Wooo, my first finished pieces of the new year, and they just happen to be of my all-time favorite Pokemon! :D

These two doggies were a commission for :iconrdario:. I was so excited for the opportunity to work on these guys, and I really am so pleased with how they came out. :) That Arcanine gave me quite some trouble with all her fluff, but I managed to get it to look alright, I think. It was so incredibly hard for me to have to send these two away, though. ;_; Especially that Growlithe, I wanted to keep her so badly! I hope they have a safe trip to their new owner.

You can see individual pictures here:


Arcanine is definitely my biggest Pokemon sculpture(or any sculpture for that matter), measuring in at 5.25” tall and 6” long. Growlithe measures 3.25” tall and 4.5” long. They are both sculpted from Super Sculpey/Sculpey Firm over a wire and foil armature, painted with acrylic paint and sealed with a matte finish.

Hehe, thanks so much! Well, short answer is that they are sculpted from polymer clay and hand painted with acrylics. If this link works, you can see the progression of Arcanine here: [link]

Here is a very old sculpture I did of a shiny Poochyena: [link]
I'd definitely love to do another sculpture of Poochyena, as well as Mightyena. They are also some of my favorite Pokemon. :D

Haha, well, I do take commissions and sell pieces at conventions from time to time. ;)
It really depends on the size and difficulty. For instance the Arcanine is pretty big and has a lot of detail, so that one took me several days worth of work. Smaller pieces can take just a few hours, though.
