I've just posted a photo album of awesomeness over at hasoferet.com. It's got captions and so on, which don't cross-post very well. Please clicky over and go see! It is full of utter cuteness like this:
Go see!
LOVE! I would say you might have missed your calling, but I don't think that's actually true :-) but I bet you could make money doing this ALSO, if you did not already have a day job that required infinite fiddly close-up handwork and attention to detail...
I used to have a much-beloved dollhouse (along the lines of this one), and actually had whole catalogs of miniature items very much like yours which I would pore over obsessively, and the great treat was to go to the "dollhouse store" the next town over. But somehow I never got into the notion of MAKING my own doodads (I think I had absorbed the notion that if I made things myself they would never look "right" or "as good"). Looking at this makes me wish I had. Someday, maybe.
Well, the ones I make don't look "as good," which is why I couldn't make money doing it (certainly not once you realise that timewise a Fimo modeller can't compete with cast resin). The trick is to realise that the home-made ones look good enough, or even pretty damn good, and to enjoy them for that.
