Description
I'd like to introduce you all to my latest creation, I've been working on this one for quite a while. He's my most complicated creation to date.He measures 10.5" from paw to ear tips and approximately 15" from from to back (not including his long tail). He has jointed back legs and wire armature in his neck/back and legs. I used all white fabrics to create him and airbrushed all the beautiful fur markings on by hand.
Clouded leopards are perhaps my most favourite of the big cats. It's such a shame that they are so endangered.
I really hope that you like Nimbus, there are lots more photos of him on my website if you'd like to see more of him.
He has found a new home to go to now.

Phew, well I lost count of how many hours went into his creation. Probably around 6 whole weeks of working on him full time. That's days, evenings and weekends too. I think I must be mad! lol

look, this isn't usually my thing, i make 3D jets and helicopters and the usual 'guy' stuff - but *that* is an excellent piece of work you've done there, and i had to stop in and say "well done" - Nimbus looks great, and you're very talented. much respect to you.

Hey there, how's it going? Bogged down with your studies at this time I should think.
Thank you so much for your kind words again.

I /JUST/ finished my school year, and I am trying to clean up my house before I go home for the summer. It just about killed my ability to do anything artistic, but I will be happy to start up again.
The leopard looks absolutely beautiful, and realistic in every degree, I wasn't sure what to make of him in the photo until I read your name under his picture.

I'm sure that you had very little spare time or energy for anything else but study. You can go wild now, lol.

I'm trying to get back into the groove. Unfortunately a mouse moved into my fabric stores in my inactivity and I have to get my Tissavels dry cleaned, and tossed the rest that got soiled. NASTY.

Ack no!! That's not good. I like mice but they'd better keep away from my fabric stash. Have you decided what to make next?

I have to finish a Toothless for a commission someone waited probably a decade for, and then I am making a jumping spider XD.

Cool! I can't wait to see the spider. I just started work today on the pattern for my first wolf species.

That's awesome. What species are you working on?

A Maned wolf, it's a bit like a fox on stilts. I've been studying my canine anatomy (you'd be able to tell me a bit about that I expect) and dithering over what pile length of fabric I should choose.

Oh neat! I think they are in their own family, rather than being a true wolf, but they are quite neat. I look forward to seeing the finished product!

This is adorable, i dont think i've ever seen a plushie that looks so alive. And the name is perfect for a clouded Leopard. I can honestly say i'm inspired.

Aww, thank you so much for your kind words. Sometimes finding a name for new creation is really difficult but Nimbus seemed to fit so perfectly for this leopard.

Yet again I am blown away by your talent. This is absolutely amazing. More than that, only I seem to lack the vocabulary.
