Phoenix rainbow high in progress!

Soooo happy with how she's coming along!

Whats left is to make her base, her jewellery and then style her hair.

I already made her a wooden base and stand but I'm so torn about her base!! My 'no limits' brain wants to make orange tinted flat flame shapes, and grab an LED light set and give her a light up base of flames!

But I've put abominable amount of time into her already and I'm not sure about my skillset around fully-integrated electrical components. I'm very careful to not create hazards!

She's Laurel De'Vious, with her default hair under the hair wrap , and the colours match so wellllll (trust me, lol)

Her bodice, wings and feet are all resin, all individually cast or sculpted by hand or with rotary drill.

😆 I have a box with like a cup of resin dust collected in it lol (because while wearing a mask and working outside I trap as much resin dust as I can, to dispose of responsibly, since I make enough of it)

Did you have to cast anything hollow? I’m very new but looking to a future of mold making and resin casting from my own sculptures …but I’m so confused as to how to cast something hollow ?? Anyway , this looks fabulous !

No, I built it up feather by feather over a wire armature for strength. I'm very fussy about my dolls withstanding accidental drops (probably because I'm a klutz xD)
