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!!!

"Let's get Stephen and tie him up in a pretty bow!" *G*
Ummmm... just forget about the weskit idea. He'll have to go topless.

But he IS wearing a waistcoat! It just happens to be the same color as wood! It's like the one in my icon!!!!! *points emphatically*
Actually, I tried this (http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r18/graceewhite/surprise%20family/stephenbrownwaistcoat2.jpg) and showed Gilly, but she and Vilja declared it to be too fancy for him. It's really hard to find Masculine Ribbon. Everything looks girly, sigh.
