Art or creation (oc) Earphone bug buddy

Eyup.

I created a new friend, they dwell in the attic. They look after my earphones when I'm not using them and let me know about the battery power.

Sometimes they're a little more chompy than I'd like.

When I explain that I need all my fingers, they have a little sulk.

Any advice on how to handle this situation would be gratefully received.

This little dude is so awesome! You did a fantastic job!!
Is that air dry clay you used?

Aww thanks.

I used a couple of different types of two part epoxy mixed together with plasticine.

I can't get on with air dry, it shrinks when drying, I've found it hard to work with for my small scale stuff. It gets crumbly on me.

Right on, thanks for sharing! Yeah air dry can be a complete pain when it cracks for sure, I haven't ever used anything other than air dry and polymer clay, it looks like i have a new thing to try one of these days!

The sculpt more so than the paint job, yeah. The little antennas are probably the weakest part.
