Introducing, Brushie!

   I'd like to introduce Brushie. He is an adventurous puppy who is always getting into trouble, but is very loyal to his friends. He is a scrappy fellow, and generally leaps before he looks, but he means well.

Brushie is not one particular breed of dog, but is designed to look very much like a border terrier and a schnauzer, so he may well be a mix of these breeds.

   I designed Brushie as the companion to a ship's captain. He might end up being a little pirate doggy.
In the story I wrote, he sacrificed himself for his captain, and he was loyal to the end. But this is a puppy version of that little character.

   The doll itself will be jointed at the neck, shoulders and hips and will have removable eyes and a magnetic tail. He will be around 5 inches tall.

Here are the sketches that I sent to the sculptor:

The front and side

The back


That's it for now! Hopefully you like him, and will join me in following his progress!

Basically a Test Post

Hello! My name is Kaitlyn, and I am working with a sculptor to turn my design into a ball-jointed doll.
I plan to journal the process here, so that people can see things as they progress, and maybe they will be interested in the little guy when he/she is finished.
