This is my submission for the Doll and Kigu Jam, which featured "Any form of visual art that is either about or uses dolls and/or kigurumi." It is a photocomic featuring a custom-made nendoroid (Martyn) and a custom-made crochet and wire doll (Dollmaker), along with various props, clothes, and backgrounds either made by me or scavenged from thrift stores.
You can go to my carrd to find more art and such of Dollmaker, as well as the fanfic I wrote that that kicked off this insanity in the first place, but this reading is ideally not essential to enjoying the comic itself.
This project really took me out of my comfort zone in some really fun ways. I enjoy making Little Items (all the dolls, crochet outfits, and the needlepoint rug were handmade over the past year or two), but I'm still trying to figure out how to present them in a way that tells a story, and I'm extremely new at doing anything that's a comic. It involved me hybridizing a lot of my earlier skills to create what is hopefully an attractive and interesting original creation - which feels fitting, given the pair it's about.
