dolls like you and me

following on from my theme from previous posts reminiscing about childhood etc... i set myself a little experiment tonight. As a child one of my favorite programmes was the raggy dolls- they each had a defect and were put in the reject bin. i want to reciprocate the characters with modern day fashion photography.
