Project Rattus
so.... i have finished the first of the Rattus series. this is ;
articulated at feet, arms and head, with loads of flex in tail. she is sculpey studio base, sanded down and then painted with acrylic. the little bag is leather hand stitched and has a rivet button fastening, and the feather is tied on with ribbon. she stands at 2 and a half inches.
Nico is a small rat, and likes to climb to the rooftops to watch the birds. she often carries crumbs in her little bag to tempt the local city pidgeons closer to her, but usually ends up eating them herself.
she has turned out really well, and though i love the fur effect, i wil probbaly use appropriate colour scuplty to cut down of the workload for the next model.
the cunning plan (so cunning you could stick a tail on it and call it a weasel) is to make up a small set of these (about 5-6) then head on over to etsy. i'll keep you posted.
