A friend of mine likes the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland, so decided to make her a set of earrings out of FIMO.
The full fleshed version is unfortunately a bit heavy, but she wears the skeleton variation often. My inspiration was in fact the skeleton of a baby mouse I once found. It's about the same size (roughly 5-6cm long, 2cm wide) However, being that it should be the cheshire cat, it's got a wicked set of teeth to boot. :D
It wouldn't be the cheshire cat without the 'night-light effect'...

Kitty
I could make birthday presents all year round (if only I didn't need to work to finance the materials :]).
This little kitty took me about three hours to complete. He's about 8cm from top to tail and is made of FIMO.
Starting out...
Flourescent FIMO takes a lot of kneading to be pliable without crumbling...
Almost done...
After some detail work and baking, the pads, nose and ears become translucent.
Night Mode!
