I just didn’t get it quite finished last week.
“Biblophelia Princess” or “Princess of the Library” (which, by the way, would be an AWESOME place to be princess of) for alternate titles.
And if you REALLY run out of titles just number them: Awesome Princess #746, etc. =)
I love this one’s deep complexion. I like your way of choosing colors and even more than that, I appreciate your willingness to share a variety of paper dolls that represent these colors. Thank you!

“Biblophelia Princess” would be a great name for a paper doll set, Sara.
You’re welcome, Debbie. I try very hard to balance the need for clothing (mostly shoes) to be mix and match with the desire for as many skin tones as possible. This is a new color for Marisole actually- slightly different than my previous attempts at the same basic skin tone and based on the coloring of the supermodel Alek, from Sudan. Wow, that’s probably more then you wanted to know.
Anyway, I’m so glad you like the paper doll.
