The Art and Life of Elaine Garner. Mostly art, but some writing and Role Playing bits sneak in.

    Recycle McHowlerpants the Werewolf Bust / Statue - on sale soon!

    This is a sneak peak of what I’ve been working on.  I’ll take better pictures of him before he goes up for sale - good lighting and no flash.

    He’s looking over one shoulder, which doesn’t show up in pictures too well.

    In spite of being quite pet-able and fluffy, McHowlerpants isn’t a plushie or a toy.  He’s a one of a kind Polymere clay sculpture with fur, sacrificial teddy bear eyes, reclaimed / washed tin foil, and a used up candle holder inside of him.  Now you know where the “Recycle” part of his name came from.  The candle holder was used because it wouldn’t melt in the oven because it was glass.  Nobody will know it’s inside of him unless I mention it because it’s completely entombed in Sculpy.

    Next time I plan on doing his teeth separately and gluing them in.  They’ll be a lot cleaner and easier to deal with that way.

    Sadly, the camera didn’t do these justice.  Old camera.  Old vid card.  Old monitor which was set on 800x600.  By todays standards, these are horrible pictures.  These are all sold, but I was excited to find I still had some record of them.

    Last: Ral Partha Bridge of Sorrows Wyvern on a customized base

    Bottom: Grenadier Brass Dragon II (painted with non-metallic paints so it was various shades of yellow.  I had a hard time between the Brass, Bronze, and Gold.)

    Top: Grenadier Silver Dragon Series 2 (or 3.  It depends on the collector you ask.  I’m not going to go into that.  It’s not the Silver 1 and that’s enough.)  Done in non metallic paints so it was done in grey shades.

    Center: Grenadier Spectral Dragon II - Figuring out what to do with that things body is a challenge for everyone who paints it.

    Bottom: Grenadier White Dragon II

I think I’m done with this, unless something leaps out at me tomorrow that I want to fix.  Pending Brennacedria’s approval because it’s her character, Neria.  :)
This is the best hair I’ve done so far.
Done with Paint Shop Pro 9 and a mouse.  Because I don’t own a Tablet that works.  :P
