Description A few days ago I finished Baltra's OC "Kemutora"
And here's the making of.

The clay I used here was an air drying elastic clay.
Elastic means it was a bit harder to sculpt with it cause of the rubber basic.
Also I used acrylic paint here.

For questions just ask me ;D

hum... dry the teeth with a hair dryer and stick them into the soft mouth. after the mouth dried add more of the clay to fix the teeth

I use a clay that dries on air. But it's delicate, not as sturdy as sculpey.

I've used some two-part epoxy. It seems to hold perfectly now.

Dayu In reply to jennykiba [2008-12-26 13:50:44 +0000 UTC]

What kind of clay did you use.. and how do you fix the cracks if its dry? Also on the 2nd last picture of the dog. Is that a brush or pen?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Dayu In reply to NekoParadise [2008-10-26 12:40:08 +0000 UTC]

well that clay is not that special. Once it's dry I can add fresh clay everytime I want. So I fix the cracks even if the clay is dry.
I bought it in a craft store.

that thing there is a pen, right.
