Silverbeam dolls? I'm curious

I just found these dolls on etsy, by accident. I really like the whimsy of the designs, and I love the size. Has anyone seen or handled or bought one of these dolls? I'm very tempted to try my hand at painting one of the blanks.

I have one. They are very sturdy to be so tiny. I thought I had pictures of my mine with Richi, but I don't. I will take a picture this weekend. The surface has great "tooth" and took pastels easily. I made a green woodland sprite of mine. I have a Snowdrop.

That's reassuring. The reviews I found last night were either glowing or awful. I wondered if some of that was simply not understanding 3D printing. I'd love to see what you did with yours. I couldn't find many finished pictures.

Oh they're darling! I'd love to see some painted up. I love the mermaid.

Silverbeam lives close to me and I've handled her dolls in person before. They're cute! Agreeing with richila; they do really have some tooth to them but it's not necessarily a bad thing. XD If you love small dolls, I don't think you can go wrong with these. So teensy!
