\"Polymer<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Okay, I’ve been working on an idea using white polymer clay and alcohol inks in both liquid and marker form. I wanted them to be free standing and collectable. Tallest one, the guy, is about 4 1\/2″ tall. The small singing head is about 2 1\/4″ high and has a removable, exchangeable saying bubble.,<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The girl was the first one I made and I wanted the white face with black wash and color for the hair and clothes.\u00a0\"Polymer<\/a><\/p>\n

I think the black wash was a bit too much, so I made this guy and didn’t use as much black, I like it better.\u00a0Looks more like ceramic or stone.<\/p>\n

The dots in the background are from a new technique design block by Sculpey<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Polymer<\/a><\/p>\n

Both of the larger figures are made with scrap clay, (yes I do have real scrap clay that looks like mud, some scraps are \u00a0just not Stroppel Cane material hehe) covered with white Premo. But even I<\/strong>\u00a0will run out of muddy scraps at some point, so I made a smaller one made entirely from new white clay. Needless to say I’ve ordered more white clay.<\/p>\n

\"Happy<\/a>I thought how much fun it would be to be able to use these as little greetings. Happy Birthday, Mother’s Day, etc, etc. I even make it so that you can remove the saying and replace it with another. (no it’s not my birthday). How about crazy funny off the wall humor?<\/p>\n

This one I decided to try a little bit of color on her face, and it’s okay, but I like the other finish better, for a signature “look”.<\/p>\n

I’m still playing and wondering if it would make a good class. I think most of the people that took my Sun class at Fandango made some great faces and I know these faces would be just as successful. \u00a0I’m having a blast and my head is full of all kinds of new ideas with these stand alone, Stand Up, characters.<\/p>\n

More later.<\/p>\n
