Description A more closeup shot here .



A collective shot of most of the pieces I've made during the past few weeks. They range from simple shapes to more complex things (I really enjoyed making the california rolls and shrimp sushi XD) - the most interesting thing though, is how you learn a process for each item you make. Some of them required a lot of thought... how to make a certain texture, what part to make first, what the most efficient method is. Overall, very very interesting for me. XD


They're actually glossed and everything now - photos coming soon XD

Working with clay has been a lot of fun, and it's been a wonderful outlet outside of work.

Most pieces are made with Sculpey III, the rest made with Cernit. (I usually mix the two together, for an interesting consistency.) All pieces are no bigger than 1 inch.

Sculpey is very good, that's what I use to make my stuff. Great job on the food charms, very cute! Good use of colors. I also use sculpey for little foods

They're called "eyepins," you can google them and find tons of websites that sell them for bulk/cheap.

theyre so cute! tell me, do you use coloured sculpey or do you paint them after they're baked?

junosama In reply to jawful [2007-07-13 09:13:34 +0000 UTC]

I always use colored sculpey - I avoid painting because sometimes it's difficult to get a uniform texture/consistency.

junosama In reply to Cor-chan [2007-03-06 19:19:07 +0000 UTC]

I used different color clays; I paint stuff that's small, like eyes or seeds on the strawberries, etc.

This is incredible!! Though what is the difference between Sculpey III and Super Sculpey? and what do you use to make the little loppy hooks? I had to twist these screw on ones from existing chains to use on my recent mobile charm. I had a super hard time colouring my sculpey creation Yours look so even and smooth. Beautiful work!! Looking forward to more photos.

junosama In reply to healdria [2007-03-05 23:20:55 +0000 UTC]

I don't know the exact differences between Sculpey III and Super Sculpey - you may want to try googling "Sculpey III VS Super Sculpey" or something like that, see what you find.

The little pins I stuck into the pieces are called eyepins They're super-cheap, you can find a bunch of websites online that sell them in packs of 50+.

I didn't actually paint any of them, they're all made with individually colored clay. I did paint white seeds on the strawberries and stuff like that, though.

healdria In reply to junosama [2007-03-06 12:06:47 +0000 UTC]

Ah~~~I see. Thank you for sharing that I was having so much trouble painting my Super Sculpey charm. Since they said acrylic will be fine, but it just doesn't stick
Just thought that choosing my own colours to paint with is better than to be limited by the colour they come in. I mean you'd have to have quite a few different ones to be able to mix the colour you want.
