Description I always think you should do your best, but I don't think you should wait to do something until you know everything or have the best skills. It's best to just jump right in and mess up, but learn a lot. Oh, sharky buddy, how you have pained me! After priming it, I (and my awesome roomie) scraped ALL THE PAINT BACK OFF because it looked terrible. And then I painted it again. But I learned a lot about paint and what you can (and can't) do with it.

This boyo took about 50 hours if I remember correctly. He is made of wire, tinfoil, super sculpey, epoxy putty, and apoxie sculpt. The base is made of a 10" nail, couple washers, plywood, apoxie sculpt, and tinfoil. He is 15.5" tall and entirely hand painted with acrylics. There are no molds of this sculpture; he is a one-of-a-kind original.

HE IS FOR SALE. I want to sell him in order to raise money for an airbrush (so I can continue to make cool sculptures!). I am asking around $300.00. Please note me if you are interested! Also, I AM OPEN FOR COMMISSIONS. Again, note me if you are interested.

This one is really really great and I would buy him but I don't have so much money! But I hope you get your money for the airbrush fast anyways .

He keeps watch over the desk realm, and has a penny whistle for a scepter.
