Description I sculpted this tiny Sally (under 2") as a mockup model for a larger Sally I've been making (and feeling sort of uncertain about). The goal was to make her really quickly as sort of a "practice run" on the larger, more detailed model.

Seems like it worked out okay.

Super Sculpey, Acrylic paint, varnish. Took about 2 hours to make, which is kinda crazy.

My kitties are taller than her. <3

Sally Acorn (c) SEGA? Archie? DIC?

I'm going away for the weekend so I won't be able to reply to comments until Monday-ish. Dialup. X_x

I might try doing that, it's just hard because they can be time consuming to make! I have a Bunnie in progress somewhere that I should really finish. Maybe next time I go to a convention I'll try to make all the Freedom Fighters.

I've made some $$ off my stuff, just I'm usually selling originals rather than fanart. Fanart is great 'cause it draws attention, though, even if people just look!

Yep. First a small study of her, and then a larger figure. They both needed to be figure-ized.

This is cute and very promising! Can't wait to see the big one! Funny, lately I've been thinking about how it would be fun to make a model of Sally too... Maybe I will someday.

This is impressive! If the mockup looks this good, then the full sized version is going to be epic!

kaikaku In reply to RandomSpyder [2009-03-23 15:24:32 +0000 UTC]

I sure hope so. I was kinda surprised by how well this came out, when you work larger it's easier for stuff to feel all lumpy if you aren't careful. On the other hand painting detail becomes easier on bigger pieces... ^_^

Oh my gosh --once I can pay you for it, I'd love it if you did Soraya for me. You're improving so much! I can't wait to see how Laser turns out.

kaikaku In reply to MarinaNeira [2009-03-23 01:13:40 +0000 UTC]

I would love to do a Soraya for you! I'm sorry Laser has taken so long, he is almost done at this time (and he's actually fairly large compared to this Sally). I attribute most of my improvement to working on Laser! It really is incredibly useful to try tackling other people's characters. Laser kinda forced me to learn a bunch of things that I'd have otherwise put off. Hopefully I'll start picking up the pace now... I really seem to be becoming faster at the modeling part thank goodness!

Thanks for not pokey-sticking me.

MarinaNeira In reply to kaikaku [2009-03-23 01:29:42 +0000 UTC]

Aww, I'd never! You know, in a month or so hopefully I won't be so broke (but why, it's a secret. The news will explode on my journal soon enough.) Anyway, as things get better and better for me, I would like to commission you to do all my characters. With no hurry, you know. We can do it the way I do my freelance work: I'll pay you a deposit, and when you finish, I'll give you the rest. sound good?

Anyway, we still have to wait a little. But when the time comes, if you're game, I'd love for you to sculpt them.

kaikaku In reply to MarinaNeira [2009-04-12 07:51:20 +0000 UTC]

I would LOVE to do commission work for you. I'd really love to have an excuse to work on more of your characters. I am giddy about your most recent uploads, and I hope hope HOPE good things are coming your way soon! Your stuff's been blowing me away and I want to see you published or something!

Sorry I've been so distant, I literally was sick for almost 2 weeks and I'm still recovering! Things have been a bit tough! ;
