So, one of the perks of where I work is that I can borrow an SLR camera sometimes. Not that I have any idea how to use an SLR camera, but I am trying to experiment with decent blog photos, so I borrowed one last weekend and decided to photograph my sketchbook.
All things considered, I think the photos came out fairly well. So, here’s a little peek at what is currently in the sketchbook. I would say these were “coming up soon”, but let us all be realistic. I take forever to get things from “idea” to actually paper doll. It is probably best that I promise nothing.
The Poppets are getting some historical outfits here with a dress and coat from the 1940s and a swimming outfit and sailor suit from the 1890s. I really like historical children’s clothing.
So, this started as a faun set and then I was like… I need more then just faun legs, so I added some mermaid tails, because that made sense. Okay, maybe not, but I am excited at the outcome. Of course, who knows when this one will be ready either.
Marcus as a knight has been at the top of my “To Do” list for a while. I also feel like Marcus maybe needs some male friends to hang out with, so I am thinking about that too lately.

These are all way cool, but the mermaid tails are really turning me on! I want to print 2, color one, then give them to my niece!
I voted for the mermaids and fawns, but can I vote for Knight Marcus, too?
FAUNS AND MERMAIDS!!! My life is complete now. Ok, I’m exaggerating a bit. But still! Yaaaaaaay!!! XD
When you do mythical creatures, could you maybe do a selkie? I don’t see them very much, but they’re probably my favorite.
The challenge of a selkie is that it would mean drawing a seal. And animals aren’t exactly the easiest things for me to draw.
A faun! That takes me back, it’s been a long time since you’ve drawn one of those I think. Pax, was it?
