I really like the story of Pinocchio...
Figures are in scale 1:12.
Geppetto is 16 cm tall and Pinocchio is 11 cm tall.
Look at them: What nice guys!

DeleteTus personajes llenos de realismo ¡¡¡ felicidades por tu trabajo ¡¡
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for your kind words! I am very happy to welcome you here! Gracias! :-)
DeleteI really like the story of Pinochio too - the underlying messages are very deep. The yearning of Guiseppe for a child to love, the way he cares for his little wooden boy - unconditional love; the lessons Pinochio learns along the way and how he eventually becomes a 'real' little boy. If we look for the deep meanings there are lessons for us all. Your figures are wonderful as always, and express the characters so very well. Sandie
