Here’s my entry for the comp. Thanks for the extension Richie - I almost didn’t need it :) I might do another one now.

Pardon the lack of backstory, but it’s late, I’m tired, and I’m just happy to get the thing finished, so please enjoy the pics.

Cheers,

Allister

(...) Soooo cute! The oversized head is perfect for a joey...

<snip> I have been meaning to comment on this for a while. But what is there to say that others have not already said. Wow. Love the head, feet, body, all of it.
