It has been laser printed onto heavy card stock and shaded with acrylic washes.

The skelly doll is strung with red thread and can be moved.

Dia de los Muertos and Marionette Challenge!

I am participating in 2 ADO challenges this month, The Marionette and Dia de los Muertos

(Day of the Dead) theme.

I made a polymer clay doll holding a tiny day of the dead

marionette made of paper-clay with tiny flowers made of cold porcelain.

That way I have both themes in one piece:)

Here are the WIP's-

the tiny doll is almost 2 inches tall

The cold porcelain flowers are tiny!

Here are the hands and boots as well as the painted face.

Next comes making a foam, cloth and wire body

Then the making of a dress with bloomers and stockings as well as wigging and making a mask for the girl and a small theatre as well.

Im already 90% done I just need to tie the skelly's strings to the girls fingers and add some details to the whole piece.

I will upload the photos tomorrow.

Have a great night!
