Millifiori Compression Octopus. We call it a Milliplode. #glassofig #cute (at Bling Squared)

We made this yesterday in tandem. Trying to push ourselves and gamble our techniques on some larger projects for upcoming shows. When the outcome is good its one of the best feelings in the world. When it fails it's the the exact opposite. #cute #octopus #glass #blingsquared #glassart #handmade #collection #torchwork #babyoctopus #popglass #popsurrealism #lowbrowartist #c2e2 #calgaryexpo #toys #glassofig #designertoys (at Bling Squared)

Cute Emo Rabbit holding an Otto octopus. In the story they find him at the bottom of a bowl of Ramen and decide to raise him. Sculpted for SDCC 2017.

We've been toying with the idea of changing Emo Rabbit's color from Ivory to Hazelnut. Ivory on the left is the classic look (with pink inner ear) and the right is hazel with an Ivory inner ear. Why change? The "veining" in the Ivory (see the closeup) can be distracting at times on the characters face and can sometimes even look like a crack to a buyer.
