Thanks to the lovely @sodapanque for letting me dollify her Penelope and Odysseus. After dollifying @freaklikeeliza 's Telemachus here (https://www.tumblr.com/your-everyday-rapunzel/813987962357465088/unexpected-update-i-have-found-the-person-who?source=share), I felt it only right to do the rest of the Ithacan royal family. Penelope is installment 2 in the series.

Okay so I didn't take any progress pics of the body because you can't even tell it's her without the clothes. I didn't have the yarn color I wanted for her dress when I started her, so I used this for the prototyoe dress because I knew the v-neck was gonna be a pain. I also decided to do the dress first and then the hair because doing hair and then clothes was incredibly bothersome for Telemachus.

Here's when I finally got my little mitts on the dress color I wanted. I wound up making the dress a little shorter on the bottom in comparison to the second pic because I just didn't much like it so long.

I completely forgot to take any progress pics of the wig cap and bun before adding the first hair curlique, so here's with the first, second, and third. The hair for Penelope was SO much easier than for Telemachus, and I really love how it came out. I paused for a while after this because I had a critical equipment malfunction (my tool pouch broke in a way I couldn't fix) and had to fix the issue (I made a new tool holder that's not even done yet because I got sidetracked).

This is also where I just completely forgot to take any more progress pics because ALMOST DONE ALMOST DONE SO CLOSE NO TIME TO PAUSE FOR PICS.

I'll post the pics of the final doll in the next reblog down due to Tumblr's image limit.

I added a little lavender shawl to be kinda like the scarf in the original drawing, and I did my best to mimic her bangs without having pieces loose. I think they came out pretty dang cute, not to pat myself on the back.

Then I did the gold on her neck, waist, hair and arms. They were all varying levels of irritating, either due to how I had to move her or how I had to connect the loops.

The laurels were also irritating because I had to sew them on for the sake of size. They came out a bit crooked, so I might end up redoing them, but for now I'm happy with them.

The last piece of her ensemble was the sandals, which, like the laurels, turned out a little goofy. However, they are mostly hidden by her dress, so they can be a little goofy.

Overall, I'm very happy with how she came out. I think she's so stinking cute and I can't wait to get to work on her husband. Thanks again to @sodapanque for letting me do this! 🩵

I'm so amazed by the plushie and the process behind it. I've read every line, and it's so sweet how it all went to achieve such a beautiful result. I especially love its hair; it's usually what I notice first x).
