We will be holding a charity raffle to raise extra money for the charity donation. All attendees will get a free raffle ticket (including organisers) and this will be drawn at the end of the day by a member of the company donating the prize. While we cannot confirm exactly what the prize is yet I can assure you it will cost more then the few raffle tickets you may purchase
We are aiming to be able to raffle a doll / doll head painted by Iccheayo in the face up workshop.
Once we know for sure we will let you all know.
Despite this you are able to purchase raffle tickets from today. You can buy these by sending £1 to registrations@soloartworks.co.uk with your name and username. I will write this on the back of the raffle ticket and email you the number, which I will then give to you on the day. (please send as a personal payment otherwise the donation will be less then £1)
Only REGISTERED attendees may purchase raffle tickets.
Do you have extra doll things laying about that you want to bring to sell but without the hassle of sitting beside it waiting for customers?
Bring it to the ‘Bring & Buy Table’ and we will sell it for you and you can collect your profits at the end of the day.
The Head of Bring and buy is Nekomalik, Who has run the bring and buy for many major UK anime conventions and DDR:UK. She is trust worthy and dedicated to ensuring everyone’s items are looked after and sold in perfect condition.
A small donation to the charity would be appreciated when collecting your profits of the day.
We will be putting up a form for people to fill in for when they bring in their items. Watch this space for more information.

Time:TBA
Iccheayo from Viridian House has kindly agreed to run the face up demonstration. Caroline, or Iccheayo is, in my opinion, the best UK based Face up artist and one of the best in the hobby. She has painted two of my dolls and the work is top notch so having her give us a workshop on how she paints her dolls is going to be great!
We will be providing her with a doll head to demonstrate on, and this will later go up for auction/ raffle with the proceeds going to charity.
So make sure to bring your paints and pastels and follow her examples on your own dolls! (MSC will not be allowed at the venue so ensure that all your spraying is done post con day)
You can view her face up portfolio>here<
Extra details to be confirmed closer to the day.

Time: TBA
The Photography Demonstration will be ran by River, One of the most popular UK Doll Photographers. Popular for her beautiful dolls and great camera skills she has agreed to run a demonstration on how to take the best photographs of your dolls.
This workshop will cover the basics, such as the best angles, Lighting, composition and how to work with what you have. To the more advanced.
All you will need is your camera and a listening ear to find out the best ways to get those top notch photos of your dolls while avoiding the pit falls that a lot of doll owners fall into.
==If you have a skill or business, be it face ups, blushing, wig creation or modding and would like to organise a demonstration please message one of the organisers and we will add you in.==
