Some wip shots of my fennec fox master model I'm working on. It looks much better in person ( I don't understand why the fur texture looks so rough in the photos, and the nose looks bigger than in person too >.<)
Anyways, just try to imagine it with the enormous ears x3
Can't wait to finish one!
(made with super sculpey and a bit of super sculpey firm for the nose)
The parts you can see in the photo are the original sculpture made of polymer clay by me. The finished product is molded by myself from this original sculpture
I'm very curious about how you make your beautiful creatures. If you don't mind I have some quick questions =^_^=
Are the eyes store bough? And since you use a master mold to make the faces, are you able to put the eyes in after the clay is dry? (though I'm not sure what is used, I've only worked with originals in sculpy, never made molds) How do you fasten the faces to the plush part? Any tricks to make the two look like one rather than fake? (yours looks so believable)
- Nope, I make them of clear resin - Yes, I just make the eye holes a bit bigger than the eye. So it's just a taking your time to put the eyes in, in an specific way and move them until they are in the correct position. - The faces are made of urethane resin - I'm not sure if I understand the question xD. To integrate the hard parts to the fur you need to paint them in a color as exact as possible to the fur color and trying to simulate the fur tones
Are these molds?
If they are, where can you get them?

As for the last one, that is what I meant and answered it well =^_^=
