Red Foxes


I repainted some fox figurines inspired by the logo of a well beloved and nostalgic  candy brand that has been around for as long as I can remember. Turns out that they have been around since 1895 when the recipe was invented! The name of the sweets is Pihlaja which is the Finnish word for Sorbus/mountain-ash/rowan trees and berries. However, the unofficial name for them is "fox candy" because of the recognizable logo. The candy itself is basically just marmalade with coats of sugar, nothing too fancy.

I chose  three fox  figures I had around for this project, a tiny "made in china" fox, a bigger fox that is actually a money bank and a small keychain fox of the same brand as the big one. It was really hard to get the eyes right on the smaller ones, therefore out of the end results, I like the big one most because that's where the eyes turned out as I planned.
