I don't know why exactly but Walter Potter's work comes to mind...

Just *stunning* work!

Thank you Glitterball! Lovesbabysquirmy haha I've never seen his work before, I enjoy those setups though! Hope the animals died of natural causes :O Those crazy Victorians...

These are fabulous and they take my mind to the film by Studio Ghibli: is the the Cat Returns or something like that?  They are so so beautiful.  I am amazed by your talent.

[Spinky69er]

These are just amazing!!!! Will you be setting up a Facebook page?  Sadly I don't do instagram but would love to follow!!

[xTic_Tac_Toex]

Thank you Tulagirl! <3 I love Studio Ghibli films and was probably almost definitely inspired by The Cat Returns. I really appreciate your kind words

Spinky69er Yes I'll probably be setting up a Facebook page where I'll share my Instagram images - I also have a website which is under construction at the mo but that will have a gallery of my cats with my Etsy shop embedded. So very glad that you like them!

I love and collect unusual art dolls- and I LOVE these! I hope I can possibly buy one when you go into business!

Maybe you can do commissions one day too- I'd love to commission our fur balls.

[xTic_Tac_Toex]

Thank you Galactica! <3 That's so lovely to hear. Commissions will be part of my business - I'd love to make doll portraits of people's pet cats. I'm in the middle of moving house at the moment but am planning on opening my shop in the next couple of months

[WaterRaven]

Fantastic work.

Do you think you'll do animals or fantasy creatures other than cats?

[xTic_Tac_Toex]

Thank you WaterRaven! <3 I'm starting off with cats, but I'd like to do other animals in the future. I'm already thinking about ponies in the same style, surprise surprise

I keep returning to this thread to admire your dolls' craftmanship and adorable factor. Best of luck with selling these! If I was in a better financial position, I'd gladly commission you for one. These are beautiful. <3

[Galactica]

I keep checking back too-  I will admit I don't look at Instagram too often-

but if you ever start collecting an email list to let people know when things go up, please let me know as I'd love you to add me!

These are insanely beautiful, and I'm totally following you on IG now.

[xTic_Tac_Toex]

Thank you so much, Sundown! I'd love to make you a doll some day <3

Galactica, to keep you updated I'm moving house in just over a week so everything is on hold right now haha, but I should be launching my shop in August once we're settled in the new house - that will include taking commissions. If you want to send me your email I can drop you a msg when my shop launches or I can just DM you on here I will give lots of notice on IG before the shop opens too.

Billietallent Thank you so much, I'm glad you're following me and appreciate the kind words! <3

These are ADORABLE! What are they made out of? If you do open an etsy shop, how much would you charge for one?
So cute!
