Baby house elf in polymer clay

I haven't sculpted for awhile so I thought I'd try my hand at something tiny and whimsical.  This baby house elf is about the size of a strawberry.

 He's not as realistic as my other polymer clay sculpts; I wanted him to be more cartoony.
 He has a wire armature connecting his head and torso, arms, and legs, and wow, was it a pain to sculpt over wire. 









 Here he is with my strawberry plants, in the bottom pot.  As you can see, he's about the size of the ripe red strawberry on top.
