New custom animals

[Ashes]

I am going to try and make some animals that are the style of LPS animals. I would make them out of polymer clay and/or apoxie sculpt so they would be plastic but not toy plastic. So they would be great for displays but probably not for kids playing with them.

I've had a look at the threads with peoples top 5 before it all ends, and if hasbro was listening. I've seen some I might like to make and I've got some of my own ideas as well.

These might be some:
red and blue heelers
polar bear
tiger
tapir
lion
lioness
leopard
jaguar
puma
tasmanian devil
tasmanian tiger
koala
kangaroo
platypus
wombat
fox
wolf
pit bull
horses
chicken

They would take quite a while to make each because they would have to be disigned, sculpted (longest part), and painted. So I don't know whether it would be worth doing for ebay. Although it would be animals hasbro doesn't have and they would be more of the proper shape than customs that are hasbro ones painted - they would not be offical hasbro pets, i would not be able to make their heads bobble (they would be one solid piece), and wouldn't have a magnet. So I don't know if people would be interested or not.

Of course if people were interested I could do other animals, not just my preference ones. But with the time that would have to go into them I think it would be to much cost for people. Maybe people would want to trade pets for them? I would love to get a ferret for my sister (not the geerret with the big head), but ebay costs and postage get too high. And of course I am always looking out for polat puppies but I don't think anyone wants to trade them if they do find them.

I might try to start making one today or tomorrow. Probably a heeler. Although If people are interested I don't know if they'd be looking for a heeler.

If anyone is interested what would you really really want? Or if anyone has ideas relating to this let me know.

I have some pictures of some of my clay work here

It looks like there is a pit bill in the top of the diary. i dont know if its full sized or not but im going to assume they'll make that one then so ignore that on the list i wrote.

Great Job!Real talent!

[Ribbedebie]

wow! your clay work is amazing! its a original idea to make LPS style animals.
do their heads bobble?

[Ashes]

I wouldn't be able to make their heads bobble. They would have to be one solid piece.
chihuahuamamma: I thought about how you were interested in Neopets custom things and I know with things that aren't allowed to be sold to make a profit, like tv recordings, what people do is swap things for them. So maybe you would be interested in that?

OMG..your babies are amazing. Do you sell your art, because there are several pieces that I would definitely buy because I just love miniatures and your art is amazing.

[Ashes]

Erika: Some pieces I would sell. Most of this is art I have done for myself or others though, so it would depend on which pieces you were interested in. I have some of the animals that were made as tree decorations left (I personally have also used mine as necklace pendants). I am currently taking commissions if you are interested in having custom pieces made
