Gnilla The Regal

Casting about for ideas good enough for the Ladybug Masquerade Ball, Gnilla realized the best costume would be regal, would be magnificent, would be… to dress as Queen Dotty herself! Is it little bit cheeky? Probably, but the queen loves a good giggle.

She's available separately or as part of the Grimblewoods Collection Volume 2.

Many tutorial videos provided. Also, check out the Gnome Schooling tutorials for all sorts of important tips and help with your gnoming needs!
