Chilly the Hippocamp

Published:

Description

Everyone meet Chilly! His colors aren't based on anything in particular, I mostly just wanted to paint a silvery/pearlescent hippocamp. The white scale on his head is actually a real opal stone, cut just for him. It flashes green at just the right angle! There are also some super subtle reds in warmer light, but I didn't manage to catch them with the camera. (As a note, it's just the larger stone that's opal, the smaller bit below is pearly acrylic. This is about as small as I can go with my equipment, anything smaller might drive Crystal insane xD)

Chilly is FOR SALE here

Blank and custom casts sold here

Oh my gosh, when I was a little kid (like I mean 6 years old) I was obsessed with "sea stallions" and that's exactly how I tried to depict them (in scribbles) to make a "book" out of note cards. Only they had fins instead of hooves too. How inspiring to see your hippocamp. <3 What a beautiful representation that reminds me of childhood fantasies. :)
