My most recent miniature doll - though this one isn't quite 1:12th scale; I made her a bit taller (a couple of cm), just to be able to have more fun with the details :) I do think I'll make future portrait dolls 1:12th scale though.
This collage is an example of what I'm looking at when sculpting these dolls. When making the animated characters I usually don't have more than 5-6 pictures, but for an 'actual person' there are going to be more details, and so you really want to be able to see the face from all angles.
I had a hard time finding a proper picture of Maleficent from the front, which is why I have 2 pictures of 'Angelina' on the right.
Wow, wow, wow,Tanja, every time you post something new I'm lost for words. Your Maleficent figure is Magnificent, when I think you can't outdo yourself, you create something wonderful again. Is there anything you can't do?

You have captured Miss Jolies likeness really good! All your likenesses are well done, anatomy is on the point and the details captured perfectly. Maybe you should do some GAME OF THRONES one offs, like the Mother of Dragons or Jon Snow. Or maybe an elder Terminator (whats more my business, but hell, you are "too good to be wasted on beautifull characters, harhar!"). Keep up the good work and my personal wish is, that you would tackle some rotten food. Somehow and sometime! Cheers, Frank
ReplyDeleteLooks fabulous! Great cheeks for the character and super job on the shape of that headpiece she wears.
ReplyDeleteWOW, Tanja, this doll is an awesome piece of art! She IS 'Angelina", amazing work!
ReplyDeleteI fully agree with all the other bloggers, you have such talented (as we say in The Netherlands: golden) hands :D!
I've been away for quite a while, because of the preparations for my first miniature show ever. But I hope to be more often in the blog world again, for seeing and admiring for example your awesome pieces of art :)!
Wishing you a nice Sunday and week ahead. Kind regards, Ilona
Thank you so much! - I don't know if you've been to the show yet, but in case you haven't I wish you the best of luck and hope you have fun!! it's always great seeing people's reactions live! :D
DeleteYes, Tanja, I've already been to the show a week ago, it was my first time ever ;)! And it was indeed soooo much fun, I really loved to talk with other bloggers and miniaturists about their work too :D! I even had a first, very special guest/customer, you can see it on my blogpost of 2nd November......if you wish, of course ;)!
DeleteThanks for answering, so kind of you! Now I have to see your newest blog post :D!
Kind regards, Ilona
