Description Here's the paint job on the llama that I sculpted recently.

Airbrush with acrylic ink and regular craft acrylic for detailing, over super sculpey firm. 8.5" tall.

Commission. Customer wanted to give a gift to her boyfriend who likes llamas and flutes, and this is what she and I decided to go with.

I had to take some liberties with llama anatomy (especially the neck and front legs), but I'm really happy with how it all turned out.

Unpainted sculpture is viewable here: [link]

Thanks! You're definitely not the first person to think that, believe me. I'm guessing it's the pose, since real llamas don't ever sit like this. I'll probably do a Kangaroo at some point, though, since they are one of my favorite animals. Glad you still like the piece, though!

Yeah, definately the pose and the fact the basic structure reflects a roo just so much, hehe. Anywho, yes, it's a very good piece and well done.

Thanks! The anatomy is actually not so perfect since I had to tweak the llama's body to make the pose work, but I'm glad you like it.

Where did you get your sculpey firm? I can only find regular sculpey in stores. :C The only place I can find it is the internet. If you could tell me the store name I'd appreciate it so much.

rgyoung In reply to Exploding-Zombies [2008-11-06 16:32:14 +0000 UTC]

I buy it in bulk online. I haven't been able to find it locally either, but some art supply stores apparently carry it--I think it just depends on where you're located.

rgyoung In reply to peep-is-magnetic [2008-05-02 04:40:15 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm... Banjo and flute... I think the band might need more depth. We should start looking for a llama percussionist. I think we'd be all set for radness then.

Thanks for the comment.
