Claim:
A method of making a doll of predetermined scale simulating the appearance of a person, comprising the steps of: obtaining a first full body image of the front of a person extending from the head to the feet of the person; rendering the first full body image to a predetermined scale; imposing the first full body image onto a transfer medium; obtaining a second full body image of the rear of a person extending from the head to the feet of the person; rendering the second full body image to a predetermined scale; imposing the second full body image onto a transfer medium; selecting from the first or second full body image; transferring the selected full body image onto a first doll exterior substrate; forming a second doll exterior substrate; joining the first doll exterior substrate at the peripheral edges to the second doll exterior substrate, while leaving an unjoined portion of the peripheral edges open, thereby generating a mostly closed interior; stuffing the joined first doll exterior substrate and second doll exterior substrate, using the unjoined portion for access to the mostly closed interior; and sealing the unjoined portion closed.
