Surprise!
I finished my Surprise Family! (Jack, Stephen, Sophie, Diana.)
Disclaimer: I did not make the bodies. I just dressed and adorned them They're just standard little wooden manikins. (Where did the spelling "manikin" come from? What happened to "mannequin"? Anyway, these are called 4 1/2" wood "manikins.") (My art supply store was having a huge going-out-of-business sale, and they were only $2.50 each! How could I resist???)
An unfortunately typical scene. (Jack underestimated his own strength.)
A more pleasant scene. Diana sans base, because with it she positively towers over Stephen, especially with her outre' hair.
ETA: As a joke, I made Stephen a temporary wig out of my cat's fur, but when I tried to photograph him wearing it, the cats became very interested. In fact, Nemo ended up carrying it off in his mouth and destroying it. I didn't mind.
For more pictures (including closeups of the fabulous wigs, and Stephen wigless and also with his messy!wig, see my photobucket album. Do it!!!

no subject
I'll admit that I HAVE carried Stephen around in my purse a few times... But only when I was going shopping for something for the poppets and needed him for size. Without his wig, he's the least fragile (and the most impervious to accidents, which are many.)
