| Trick or treat? a Halloween paper doll, 2024 |
Butch Deloria is a fictional character from the Fallout game series, known specifically for his appearance in Fallout 3. He is a resident of Vault 101, where the player begins his journey. Butch is a young adult who has a "complicated" relationship with the protagonist (the player) and other residents of the Vault. In the game, he is depicted as a typical bully, who tries to appear tough, but is also seen as someone who seeks approval.
Because I'm treading strange waters, I left the link here if you want to know more about the character.
Let's focus on paper dolls.😉

The paper doll I share is from Sarria. You can see more Sarria's artwork here.
These paper doll took inspiration on Dc Universe. Sarria made fanart about Jason Todd.
Jason Todd is a character from the DC comics universe, known mainly for being the second Robin, Batman's sidekick. He was introduced in Batman #357 in 1983.
Jason Todd is a young man who has had a difficult life, having been orphaned and living on the streets before being recruited by Bruce Wayne (Batman) to become his partner. Jason Todd's story is complex, touching on themes of redemption, betrayal and the challenges of finding a balance between revenge and justice.
Jason Todd dies at the hands of the Joker. After
his death, Jason was resurrected and returned as Red Hood, an antihero
who often comes into conflict with Batman and other heroes, but who also
fights crime in his own way.

Over the following years, this controversy fueled the press and was exploited in a quintessentially American way.
Prior to this event, all I had heard about her revolved around her early days as a country singer...
"T-Swizzle" (as most of her fans affectionately call her), she has since evolved into a global superstar, achieving remarkable success. This year with her The Eras Tour, which has had a significant economic impact wherever she performed giving rise to the expression “Swift lift”.
However, I won’t delve into that topic here. Paper dolls is my business!
Taylor's
beauty, combined with her fabulous fashion looks, dresses, gowns, and
outfits, certainly makes her an ideal subject for the world of paper
dolls.
If you search online, you'll find various paper doll art featuring Taylor Swift, but who can style young pop stars better than Julia Murray?(I love her art work)
Previously, I shared Julia's fantastic art work on a paper doll inspired by Harry Styles' incredible wardrobe.
The Dress Up Taylor paper doll book features one doll and twelve of Taylor Swift's most iconic outfits. Published by Smith Street Books, it is available for purchase at several online sites.
Here’s a sneak peek for you...

| Lance Rayburn by Carl Davis in TWT, sep/85 |
Over the past few weeks, we've shared Lance Rayburn's paper dolls illustrated for TWT Magazine: This Week in Texas with the main theme being the Mr. Texas winners from the first contest edition in 1974 until 1985.
Who is the artist behind these Mr. Texas paper dolls? Lance Rayburn (1957-) is the artist who created this series of paper dolls published in TWT magazine throughout 1986. In the interview he gave to TWT magazine (September/85) he presents himself as a fan of pink, Barbie and Ken, Tom Selleck, comics and paper dolls. He began drawing and collecting paper dolls as a child. In his apartment, it must have looked like an Alibaba cave for paper doll collectors, there was a wardrobe full of boxes of paper dolls collected over the years. At around age 24, he began drawing his own paper dolls. In addition to Mr. Texas also drew personalities from the world of cinema, music, fashion, friends and real people, among others.
"Paper doll collectors are pretty much pack rats." Lance Rayburn
The release Beyond Mr. Texas also designed personalities from the world of cinema, music, fashion, among others...
We share here the paper doll Terry Tebedo (1949-1988), activist, fighter and defender of human rights and the LGBT community. If you're interested, you can read more about Terry by clicking here...

Para além da serie Mr. Texas também desenhou personalidades do mundo do cinema, da música, da moda, de amigos e pessoas reais, entre outros...Deixamos aqui o boneco de papel de Terry Tebedo (1949-1988), ativista, lutador e defensor dos direitos humanos e da comunidade LGBT.

Hoje partilhamos a última paper doll da série Mr. Texas de Lance Rayburn publicado na TWT: This Week in Texas magazine ao longo de 1986 como um calendário de bonecos de papel. Mike Horn (1959- ????) venceu o Mr. Austin, o Mr. Capital City e o Mr. Texas '85 ao mesmo tempo que lutava pelos direitos humanos. Os seus “hobbys incluem cinema, campismo e caminhadas” porque para ele a saúde, o bem-estar e a felicidade são mais importantes do que o dinheiro.

Curt has an interesting story...a witch hunt of sorts that tested his integrity as a human being and cost him his dream of a career in the Air Force.
In the same year he won the title of Mr. Texas '84, Curt was discharged from the United States Air Force on suspicion of being gay. The proof that he was gay, which US Air Force investigators found in his room, was the trophy he won at Mr.Texas... then, under threats, he was forced to admit his sexual orientation as homosexual.
If you want to read his story in his own words, check out TWT Aug/84.
So, here's the Curt Milstead paper doll...

O próximo vencedor do prémio Mr. Texas é Curt Milstead (1963-1995). Formou-se e mais tarde tornou-se assistente de dentista após ingressar na Força Aérea dos Estados Unidos em 1982 e foi também instrutor de fitness em part-time. Curt tem uma história interessante... uma espécie de caça às bruxas que testou a sua integridade enquanto ser humano e que lhe custou o sonho de uma carreira na Força Aérea. No mesmo ano em que conquistou o título de Mr. Texas '84, Curt foi dispensado da Força Aérea dos Estados Unidos por suspeita de ser gay. A prova de que era gay, que os investigadores da Força Aérea dos EUA encontraram no seu quarto, foi o troféu que ganhou no Mr.Texas... depois, sob ameaças, foi obrigado a admitir a sua orientação sexual como homossexual. Se quiser ler a história dele por suas próprias palavras, dê uma vista de olhos na TWT Agosto/84. Então aqui está a paper doll de Curt Milstead... Até à próxima!
