i started making this guy on friday… i thought he looked a little rodent like so went to the pet store and bought him a toy for inspiration.
he needed a rodent like tail, so i lightly felted a long piece of wool.
i wanted to get cartoon like ribbing on the tail and but needle felting each “rib” would have taken a very long time and i am sure i would have stabbed myself repeatedly. so i put rubber bands down the length of the tail, wet felted it, let it dry and then dyed it pink.
the tail did’nt come out exactly how i envisioned it, but i do love it.i added wire before i attached it so it would be posable. awww, my new pet monster with his toy! but he still needs a name…any suggestions?
oh you have done it again…he’s adorable, but looks like a trouble-maker too. Pinkums, perhaps?
Poogle.
This is very nice!
What about Longtail Duohorne?
Amazing!!! I love it! Send me some of that imagination for Christmas would ya? :p
Another brilliant one! I would call him something deceptively sweet, just to encourage people to put their fingers nearer to his little mouth, then wait for the inevitable snap!
Love this! What about Keres or Lamia? She seems like she needs a mythological or otherworldly name. . . .
Wow he’s great – I love seeing the new things you come up with – they are so different and inspirational. Thanks also for showing how you create your ‘creatures’
I saw your stuff at Makers Fair and I could’ve cried it was all so REFRESHING. Please keep them coming and may God keep your creative juices flowing so that you may continue bringing smiles to our faces!
