Hi there fellows
I'd like to share with you this damn cool project I've sculpted lately.
It is the Leprechaun played by Warwick Davis for the 1992 movie.
Notice that's a commissioned piece and won't be produced as kit.
*traditional sculpture
*super sculpey and epoxi putty
*1 / 4 mini bust.
*limited to #1 of #1(one of a kind piece)
Hope you like it.
Thank you.

That's awesome Miguel, great sculpt!
Just out of curiosity, if it is one of a kind why have the seperate pieces with the seams, for shipping purposes to reduce damage?

Thank you Redwing!
a cold cast porcelain copy was included in the deal and that's the reason I had to breakdown the sculpture.
