So carrying on playing today I put a smaller head and body on the heart dress and then a bigger dress on the first head and body I made yesterday.

That princess with the hearts is beautiful

Here is my slant on the model. Thanks for putting this up. It is reallt nice to make.

Your princess is adorable Thelma and your art work is as beautiful as always.

Thanks Twisteralla,  I am not sure about the line unde the eye though.  I was just experimenting with the penwork but that line looks a bit funny dont you think?

I think it adds shape to her face. My artwork always makes the princess or fairy that I make look evil, but yours always look so cute.
I also think the princesses look much nicer, more feminine (sorry guys) without balloon noses and with a nose drawn on like Thelma's.

Hey, maybe we should start a discussion on artwork as I think it can really 'make' a model.

Will you show one of your "evil" faces please so I can see what you mean?

I dont actually like the look of the dress made from hearts, it was difficult to get them sitting nicely for the picture.

I added the nose as per Martin's request to try and use his model as a tenplate.
I think it would make a great poatman Pat face with the nose added on

Some great models there..

I will have a go later today just been very busy. :x

I agree with you Twisterella, but on my model I don't think it's just the nose... I might add some tattos to the upper arm too :lol:

I actually think Graham's 'stuck on' nose looks fine... think it is due to the head being bigger and also no artwork on the face.

I must say I am also loving this topic, Graham and Thelma's models are pure quality and actually make me want to post my own version of my own model-of-the month. Which I may well just do.

Thelma what line is that then lol sorry couldn't resist however you can now compare the 2 i like without the line

Nice one Dennis!  Now why didnt I think of that.  I think it looks better without the line.  I dont think it is a princess though.  Just a toll or a good basis for a cheerleader it has been suggested to me.  Might play with that one.  Will post the result later if it works but just using the same model because Im working on instructions at the moment.  head down then.

This is my version of Martin's princess.  She has 3 tiers of hearts in graduating sizes for the skirt, a heart bodice, a heart bow in her hair, and a heart face.  The heart face adds just the hint of a nose but I added just a bit too much air so the princess ended up with a fat neck.

Graham mentioned having trouble keeping the heart skirt from shifting position so I've included a couple of pics showing how I overcame that issue.

Love seeing all these versions of princesses! Ya'll have some wonderful designs!!

Bonnie, The Balloon Lady

Hi all,

Finally got some time to wip up a version of martins princess. I did'nt have enough hearts to do the layers of the dress. So I did the best I could with the amount of hearts i had.

She would make a good marionette doll as well with some ribbon and balloon sticks.
