Artist commentaryHaze is a husky character of my own creation, made for a local event run by the Humane Society called "Paws In Motion." A pet friendly walk-a-thon.Myself (as Haze) along with the Paw Patrol (local street character group) went to entertain the children and adults who were participating. Finished sometime in June/July of 2007. So far she's been very well received by every event I've taken her to. ^_^ Now the nitty-gritty: I made her myself, with only the guidance of the wonderful internet tutorials available. This is the first full suit I've done, though it is the 3rd head I've ever built. Everything is sewn by machine, nose and teeth are made from latex. Paws are stuff for extra poof, and the paw pads are sewn vinyl, also padded. The eyes are plastic with buckram. The tail is foam core, it straps on seperatly. She even has a tag with her name on it, done in white and blue (I made it from shrinky dinks. I plan to redo it sometime in something more durable) and the collar was actually a lucky find at the Paws In Motion event. $15.00 for a dog collar is a little silly, but it was the perfect colour, and the proceeds help the humane society anyways. ;) Please forgive the silly text. I was having fun with Photoshop. ...I am still so obsessed with that purple fur...^^; |
