Rowena

Face-up artist(s):

Rosslyn

Body blushing artist(s):

Rosslyn

Modifications artist(s):

Rosslyn

Date of acquisition:

2009

Provenance:

Unidoll

Reason for choice:

She has a less typical face shape. Most female dolls look too alike to me for me to care about them, but Unidoll Suri had wide shoulders and a leggy athletic looking body, with a face that had character to it.

Best Points:

She is thick-resin'ed and sturdy, and poses very well

Worst Points:

Her resin went from a creamy pale ivory-peach tone to a greenish rancid butter color! I sanded and dyed her over to add reds back to her skin and she's been restored to a sunny peach. I think she was from a less color-stable batch of resin as the company had begun to have problems even in 2009.

Lady Rowena and her family often visited the Court of Dun Elisedd when she was a child, to pay homage to their King. She and Lir played together as children, and went riding together as teens. She went away for a while and they lost touch. Now, with Lir home from his own travels, they have begun to renew their acquaintance, as a man and a woman... Pressure from the rest of the Court insists they wed and secure the Throne. She's not sure if her heart and her duty are in agreement or not. She likes Lir, but can she marry him? Saving the kingdom is important, but so is her freedom...
