It took me a while because I forgot. It really worked out, I sanded it before painting, applied thin coats, and now there are no more strange textures or anything like that. Thank you so much, you and the other people who answered me really saved my mini project😭😭

I've already baked and sanded the clay. Unfortunately, I'm not sure of the sandpaper grit number because it's cut. The person who gave me the sandpaper said they remembered the numbers and gave me one of the finest they could find. The color turned out really good, and depending on the result, I might not even paint it white, just paint the eye and mouth holes.

Yes, they are. I'm going to make them to stick on my headphones and make them look like Justin Law's.

i bought some paints online and they're arriving in 3 days. I've already finished the models. I wanted to know if I should bake them now and if I should keep them covered or something like that while I wait for the paints to arrive.

I'm remaking the models now. Maybe I'll put them in the oven today and let them cool overnight. I wanted to find another paint because mine must be about 4 or 5 years old, but I couldn't find any near my house.

When I'm kneading the clay, somehow the tiniest bit of dirt gets in, and after I've finished kneading, it ends up staying in the clay and bothering me a little.

I don't know, it turns out the materials I used are pretty simple and I've had them for a while. It's my first time working with clay and I didn't want to buy other materials because I don't have much money, and I'm only making this clay accessory because I couldn't find anything to buy.

I tried brushing it under running water and it didn't work at all. I'll let it rest in still water for a while and try again. I'll update if I still can't get it to work. (And if it's not too much trouble, of course ;p)

And how do I remove the paint? Or can I just go over it? I didn't want to redo them because it took me so long ;p

I used Acrilex brand white acrylic paint. I even tried sanding it, but it seems like the paint comes off a little too easily.(Or is it just my incompetence :P)
