I made this for Anthrocon but never got the chance to photograph it and upload it. I was working literally up to the last minute. I did most of it in the two days before we left for the con.
It didn't sell, but I'm rather glad, because I wanted to get some pictures and also possibly work on it some more. Also, I didn't get to spend much time with it before I handed it over to a new owner :P
I think expect more sculpture in the future. It's entertaining to me and a nice break from illus. stuff.

This is amazing. Love the details of the feathers and hands. Awesome work! :3
Ooh! This is gorgeous! Amazing detail in those feathers and I love the colors. And he's got goggles and that's a plus. XD Goggle do make everything cooler. ^^; He's very adorable! Also I really love those little details in the cuffs (not sure what they are..^^;) that he's wearing. :D This is making me want to dabble in sculpture work even more than I already wanted to...:D ^^;
How big is this may I ask?

sculpture is really fun so long as you don't let the mistakes get you down. I am sort of a lazy perfectionist (bad combination) so I have trouble with highly detailed projects like this where a lot can go wrong. But I stuck with it because I wanted to put it in the AC art show.
It is 7 by 11 inch.

I'm a bit of a lazy perfectionist too...more leaning towards the lazy side. XD My perfectionism only really shows through when I'm doing realism and sketches. But I wouldn't be able to tell if you have trouble with highly detailed project 'cause I see almost everything you make as highly detailed. ^^;
Me and sculpture haven't really gotten along though due to my art teacher in high school. He always tried to force project relating to Picasso on me and I just sorta started hating sculpture after that. ^^; That and clay makes my hands feel weird...But I do want to try it again.

Absolutely breath taking like all of your work. I just love him. <3
beautiful detail in both the sculpt and the paint job! very impressive.
You need to stop being so talented. This is ridiculous. :D
... how much were you trying to sell it for?

Oh, $100. And I hear some people were very interested, but just couldn't spare the cash. But that's Ok :3 I gave it to a friend.

That's always my situation! :P

I hope he appreciates it - I'm amazed it didn't sell, especially when people spend more on less at those cons.
So beautiful! How long did it take you to make this, hon? It looks sooo amazingly well crafted!!!!!
This little fellow totally deserves an ornithopter to fly around in x3
Sculpture commissions. Please tell me you do them.
I'd very happily have paid that particular sculpture's asking price for that quality - that paint job is to DIE for.

You're pretty amazing with this sculpture stuff. That's a really cool one!
You'd better tie a rope to its tail, cause it's about to fly away. Looks pretty awesome! :)
We're going to have to talk ;> Cause I've been looking for someone to make Blackie as a figure even for myself..
Its very lovely honestly didn't know you where that good with this kinda thing.

Wow... note to self: save up money, find another Hibs dromaeo-sculpture, and snatch it up pronto. $100 would have been WELL worth it :) I thought this was a painting done on a photograph until I realized that it was an actual sculpture - the detail and paint is just amazing.
Everything about this is amazingly beautiful. I can't believe it didn't sell for that price. :o
Has someone snatched it up since then, or do you still own it?

I can't imagine this not selling D: God, if I had the money, I totally would have gone for it!
Very cool. He looks like he should have some sort of gyrocoptor or airship to piolet.
Really nice looking.. feathery.. ~_~
On a sidenote, I could've sworn it was a computer generated 3D model until I looked at the closeup at the lower right. Something about the colors or something had me fooled. 0.o
