Magical. :) Her This book exceeded expectations. Very detailed, beautifully illustrated and the layout is whimsical and engaging. The artist/author's creations were inspiring! Our whole family adores this book, definitely recommended.. "1 star off for no sculpted bodies" according to Amazon Customer. I decided to edit my review after completing several project. While at first I was quite frustrated because this book wasn't what I expecting. These projects are all soft bodied - only the head, hands and feet are polymer clay. This wasn't made clear in the description of the book.However after making a troll and a witch - both modified, I really how much fun it can be to put your time into making those tricky parts and using a soft, poseable body which can stand on its own. I also have a tricky time with that. I picked up some great tips for costumes, hair, and armatures that I know I can use in other projects.Her dire. Five Stars love the book.
