thanate | "O wild thing out of the wild wood, why have you come here?" (Reply)

Finished sanding seams. I started at 10 am, and have been working on it more than half the time since then. My hands are probably going to hate me tomorrow, since I think I've overused the tensing & pressing down muscles in the middle of the right hand and the gripping thumb vs other fingers of the left. Now she needs to dry so I can dig out the gluegun and attempt to suede her arms so they'll stay where I put them a little better, attach the magnets for her horns, and then I can put her back together. Work, work, work... (but I'm actually quite proud of myself for doing all this... I hate seamlines on dolls, but this is the first one I've actually managed to sand. Many of her seams are gone entirely. Some of the worse ones are down to the point where I can't feel them, and they only show up from some angles. Perhaps with this inspiring example I might one day get around to doing Lady and Waif as well...)

Also, I ordered her albino fawn eyes, which I hope will fit in her eye sockets without having to drill them out further, and restrained myself from getting a back-up crow head because I could. Although I did get some more wild creature eyes, and some carousel horse ones, because they're terribly cool. I... can't imagine I won't be able to figure out something to do with them...
