Description I can finally post him now that he arrived safe and sound!  This wintery fellow is a fox/owl hybrid I made for the amazing .  The bird feet has cast resin toes and fully posing fingers for lots of gripping fun!  The wings are goose feathers.  I made the best glowing eyes I have ever accomplished with this doll, I used a junk brush to mix clear nail polish with teal glow powder and brushed it on before painting the blue eyes behind it (except pupils which I laid down first, very important)  I love the results!    The nose was a bit of an artistic risk for me, I didn't want to just make a flat owl face like so many artists have before, plus I love the long snout of the fox so I made the snout with a hooked beak like nose with a normal fox mouth below it and flocked the fur very carefully in a direction that would mimic the face of a barn owl.  

Merry Christmas all!

Sorry I'm so late to comment! You already know how I feel, but I still can't tell you how awesome he is 
in person. His large size makes him feel even more like a real animal than most dolls. He has a way about 
him that just makes me so happy. Not to mention, he's so frickin durable! My cat knocked him off a shelf
and he was completely fine. All I know is that you put so much work and time into your dolls, it really pays
off and shows. I will be posting a journal about him once you receive your room guardian (which is finished
by the way) I just haven't gotten around to sending it yet. I want to do a photoshoot of them 
together. Though my guardian looks like an ant next to him!

Awe I'm so glad you like him!    No rush, I'm sitting in my new craft room literally surrounded by boxes right now LOL  Lots of work to do.

Thank you, I was so happy when I found I had feathers big enough buried in my boxes lol ^_^  All my stuff is packed up now for the big Move Monday!

Oh I bet! I'll have to send you some feather from my geese, they may help with another project
Yay! Congrats
I have always found that unpacking and decorating was the funnest part

Yeah it HAS to be better than packing and reflooring and painting walls like I have been doing lol.  I guess the amount of boxes will be a little overwhelming but the worst will be over.    I'd love goose feathers!    I'd be happy to doll swap for materials once I'm set back up.

My fingers will be crossed for a nice and easy unpacking then!
Did you do carpet or hardwood flooring?
Just curious.
I will make sure to save the feathers for you then! I'll also find a couple of chicken feathers. They are molting something fierce so you'll get an assortment of colors

I'd really appreciate it!    Upstairs is all carpet and despite their cat and boxer it appears to be brand new and unstained, downstairs is all tile which I requested in the hunt for my fish tanks.

Eh I wear croc slip on sandals all the time anyway, it's still Florida so it doesn't really freeze here, though we're farther North now so 40's in the mornigs won't be unusual.

Ah that'll do it. Nothing is worse then a tile floor in new england first thing in the morning. Yikes...
Florida will be nice and toasty!

Thank you!  I don't mean this to sound snobby at all but I'm a little surprised it only has two comments and 8 faves after me being out of town for days, sometimes it's like that when I'm so proud of a doll and i think:  "This is the best thing I've ever done!"  and the public is just....meh.  >_>  lol  Oh well thank YOU for your comment and Anya likes it which is what really matters ~_^
