Custom Weimaraner Puppy Sparky / Showcase / Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

K Pawz GuestApr 23, 2008

Hi Everyone, I have been super busy lately with custom work that I am thouroughly enjoying doing, along with weekly eBay auctions, sorry I haven't been around to chat more.

Here is Sparky, a lifesize Weimaraner puppy that I created as a custom piece out of gorgeous Belgian plush that I purchased from Stephanie at Sassy Bears...I just love this fabric it is so soft and takes the airbrush color wonderfully. I am not super happy with the color of Sparky's eyes, but his new mom was so that is all that matters! I was trying to get an almost white blue, but after four attempts this is the closest I could achieve, but have it figured out now, go figure after the fact!

hugs,
Krista

Wow! Krista,
He's amazing! How in the WORLD did you get those wrinkles?! And his coloring is perfect. Congratulations!

Thanks Karen! I was amazed that his coloring came out so well, but I have started using dye na flow silk paints with my airbrush and am starting to figure things out!
His wrinkles kind of came naturally, I made him a bit bigger than needed and stuffed him less so when he moves all his wrinkles move too!

hugs,
Krista
