5.0 out of 5 stars
Superb reference for all doll makers,

This review is from: 1/12 Scale Character Figures for the Dolls' House (Paperback)
Even though the titles says "miniature", this is the most useful reference all doll makers should have, especially indispensable for beginners. It is the most complete book on doll-making I have ever come across so far. Every aspect was described and illustrated in depth. The charted reference for head and features are very helpful. I am most delighted with the chapters dealing with eyes, lips, facial expression, make-up, and wigging. What's more, every subject comes with a supply list which is very very helpful.

James Carrington is just the bomb! :-),
By ArtWay (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 1/12 Scale Character Figures for the Dolls' House (Paperback)
The BEST!! This is the best "doll" book that I have ever read. James Carrington is a wonderful teacher and an individual with a wonderful wit. His personality comes through on every page. Even a beginner can make dollhouse scale figures using the instructions in this book... very clear and lots of pictures. But, they'll keep this book for the humor and the commentary on personality long after they're out of the beginner stage. A person who wants to make characters that tell a story should definitely have this book. I hope to see another book from this author, soon... James, you're terrific!
