Description This will be my mum's b'day present. I made it a bit early though, while I had the inpsiration.

It's Mole/Krtek/Krteček/Krecik/Kisvakond, a cartoon character created by Zdeněk Miler in 1956.

- Sculpted from Super Sculpey (Living Doll)
- Painted with mum's acrylics while she wasn't watching
- Nicked 9 hairs from a brush dad was using to prime a canvas (ie not an important brush )
- Height: 1¾ inches (4.5cm) minus the hair

This wasn't as easy as it looks =_= or like I thought it would be.... such an awkward shape the way the arms are half relief, half sticking out.

Unpainted: [link]


edit 28/06/07: Gave it to her today ^_^ We put him next to the b'day cake so it looked like he was going "woww, look at that big sugary/creamy mountain!"

Mweeee!! It's so cute! Sculpting is deffinitely something I cannot do very well. I wish I could make figures like that... I applaud you on your fine work (especially its arms/hands)!

It is really fun! But mine either looks like a giant blobbie amoeba, or (if it does turn out well) it breaks/shatters into pieces (and, even though I can be rather clumsy, that's usually do to other people...).

Aww...yes it is so sad if they break/die in the oven after you've completed them I'm very lucky that hasn't happened to me yet (well except for the snowman, but since I made another one it's ok)

Yeah....oddly enough, it was always the school Art teacher in junior high who broke mine. She learned quickly not to mess with/try fixing my things. I hate it when they take your artwork and try to "fix" it for you (especially when it looks fine)... So many of my things got ruined that way...

Jeez what a bummer...

Once in Year 9 I was drawing a snake and the replacement teacher we had kept trying to tell me where the light/shadows should be even though I already had my own ideas of how to draw it, and in the end we made each other so angry >_< But they are helpful sometimes (ideas etc). It's just when they get to the specific stuff...
