One of my WIP photos for June & July...
I have made progress on one of the Hittys...just not the walnut one which is like carving concrete!
So far this is where I have got up to with Hitty Number 4
I am a bit stumped on the mouth...I can't figure out how on earth to carve a mouth and lips!
She still needs some 'fine tuning'
But is slowly getting there.
I quite like the side profiles...
It is just the face on one that is still not quite right. I think her head needs to be rounded more. Plus her legs need to be worked on.
Hi Lorraine
ReplyDeleteShe's really coming along very well. I love her firm stance and her hair is wonderful. I thik I can already see the beginnings of her mouth.
I have been too cowardly to have a go so far but would really like to try. Whay knd of knife are you using?
Who is the little boy alongside the blanks packages?

The boy is the one I got through Hitty Girls during the last order...there is currently another chance on the group to order one...I think they close end of this month.
DeleteThe knives I used are on this blog...put a search in for carving or knives/or both and it should come up...if not let me know and I will find it for you.
Getting There! Mouths are super hard, they need a lot of practice, and in my case a good teacher, or three.
ReplyDeleteMouths are hard. I needed a lot of experience and a good teacher or three to make them come out right!
ReplyDeleteooooh!!! More Hittys!! Always exciting to work on new dollies. I'm useless at mouths so I have no advice!!
ReplyDeleteLooking lovely!
