Post Megaloceros Mossback
This is my first resin figure.
The Mossback is from the dense damp forests of the pacific northwest. The Mossback is primarily nocturnal, but is especially active at dusk and dawn. The Mossback moves across the forest floor quickly and almost silently. The Mossback feeds on many kinds of plants, but is primarily nourished through photosynthesis while sleeping through the day. While the Mossback appears to be a mammal, it also has many plant-like characteristics that make it hard to categorize. It is unclear how many are in existence today because the Mossback is a very shy and private creature that is rarely seen by the human eye

Here's a crappy shot for size comparison. Also shows the patch of faux moss that comes with the figure when you buy one.

I do like the green one, with it's broccoli back, but that 'winter' one is superb! I did think sea/water when I jus tsaw it, so maybe do one in similar watery colours, but with the back in greens/purples, like seaweed?

I could definitely do one with greens and blues to make it more underwater like.

Here's the original slug sculpt. Just took these pictures from my bed since I'm still waking up, but they should work at showing off the details better.

Looks like I forgot to post the picture of the final three summertime mossbacks.
So here's that..
Image


but the real reason I was posting was because I am currently giving away some old shirts I had made a while ago that I just found to anyone that buys a resin or whatever.

They look like this, and there are a couple other colors.

I can't wait to get this guy! :D
I really do like all of the color ways that you've made, and the one with the antlers/branches is really sweet! But the colors on the Pink Summertime Mossback really pop. I just had to get this one!

Great job on these sculpts 8)
