[QUOTE="BoudiccaJones, post: 4506588, member: 5592"][CENTER][SIZE=5][COLOR=#ff0080]I LOVE to find these at booties etc...they are often dressed in what AJ mentioned earlier, regional costumes ... but handmade and with varying degrees of proficiency, and as their faces change to quite interesting shades ( usually I see green/yellow but anything paler than *flesh* is possible innit!) sellers tend to dismiss them as cheap tat. ( Know I'm preaching to the converted Charlie, just musin' out loud. x x) Three or so years ago I saw two yellow faces dressed in handmade outfits, really just bits of nasty *lace* really, on a dealers table whom I have a bit of a rivalry with ( don't know if he knows I even exist, I just keep an eye on his stuff :D ) and he charged me £1.50 for the both. He thought he'd made a bit of cash on rubb and I knew what I had so was win/win. The *outfit* was rotten and not even a real one so I took what was left of it off.
