Altered from 19 1/2" x 31" to 18" x 28"  Also reworked the terrible symmetry on the head.


Clay work.


Skin prepped and ready for bondo ears.


Mounted. Will work the feet tomorrow when they aren't so wet.

Yes, it's under the skin. If you remove the skin there is a seam between the hair and the pad that is impossible to replicate accurately.

Hey Cole good looking cats! What eyes are you using in your cats. They look like a large pupil.

Thanks everyone for the compliments. The eyes are large pupil bobcat eyes by Tohickon, which I have only found at WASCO.
