Frodo and Merry pics

[ismenin]

Good morning! Some of you evinced a desire for more detailed pics of the Merry and Fro now reposing in my bedroom. So here they be! Enjoy. I love the way the jackets are lined with silk. Frodo's is brown silk, as Rich didn't seem to take a pic of his. :D

The bodies lying at their feet are the dolls Aina Baggins made for me last year, not Hobbit babies. I wish.

Frodo's lips are way too full yeah? More like Angelina Jolie-like *lol*

However Merry is brilliantly done! They captured somehow Dom's whole facial-expression!

No doll I have ever seen has captured Frodo. I look on this as a Frodo-likeness, but Merry is DomMerry. True. Snogs them. xxx

Oh yes, now I see the resemblance to Dom in Merry. It’s the nose and jawline. Frodo’s is like him but the eyes are too small and the mouth too big I think. Thanks for sharing them Issy.

"The bodies lying at their feet are the dolls Aina Baggins made for me last year, not Hobbit babies. I wish."

LOL! That had me laughing hard!

Wow, their faces are wonderful. I swear, it looks like they'll open their mouths and start talking. What lovely dolls from head to feets! I also like how beauituflly made their clothes are. Look at the lining in Merry's coat and their wee capes. And Frodo is wearing the ring....

"No doll I have ever seen has captured Frodo."

I so agree! I wanted to buy some of the sideshow collectible Frodo figures, but they just weren't Frodo. How can it be that difficult? I don't get it.

The ERing is my mother's wedding ring, so is Precious to me. :D I do wish I could sleep in that room - it has a wonderful feeling about it. Sigh. xxx

I wonder if it is because Elijah has such perfect features? Nose, chin, eyes, everything. It must be easier to mould a likeness of asomeone with irregular features - as witnessed in the Dom-Merry doll. I certainly would have bought the Weta things - the expensive ones, I mean - if they had been halfway like him. But No, they weren't. Pity. xxx

You're welcome, my love. I agree - Elijah's REAL mouth is perfect. That just looks like a girl! ;D xxx

The Merry is wonderful. It looks so like DomMerry. I love the clothes on them both. Perfect.

[ismenin.livejournal.com]

I love their clothes, too. Their shirts, waistcoats and coats are beautifully tailored. Merry has braces (suspenders), too. The only thing is - they aren't wearing any under-drawers! Yes, I looked! And I cannot see either the Master of Buckland or Mr Frodo Baggins of Bag-End setting out on any journey without decent underdrawers. Maybe someone will make them some! :D xxx

Awww, so kewt! I see what you mean about Merry's face, very Dom-like!

Btw my Boyz have just arrived about 9.15 so they are back safely :) Hope you have good news about your Boy and the bathroom.

BIG hugs!

I have a Frodo too and the eyes are quite large actually, it's just the lips are too full and luscious to be Lijah's even though *his* mouth is perfection! ;)

Nick rang just after you = they let him come home and attend for the tests as an OP. He was very glad, I tells ya! Glad your boys got home safely! xxx

No matter what you say - I shall believe that the dolls at their feet are their offspring!! LOL

The Dom/Merry doll is a very good likeness - but I agree with you and the others that the Frodo doll doesn't look like Elijah. But it's still a lovely doll!! And I expect they will have lots of fun together!!

Thanks so much for sharing the pics. Hope you have a great weekend - looking forward to Sunday!!

They are adorable!! I love Frodo's expression - a hint of after-glow! *sniggers* And Merry looks like he's saying "What makes you think it was me that just shagged Frodo senseless?" *blink blink*

[ismenin.livejournal.com]

Giggles. To my mind it's Fro does the bonking, but I go with your meaning! ;D xxx

[ismenin.livejournal.com]

Now, tell me - why should Merry and Fro have babies that look like Pip and Sam? Has there been shenanigens amonst the hollyhocks? Who knows? ;D

I love my dollies - I am a BIG kid!! xxx

[janejanejane.livejournal.com]

That's good news that your boy is home. Hope now that the test results are good news too.
