Mika's PYO's

[Mika]

Thank you very much! The headband stands out really well against the darker body of the cat.

I’m actually going to start on a tea-stained PYO dragon and kitty griffin soon (already got them stained), and I’m totally fine with people claiming dibs on them if they just absolutely love ’em.

Another piece that was just finished this morning and just in time for Valentine’s Day! Meet Kissune!

She was my first attempt at paint dipping. Most of her body is coated in iridescent paint for a nice shimmer effect when you move her in the light. All the tail tips are painted to look like chocolate hearts.

She’s for sale over here: https://windstoneeditions.com/members/mika/listings/view/1653033/pyo-kissune-the-kitsune-for-sale/

Also a quick note that Kissune has been sold.

Starting on another tea-stained piece. I think the fade came out pretty well on it.

Loving the fade and the staining. Really cool use of media. Also love your kissune (great pun) and such a neat use of shapes on the sculpt 🙂

Thank you very much!^^

However…

About a week ago I sadly dropped the dragon and it broke.:( I don’t have the time to repair it so I’m going to redo everything with a new figure. There were some aspects of the now-broken dragon that I didn’t like and can omit/modify with the new one to make it much better than its predecessor.

These photos were sent to me by sherry10151982 after I requested a few side-by-side photos of Sakura Tiger with his partner Bella Blue. The sushi cats were made almost exactly two years apart, and what a difference a little bit of time and experience make!

[Mika]

And the last two photos, with a close-up of the tiger on the bib. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to paint such a nice tiger ever again.

[Mika]

I was able to finish a piece! Found this while looking for the dragon figure, so I decided to tea stain both of them.
This is Crystal Koi!

The basicness of the piece shows off the tea staining really well imo.

[etruscan]

That is a very nice kitty, especially the contrast of the black and the tea stain. 🙂

[Suzanne-Marie]

Really nice work Mika !!
That tiger 🐯 is awesome !!

[Mika]

Thank you both!

I plan to work on a mate for Crystal Koi one day, eventually.
