Is there any interest here...

For my dog sculptures? I've got a lot of free time on my hands, so I've been making a lot of sculptures lately.

I've been thinking I could do this as a job though, and I know I'd rather ask here first, before putting it out there and then getting laughed at for thinking I'm good enough to sell my, I guess it is artwork.

So here's a few examples of what I've made/am making.









Sooo yeah. I sold the GSD one to a neighbor, and he loved it.

I can even do fantasy



This one is going to be Maxfox's Blue Tang fox. Just waiting to be painted.


Anyway, am I off base? Is this something you would buy/like to have?

I personally would be interested. What type of price range were you thinking? Are you planning on making them all around the same size or thinking about adding different sized sculptures? I think they are neat and I would honestly love to have one of each of my dogs.

I think they are adorable! And without a doubt artwork!!!

What kind of price range are you considering?

EDIT: posting with amber, lol

I would be!
I am always looking for interesting knick knacks to have. My apartment is sadly pretty bare and I love little interesting things

Depending on the price I'd love an Izzie sculpture =)

I can do different sizes for sure. They take around four to six hours to complete now that I've got a rhythm down. As for price range that's really the one thing I've no idea about. The painting is what takes forever, depending on the dog, but I think a simpler dog, with regular colors would be less time.

Maybe a three by four inch one would be about 50 dollars, depending on the complexity of the dog in question. They're handpainted obviously, and I work off of photos pretty much. A dog like the Ozzy dog takes far far longer to paint because of the markings, but say a Dobe, or a GSD would take much less time.

But the bigger they are, the longer they take to complete, obviously. So I'd say 45 to 50 dollars as a base price.

Mandy, I haven't done a smushed face dog yet lol, but I'd be willing to give it a go.

I'd like to see a little more painted ones, but I think I would also be interested. I like the style of how you do them. I think you could make some money selling them out of an eBay store or something. They're definitely quirky and I enjoy seeing new ones you've made.

Do I really have to answer this? Yes When I have fun money again.. xD

[CharlieDog]

I'm finishing up two of them tonight hopefully, so I should be able to show you the difference in them painted vs unpainted by tomorrow.

That base price seems more than reasonable to me. I'd definitely be interested in one of each dog though I'd have to have you do one dog at a time since I couldn't afford to do them all at once.
