A Weird form of Mannequin torture?
Not really ...
I've been commissioned by my LYS (Granny Squares in Newtown) to knit clothes for some wooden artist's mannequins for their window display - and some of the mannequins will be dressed as ladies.
I would like to knit some evening dresses and perhaps a bathing suit so at least one mannequin needed a more feminine shape in the chest area.
So - this is the mannequin that has undergone gender reassignment surgery - some carving to the chest for a more feminine silhouette. But the varnish I used made the wood a bit darker ... SO ...
I've varnished this mannequin all over and we'll say that she has had a spray tan :-) Here she is drying ... all varnish tanned except for her head.
