Terms for using my tutorials
When using my tutorials or techniques explained in my tutorials all I need is that you say or write "Inspired by Talty" somewhere on the description, that's all I'm asking for. A link back to my gallery or tutorial is appreciated, but not necessary. You can make anything in my tutorials for personal or commercial purposes (yes, that means you can sell what you make) but you can't claim these techniques as your own. No redistribution, reposting or repacking of my tutorials, images, text or any part of them is allowed. They can't be translated to other languages without my permission (ask me about it). FREE TUTORIAL, NEVER TRY TO SELL IT.
---------------------
UPDATE: The amazing ~Snowfern pointed out some mistakes I had made about the baking times. She explained to me why it was important to bake your items at the correct temperature, for the right amount of time. Even if your minis look fine, they're raw in the inside and they will deteriorate overtime! Not immediately, but in a few years they will crumble... so please, I can't stress how important it is to learn to bake your creations correctly!
I am sorry everyone for the mistake, I hope I didn't cause trouble

MY MOST AMBITIOUS TUTORIAL TO THIS DAY IS FINALLY COMPLETED.
One of the tutorials that helped me the most when I was learning how to make cakes was this [link] by Betsy Niederer
If you still have trouble understanding how to texture the cake, I recommend you see this video [link] by *fairchildart
Cake brush by ~Nana-viciouS
Cakes are one of the most complicated things I do, so the tutorial ended up being quite long... actually they're not complicated, they're quite easy but they involve many steps.
This took me months to finish, months! I took the first photos 3 months ago, and the last one just a couple of days ago. It was getting ridiculous: the more I advanced, the more I felt the need to take a new photo, explain a new technique, revise everything... I had to stop myself from dragging the tutorial any longer. It's finished, but I'm sure that I'll want to revise it again in the future.
Well that explains why the lightning is so inconsistent. I'm sorry about that, I hope it's not too annoying.
My next tutorial is going to be something quick and easy or I'll die

What's the rule to use to figure out how long and how hot to bake the cake?
π: 0 β©: 1
Talty In reply to Soleospace [2012-08-27 17:44:55 +0000 UTC]
Use the instructions on the package, each brand has different rules so follow whatever the package says

Colie915 In reply to ??? [2012-08-19 03:32:03 +0000 UTC]
Wait, 20 parts translucent to 1 part yellow? That seems like a lot of translucent @_@

Talty In reply to Colie915 [2012-08-20 21:19:51 +0000 UTC]
it sounds like it, but translucent clay is like... water, let's say. It only requires a little bit of paint to color it, and if you use too much it will stop being translucent.

hola talty, oye una pregunta, apenas hare mi primera adquisicion de arcilla polimerica, estoy luria jejej y estoy leyendo tutoriales para aprender a usarla. me he dado cuenta que comentan muchisimo que con el decko gel de Fimo obtienes efectos traslucidos mejores que con TLS pero no encuentro donde comprarlo, en el nuevo fenix y mercado libre solo hay Sculpey
donde lo compras tu??

Talty In reply to ginajaja [2012-08-13 19:43:25 +0000 UTC]
