XXIII. The Rat

Back and making some little sculptures! This one tries something new, the addition of some blacksmith forge work for the tail. The rat was simple enough, I intended kind of a fat triangular shape with a little mouse head. The tail, not so easy as I’m still getting the hang of metalwork. I had hoped for a thicker tail, but I think it worked out okay with the thin tail and the big fat body. Overall I like the combination- 4 out of 5, because the tail should be fatter!

Incidentally, I am told that his name is Muchaco.
