Crafty Fox

~Sculpted textures and unusual methods.~

Using some of my black bear fur to recreate a fox chin. Included some detail shots of the tearing/stretchy flesh effect on the sides of the mouth (I’m spending a lot of time on these areas).

Next comes ears, lower jaw fur, and curling the whiskers!

Hard to believe this was just a lowly, tattered, discarded fox fur “scrap”; virtually EVERYTHING here has been sculpted to work around the damage and bring the face back-to-life. The nose, jaws, skull/head, eyes, tongue, and of course teeth were all sculpted with special polymer and epoxy clay then painted with acrylics …*whew*!

Here’s some humble beginning shots…
