KRISTY'S MINI MENAGERIE

Hello and welcome, anybody who may come across this little blog of mine! I've just started this blog, and plan on focusing on miniatures, animals, and miniature animals. However, I'm also hoping it can be a fun place to talk about just about anything. We'll see.........

Polar Bear enjoying a cool, refreshing snow cone

Here you go Carolyn, a baby polar bear! LOL I made him a blue snow cone, which used to be my favorite flavor as a kid (what the heck was that flavor anyway??) Unfortunately I couldn't get my camera to capture the sparkly look of the ice :(

Mutt or Purebred?

BEFORE

AFTER


I don't make mini dogs normally and don't think I ever made one that was furred, so this was something new for me. Here's some before the fur and after the fur pics. I had a lot of fun, but this little girl was supposed to be a particular breed, and I think she came out looking more like a mutt of some kind. CAN YOU GUESS WHAT BREED SHE IS? (and for the few of you who already know what kind of dog she's supposed to be, NO HINTS, LOL)

Bath Time for Kitty





This kitty needed a bath. He's not looking real happy about it however, even though I made him a little rubber ducky to play with. I wanted to play with my epoxy resin and always thought cats are so adorable when they are all wet and miserable. I had to do quite a bit of experimenting before finishing this one as far as figuring a way to make the cat's fur look wet and figuring out how to make the water look soapy. Such messes I made in the process (but such fun too) :) I do wish I had made the cat sculpt skinnier to begin with, but live and learn.

Last Raccoon...Hooorayyyyyy!!!



FINALLY!!! I've finished the last commissioned raccoon (for now anyway). I've got so many other things I want to make, and I'm free at last to make what I want. It's a great feeling!!

The Graduate


I took a break from the raccoon making (I swear I was starting to see them in my sleep), and made this little mouse for my Aunt (to be a gift for her granddaughter who's graduating from High School in June). She's going to insist on paying me - I HATE that!!! I don't like taking money from relatives, I'd much rather it just be a gift. I'm thinking I'll just mail it with an invoice for $1.00 LOL
