polymer clay and cast resin art
Almost exactly 2 months ago, I started creating a Midna Army. Midna is a video game character from the Legend of Zelda game, Twilight Princess. She looked like quite a challenge. I’ve never attempted to make such a complex figurine with so much detail.
I’ve been getting a lot of use out of these surprisingly realistic leaves, so I thought I’d share my process.
I’m glad to see some interest in Lumina Polymer Clay! I’d like to share my thoughts and hopefully answer some questions about this remarkable clay.
I’ve discovered an interesting way to create barbed wire without the tetanus!
You’ll need 3 lengths of wire of roughly the same length to coat with clay: one somewhat stiff craft wire (stiff enough to hold its shape), and two nylon-coated stainless steel beading wires. You’ll want to use longer pieces than you think you’ll need because they end up twisted together. Mix some acrylic paint into a ball of lumina polymer clay to create a lovely shade of muddy dark brown.
I have some new lariat style necklaces for sale on etsy. They’re made of Lumina polymer clay, nylon-coated stainless steel beading wire, and various glass beads and pearls.
This a new technique I came up with. As far as I know no one else has tried it before, so I’m excited about it. I’m very happy with the durability of the clay and wire combination. Continue reading ‘new necklaces for sale!’
