Dilys Extra

Jan 24, 2018

Hang on, stitching together your page...

Next page: Hollow Hell

Another extra today while I continue to catch up: a somewhat early model of Dilys. It took me a number of tries to work out the eyes (actually, I'm still tweaking the eyes even today), and this one has felt eyes with sewn (rather than crocheted) irises. Looking at it now, I think he actually looks pretty good, if a bit angry (but that could just be the moody lighting). Still, I'm happier with the look of the eyes in the current model (crocheted whites and irises), so I'm glad I made the change.

Work is going well, so look for the story to resume Mondays and Wednesdays starting next week.

RIP Ursula K. Le Guin. The Earthsea trilogy and The Word for World is Forest were early influences on me as well as her more recent essays and interviews. Her strong and outspoken opinions will be missed!
