Finally got to making a new story- find it top of Photostories Page 4, It's a fun collaberation between Manda at .havillands.co.uk/ Havillands World of Fun and a storyline that's ongoing between my model horse endeavors and stable - Okarnill - and hers. It's always fun to use characters that have their own lives in their own niches on the interwebz! Gareth and Khi have met Tye before..... (Photstories page 3) and Mysti (the bigger barbie) has also visited Manda's 1/6 tribe, of which she has many!
I think this is my favourite shot from the whole story, I don't know why, I just love the little apron - I knew it in it's previous incarnation as a sainsburys bag! One of those 'I need something for her to wear to protect her clothing, oh wait! this will do' and it just worked. The staining is literal clay from our literal yard which is currently literally under water because I swear it hasn't stopped raining in six weeks. The real horses are growing gills!
There's also another neat thing featured, the clay that Tye's using to make her mug is all a really light foam clay. I forget the brand, it's the first time either of us have tried it and both Manda and I were impressed with it. It' dries in two hours for items Tye sized, but can take up to 48, the end product is foamy but keeps it's shape well. It's incredibly light and takes paint (the paint on her half painted mug is watercolour pen) so I reckon I'll have more projects using that!
anyway that's a little 'behind the scenes' chat. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas/Yule/Holidays, and a wonderful New Year's Evening, and lets have a wonderfully dolly 2024!
