Almost done my newest soft sculpture...

... a newborn kitten. I've had some requests for an "off ebay" creation, so I'll be offering this newborn kitten to my mailing list, my blog followers, and facebook friends. I should have it ready to show tomorrow! :o)

~ Gitxsan ~ a sweet recycled mink brown bear cub :o)

I'm excited to introduce Gitxsan to you! He is a miniature brown bear cub created from recycled mink fur. I've named him Gitxsan after our local First Nations People. Gitxsan meands "people of the river of mist" - I think that is such a beautifully poetic name! Gitxsan has lots of detail including open/close mouth and eyes. You are invited to visit his auction which has all his pictures and details... http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170618459476






I hope you enjoyed seeing him here and I hope you'll let me know what you think of him! :o))

So much inspiration!

I just wanted to share the litter of puppies that our sweet Bloodhound/Rottie had last week. I'm dying to finish up my current projects and start on a newborn puppy. I don't think I'll make it quite as dark as these ones as it is hard to get the camera to take a good photo of dark objects. But I'll try to make it just as adorable!!

She had nine healthy babies and is a wonderful mom!

And she's done! ~ 11" realistic koala :o)

I finally finished and photographed my latest commission piece - a sweet 11" koala made from vintage recycled mink. She has open/close eyes and individually wired fingers/toes with epoxy clay claws.












I hope you enjoy seeing her! :o)

Hugs,
Melisa

What's coming up?.....

I didn't manage to get anything ready for ebay today as I've been working hard at finishing up a white recycled mink koala commission. I was hoping to have pictures of that one ready today, but I'm a bit behind.

Coming up soon for adoption... I have a little mink brown bear and a newborn kitten in the works. I hope to be done one of those within the next week.

Hugs to you all,
Melisa

~ Bao Mei ~ sweet miniature & realistic panda baby

Hello everyone! I hope you enjoy seeing my newest panda baby! I've been so excited about her :o) I was inspired by photos of orphaned pandas so I also made her a tiny "bamboo" baby bottle. She was such a enjoyable baby to create... one of the reasons I love doing this is the feeling I get when I can hold the finished little one in my hands and feel my heart flip flop when I look in their eyes.







Bao Mei is available on ebay... http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170612517081 I hope you can visit her auction - lots of photos there! :o)

A panda in the works....

... and she's close to being finished. Most of my pandas are boys, but this one seems to be determined to be a sweet little girl :o) She is the same size as most of my other miniature pandas that I've been doing, but with some different details. She is a bit younger than the other cubs, so she will still have some pink to her nose and paw pads. I'm really enjoying her, so I couldn't wait until Sunday to let you know she will be my next ebay auction!
