Truffle

 
This is a special order chinchilla.
 
He has been created using a combination of fabulously soft Tissavel synthetic fabrics and ultrasuede (for the ears/pads).  He has been filled with polyfill and a bag of plastic pellets sits in his tummy for added weight.  He has cotterpin and hardboard jointed arms/legs and wire armature in his body/tail and all four limbs, including his individual fingers and toes. He has black glass eyes ringed with waxed cotton cord 'lids' and his nose and mouth have been created using perle cotton embroidery thread. His individually applied whiskers are made from horse hair.
 
Truffle has been extensively scissor sculpted and has been airbrush shaded for realism. He measures just under 8" in height.  Last but not least there is an Arcas Designs fabric tag sewn in under his tail.
