.:Fairy Plushie Doll by ginkgografix

Ah what is it about the simplistic yet subtle appeal of the plush doll that just causes children to fling to it. One look into its reflective glass eyes and the child is immediately in love. They would take the toy with them wherever they would go, enticing themselves with the fruits of their journeys and adventures together. Nothing could separate the two from each other. Whether it was time at school, vacations to far away lands or even simply moving to another place. They would always find their way to meet each other once again. However, time always seems to have a way with waning any bond as eventually the child will grow up and the doll will remain as she is. As time goes by, the child's time and adventure with the charming doll become less frequent and soon loses all interest, as the doll remains where it always sat; neglected and forever feeling saddened by the lack of company its once loving companion no longer bestowed upon it. Soon, the doll will be rediscovered by its owner at a later time and the memories of their happiness would soon resonate forth through the owner's mind. Although time has passed and they cannot spend as much time as they could before, they decide that there is still someone who can. With a heavy heart they depart on one final journey to the location of another child. This child sees the doll in the exact same light as the owner and the unbreakable bond rekindles itself in their gaze. At long last, the plush doll's era of loneliness and sorrow has ended and it can enjoy the loving embrace of another child once more. .:Fairy Plushie Doll created by the CSS Fairy herself `ginkgografix, presents with an image of our childhood that will always be synonymous with the imaginative depths of our memories and hearts and immortalizes it in the form of a charming pixel character.

Just for starters, I am immediately attracted to the rather charming design style of the plush doll. Her small stitches that go down the center of the doll's face and its messy hair piled on top of its head really give off that feeling of the many dolls people have seen during their childhoods. Its small green dress adds even more personality to the plush doll and gives the doll a nice emulation of the real-style of a plush doll.

Now with the charm guiding this piece forward to the viewer's attention, I still feel as though there could be more that could be done to improve upon it. For one thing as much as I like its overall design style, but I feel there could be a bit more detail integrated into the design. Perhaps a bit of tarnish to it to simulate age and use or even slight strands of thread coming off of it. The design style is also hindered by the size of the doll which while charming, lowers a bit of the possibility. Maybe you could even add a background design to the composition and give a more personal touch to it and make it stand out that much further. Instead, the clear background kind of takes away from the piece and just makes it feel a bit empty as if its wanting some additional details to it help it. If possible, you could even give it a bit of a animation tween to it just to add that much more of its personality. All of these elements could really accentuate the already well-established artistic quality of this composition and create a near seamless design that would be sure to impress anyone.

Our childhoods may pass us, but the memories of good times that we had during that time will never be forgotten. They have shaped into the individuals we are today and made us stronger people because of it. Our minds are more imaginative and enable us to think more creatively to assist us in our adult years just as they helped in many of our childhood adventures. .:Fairy Plushie Doll is a solid remind of not only how we should forever hang on to our keys to our past, but also we should cherish them no matter what as without them we have absolutely nothing left. Yet another beautiful piece created by the CSS fairy herself. Good job!
