I never liked how the hand looked... so clunky and indelicate compared to the rest of her. So I swapped
it out for a real arm/hand combo and added a bracelet, all of which required a fair bit of work including
a good amount of brushwork :) The arm looks too long, but it mimics the original :unsure: I can live with it :D

Just read a book called The Joy of Gardening

yea..gardening

even atheists can do it, and they might be better off doing gardening rather than arguing about war and stuff. Because I have not ever read a book called 'The Joy of War'.

That's a much better arm you added, more elegant. Now that you point it out, the old arm is unbefitting of the rest of the woman... it's much more comic-booky, like the arm you'd see in a Dagwood panel.

Thank you. I used the same arm in another figure I constructed :D


Psalm 8:1-4
I had thought it was this one but looked at the wrong arm/hand combo the first time :giggle:
I had to add both because the dress was a stand-alone item ;)

"Constructed" Magenta? These tender young creatures you put in your illustrations are... constructed?? You sound like a mad scientist building an army of fembots!!

If so, I'll be keeping my eye on you and your operation.

You funny. Yes, they are constructed, piece by piece, which is why I call them collages. Each panel is constructed of multiple pieces including frames, borders, backgrounds, special effects, floral elements, trees, and an assortment of other many other "found"/searched out items which I refer to as elements, such as butterflies, birds, doves, dragonflies, deer, equines, grapes, vines, stars, clouds, etc etc. The elements often carry some significance in terms of Christian symbology. The figure may start as just a dress, to which I add a torso, and arms, and a face/head, to which I add hair and features (eyes and mouth), and sometimes wings and a halo and/or multiple emanating light effects. I may change the dress dramatically also; I make alterations to every element as it is added. I changed this one for you:


Hebrews 12:1-3

Oh now you didn't have to do that. Maybe you're a fembot mastermind, but you're a nice one.

Psalm 63:1
I designed this one last might in record time :) It seems best spare, having very few
items added, especially compared to some of my others, which often have 40+ individual
pieces, not to mention all the things tried that did not suit, which can number the same.

From Isaiah 66:1-2
I designed this one today :) @Sculpt you may like the very pastel tones...

A bit different from this one I designed a couple of days ago:


1 Corinthians 11:19
That one may need more work :unsure:

I keep meaning to mention that the "bobble headed girl" is called a Chibi :D

There is a chibi in my auto siggy lol. Chibis were introduced to the West through
Japanese anime, probably from the name of Sailor Chibimoon, in Sailor Moon :)

@Magenta, how’d you imagine CC-members lookin’ like? Just from what we’re putting down in writing here? A very good friend of mine from here said whenever she got to see what I looked like she was just like: Golly, you look exactly how I was thinking.😎😁

God is the source of my joy. As far as entertainment goes depends on the time of year it is. Atm here in Ohio getting ready to do gardening, fishing,hiking, flea markets, road trips, etc.

I like Halloween, Friday the 13th, Scream, etc....basically any so-called "slasher movie" where someone in a mask/costume is going around offing people one by one. 😈
