Inspiration from Eagle Arms Gun Show

            On the weekend, I accompanied my husband to Eagle Arms gun show at Split Rock, as I was making my way through the aisles I was amazed on how insanely packed this show was with 100's of vendors and more attendees. This was my first gun show usually my husband would just go but I promised my teenage son I would get him some survival gear he wanted. I was amazed with all the zombie stuff there was, we are all big fans of "The Walking Dead" show, vendors were carrying tons of zombie target posters and zombie tees.  Inspiration time... I thought why not combine bullet casings with my zombie creations so here it is, hope you like.

Happy Horrific Family

This project is a custom order I just finished. The family were made to fit a dollhouse scale 1/12, the three children were altered & the parents were pure sculpt the dad is a zombie & mom is a crazed woman who loves her family to death.

















By the way to answer the question "Why not just do all your dolls pure sculpt?" I love doing pure sculpt as it involve many additional steps and time, I also love to alter dolls and see how creepy I can turn a beautiful doll into.

Some of the reasons for altering dolls are;
1. Keep cost lower for customers who want to start their collection of creepy dolls.
2. The turnaround time is much quicker with altered dolls than pure sculpt.
3. Some people just like to mix it up like in this custom family.

Reasons for pure sculpt/custom.
Even though you won't get this kind of work overnight it's well worth the wait you are able to design practically every aspect of your doll from doll type, clothing, color, size, accessories, theme etc. prices are higher but you are involved in the process step by step.
