"Allo" Worm from the Labyrinth

Awesome work guys. Wow, it's been a while but I'm glad to see all the pics.
My wife is still making these guys and she actually had a request to make the wife as well to be a wedding cake topper.
I'll be molding her up today as well as some little ones she sculpted last night.
These are not canon but real cute. I'll post picks when I get home from work.
 
Here they are. Meet the missus and kids:

Those are bloody cute! I hope that the entire family gets offered as a set.

They are cute aren't they. Funny how things seem to coincide but I've just stripped my worm to repaint him and then Mum and the kids show up.

Interested in Mum and the kids.
 
Sorry for the late update, but I was able to mold the wife and 4 kids. These are a bugger to get out of the mold, but came out very clean. I still have to mold 5 more of the little guys since my wife got into a sculpting mood and was having fun making different poses and expressions.
Anyway, here are the casts next to the the daddy:

I'll be painting up a couple of these for my wife's customers so I'll post finished pics in a day or two..
 
Mum and dad's eyes look to be about the same size so I'm guessing that the 9mm taxidermy eyes will work for both of them. It looks like we'll need some experimentation to find the proper size for the kids, though, since their eyes are a bit smaller.
 
I got some 9mm "Jay" eyes for my "wife" worm:

I've not hollowed out her eyes/head yet, but they look like a good fit.

With the kids I think you're looking at needing 5mm eyes. Problem there is that I can only find them in single colours with black pupils - I think you really need two colours and the pupil for them to look right.

Partly because of that reason, and partly because I want the kids eyes' to be a genetic combination of the dad's orange/yellow eyes and mum's blue/yellow eyes, I've gone with just painting the eyes.

I've given the kids all the same basic body colour as dad has (and mum will have), but their coloured skin sections are a mixture of dad's dark blue skin and mum's autumn red/orange/brown skin (or at least, that's the colour I will be painting her once her glass eyes are installed), or shades of one of the parents colours. I'm trying to go for skin and eye colours that would actually be feasible in the offspring of mum and dad.

Here's where I'm at just now - fully painted and awaiting hair (I've drilled holes in them for the hair to insert into since taking these pics):

Looking forward to seeing what colour schemes other people come up with. :thumbsup
 
Was there a worm family? It's been so long, I don't remember seeing them...:confused

If so, does anyone have a screen-cap?
 
Well yes and no. The 'Allo worm does invite Sarah in for some tea and to meet "the missus" and kids, but they're never actually seen. This is purely what they might have looked like.
