Jeff Littlejohn: from acccomplished full-sized sculptor to...budding miniaturist!

Jeff Littlejohn is the man who messaged me on ebay. He is a phenomenal sculptor (among other things) and his work, like the moveable dinosaurs, is in museums. You can certainly see why!! Good god!! He is very interested in making 1:12 scale miniatures, particularly animals. He is scary good, and I can't wait to see what he comes up with!! I'm always curious to see how full scale sculptors fare when they scale waaaaay down, but I have no doubt that Jeff will crank out astonishing pieces. In fact, Martha Puff took one look at his website and is already interested in writing an article on him, once he starts. Come on Jeff, let's see it!! No pressure or anything ;-).
