The World Beyond the Gears

I finished another Pocket Watch with a Steampunk Myxie inside. This pocket watch lost the glass on the front, but I didn’t let that stop me…having no glass made it fun to make little hands gripping the sides of the metal and a small face peeking out. :)

Unlike my previous Pocket Watch Myxie, this one is not Trapped inside, rather she enjoys the comfort of her Pocket Watch Home. Occasionally she sticks her head out of the glassless window to peer out at the world beyond the gears. :D

Planning to make one or two more fun pocket watches this month and then I might move on to some other sculpting ideas I have tucked away in my mind. Keep checking my blog for updates!

To trap a Myxie...

Really excited about how my newest Steampunk Pocket Watch came out. It is so much harder to do a face when you are trying to make it flat, whilst still appearing 3D. I had to re-do her head about 3 times just to get it to fit inside the Pocket Watch. But I think she turned out really cute...and a bit worried, from her expression. :P

Myxies can bring you good luck but catching one is difficult, they are fast and clever. But as "Luck" would have it, this little Steampunk Myxie got trapped inside an old pocket watch, while trying to collect gears for her small gadgets. The wearer will have her safely near them, bringing them good luck all the time. Be sure you don't let her out, or she will be off, taking your luck with her. :)

THE DREADED CLOCTOPUS!!!

Decided I would work on a few more Steampunk Pocket Watches this month. I did a couple of little Steampunk Dragons in hollowed out Pocket Watches last year and they seemed to be a big hit so this time I am doing Steampunk Animal Myxie Pals! So far I only have two, an octopus and a seahorse, but they turned out really good. Next in the lineup will be a dragonfly and maybe a crab :)

I have also been adding my newest Prints to my Etsy store. Individually wrapped and matted 8x10s and 5x7 Prints.
