    I'm kind of excited about this one.

    From the SARS email..
    "This will be the first of many endeavors by Graves & Spoons.
    It's our baby- Sloth'n'Moth. I don't think we will get these done in time for SDCC. We may have an extra special treat for a few lucky clucks though.
    In the works are approximately 10 hand cast in diff colors (like the one pictured) as sort of a fund raiser slash special treat. Her arm has already been re-sculpted. To work better for the vinyl mold making process. So these ones will truly be some earlybird specials if we can get them done.
    Wish me luck on all the above."

    I really like the hanging feature. That will be a fun way to display something in my collection.
    The bubble tea is pretty funny :lol:

    this thing is great, the sheer absurdity of the drink cup really makes it for me. have no idea where i'd display her, but sounds like i'll have plenty time to figure it out.

    Woah!
    What's that she's cradling? A Slurpee?
    That is top notch.

    A Sloth, a Moth, and Bubble Tea - what's not to like?
    I just don't know that I'm going to rig something up for him to hang on. I do have a spiral staircase - that might work.
    Any photos of him sitting or standing on the ground? You know approx size?

    Thanks!

    The idea of having it not standing on its legs is fun.
    I don't like the texture and the colors. That said it will change, so is my mind on this.
    Clear vinyl & light paint application would be nice.

    I love bubble tea and I also love this sculpt. The little perched moth is a really fun idea.

    I think this is fantastic, our family has always loved sloths. Never thought of it as a vinyl but this sculpt really captures the personality of a sloth! Great work - count me in! :)

    so do you have to be a member of SARS to get ahold of this guy? because he fuckin rocks.

    I think you have to be SARS member to get the initial run of 10 unpainted in various colors. Not sure if they'll be resin or what.
    Then when the actual vinyl piece is made, it should be available to the public.

    Couldn't agree more, just want one too. This sculpt is so appealing unpainted. It's got some nice texture so I can't wait to see it painted.
