The cheese and squeek of it all: Miniature Rodents

Good day!

Are you all being naughty, trickery, mini boys and girls? You know the Pumpkin King is always watching *wink*

I thought I would try to make the smallest most frustrating thing I could ever do on the planet, mice and rats.

I am going to just copy and paste what I wrote in Greenleaf about the creation process here.. as it still applies to how they are made:

"Yes they are handmade, all my mini's start out the same ,a tiny lump of polymer clay. ......then, you drop the lump on the floor and curse to the clouds.. then you pick it up and fix it and attempt to attach the ears, they stick to your fingers.. so you curse some more..
 
But after that bake your pinkish lump, and attach some fine cut fur with tweezers and glue.. till most of the fur is glued on your fingers but some is still on the mouse..
 And TADA! You have some meeses and a rat ;P 

 

Pretty much ;)

 

Ok some more detail, You start with a translucent mix of pink white.. we all have tons and tons of translucent clay..right?

 

Some of you might want to create the body and then twice bake for ears/tail legs.

 

After baking you might want to apply a bit of watered down rose color for the nose ears and hands just to bring a shadow to them.

 

Then you will painfully apply bits of glue and a fine flock of really trimmed down fluff, make sure to curse up a storm throughout this process as it will be mandatory *smirk*

 

As you can see the rat is slightly bigger, than the mice but he is going to be for close ups. A few mice in the SF build and one or two are taking a trip *hugzzzz*

 

Maybe some time..when I have some time..and quiet ..I will try a video on this, I haven't made a video in ages have I?

My daughter picked out some scrapbook paper so we stared to apply that to the Monster high dollhouse, and We did some simple cusions for the couch chair bed, so far.
