(Larger version in the gallery) What is this? Talk of replacing Victoria's head with Posette's? GAAAAAHHH!!!!! Poor Vicky can't help it, she was born an ugly duckling. With a little patience and perserverence however, Victoria is the queen! She has lots more points in her head (bless its pointed little head) (and if anyone gets that reference, you're too old) anyway more points means much more versatility. She just started off ugly as a brick, but she doesn't have to stay that way... Thorne =};-}>

Great work! I love her teen appearance.

Great work.. She is so cute.

Yup, verrry nice work Thorne. Is the plan to release her to us mere mortals? ;-)

Queen Victoria by the King of Faeries... Great work, Thorne, as always. Arturo

Very nice indeed! Please at least put her in the store! I bought Vicky back in Dec or Jan and am still waiting for a good reason to use her. Queen Victoria would be a very good reason!

Beautiful Thorne, and I"m glad ye are finding all the lost bits, the best to thee and thine my friend

Ouch! I'm too old! I guess it's time to pack up the wooden ship...

Looking good Thorne ... And I agree. Just takes a bit of time to tweak Vicki.

Thorne, I when I was little we lived in the comunal house of that band, friends of my parents from college. Grew up surrounded by thier albums and that title always gave me the creeps BIG TIME. Oy.

Thank you everyone for your nice comments. momodot- Wow! Really? That's pretty slick! You know we all thought we were just the crown of creation, and after bathing at Baxter's we would go out looking for somebody to love. Any volunteers? Man, that kool-aid is something else...

Thorne, you are sooo ancient ;)

hehe... not really, I just read "The Electric Koolaid Acid Test" by Tom Wolfe. (Great book!) Well, maybe a little ancient- when they were having koolaid I would have been having baby formula in a bottle... "And I should have told him, no, you're not old And I should have let him go on Smiling, baby-wide..." From "Lather", but you knew that ;o)

Lather was 30 years old today, and I turned 35. Mother sent me a 1966 Golden Oldies CD, everything but "Wild Thing" so insipid, wow! Kantner, Kaukonen et al. were so way ahead. BTW did you see Jim Carey do that wicked Grace Slick in The Cable Guy?

As a fellow '66er, I would note that while I don't know what was on the gift CD, there were a lot of good records to be had in that year: Sounds of Silence; Eight Miles High; Day Tripper b/w We Can Work It Out; Paperback Writer; Yellow Submarine b/w Eleanor Rigby; Monday, Monday (Papa John! Did you know Roger McGuinn & Tom Petty wrote "King of the Hill" about him?); Paint It Black; Good Vibrations; I Got You (I Feel Good); It's a Man's Man's Man's Man's World; Uptight (Everything's Alright); Pretty Flamingo; When A Man Loves A Woman; Hold On, I'm Comin'; Ain't Too Proug to Beg; Land of a Thousand Dances; 634-5789; Reach Out, I'll Be There; You Keep Me Hangin' On; Knock On Wood; Psychotic Reaction; Dirty Water; and the Shadows of Knight's version of Gloria...to name but a few. Which is not to say that the Airplane wasn't great also. Indeed, to turn the topic back slightly to art, I was fortunate enough to collect a few concert posters from that very time period before they became "collectibles," including one for an Airplane/Dead show and one for an Airplane/Great Society show. Early Wes Wilsons, in fact.

I was just asking my wife if Yellow submarine was '66 or '69.

Got any kool-aid left?

The song "Yellow Submarine" was a single (in the UK anyway) from late '66. You might be thinking it was later because the movie is post-St. Pepper's... And I have no Kool-Aid. In fact, I work for an appeals court judge, so that would not look good. I'm just high on the music.

Yeah that's what Jerry said, too =};-}>
