I don't take commissions right now but sometimes I will sale already finished sculptures directly to people that ask.
My ebay page is here- [link]
I try to list on ebay every other week or so, mostly on the weekend, but sometimes it goes months without any new auctions.

Thanks!
I used oven bake polymer clay. I use a mix of different brands to get the working texture I prefer. Normally it's a mix of kato and sculpey III but I think this one also had cernit mixed in. For this one there is a good amount of the translucent clay color in the mix which lets some light pass through the thin spots. The shine on her tentacles is from gloss clear coat.

I'm not sure but fimo might also have a translucent color... haha! I guess you would have to look and see what's available where you shop.

thats the smaller problem.
some of the shops order for costumers if they know what it is and what kind of material. others have no idear about it.
thats why iam was asking you about the stuff and the name of the material ^^

Fantastic! Great idea, very beautiful done - simply perfect! But why she is looking so sad? Would she be more happy with a fish tail?

ladymeow In reply to Sweetrosali [2012-11-01 21:37:26 +0000 UTC]
Thanks! haha.. maybe she would be happier with a fish tale though I'd imagine you could do more with octopus tentacles.

Sweetrosali In reply to ladymeow [2012-11-02 07:31:57 +0000 UTC]
That's true. And a lot of mermaids got fish tails, so she is very special and also cute with her tentacles.

Yes! lots of fun to make but also a lot of work putting all the suction cups on.

Dopplegager In reply to ladymeow [2012-11-03 04:16:33 +0000 UTC]
I didn't realize that those were actual suction cups. Pretty neat.

Thank you very much... though I have to say the idea came in part from Disneys little mermaid.
