Everyone enjoys aquatic life forms.
Here are two you may be familiar with.
If not, feel free to get acquainted.
Here are the finished clay sculpts.
Final resin versions will be revealed very soon.

We are shallow. We are deep.

Or see the "frustrating grainy teaser version here."

Though it be cold, I wear no clothes,
The frost and snow I never fear;
I value neither shoes nor hose,
And yet I wander far and near:
My diet is forever good,
I drink no cider, port, nor sack,
What Providence doth send for food,
I neither buy, nor sell, nor lack.

They are minis, I'll get an exact measurement once the final product arrives.

These are sweet, especially if they are mini's. The fish lookin dude is my favorite of the two.

Yeah, I really like how the stylized Deep One turned out. I like Kappas plenty, but am not a real big Lovecraft nut - but they go pretty well together.

I'd love to get one of the Sunguts Suiko toys, preferably the one on all fours, for this Kappa to have his arm around :lol:

That would be funny. You think they are roughly the same size? When do you get to see them in person?

It's hard to judge against a Suiko mini, because I have not seen one in person for about 2 years :x

Originally hoped the initial batch would be in by the end of the month, but it's pushed back to early/mid July.
When they arrive, I'll get some pictures of them with some more well-known toys so their size can be judged better.

For the first batch there will remain a couple unpainted, a few painted by Fiber Eating Dragon, and one or two sets painted by redhanded. Personally I really like them unpainted.

Unpainted looks great. Even with no paint you can really see all the details. Clear (any color) Black and GID are my votes. Any info on a release?

Someone will be carrying them around in their backpack at SDCC :lol: for promotional use only of course.
Once the vacation dust has settled, they should make it onto Fiber Eating Dragon's Big Cartel site. Painted progress photo coming soon!

Yep! There is a Facebook page for photos and updates, as well as a Big Cartel store.

I was told the painted versions would be up on the BC listings, but apparently someone is slacking. I'll make sure it's ammended as soon as possible.

FWIW, I am just loosely tied to the operation. A friend of mine is the actual sculpting / painting / selling entity that is F.E.D.

Annnnnd for good measure, I thought I'd share this with anyone who's not Facebook user following the page.
