Playful Polymers

Have a random late night post ya'll. I love sculpting anatomical hearts. My biggest regret with this piece is I should have stopped painting it when I reached the second photo. But I wanted to name it look like it was still in the body cavity covered in blood. I definitely over glazed.

Sometime you have to go through a LOT of trial and error to get the results you want. Like a TON! This was the first few attempts at a certain animal for a friend's birthday. Now this friend is going through a REALLY tough time, so I'm giving her the BEST I can do at my current sculpting level. Can anyone guess what creature he is?

My next post will show how my sculpt's base looks and also pictures of his current progress. You'll be amazed at his transformation! I certainty am.

So I have begun a new hobby/hobby adjacent to what I already do. I'm starting to learn to truly play with resin (starting with UV resin) I've always wanted to make unique eyes for my sculpts, or encapsulate small polymer clay charms and one day I want to cast my works to sell multiples.

For now, I am still learning. And although I already see where I need to improve, I'm happy with my results. (^•-•^)
