I’m excited to show you my finished Hob sculpt! A hob is a type of small household spirit found in the north and midlands of England, but especially on the Anglo-Scottish border. They are said to work in farmyards and thus could be helpful; however, if offended they could become nuisances. 🌿

Some progress on my next marionette/puppet. This ones gonna be a Moth Fae/Elf. 🌿

I tried to get some photos of my new elf on Sunday but the weather was awful so it was a struggle. I did manage to get this cool missed shot though which works as a sneak peek or inadvertent cryptid photography ✨

Last set of compositions finished (15!) The next time I will post anything related to this project will be finished work. 🪄 The posts will be in a specific order (not the order I completed the comps), but my goal is to finish all of them by the end of the year. 👻🦑🦅

Happy New Year, wishing you all good stuff for the year ahead 🌿
