OP:
One of my favorite sci-fi/fantasy authors (Peter V Brett, the Demon Cycle books) has a new novel coming out soon. To celebrate, he put on a contest for advanced read copies. The guidelines were very loose, just a dramatic re-creation of any scene in his books. I decided to crochet my scene. I’ve wanted to make a crochet version of this rock demon for years, but always put it off. The contest was the stimulus I needed!
Some details: the demon’s arm gets cut off in the story so of course I made it removable, with magnets! His tail and the boy’s arms & legs are wired so they can be posed.
I tagged the author in my post on my Facebook page and he liked my photos and commented on the post, saying it was amazing! I was overjoyed! Even if I don’t win a prize, I am so jazzed that he liked my project
Not only are your dolls made incredibly well, you made a fantastically dramatic scene and had a super clever design. I’m so glad the author commented. It’s nice when someone you love so much appreciates your art.
Wow, this is so wonderful! It’s clear that a whole lot of work went into this, and there are so many great details! No wonder the author said they’re amazing - they are!
The detachable arms with magnets is amazing! Your crochet tension is so tight! Gray job! I bet it was thrilling to have the author acknowledge your work! And the photography is so moody and chilling! \m/
