I know what kind of clay you use, but other materials did you use?

Hello, i just used standard paints i already had, nothing fancy and a shoe lace for the rope held into place with superglue (just for extra support)
Hope this helps

I have other questions, but I'll ask one at a time. Did you make the design on one side or both sides, if you know what I mean?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yea thats fine, i made it double sided so what you see on one side is the same on the other.

Okay. About the center emblem, you only made one for one side, right?

Yeah just the one, i thought it would look better that way. From the back you just see the star shaped gap and the back of the emblem.

One other thing, do you paint before or after you air-dry the clay?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I painted after letting it dry so the water in the paint didn't begin to mix with the clay.

By the way, what did you use to flatten the clay?

I've got some more questions. For one thing, can you show me what outline you use to draw out the charm?

If i remember rightly i used the concept art for it(my memory is a little hazy as it was a few years ago that i made this), i had a little art book that came with the game. I am sure if you do a search for it you will be able to find an image of it. I used that as guidance and then my eye to make sure it looked right and in proportion to the base.
