Surprise!

[nid_dabeille]

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???)

Surprise!!!

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!!!

Soon, we will take over your entire language! Muaha!

*confused* I thought the people with the secret world domination plan were the Australians! I had a discussion on that with ozfille some time ago. I think it ended with her being led away by the friendly men in the white coats.

Could have been a one-woman-world-domination plan. The memory is fuzzy. The Australian gouvernment probably gave me some memory-fuzzying drugs to cover everything up!

It's called alcohol, I think.

Alcohol? But I have puncture wou- oh, it's just a mosquito bite.
...Okay, maybe it could have been a Strawberry Daiquiri.
