I've been making these polymer clay figures for a few years. I sell a few locally and give others away as presents. These were the inspiration for the polymer clay caricature pen I entered in the Summer Extravaganza Slimline contest. These figures are 6-8" tall. Made from Super Sculpey, baked, then painted. I typically make around 30 of these a year.
The biggest challenge of trying to do a pen like this was making the figure "pen sized." It was really hard to get any detail in the pen figure. Something else to work to improve! For reference I've included a pen photo.
