I’m releasing a new cat, a lying down longhair with a big fluffy tail. She’s sculpted with tiny pawpads on her hind feet and a lot of fluff in her ears. Since she’s again based on my cat Hana, I’d prefer not to have a duplicate name in my gallery, so it’s time for…Name That Cat!

Name That Cat! – Use this submission form to send in up to five of your best suggestions for a kitty name! Names can be silly, fun, serious…sky’s the limit! Please only one entry per person. Winning name submitter will receive their choice of one FREE resin cat, any available design! Entry is free, click [HERE] to submit!

In addition, all preorders of the lying longhair cat will be entered into a drawing to receive one free additional cat of their choice. I will draw two winners from all preorders received between today and April 30th, or whenever the first shipment of finished cats has arrived, whichever is sooner. Click [HERE] to preorder your cat(s) today!

This is a cute design by the artist known as “Miu,” of his character Peaches in cute summer wear. Ironically we’re looking at probably a Winter 2010 arrival of this figure due to manufacturing times and all, but hey! What better time for a spot of color and thoughts of summer?

Preorders open, see [LINK]

In immediate upcoming work I’m moving back to the blank resins, with a couple of realistic animals NOT of the feline variety (and one kitty as well, heehee).

A big thank you to everyone I’ve met at the recent conventions, they’ve been fun and I’ve got a LOT of work ahead of me! Ack! Comic-Con is coming up and I’ll have some of my blanks (Cat Dancer, Calla, and the kitties), but sadly no La Breas. Well, hopefully next year there’ll be something new and fun for that convention!

Woohoo, that’s a lot of kitties! Also, as you might be able to see, there’s a whole bunch of Napoleons among them. That means yes, long-awaited preorders are being filled this weekend, and open ordering on Napoleon is now available! Kitkat and Hana have also been restocked as well.

To refresh, here’s a picture of all three of them together. From left to right, Hana, Kitkat, and Napoleon:

Napoleon is a hair bigger than the girls, but luckily I’m still able to keep them all priced the same. He is also going to be an open edition, though I reserve the right to close orders at any time.

Prices in 2010 are probably going up, but I’m opening a limited number of preorders at $25 plus shipping. Want to see more photos, or reserve copies for yourself? Clicky click!
