Hi! I'm new to posting but love reading and exploring the site. I'm a dollmaker and have been working on some new tiki dolls. Hope you like my first one.

Looks like it's from Beetlejuice.

I love Beetlejuice! I've got three more that are at the half-way stage that I am liking even better. For now I'll post two other dolls that are in the same family, semi-tiki. By the way, I sculpt the heads, hands and feet individually out of paperclay, paint them with acylics, and then sew the bodies and assemble.

Looks good but I think you should make the feet a little more detailed and maybe tune it more towards the heads. For me, the legs are a little too long but I think you came a far ways in the three photos to making the heads look Tiki Central ready.

Very creative! The tiny hands are a great detail.

Thanks to everyone who has posted encouraging coments, I really appreciate them!!

I'd like to announce that I will be having a solo show starting on October 1st in Downtown Fullerton at Otto. I will be selling one-of-a-kind art dolls including the previously posted examples as well as some funky/wierd beings that I have conjured up. You can check my blog for all of the details:
