They Eat...Fish...? Why?

The answer is always omega 3's. Here is a series I made a while ago...their numbers may slowly grow. My images are currently...not...good...or even ungood if one wants to get all Orson Wells on me. But these will give a rough and somewhat dizzy idea.
These are all the Fisheaters all together and hopefully satiated, they live on a small deserted island and eat nothing but fish. They are my only human characters...but they aren't exactly the best examples of their species...and sidenote: neither am I--we're all good friends. All are ceramics with underglazes and a clear glaze over that. As is most of my work, unless otherwise specified such as "made of shards of my broken dreams and the tears of a million goth kids". Oh and that will eventually show up--wait for it.

This little fellow is sporting a stylish mustache. 4" tall--Stachewick. Leader of the island, not officially, but all obey the power of the stache.

He may be obese but at least he has a mouth on the side of his head/body. 5 3/4"--Myers, best friend and confidant of Stachewick.

Apparently if left alone on an island one can grow bunny ears and have no arms, who knew? 7"--Dewdrop, island bunnies are totally hippies and hippie bunny people that live on islands and do little more than eat fish and be a hippie with names like Dewdrop have no friends. Well known fact.
Conjoined twins, they would probably argue if their mouths weren't frozen in ceramics filled with fish for eternity--it's the little things that make you thankful. 4 1/2" Shrub and Povitch, they were born at the same time but both claim to be older. Apparently--not hideously smart...two heads..possibly worse than one. Maybe by a bit.

Has a huge mouth and eyes beside it--not much more to say. 4" --Dweller, sees little use in friends but often gives advice, because if you don't have friends you must meddle in the lives of a lot of people instead of a select few.
I like stacking--'nuff said. 5"--Perry, Judas, and Gomez--named after Biblical figures by someone who skimmed very quickly. They are utterly codependent yet still seek admiration from others--but they never choose the same person, which has both positive and negative sides--mainly that it often involves a crowd.360 degrees of mouth and no arms...somehow that is fair. 4"--Nameless--No friends, no name, just mouth, a whole lot of mouth.
