1.1
Babe is a one-of-a-kind miniature Shar Pei puppy measuring 5” long from nose to tail and 3.5” from the top of her head to her toes. Babe is created out of miniature bear Cashmere and is then hand shaded for realistic coloring. Each one of Babe’s wrinkles has been needle sculpted by hand. She features 10 mm black glass, open and close eyes, open and close mouth, and a one piece body design with a jointed head. Babe has an inner armature in each leg, spine and tail, which allows her to achieve many realistic poses. Babe has realistic baby puppy claws on each of her needle sculpted toes. She is weighted with steel shot for a nice hefty feel, and has been extensively needle and scissor sculpted to obtain her realistic features.
