Hee, I love them! The big eyes are fantastic. Have you tried modeling with Fimo or bread dough clay? Because then you can keep them and they won't dry out and fall apart.

i haven't tried modelling with anything else. i found this piece of plasticine around the house and i used it a bunch of times. i use to make something, take a picture of it and then destroy it and make something again. i made about 15 "sculptures" with the same piece of play-doh  :-D

I really like the first one! Too bad you don't still have it. But along the lines of what Lunchy said, you should use Sculpey or Fimo and make a bunch. (So you can mail them to us and stuff. Wink wink nudge nudge.)

Man I used to love this stuff.
I would eat it.
In a somewhat ironic, post-modern modelling manner  8-)

The first one reminds me of that little hanging creature from the Flight of the Navigator.

...if anybody but me remembers that movie.

Awesome little guys you have there.
Ive never been able to make anything but a snake.

And my job involves dough...

I like them the first one made me laugh I thought it was funny. Very cool keep modeling them because they look great.

i like the little owl...erm... thing.

you should make them out of something that would stand up better.  in fact, make a little clay army.

Really cute! If the thought of using weird putty scares you a little (it does me) pasting a half dozen coats of PVA keeps it prety solid.
