    The hair and ears are really creeping me out!! But when I saw this in her shop I got even more freaked!! Look at pics 3 and 4 and you’ll see what I mean.

    Half of me is thinking-you don’t use molds? Why the hell not? I mean, have you SEEN what your “creating” by not using molds?
    And the other half of me is thinking…It’s a good fucking thing you don’t use molds otherwise there would be a ton of these things running around! They look like they would eat through your flesh & take over your body!

    I’m trying here, but truthfully. I’ve got nothing.

    The first place my snarky brain went was some sort of Maury Povich DNA Paternity Test show with a row of random guys sitting there and Gizmo the mogwai in the last chair being all ‘SHE’S A HO! THAT AIN’T MY BABY SHE’S A HO. I’m 10002% sure that baby isn’t mine!!’

    At least give us a toe or a vagina or something to work with (that Thalidomide thing was funny as hell though, btw)

    I must concur with this one too. The more I stare at this, the more I think it’s eyes are just going to pop open and it’s going to lunge at me through the monitor and eat my soul with its evil devil-mouth

    this is obviously a relative to the yowling horror seen previously. in pic 2 she looks like she is doing one of those “i’ll crush your head” photos.

    #8: it looks like its been in a bar fight.

    #10: i love darkvomit’s stuff, and the fact that he takes pride having been featured here.

    Holy shit on a shingle, that poor little thing looks straight out of “Fringe”. Where the hell is Walter when you need him??
    The “kitten” “thing” in her shop is equally horrifying. Hey, at least she’s got a voice as an artist though.

    BTW–sometimes the profiles are as entertaining as the “art”. I particularly love this bit:
    “If you wish, I can make a special sculpture just for you, maybe you would like a likeness of your pet (I shall need a photo for this), not only a cat or a dog, but also for example a little rat.”

    oh but this http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23756029 is disturbing in a way that only someone who has ever had or known a very premature baby can understand…

    So I am repulsed and yet in a funny way, I kinda like this woman’s work. I guess I know I should look away, but can’t…

    I own three Chihuahuas. I live with “ugly”. And that damn thing scared the hell out of me.

    So, I called the kids in- “Hey, look what’s on Regretsy today!”

    And I sat back and chortled… yes, chortled.

    When this thing wakes up, it’s either going to:
    1.set up shop in your tree and start baking cookies.
    or
    2.jump on your chest, chew out your jugular and lay eggs in your ear.
    I hope its new owner jams an ice pick in the back of its skull while it’s sleeping, just to be safe.

    Anybody remember the ending of bride of chucky? Shes all burnt up and gives birth to this creature that kills the cop.

    It’s not bad, the details are great, but it isn’t cute or cuddly. Not even the ugliest human baby looks that evil.

    At this very moment, over TEN THOUSAND views and SOLD.

    Helen, this would not have been possible without you. I’m not sure that’s a *good* thing — the artist may be encouraged by the attention, not knowing 9,000 out of those 10,000 had to clean vomit off their monitors.

    Helen … you’ve been on a buying spree! Should we take a hint & follow? :) You could be starting a trend.

    Everyone else … what bugs me about this seller is her “too early born” offering (and hopefully I’ve pasted this correctly):

    http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_1&listing_id=23756029

    I want to know, sincerely, why she made this? Did she have a preemie? My girl was born “too” early … 25 weeks. She’s now 2, healthy, gorgeous! We preemie moms gotta stick…
