I can only hope for you and myself that there will be a lot more to see of Ardanwen than the photo shoot that you are about to see. Fact is that Ardanwen is no longer with me. I had the pleasure of creating her, but as for every ScoonimDoll I have made (except for the prototypes and of course Stellai) they all have been made on commission. So Ardanwen left for her new home shortly after the photo shoot. However there are some more photos I have of her due to Stellai wanting to show her the zoo and I agreeing. But even though we had a lot of fun, the photos I took there are not what I would call "CoverDoll quality". However I may post them in time in the section for Miniature Adult Dolls on the Dollforum.

The photo shoot of Ardanwen was made last February. Even though the weather was pleasant I still felt the need to wear my winter jacket. But Ardanwen was not bothered at all by the cold, so I was able to take some nice shots which would make you think that summer had already arrived.

The creation of Ardanwen was inspired by the comic heroin Aria, which resulted in an interesting mixture of a gorgeous looking adventurous, sexy, wild but also fashionably elegant ScoonimDoll. But during the photo shoot ( and our visit to the zoo) she also portrayed herself in the shots, to be very cheerful and a natural practical joker. This last part is special. I have experienced that all of my ScoonimDolls really have characters of their own. During the creation I focus on the demands of the client, but this special part of their characters I don’t create, it’s already there. Usually it is the presentation photo shoot that reveals it. But I know from Stellai that the forming of character continues and develops...

Ardanwen is at this moment out of my hands. So now we wait. Will Ardanwen be able to tempt the mystery man to post new photo shoots of her? I have been requested by her owner not to reveal his name. But he is no stranger. So I can only hope for you and myself that there will be a lot more to see of Ardanwen.

Incredible work Koen.

Thank you all for your kind comments.

As for seeing more of Ardanwen, this mainly depends on her owner. I do have a small unplublished photo series of Stellai and Ardanwen in the Zoo, but I still need to publish the photo shoots that  I did of Stellai with Calernae and another one of Stellai with Suleiya. So it will take some time before I publish the Zoo series.

And... starting next month Stellai will get her own blog here. I was asked for this but as you will understand I am already too much behind with my work. Fortunately Stellai was (more than) willing to cover for me. She is convinced that it will save me a lot of time...

:?

I am less convinced.

In fact the opposite!
