Khuno : Grass Dinosaur

Description

Khuno is the brother of Avero. They both started at the same time, as humble wire and epoxy armatures, then slowly, slowly started to evolve completely differently.

Avero took the the skies and opened his heart to all, but Khuno remained on the ground, hiding in the leaves and being a bit of a trickster. He refuses to tell anyone how he got that scar on his face, but remains lighthearted nonetheless.

--

So here is Khuno, who started out as a dragon, turned into a lizard, then Quezalcoatl, had a brief stint as a Tauntaun, then settled on being himself. Quite the shapeshifter. He's my first doll on two legs! And can stand quite proudly too.

He measures 7.5" from foot to head, about the same from tail to paw and 2" from shoulder to shoulder.

He's made in the same way I make all my dolls, a process which I have made a tutorial on if you are really curious! You can see it here: [link]

The materials are fimo, faux fur, acrylic paint, varnish, modelling wire, floral tape, epoxy putty, aluminium tubes, copper jewellers wire, hot glue, araldite, super glue, toothpicks, acrylic paint, gold leaf and peacock herl.
The gold leaf in his eyes was put on piece by piece with a tiny paintbrush by yours truly! His eyes are balls of fimo this time, not pins. A new experiment - one that turned out pretty well, too.

He is also for sale for £40. See my etsy for details and more photos!: [link]

Thanks for looking!
