Vintage Mickey

[phosfate]

Got a new batch of stuffy pictures developed over the weekend. I don't know what's up with the scans looking like they came out of the Sunday World-Herald. This time it's Kodak's fault, not mine. Anyway...

Here's Mickey Mouse from the vintage pattern off eBay. I weened out and didn't give him all the embroidered eyebags and wrinkles. I can always go back and add them later, should I feel the need. He's all wool felt, except for the two buttons, which are made of...button. He has a wire* armature inside and cardboard insoles, so he can stand alone. He is large enough to frighten a small child.


*"Wire" in this case being "a package of pipe cleaners I wanted to use up and braided into one big-ass wire."

He's very beautiful. He's got a lovely face - he's a mouse with a soul, you can see that! I like his face the way you left it - he has tremendously kind eyes!!
