Funny looking babies

I am getting itchy to experiment with some new clay for modifications, I don’t want to ruin my really awesome sculpts. I got a little hoardy pile I have had for three years I have been saving for a rainy day and have been painting them because it feels silly to just let them sit there. I just painted my Tony Legler and Romy. I made them into circus babies, couldn’t help myself.

I am looking for some funny looking babies in your stash that you just can’t bring yourself to paint. Maybe they are just a little Uggy, a strange size, have a defect or two, were stripped badly…

Sell them to me (at a reasonable price please, not looking for SOLE’s).

I need three. I am not too concerned about condition. I kinda prefer open eyes. Size does not matter.

NON-SMOKING home only. (that is just nasty no one appreciates that level of smelly and if you are a smoker get a patch, save your lungs, save your families lungs, and use that money to buy pretty babies, imagine how many sculpts you can buy instead, you can do it!!!)

I went to the dreaded Ebay and Dayummm lots of fake sculpts there for not a whole lot. I just kept imagining newbies buying them up without understanding. Grrrrrr…

Hey Newbies don’t buy too good to be true sculpts on Ebay, they are most likely counterfeits. When you do that you take money from hard working artists who spend hours and invest a lot to get their sculpts to market. Without them we don’t have quality babies to paint. You are also supporting theft. Funny how we are waiting forever for new sculpts because of Covid but these fakes are showing up by the thousands, gives me a sphincter cramp for sure.

Happy to pay a little more for the real thing, even if its funny looking, has a lumpy head.

Hope this post didn’t come of grumpy…This sculpt stealing really makes me crazy.

I don’t have any uggos to sell, but I’m dying to see what you come up with! Curious to know what you’ve been using to modify your littles with? It seems to be working very well! Your Pinocchio is precious as all your circus babies are :heart:

I don’t believe that Sam has a COA.

That makes me feel better. :laughing: I couldn’t find anything and couldn’t remember since I bought him last year.

I have a Sofia by Ping Lau. She’s not funny looking (at least to me :joy:). She’s super cute! I would love to see you do something amazing with her! I have her for sale for $135, Plus Shipping. She comes with her body too. If your not interested, thats ok! But I thought I would throw it out there.

Please share your Pinocchio! I’m not on IG but I wanna seeeeee!

Her bowl and spoon will have sawdust in them, right now it’s wood chips and butterfly wings.

The lace on her shirt is from France, its more than 100 years old. I made her clothes and hat.

The beetle is real dead but real.

I was challenged to marry the art I use to make with the art form I am making now.

The show it titled “what scares you”
