Tibetan Guardian Lion Posable Art Doll

Description

Finally done! This guy was a real labor of love. I left my comfort zone and attempted a truly authentic asian infused style based off the guardian lions (foo dogs). This particular "type" is based off the tibetan version, who is a snow white lion with either a blue or turquoise mane. There are many foo's out there, but one thing I really felt was missing was one with actual curls like they should have, and I didn't think sculpting them all would really suit him, as it is his huge head is triple reinforced inside with wire to make sure he can pose and isn't top heavy. After a LOT of thought on what would work best I ordered a clown wig and had to dismantle and then reassemble it with a lot of time and love to make sure everything stays put. he also insisted on having "special eyes", I repainted them half a dozen times before trying gems and having him grin widely =D

Sold!
