What do ya think? Once he is baked, I will add a bit of paint/shading for his mask. I even gave him a bone in his paws. LOL

Are you selling them? If so how much?
: Re: One clay dane done...
: zchic July 16, 2007, 02:26:00 AM
well...I will sell them...i was thinking somewhere around $15, The cats I did sold on e-bay for over $20...but that's because people get into bid wars. LOL What do you guys think? Is $15 reasonable, especially if I do custom ones...

: Gevaudan_Jo July 16, 2007, 02:45:47 AM
15 is VERY resonable. I have a few custom orders for u!!!! LMAO
my friend who makes them i think they were 12 bucks or something. and i put in two orders over a year ago, she still hasnt got around to making them!! ugh!
Anyway. the dane look AMAZING i cant wait to see him baked and shaded. aww. how totally cute! I love it.

Yes...$15 plus shipping... I should have said that. LOL I plan on trying a newfie and the other big furry guys. I think I could do Jack. I need a good face shot (you avater is fine) and then a body shot and maybe one from the back so I can see the pattern around the back of the neck etc.
Here is a Bull terrier I just started, I think he is cute so far...

You have an awesome talent.  Your stuff looks great!  I can't wait to see all the finished products.

: Ali July 16, 2007, 10:41:39 AM
Wow - those are too cool!! Very impressive!!! I love the detail!! Don't sell yourself short - maybe $15 plus shipping for BPO members ONLY, and everyone else should pay $20 plus S&H. Materials, time, effort, you know how it goes. A handcrafted, custom product that looks like that, you should definately make some bucks!! Awesome!!

: FXgirl July 17, 2007, 05:43:17 AM
Well, if you ask me, which you're not,  $15 is waaaaaay too cheap.  You're under selling yourself.  Really.  With the time it takes to sculpt, paint, and add in materials costs what are you making... $4 an hour?

I'm making a life size leonberger bust and sculpt mainly monsters/halloween masks so I know where you're coming from.  Most people don't understand or appreciate the amount of work that goes into something hand-made and unique.  Not pumped out by the thousands from a mold in China.

The dane you made has loads of character.  Looks awesome.  Good luck.  I hope you sell lots!  I'm sure I don't have to tell you dane lovers that you're getting a great deal!
: Re: One clay dane done...
: zchic July 17, 2007, 07:48:25 AM
ok...so since everyone thinks 15 is too cheap...I am going to charge $20 for 1 statue, and if you buy more than one then you get a price break at the $15 each (plus shipping) If anyone is interested in getting a statue, e-mail me at jodindylan@earthlink.net, and send me a close up of their face, and a full body shot. I will get to them one at a time. Also the dane I posted priginally in this thread is for sale if anyone wants it. otherwise I am putting him on e-bay. (he has a black mask now)

I am going to slowly but surely work my way through the breeds. LOL I think the fluffy ones will be harder to do...but I think I can pull them off. :)

: lins_saving_grace July 17, 2007, 08:05:02 PM
Because I'm sooooo computer savy and haven't a clue how to easily send pics via email.  Here are some shots of Jack.  It's my birthday and this is going to be my present to myself.


Let me know if you different angles.  I really like the pose you have the dane in in the one you posted.
