Star Wars has so many different collectibles and figures for their millions of different characters, so it is really refreshing to see a Matryoshka doll set that not only looks amazing but could stand up proud.
This hand painted Matryoshka doll set was created by Matt Brown as a Christmas gift for his brother. As he mentioned, it wasn’t an easy task, but the results as you can see are very much fulfilling.
From His Blog:
I bought a set of blank Matryoshka dolls online and painted them with acrylic. It took several evenings to finish, whilst watching the original trilogy. There was quite a bit of cursing here and there, and the hair-drier came in very handy, but I think it turned out fairly well.
With the sizes varying from a six inch Darth Vader doll to a 1 inch Yoda, the set stores inside one another as should, and is definitely something Star Wars fans would drool for.
When asked about some personal feedback about such a project, Matt added:
Well, my brother loves them – which made all the fretting worthwhile. And since posting it on my blog I’ve actually had a few requests to do private commissions on other themes. It’s brought people to my site that otherwise wouldn’t have seen it. One was a band wanting me to do some work for their next album cover, after seeing the dolls – which is fantastic.
For other great collectibles and art of the series, check out the gadget collection of Star Wars charcters or even the Disney Star Wars figures.
Well Done Matt! Thank you for the images and taking time to talk.
