Artist's Comments

Gift for my dearest *silverfyre, who has been awesomely supportive and patient with me, as well as one of the most kick-assz0rs people evar, for the years that I've known her. This is my expression of gratitude toward her kind, sympathetic, and badass self. Also, I didn't give her anything for her birthday.

I intended the expression to be mischevious, but it came out downright sinister. I'm not sure these pictures convey the exact scariness this has in real life. o_O;

Sculpey and acrylic paint. The eyes and hair are nifty pearlescent blue-green, which I am verrah happy with. Also, it's hard to tell from the pictures, but the teeth are all sculpted, not just painted on. It's 7.25 inches from the bottom of the base to horntips. (Thanks, Silver. :heart:)

Wow...that's really wicked...both in the literal and New England sense of the word.
The details are fantastic, and even if the pictures don't quite convey his complete expression I think we get the idea.

Tell me quickly what's the story
Who saw what and why and where
Let him give a full description
Let him answer to Javert!
In this nest of whores and vipers
Let one speak who saw it all

Yeah, you already know how much this blows my mind. 8D :heart: :glomp: :heart:

And as for the dimensions, I measured 7 and 1/4 inches high from base to tip of the horns. ^^

*bombards you with love vibes*

That's way awesome! Sculpey you say? Hmm, how tall is it exactly? That's quite a bit of detail, and so natural looking.

Better a diamond with a flaw, than a pebble without

I generally make armatures for all my sculptures because it prevents wasting a lot of clay and because it adds stability. Most of my armatures are aluminum foil and either steel or aluminum wire (in this case I think I used both, but I can't really remember. ^^;) I have this feeling that you can pretty much make armatures out of anything you want, like paper or masking tape or something (I know a lot of people use epoxy, too). Sculpey is very forgiving. I also like the fact that you can bake it repeatedly. :heart:

You're going to sculpt all your characters? That sounds exciting! :D I can't wait to see!
