# About me
When I'm not mucking around with dangerous chemicals and daydreaming about little ugly goblins I'll be over-excitedly experimenting with some other material and making a huge mess.I graduated from Illustration in 2011 and am now registered as a small business making art dolls on commission. Art dolls are an old craft with a long tradition that has burst onto the DA scene with hundreds of deviants now making monsters, creatures and critters of any shape or form imaginable. Why not unleash your imagination and send me a message to chat about creating a one of a kind monster just for you? You can contact me either here or at hello [at] magweno.com

I am getting a bit frustrated that I have not received my doll back. I don't care if it is not fixed, I want it back. I would LIKE to get my money back but I know I will never get my 600 bucks back from you. I see that you have been on DA 4 weeks ago but have not been returning anyone's messages.....

Hey there, I've been a huge fan of your art for about two or three years, //you're actually the reason I joined dA too omg,,// and I decided to attempt to stylistically draw some of your art dolls--
I wound up doing the Stiltikins one because it was so cute-
Anyway,, hope you have a good day!

Random question....because you definitely know what you're doing.
I'm planning on making a custom dragon figure, and I plan on using fantasy film to make the wings. But I've never worked with fantasy film before.
I noticed that some of your work features fantasy film. Do you have any tips on how to use it?
All I know is that you have to iron down layers of film onto a wire frame...but I don't know anything about good brands or anything else.
Thank you for your time!

I don't know about brands either, and I'm afraid I don't have many tips! Just that you shouldn't be afraid to try something that isn't "right" or the "correct" way to do things. Sometimes the best and most unique features are made by accident, so just grab some fantasy film and play around with it!
