Description
This is "Aphelion" (named after the Tristania song), a white and silver male kirin.Aphelion is a ooak (one of a kind) hand made unicorn or kirin sculpture. He was made entirely from scratch from polymer clay over a wire and tin foil armature. He is about 11 inches long fron front hoof to the tip of the tail, and about 8 inches from the ground to the tip of his antler.
I haven't made a lying down horse or anything in ages. It was difficult but I love sculptures in lying down poses, I would make tons if it wasn't so hard. Ah well, practise practise. I had intended to make a white furry kirin for a few months now, so it's nice to have him done.
His eyes are "rain" coloured 5mm equine pupil eyes from Dreaming Tree Studio (they are inset and made of resin). The hair is cashmere goat fur, which I had never used before. I enjoyed making the antlers especially, you will see more of them in the future!
Aphelion is on ebay right now! The auction starts at $0.99 with free shipping. Please check it out! [link]

I hope you like him!

This angle really showcases his eyes which peek out just enough to give him a rather sage appearance.
Lucky person who won him.

Yeah I'd say after you look at your card bill and you have spent $200.00 in a week. lmao

I do it when I'm upset or in a bad mood. A little ebaying to make myself feel better. Then $350 is gone in a day... bit crazy.

I was just thinking of making an intricate horse head stall with a horn on it. Wonder if I could pull it off. hmm...
