Pics to cheer me up

Starting with a couple pictures of my sweet boys, because not everyone likes rats and this should enable better "scrolling past".

Phineas: "Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today!"

Phineas and Ferb, professional cuddlebugs.


Hush, it totally makes me feel better for people to say how awesome the stuff I make is.

This turned out way cool. The griffin is now a teensy bit front-heavy, but still balances okay with its front legs spread a little wider. Here's a few more pictures: One, Two, Three, Four. The first two are mostly just for different angles, the second two are to help show how the mail is constructed/attached.


That's all I've got for now. Possibly more later, possibly not. My show is on :P

SUPER ADORABLE! Especially the rat-hammock picture; they look like a yin-yang, sans dots! :D

Whoo, I love the armoured griffin, too! Awesome colours, and the little maille jacket is so pretty and shiny. Is that 4-in-1? What gauge & ID?

That's exactly what prompted me to take the picture ;)

The colors were redsixwing's choice, and I continue to be blown away by how well they go together. Pretty sure it's 4-in-1, yeah. I'll have to ask Steve the other details; I'll be seeing him at a crafting party tomorrow, though, so it shouldn't be a problem :3b

1/4" ID and gauge 7.

Oh, wow - okay, that helps me put this into scale! That is a much larger griffin than I thought! Wow. Awesome work!
