She's finally finished! Custom doll of Galoo from Wendy Lian Martin's Castle Swimmer (on webtoons). I started making her immediately after Galoo's first appearance in the comic because I was so enamored with merseaslug. I love nudibranches....
This was literally my only reference for a long time lmaooo (me trying to figure out how many legs she has...)
This Galoo is the top half of a Cave Club doll (I think she was Roaralai?) and the bottom half is wire, fabric from the scrap drawer, and some faux fur I've had since I was a teenager. (It's not the best, but true to the themes of ocean preservation in Castle Swimmer, I wanted to reduce reuse recycle for this project!!) The body was the first thing I finished two years ago, so the reveal of her little paw pads were a last minute and delightful addition.
