Description Sculpture commission sculpted for of their late pet conure Maui, it's always a great honor if you get asked to make a piece to honor a dear pet that is no longer among us, he was a true delight to sculpt and paint.
It's so fantastic to see how much personality a little bird can have
He measures about 4 inch from chest to bum.

I used acrylic inks,pastel powder and mica powder to paint this fellow, he was sculpted from a mix of super and sculpey firm.Β

I know it's been almost two years, but he sits in my bedroom tv stand and I still love to see him every day. It means a lot that you put so much time and effort into helping me honor my little guy <3

What do you take for making a bird like this?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

mangakasan In reply to Silleren [2017-01-09 16:54:24 +0000 UTC]

i sculpt them from polymer clay over a aluminum wired/foil frame, the eyes i cast out of clear resin and i paint them with acrylics, grinded pastels and mica after it is baked and cured.

mangakasan In reply to Silleren [2017-01-10 20:20:03 +0000 UTC]

depends each piece is different and some require more time then others so prices vary and are hardly ever the same

Awww You are true gold and so kind~
I always appreciated you for being that way.

I never forgot about that day I was so happy because you were interested in an AT and you asked me. Even though I've never been a piece of how good you were, I became the happiest person in the world because of any reason. It's been a while and I haven't been drawing as muh as I would have liked but I always thought about it. I would like to do a good piece as it was important to me. Anytime I think I'm ready to really deal with that, but I don't know when would it be.

And don't worry, I just want to do this beause of myself. If I manage to draw something great and fine to you anytime, I won't want you to feel you have to give me something in return. Oh, no I won't think this is that AT anymore but something I would just like to do.

Haha well if you cook up something i'd be happy to do something small in return and don't worry and stress yourself about being perfect with your art, just have fun doing it, then everything will be fine, to enjoy making your art is the most important thing!
