The Nue is a creature from Japanese folklore. It is said to have the face of a monkey, the arms and legs of a tiger, the body of a raccoon dog and a tail made up of a living snake. They are fearsome creatures and usually bring misfortune and misery.
This is Bill the Nue. He grew up in Ohio so the tradition of being an unpleasant harbinger of doom is lost on him. Bill likes football and the occasional sip ( or two ) of hot sake. Bill’s tail looks a bit like a Western Hognose snake and makes bird noises.
This is a handmade, one of a kind piece of art. The face claws are an original sculpt cast in resin that is then hand painted. Each cast piece is sealed with clear coat. The body is a soft, non articulated floppy style stuffed with soft polyfill and plastic pellets to weight the butt for easy sitting. High quality thick faux fur body.
Bill’s necklace is made from quartz, citrine, Mexican fire opal, lu-tong , nyatoh and sandalwood beads.
This doll is 15″ tall from head to toe.
Every one of my dolls comes with a signed resin monster face medallion tag marking it as one of my one of a kind critters. These dolls are meant to be petted and cuddled a bit but please treat them with care. Wipe the face or paws with a slightly damp cloth to clean any scuffs or dust. They are not rated for young children!
You will also get some sweet werewolf stickers that are only given out with big orders and cant be purchased!
Once this doll is sold out, he is gone!
I do not take commissions for dolls or any other custom artwork.
