Miniature 1:12 Cat sculpture -- Mousetrap

Description

Can one build a better mousetrap??  This miniscule cat sculpture was created by hand using polymer clay over delicate wire support in the legs, neck and tail.  Its tail is gently pose-able.  This cat has just caught itself a little mouse (which is permanently hanging from its mouth).  Sad for the mouse, I suppose.  After curing the sculpt in the oven, it was painted in acrylics and a given an applied coat of natural alpaca & silks fibers and flock (flock is fiber that has been cut into a powder-fine consistency).  Tabby coat details were done in permanent fabric inks.  Other features include tiny paw pads, realistic pale green eyes, and individually set whiskers.  Shown with a real life Victor mousetrap for size reference >wink<

If that mousetrap were to be sprung, and those were real creatures, they would be just...OBLITERATED. Gruesomely. O_O The realism of the cat makes that horrifying to imagine.
