The Minoan Snake Priestess

Post by lauragill » Tue December 6th, 2011, 9:10 pm

I finally finished crafting this 1-inch scale doll: The Minoan Snake Priestess. As with the Mycenaean Princess, I did not do her hair or sculpt the doll, but I did costume her.

Each of those fringes was hand-applied; each row took about 2-3 hours to complete. Yes, she is holding a coiled snake around her left hand, and the background is the Throne Room fresco from Knossos.
