Dearly Departed Souls WIP

Polymer Clay Sculpts...Next Process is to add their wire skeleton then hands & Feet...


I use 18 gauge wire

i find this gauge keeps them standing firmly and they are still easy to pose




Time to go in the oven

I use a dixie paper plate in a 250 oven for about 10 min



He's been painted and his limbs have been wrapped with strips of cotton batting

He is now a She...I added Hair and clothing....not quite done...but near
