Description Occasionally, I get the opportunity to design/sculpt special commission animals for other artisan dollhouse miniature projects.  This 'Steampunk-themed' Irish Setter was commissioned for such a work.  The dog was freehand sculpted from BeeSputty clay, wire, Genesis oils and hand-dyed alpaca fiber.  After furring the sculpt, the hat, harness and goggles were made from clay, paints, leather and metal embellishments.  This miniature dog will be part of a fabulous two story Steampunk roombox vignette.

I have been sculpting in various clays since 1975.  Minature sculptures with furry coats for about 27 years.

Thank you!  This is my 3rd steampunked piece.  I just dump out the jar full of watch parts, spare jewelry items, and metal embellishments and piece together something as I go along.

LOL. Sounds like you had fun. I've got a few bags of jewelry findings. I sometimes do the same thing with my cats.

Pajutee In reply to The-Toy-Chest [2016-03-20 16:43:28 +0000 UTC]

Thank you -- yes, I sculpted and furred the dog first.  Then dressed it in hat, goggles & harness.  It can be displayed without the hat & goggles.

Hey, I really like your work - You've got to get it up on a serious artist portfolio, start submitting to galleries & shows, ie.  bit.ly/1R90dch

Pajutee In reply to objectivelycool [2016-03-20 16:41:40 +0000 UTC]

Thank you!  
This is a great site -- I had checked it out earlier.  My problem is that I am as busy as I want to be, and more exposure outside of the dollhouse miniatures community means more requests.  My niche market is dollhouse miniatures -- so, I am limited as to how many one-off sculpts I can produce, and simply cannot take on more commissions.

What a great piece!! It looks perfect! Look at this little hat and bag and straps, adorable!

Pajutee In reply to PantheraSculptures [2016-03-20 16:34:52 +0000 UTC]

Thanks so much!  The hat & saddlebag are also sculpted in clay.  It was much easier for me to make it this way (in 1:12 scale) than to fiddle with trying to find ultra thin leather to design, pattern, cut & glue together.

Pajutee In reply to Alanning2015 [2016-03-20 16:32:02 +0000 UTC]

Thanks -- I didn't glue anything in place on the dog -- so the hat and goggles can come off if the clients wishes to display it that way.

Thanks!  The fur had to be hand-dyed by mixing several colors and processing a small batch in the microwave.
