Customizing toys by Veronica Grimm (Discarded Dolly into Vampirella)


I found this Dolly battered and bruised, lazily floating in the sea at Sandown at the weekend, she was naked with matted acrylic hair covered in oil.
I sliced the hair off and washed body in turps, rebuilt hair and painted on clothing and boots, retouched face then made a skull and bone base from sculpey and real rabbit bones found locally on the cliffs , finished her off with that distinguishing bat tattoo on her chest.
Model stands approx 6 inches tall soft vinyl, sculpey, bones and acrylic paint.
