Russian artist Michael Zajkov is an incredibly talented sculptor as demonstrated by his line of absolutely stunning, but eerily lifelike dolls that are anatomically correct and fully articulating. Each of the dolls is hand-crafted out of polymer clay, sculpted with masterful precision, and then painted with hauntingly hyper-realistic results.
