Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 7hDon't beat yourself up over it ;0; When things happen so suddenly like that, it's hard to think straight. I really hope your neighbor fixes the fence so this doesnt happen again. The fact the dog went into your house is scary. I had horrible neighbors with aggressive dogs before.. 010
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 7hYou are not. It is 100% the neighbor's fault. They failed to contain their dog. Irresponsible owners irk me so bad (this is coming from someone who owns dogs that hate other dogs). 110
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Omg I recently picked up supplies to try linocut as well! I'm excited to see what you choose to cut! 020

I was asked to contribute a pin design for Purin the Japanese Marten! I don't draw often, so this was fun! 15317
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Man, its even harder making art after work when your actual job is art too DBUSINNSIINS 010
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 07/10/2026When I used to work at a licensed designer toy company, I never had the energy to sculpt for myself when I got home 😭 110

Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 05/10/2026How can you see this and go "Yeah! This was totally made by a human on an art program and not AI!". There is NO way they can achieve this in an actual prototype and look that clean. 130
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 04/10/2026And they tried to argue it wasn't AI and it's all hand drawn and they always did this LMAO When you scroll back, NONE of their promotional images were remotely close. When caught, they tried to make excuses. 180

Our next steps are getting his elbows, patellas, and eyes checked so that we can meet the requirements to be OFA CHIC certified. Health testing is expensive but we take it so seriously in our kennel! 77910
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Ah! I'm honored you have been following our kennel! Also that's awesome you're in Ohio as well :D Maybe sometime you can meet our dogs! Yes, we're doing our best to bring more type and breed dogs that will honor Japan and not Westernize them. We retired dogs from our program because we are so picky. 030
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 29/09/2026He just turned 2 in May! Your Akita is so precious omg 🥺 110
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Thank you! Those words mean so much! Our goal is to bring more type to America. Yes, he is an import from Japan! Our next female will also be an import. 120
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 29/09/2026He's a huge momma's boy! We only had him for a few months, but he acts like he knew me forever ❤️ 120

Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Omg YOURE RIGHT I didnt realize I had to toggle that on! It should work now! 110
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Could be Palatal Tori if bottom jaw or possibly a Bone Spur is my guess. 110
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I dunno what con we will see each other again, so I can ship him to you! 🥺❤️ 110
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Ahhh collie? I love how you made the semi-pricked ears! 110
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 21/09/2026OH I looked at the website and they have a shipper to ship their products from the USA?! Ahhh!! 220
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 21/09/2026I've been eyeballing their compression gloves for so long! Darn USA tariffs 😭 210
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Mr Hobby Mr Surfacer is what I use and it comes in airbrush form. Super solid and sands super well. 120
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 19/09/2026From what I see, you manage to make a solid amount! And Yeah, I feel the same problem of selling out, so little to no stock could be carried over to the next con ahhh I feel the only way to help is to make keychains, stickers.etc on sculpting but drawing is hard 🤣 010
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Out of curiosity, how many figures do you usually make at a con? The most I ever was able to make was 100 😭 It is definitely tricky to so multiple cons as sculptors since we have to constantly make new stock by hand. 130
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Ahhh that means sooo much to me! Shape language and clear silhouette from multiple angles is a huge importance to me (Im constantly making sure it looks good any view). So thank you ahhh! 010
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Hi there! I used Monster Clay on this figure! I love how it holds shape and details. Only drawback is that you need to make a mold and cast a copy in resin. I also use Apoxie Sculpt! I used to use Sculpey Firm until recent batches got too soft for my liking. 110

Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Yeah exactly...She seems like such a sweet dog, too. I hate seeing any animal pass from cancer, but seeing another JAI with it especially breaks my heart.. 110
Rio - I Sculpt 🦷 @riosculptures.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Omg she was so young...My heart goes out to her owner. 110
