A Russian artist has become an internet sensation after posting a video showing how he makes his unbelievably realistic hand-painted dolls. Made from a special type of modelling clay, with glass eyes, French mohair wigs and 13 joints each, Michael Zajkov's dolls are painstakingly hand-sculpted and are not available to order. The artist, who studied sculpture at Kuban State University, southern Russia, learnt his craft while working at a puppet theatre and even makes the clothes himself.
