I am finally done with my doll line! If you don’t know I’ve been working on a faux doll line, similar to bratz or monster high. Here they all are :D It’s based off animals and fashion styles that I think represent them.
Starting with Mariglade since she was the first one created. She’s a jellyfish, beachy themed and outdoorsy. Her name comes from the word ‘marine’ and ‘sunglade’ which is when light reflects on the ocean. She uses forearm crutches. Specifically sidestix discovery crutches with a beach design and a pouch added for storage.
Next is Sylbi! She’s a deer and very shy. I gave her glasses because deer can’t see very far. Her name is also a combo of two different words, sylvian and komorebi. Sylvian meaning “ of, relating to, or characteristic of the woods or forest” and komorebi is a Japanese word that describes sunlight peeking through tree tops.
Then is Priscilla who is a poodle, her design came the easiest to me. Her ears blend in with her hair but they’re there. Priscilla is a bit,, well prissy ^^ i know, I’m the most clever person ever. She comes with a pillow because she mustn’t get her dress dirty!
Last we have Muriel, she’s a rat. Her name comes from the word murine which means rodent. I wanted her to look like she lives in nyc, bc ya know,, rats. I hope it’s obvious her hair is supposed to look like a rat’s tail.
I also wanted to share this doodle of them all together and their height chart/body ref. I find it funny how Mariglade just looks like a person when the others are clearly animals
Ok I need a name for this doll line and my brain is kaput,, anyone have any ideas please please let me know!! I want it to reference the animal aspect of the dolls. And I’d like it if it’s one or two words. I have some ideas but I don’t like them enough to share
Their limbs are supposed to be kinda thicker towards the ends, similar to magic mixies pixlings dolls, I just think that’s so cute. I am so glad to be done with these four heuhue. I’m not gonna stop working on them ofc. It does bother me a bit how much Mariglade looks like lagoona :0( you should’ve seen my face when I realized. But regardless I am done for now and I am happy.
