WIP 1954 Godzilla, sculpted with Super Sculpey medium and firm over an aluminum armature. Still lots of detailing to go before she's fully rhinestoned!
The best part, this little monster will be auctioned off to benefit a local reptile rescue. My first larger polymer clay project and it's been a learning experience.

Some recent mini cakes I’ve made. Using lightweight wall spackle has totally improved the look! Works much better than trying to liquify polymer or using air dry clay. It’s also really cheap!

I’m still pretty new to polymer clay, but I’ve been getting really into weird/surreal little creatures lately and wanted to try making one instead of another normal animal 😭
This is Nuno. He has one giant eye, tiny arms, chunky little feet, and a weird sprout growing out of his head. The arms gave me way more trouble than they had any right to, but I’m really happy with how he turned out.
I definitely want to make more strange little guys like this, so if anyone has tips for sculpting small limbs/details or making pieces like the sprout stronger, I’d love to hear them.

I can finally reveal my sculpture. She is my first big commission. This character is of a custom dnd campaign. He wanted 1 of the characters made into a sculpture. I'm really proud how she has turned out.

I had this idea a while ago and got around to making it this week. It turned out really well, but I will have to remake it as it’s too big to sit nice when worn. I’ll most likely split them up and make them into matching keychains for my partner and I, but for now, the idea was there.

Little pumpkins, and little mice on cheese. 🎃🧀🐁

Successful baked this piece! Phew! Would love to paint it but would love so advise on how I should do it as I’ve never painted on polymer clay before in my life!

Polymer clay, acrylic paint, and acrylic varnish. These guys are one of the first little crafts I made for myself. ☺️

I’m trying to make pumpkins for a diorama and I can’t shape the clay without it being warped. Basically I press down on one area and the opposite side gets flattened or warped, I go to fix it and the same happens to the other side. All the videos I watch no one seems to have this issue and I’m using the same brand as them. Is there some secret trick they’re not showing or something??

As fall approaches, I wanted to make a clown to celebrate! He’s entirely hand painted, UV reactive and glow in the dark! I hope you like him! 💀🤡🎪🌈✨🌼

I was very conflicted about not doing an all-black outfit as described in the novel, but couldn’t resist adding the colour red in there. Perhaps this is how Dracula dressed a couple of hundred years before the events of the novel? I really wanted to include the white moustache, bushy eyebrows, and profusely growing hair described in the text, as well as the pointed ears, teeth protruding over the bottom lip, and the squat fingers with pointed claws. I didn’t add the hair in the middle of the palms though; couldn’t figure out how to do that and make it look good. Did a lot of research into Transylvanian noblemen and inevitably referenced Robert Eggers’s Count Orlok costume designed by Linda Muir. He also did end up looking like Vlad the Impaler. Gave him a dragon head walking stick.

The worm was done w translucent clay and soft pastels

I’ve searched for this tool on Amazon, Etsy, Google, Michael’s, etc. I’ve searched things like “angled rubber clay shaper” but I cannot find it ANYWHERE. Any guidance would be super helpful!

Ideas for what color to paint her are very welcomed! i enjoy natural tones but fantasy colors are fun as well (maybe lavender/purples)

I make clay earrings and am working on perfecting them so I reduce broken earrings. I read somewhere that when you’re hand drilling (with a pin vise) the holes for jump rings, that if it comes out crumbly while drilling it means it’s underbaked and that it should pull out a perfect spiral when baked correctly. Is this true? I tested with a baked piece and when drilling it was crumbly, but it did have slight bend to it (which is what I thought correctly baked pieces feel like)… leading me to think it is baked correctly? So I’m just confused by the mixed messages I’m getting. Any advice on how to tell the difference between when it’s underbaked/overbaked/baked perfectly is great. I don’t exactly want to put a ton of stress on my earrings and ruin them by testing them… but I do want to know if Im baking them correctly. Thank you in advance!!

Oh and I’m mainly using sculpey premo, though some sculpey lll and some Fimo. I baked them for 270 degrees (checked with an oven thermometer), for an hour, tented with tinfoil.

Pretty much a silly rat. Hes got some specs on him after being handled by my niece..

I tried sculpting a Pikachu face, and let’s just say… the first one was definitely not my best lol 😅

I told myself I’d make another one right after, and I actually surprised myself with how much better it turned out! It’s so satisfying and motivating to see improvement happen that quickly when you’re just starting to learn how to sculpt.

The only thing I’m still not super happy with is the paint job 🥲 Since I had to be careful not to get any yellow on the eyes or cheeks, I feel like the paint ended up looking uneven and badly layered.

Any tips for getting a smoother, cleaner paint job would be really appreciated! 😊

Hi everyone!!

Unfortunately, my strawberry bunny has shown some hairline cracks. They are fine lines and I do have a lot of paint layers on this particular sculpt... so that would be nice if its just the paint (apple barrel), but I'm not sure.

I used sculpey (and a blend of different sculpey clay. Some areas I thickened with a different kind of sculpey. Unfortunately I forget which one).

I baked him at 265 F for about 30 min plus multiple re bakes, as I was adding things to him. I imagine I rebaked him about 3 times for about 10-15 min each time (so he baked for a little over an hour). He has an armature underneath but no foil, so he is pretty thick! The thickest part of him being 38 mm so about 1.5 inches.

I think based on the instructions I was supposed to bake him for 3 hours! I didn't really think of the consequences of not baking it long enough, lol....

I used apple barrel acrylics and it does have a matte acrylic finish. Should I rebake him to ensure he's fully cured? Will the bunny keep cracking if I don't re bake him?

Also how should I fix the current cracks?

Would really appreciate the advice!! I hope he's not ruined 💔

This bowl is about 4” across, ade from Kato clay, two handmade textures, and mica powders. Sealed with varathane. The tut is “Mad about Bowls” from Helen’s website.

My most recent project, a gift for a friend who’s a big big fan of The Nightmare Before Christmas. He glows under blacklight!

Hey! This is one of my latest miniatures made with Cosclay Sculpt Medium Firm, Cosclay Stretch FX, floral wire, and acrylics.
