Mantra was done for an art doll exchange over on Deviant Art. The recipient said they liked totem-style creatures, so I got a lovely baku in return for this fellow. ^^

Mantra is made from hand-sculpted ceramic parts and faux fur. And I liked him so much I ended up making my own coyote too, although sadly my fellow's taken some damage in a fall. He sits about six inches tall, but the ceramic gives him a pretty good heft.
