Sea Mink

Stumbled upon this nice sculpture of the extinct Sea Mink (Mustela macrodon):


Click pic, then click once more for a lovely enlargement


Less-pricey Sir Otter is also sweet, but even the littler ones are still way beyond my budget...

On the affordable side, there's http://www.honecksculptures.com/
Butch makes them himself and I've met him at numerous furry and sci-fi conventions. He uses the "lost wax" casting method so all details are retained from the wax original. He makes real and imaginary critters, cloak-clasps and garb thingies, crystal ball holders, etc.

http://www.loetvanderveen.com/ is definitely in the "high rent district" but I adored his sculptures when they were in a gallery near my job.
