Very comprehensive and thorough; I can't wait for the sequel!
An excellent instructional video . . . only wish I could meet her in person!
Loved the DVD......Akira Blount is a great teacher!
Loved the service from "Smart Flix" too. You kept me updated as to the status of my order and it was so easy to mail back....thank you.
Loved the video!! I plan to rent it again! Thanks smartflix!
Terrific. Absolutely wonderful instruction & demystifies needle-sculpting faces.
I found this dvd, full of good doll making advice. But it was a little slow on the running of it. tj
Wonderful instructions...definitely worth renting. Waiting for the second edition. Smartflix has a great service as well. Will rent again.
I just finished viewing this DVD and can't wait for the next one to come out. Akira's instructions are easy to follow and she is very inspiring.I have worked with cloth dolls myself for a number of years and learned alot from this DVD. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in dolls.
