Dont worry, since I’m a one-person workforce it will be a slow but steady pace for me. I’m doing every step myself. I’m the sculptor, the mold-maker, the caster, and the painter! Whew! 😀
These are all really great Purplecat. I love the jackalope, heck I like them all.
I can’t wait to see how you paint them, you are such a good painter, so I know these are going to be awesome when done.

I wanted one that would be similar to the first but very individual, she has a very royal demeanor, yet shy. Plus my detailing skills are getting better! 😀 😀 😀
Holy smokes Purplecat! Your work is just too dang cute! What type of clay do you use for the sculpts? Do you use a wire base and model the clay over the top? Where did you find the eyes? Tons of questions… (sorry 😳 ) How are you making the mold and what medium will you cast in?… new snail dragon, jackalope, chirpmunk, original snail dragon… you’re quick and good and what a great imagination! I grovel at your feet…

😆 😆 😆 I make a kindof aluminum foil sculpture base with wire if I need it and then slather on the sculpey! It’s truly awesome stuff and I plan on casting in a really dense plaster called dry-stone that I’m hoping will give a nice quality casting. It hasn’t arrived yet so that may change if I’m not pleased with the finished product. 😀 😀
I may have to get big and brave and give it (sculpting) a try. Gulp… Haven’t done anything much since college waaaay before my twinners were born 😯

That newest piece is so neat, purplecat. So, just curious – are these going to be for sale, or are they strictly for personal enjoyment?
I’m gonna be casting them and painting them for sale here soon. My casting and mold-making stuffs are on their way but there is still some refining yet to do before I get a “master” casting that I can keep for making multiples of. Just lemme know if you want one of any of these and I’ll put you on the list. 😀 😀 😀 However, I probably wont do copies of the jackalope until I figure how to cast him without his antlers being super fragile. 🙂
