Ajax by Beetlecat Originals

Ajax

Beetlecat Originals

This was largely an artistic liberty commission. The patterns/markings are very stylized (as per my usual) but still read very well as 'fennec' imo. The eyes have a thin band of green which works very nicely with the brown.

The ears are foam with support structures in the tips and along the sides. The eyes are glass. The nose is resin.

I hand-sculpted the teeth from A+B putty. I normally cast them from resin but I don't have any molds made yet for a jaw this small. The tongue is fleece.

Here is a WIP from when I placed the sewn (but as yet unglued) 'mask' of face fur onto the foam & resin head: http://beetlefursuits.tumblr.com/po.....all-teaser-for

There was a mishap during furring and I ended up having to replace a section at the top of the muzzle, between the eyes. A straight patch job on the face is very difficult to blend so I decided to replace it with yellow and give him that diamond shape there :D

I've uploaded a video of the jaw movement here: http://youtu.be/IuljmG0OSb4

And a video of the tail movement here: http://youtu.be/1ZEQGWuPQZg
