Naked Boy Among the (Fake) Flowers.

Holy crap it is cold today! And this all happened overnight? It's a good thing Kristen has crocheted so many Homespun afghans over the years. They're nice when the chilly weather sets in.

I painted a doll last night. It was that white-skinned C body boy with the purple/blue mesh hair. His name is Endymion. And no, I didn't name him after the character in Sailor Moon. He has no right to call himself a man!

Then again, neither does this little boy. ^o^

I told you that the only way I could motivate myself to use this head again for a boy was if I did something weird to it! I rooted his hair similar to Kumi's (or Volks' Albert if you will), moving the front hairline back a quarter of an inch and rooting the bangs into the head last. It gave the hair nice lift in the crown and gives him the illusion of having a higher forehead but it was a pain to do!

He doesn't look quite human, so maybe it's okay for me to leave him nudy for a while. I have five more dolls to paint. I was in a hurry!
