Description This is sort of a reverse on the old greek myth of Pygmalion. In the original tale, Pygmalion was a king or a sculptor of Cyprus, who made an ivory statue of a woman, then fell in love with it. In answer to his prayers, Aphrodite breathed life into it, so it became a real woman, and then his wife and mother to his son.

So, these series of pictures is a story that is almost the anti of the original tale, in which the dollmaker takes living women, and turns them into dolls, to add to his sick little collection.

Characters:
Dollmaker - ME
Main victim -
Red haired doll -
Purple haired doll -
Blue haired doll -
Blonde haired doll -

and of course, the lovely photographer, and aid to my sick idea

Great dynamic in this one! I would have been stoked if there was a hint of motion blur, especially in the bottom left.

I love this. I actually just posted my own take on living dolls yesterday. You had a far larger cast of characters to work with than I did though. Check them out though see what you think.

That's just incredible! It really evokes those old-timey, tie-a-dame-to-the-railroad-tracks kind of villains. Beautiful.
