Hi Everyone here is a custom Chihuahua I just finished...he was designed to emphasize some of this dogs key features in a cartoonish sort of way, he had to have oversize bulgy eyes with squinty eyelids, and long dager like claws. He also had to be lifesize, but with floppy legs and body (no armature just steel shot and poly pellets for posing with),which for me was a challenge since I am so used to working smaller these days.

I am happy though with the results, and his new mommy is over the moon with how her sweet Sancho has turned out.

hugs,
Krista

Krista, you absolutely 'NAIL' these dogs! No pun intended!!
There is no one doing short-haired dogs that can replicate them like you, bar NONE.
One could say instead that you duplicate them.
Just think: no barking, no walkies, no feeding, no grooming.. it will live forever.. endless cuddles ... hmmm. ......
What's the downside here???

You GO, girl!!

I must admit, I'm not a fan of this sort of dogs, but your creation is really well done and realistic - although his eyes make me feel a little uncomfortable lol

LOL he is awesome, Krista. He totally embodies every feature that stands out to me with Chihuahuas.... I am loving his bulgy grouchy eyes, even if I personally couldn't sleep with him staring at me all night... bear_tongue GREAT job on this little muchacho.... bear_happy

Thank you so much!! His eyes were the toughest part, trying to find just the right look and size to emphasize them

You did a fantastic job with his eyes! He looks JUST like the grouchy chihuahua that lives down the street! LOL I say that tongue-in-cheek, because I really think chihuahuas look grouchy when their eyes are like that... bear_tongue
