Working on my wolfs head in between

 

I need a bit of variety and so i took my wolfs head off the shelf and the fur out of the cupboard and cut the parts together.

At first i was thinking i make him a dogsbody, but as this wish didn’t come true now for 3 month, it was time to change my mind.

A witch head – a huge problem

Santa is born

 

today i worked on my Santa’s clothing.
first i thought i should make pictures in his boots and pants … but i got carried away, and now he is all dressed, bearded and hatted :D

The little guy is 20 cm tall, got blue felted eyes and wears no underwear.

I still need to get rid of all the fussy hairs all over him – no finishing at all yet, but i do like the little man a lot already.

HO HO HO

Don’t you think he should hold a cup of grog ? I feel like he looks a little bit drunk :D
And the wonky eye doesn’t look so bad anymore.
