Arctic fox spook: WIP

Description

Arctic fox spook that will be for sale upon completion. I wanted to test something out upon a real skull prior to working upon a commission, hence this fluffer.

After waiting almost 2 weeks after ordering I gave the company a call and it turns out the gal never got the notice something had been sold. A little more wiggling around and 3 days later it arrived, but was not quite what I had ordered. Had paid about $30 extra for feet and, while the leg skins are super long, there are no feet on the pelt. I'm plenty irritated, but I won't return it. It's an arctic that is almost through its winter molt, tail and leg fur still thinner, black tip on the tail. It will have its usual long white Spook ears and it looks like I get the pleasure of seeing if I can sculpt feet. Gotta brush the body out to get the underfur matting out (minor) but soon enough I will have a white fluffy thing to work with!

It will be poseable, red LED eyes, articulated jaw as usual. :) Since it has a real skull the chances of it being able to support itself fully are extremely high. Looking to sell around $450 to cover materials cost and labor.

:: Disclaimer ::
I did not kill nor did I have these animals killed for any purpose. I do not know the history of either piece, but I do know that they were killed within the US. No damage to the pelt to show any mistreatment or suffering prior to death. Both animals (skull does not belong to the pelt) were wild.
