Little Sly Cooper

Little Sly Cooper @ The Happy Camper Orphanage
I made this sculpt for Dev, years ago...  I finally got around to painting him!
He now sits in our planter in the kitchen.

DEAD
Paperclay, wire, cell paint and wood
I made a plush version of this guy a few years back... decided it would be fun to make in paperclay!
I coated him in matte varnish and hit the intestines and blood with a glossy varnish to make it look more JUICY!

Jacques the starfish
Otis the worm
These are two sculpts from our game Solitaire Blitz! I made them for my two friends (Jason: game designer genius and Jordan: animator extraordinaire)
stumpy skulls
These were a few test skulls. I tried to paint them to look like bone. I originally wanted to make them pendants/necklaces. But maybe magnets? Some friends suggested pins or hairclips! (great idea!)
What do you think?
"Privacy Please!"
Paperclay, acrylic paint, gravel and shrink plastic
This is another paper clay dude. He is about 2 inches tall.
I found some "gravel" for dioramas at a craft store - thought it would make perfect kitty litter!

Oh, and the book he is reading is "Success for Dummies".

4 1/4" (from top of the ear to the base)

Alfred.

Our friends, Jordan and Lindsay, had the difficult task of saying goodbye to their dear 'son' Alfred last month. He was such a special dog... a gentle giant.  He will be missed.

...in memory of Alfred...


Chokadillo!

Our friend Rich (who is an insanely talented artist) commissioned me to make a plush artichoke and armadillo for Halle. I was so excited when I found the perfect suede velvet! 

I thought it would be funny if the little dude was hiding (as a surprise) inside the choke.
This is how it turned out - they call it Chokadillo!






Stumpy Votive Candles

I made these votives for my friend Amber - of her adorable cats Stella and Pepper. This was the first time working with water slide decals. I think they turned out ok!
