This commissioned nesting doll set proved to be much more difficult than i thought it would be. The Election 08 set i did was a much smoother process. Because the characters were celebrities and the pieces werent for them, i had a lot more freedom in my interpretations of their likeness. Because this was a present for the woman's sister, i really had to try and make them look accurate and somewhat cute. By the time you wrap anyone's features around the bowling pin shape of the dolls, they always look distorted and kinda weird. Its hard to nail a likeness when you cant change the shape of the face...but its still fun to try!
