Post Gentle River is off to Japan!
Hope no one minds me posting here.

"Gentle River" by team Sibley makes it to the top 9 for the CWC!
Out of an international team of four people, I was responsible for makeup and eyes.

She's Number 9! Yipeeeeeeeee!

Major thanks dudes.


I guess the winning team gets to design a doll for Takara, and the 3 runners up team members get a Miss aniversary which is big $ worth of doll.

Been one busy toy year! :shock:

DOPE!

That's awesome -- major congrats on getting to the finals. What do you win if you're the top spot? Life-size Blythe?

Which just gave me the creeps on a major scale....

Great job Paul!

I hope your team wins and you guys get the opportunity to put out your design for Takara. It would be interesting to hear about the process from start to finish.

The only thing is those dolls give me the willies! It's the big heads and the eyes! :shock:

Thanks again all! What a great bunch!


The judging is in late June. Wish I could go to Japan to put on some pall bearer's gloves and strut her around the room!

(NOT kidding! That's how they do it!)

She will be auctioned off for charity!

I'm a happy bird!

she will probably end up in a book at the very least!! She does stand out. The colors are so good and the photo is definitely the stand out in the bunch. i'm not saying this because its you: She is my favorite of the entries.
