A holiday gift for my dear friend , who loves ratites more than any person I know.
His favorite bird is the cassowary. This is my first attempt at a bipedal sculpture. During baking he decided to fall off of his legs at the heel, so I repaired him with steel-reinforced epoxy putty (let's see him fall off his legs now!)....bionic bird.
The Hershey Kiss is in there for scale. The sculpting medium is Super Sculpey painted with acrylics.

Wow! That's wonderful! It really is astounding that you were able to put so much detail into such a small figure. From how much detail there was in the sculpture, I could've sworn that it was over a foot in height.
I really love that you've chosen an unusual subject matter to sculpt. Not too often I see birds, and ususally most of the birds that I see are just the small domesticated variety. I am seriously diggin' his face.
First off, everyone here at deviantART would like to say THANK YOU!!! We have received an overwhelming amount of enthusiasm for the launch of version 6 and believe that this has been our best-received launch to date.

The amount of fine detail for the small scale is quite impressive. I hope she likes it. : )

I wanted to rule the world once, but I was distracted by something sparkly.
If I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.

That's so awesome, Jade. And also, 'bionic bird' made me laugh really hard when I first read it in your journal.
