So I decided to add a character to the LHF cast. More accurately, I decided to make a doll of an extant, but currently unseen, LHFer: Junior. Junior is Margie's grandson, between 2 and 3 years old. Absinthe takes care of him sometimes when his parents, Margie's daughter Laurie and Laurie's boyfriend Johnny, are at work.
Anyway, I had a spare Kelly lying around from Kinjou, who gave me one so that I could try making the default Mattel idiot grin into something with more character. Kellys and Tommys actually have cute headsculpts, but their use among action figures is very limited because of their minimal articulation. Here you can see the swivel head and single axes of rotation at the shoulders and hips. Ugh. ( Read on to find how I improvised better articulation. )
