Description A photo turn-around for Kaldr, the character/adoptable I'm currently auctioning off right now: www.furaffinity.net/view/15203…

This is the actual ornament which will go to the lucky winner of the auction. The winner will be able to use this turn-around of the sculpture for additional reference. I guess that's one of the plus sides to having a character in 3D, it's easy to see the markings for multiple angles!

Character Background:
Everyone meet Kaldr the Shisa! His life began in a remote mountain village which is centered around an active temple. The Shisa here are bred for one purpose- to guard and serve the temple and its dwellers. Unfortunately cold places make for harsh lives, and Kaldr was born with a personality which never quite fit with the qualities which temple life demanded, which surely meant a life on the streets. As fate would have it, a wandering hermit saved Kaldr from being abandoned at a young age. His "one person" and secretive personality serves him and the hermit well to this day. Each Shisa has their own unique energy signature which aids them in their duties, and is often seen near the creature in orb form. For Kaldr, ice has always been his specialty and shows up as a clear orb swirled with blue. In his younger days he would rely on his freezing claws to protect, but as he ages, a single glance from his icy blue eyes can stop those who would do harm in their tracks.

Shisa Ornament Info
Each Shisa measures about 2 inches tall and 2 inches wide. From sculpting, to casting, to hand painting, these pendants are all done by my own hand, so you can be sure that much love is poured into each of these unique critters. They're cast in a sturdy resin which is then hand painted in acrylic and pastel. Afterwords, they're sealed in a protective varnish and a ribbon best matching their colors is added for easy hanging, hopefully in a place where they they can be good guardian critters!
