This is a custom painted casting made from my original sculpture, produced by Windstone Editions.I have been experimenting with new colors for these cats. I have airbrushed the  robes on this guy with metallic flame colors,  his fur with matte grey acrylics, and I decorated the celtic pattern knotwork on his sleeves with a metallic gold pen. He has yellow glass eyes and he holds a lead crystal globe in his paw. I know... pretty cliche,'  but  that's the way wizard cats are.

It is always great to see new pieces by you! Great color choices, and I really love the detail work! I love how you were able to suggest motion with how his sleeves are curved to the side. Wonderful! Congrats on the well deserved MC!

I really love this, and I love how the hat is almost too big for him, as that gives it a lot of character. Stop by my shop if he ever needs a staff! 2 jk

That’s my cat! Mrs. Meow Meow! I knew she was up to something!

I love the details on this. Do you etch the chains in after it is baked? So much detail. Fab!

:-) Melody Pena replies: "The chain (and knot work design around the sleeves) was hand carved on the gypsum original. This sculpture is a cast gypsum ( plaster) reproduction of that original.
There was no baking involved in this one, but I do sometimes work in polymer clay that requires baking. I prefer to carve plaster!

Sorry it took me so long to answer. I didn’t see this comment.
Thank you for the question!"

Wow! Look at the details and the colors. The cat looks so real, right down to the pads on his paws. Excellent sculpture.
