Aww, Bonden and Killick! Well, I think I bought all the little manikins they had in the store!

I think I remember they had "made in china" stickers. But Stephen is by a different maker (hence he's shorter and different wood). But anyway, when I look them up online in art supply catalogs etc., they're mostly all called "manikins!"

I did think of painting a vest, but it's hard to paint their round bellies, because they bend and move over them and scrape the paint off. But I bought some wood stain, so maybe I'll use that. Did you see my photobucket pics? Stephen's chest got kind of dirty with the handling, but I kind of like the dirty look for him. :D

(Gilly had a sneak preview, bwaha!)
