Faith, Think Pink Fae

This is my entry into the Think Pink IV contest's Artisan Crafts category.

I'd like to introduce to you Faith, a Think Pink Awareness Fae

Faith was originally a Fiesta Tropical Lea. She's had all of her original factory paint removed, and then carefully hand painted with artist quality paints, giving her light blue eyes, natural shading, and delicate pink tattoos on her face & both legs.

Her hair has been washed, then crimped & heat set to retain it's style.

Faith's elf ears were hand sculpted, and painted to match her skin tone. Her delicate wings are secured firmly to the doll, and are slightly poseable.

Faith's close fitting costume was created out of very very VERY thin sheep suede that was hand painted pink. Then I spent hours handstitching it together with baseball stitching, and all the edges with a blanket stitch.

I'll have more pictures of her on my site soon
