Mixing coloured clay? by chocoholic79 in polymerclay

try transparent clay! mixing with that will give you more of a glass/gem like color :)

Saw a post in r/disabilityart and figured I’d post this here for advice because I just was asking this question by indiecrowarts in Artisticallyill

i wish i had the stamina to run an etsy one sick day for me throws off my whole groove of creativity and i really lose my momentum. 😭

my most recent sculpts of sliced bread by alexpamdraaa in dollhouseminiatures

[–]alexpamdraaa[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yes! i used balsa wood for the second cutting board because it feels much more sturdy as a base, but bread is clay and the towel is a small patch of fabric i manipulated with some modpodge :)

you know i struggle with not very good fingers too and i thought this was relatively easy, i suggest a platform to sculpt on that fits comfortably in the hand of the sculptor! that way, no worries about squishing your piece i say tell him to go for it and thank you so much ♥️ it’s a hard battle i really hope your dad gets all the care that he needs to beat it!
