Howdy, I've been tinkering with dupes and munnies and came up with a few new figures.

And a few work-in-progress pics:

Let me know what y'all think, suggestions are definitely welcome, or if you are interested in buying or trading for one, they are fun to make and I hope to get better at it eventually.

Thanks for looking,

sigh, can anyone help me get actual images in the post, rather than those icons?

Thanks,

Thanks, it looks like I also had to resize them so that they would appear. Photos bump!

Damn, the bone one is really adorable. I think you're doing a fantastic job with your customs so far. I think I'd like to see some variation with the textures. For example, the gold looks cool, but add some more flare and make it your own. Make your work recognisable. Keep it up. ;)

Thanks for the kind words, yeah I'm definitely slowing down and not trying to make a slick production piece right off the bat anymore, now that I have some brushes and paint pens I'll be adding details or marks or more colors. I've been muttering "patience, patience" for a few weeks now.

I am curious to hear more about the black one with the cape? Is there a story/theme? Looks cool!

Hmm, good question, honestly I hadnt been thinking of their stories or anything like that but now that they are taking on personalities they should have some sort of history. Theres been plenty of things to keep me occupied (like how to keep the mustache from being too heavy and pulling the figure over!) but I'll keep that in mind.

Thanks!

Howdy,

I really like the bear rug(?), great idea & can't wait to see where it goes.
