1st prize is a custom made papier mache houndie kindly donated and made by Karen (cageybush)

It'll be custom made to order for the winner, whatever they like (within reason) - range in size from around 6" to 12" and finished either with paper finish (newsprint), tissue paper finish (gives a slightly crinkled look), or can be painted. A rough coated 'hairy' type texture can be done for those who have shaggy type doglets! All are varnished with 2 coats of clear satin varnish. They're made by layering strips of paper, each layer has to dry before the next goes on, so they can't be hurried and each takes around a month from start to completion. I've started having a go at other breeds as well as pointies - shown amongst this selection is a dachshund, an English bull terrier and a JR ... so will have a go at most breeds ... although it might take longer than the norm if I need to experiment with achieving difficult coat textures


Here's some examples of Karens work biggrin.gif





2nd and 3rd prizes will share the contents of the box of biccies smile.gif


Any questions or have I remembered everything this time? lol.gif
