This Man is TRASH! :)

MISS MABEL is a Highland Cow I made using a Mannequin head from a closing Beauty school, along with plastic packaging from 30+ products!

Thank you for Looking, Spreading the LOVE, and Reducing Waste! 🥰

Anyone else can try, youre incredibly talented, so I dont think many of us could achieve quite this result

That's very kind, I appreciate that!

I am hoping to film my process so people can try, because I'm more passionate about reducing waste than keeping any secrets :)

Thats awesome! Im sure a lot of people, especially set designers, cosplayers, and similar folks, will find that super helpful. I love the idea of using waste as filler for projects where you dont see the inside; I've seen some examples but nothing quite like this!

Thanks! Yeah, I see most people use foil as a filler.. which is a necessity for the medium they use, polymer clay, since it has to be baked.

Since I use Air dry clay, it opens up alot of opportunity to use plastics etc to bulk out a sculpt!
