This old satyr is in no mood to deal with young whippersnappers. "You kids -- Get off my lawn!"

Mean Old Goat is my first finished humanoid character sculpture -- probably the first of many. She was a lot of work, but also a lot of fun!

Polymer clay, Tibetan lamb hair, leather vest.

Mean Old Goat is available in my Etsy shop!

Haha, this is great! I probably shouldn’t laugh at her, but she’s just too funny with that priceless expression, not to mention the wild hair 1. This really is your first humanoid character sculpture? Wow, it sure looks professional! Lovely work, and congrats on the Mod’s Choice! 2

:-) Erin ´EireWolf´ Metcalf replies: "Oh, feel free to laugh at her; just don’t let her hear you! 1 You know, I didn’t notice I had a Mod’s choice until you said so. Awesome! Thanks so much for your comment!"

I’m sort off commenting on your first comment.... I think that they meant a character from a movie called Spirited Away, who’s name sounds like it’s spelled Yubabba!

This is soooo detailed, how ever did you do it? I especially love the eyes. Congrats on the mods choice!

:-) Erin ´EireWolf´ Metcalf replies: "Ah! I see now. I need to watch Spirited Away again; it’s been a while!

Thank you so much (and sorry for the very late reply)! 1 "

Wonderful! It’s so lifelike one expects her to move and speak any moment now... Such incredible detail!

:-) Erin ´EireWolf´ Metcalf replies: "Thank you! "

You should. Hayao Miyazaki is a genius!!

lol, it’s ok... 12

:-) Erin ´EireWolf´ Metcalf replies: "I know he is! He’s my favorite anime artist. I love Totoro and Kiki’s Delivery Service! When I saw Spirited Away the first time, I thought I was having a really bizarre dream. 1"
8 Jun 2009:-) Selene Moonshadow Tsuki
lol... Spirited Away is pretty bizarre... have you seen any others, like Nausicaa?

:-) Erin ´EireWolf´ Metcalf replies: "Yes! I love Nausicaa. I want to sculpt an ohm one of these days. 1 I like Howl’s Moving Castle, Laputa, and Princess Mononoke too. "

*Ahem* "Laputa" is called Castle in the Sky. 12
They are alll soooooo good!

So much detail on such a small face, all the cracks and wrinkles are great. I’m assuming that she is raw clay (no paint) Its a really good skin tone for her. Skin color is still my biggest adversary in sculpting 10
