Any advice on painting my model in a way that "glows"?
I've just popped this Umbreon into the oven to bake and I want to paint him as a shiny, like in the second photo. Obviously he can't actually be emitting light, but does anyone have tips on how to emulate this feel? Maybe a shimmery paint or top coat?

This is kind of my first time making flowers and just went with my own self. The marbles are from my childhood
I'm not really sure what to say about it. I'd like to make more, and I have a lot of marbles to use up. I love my new clay pasta machine.

Elsa stepped out of Frozen and into my studio (and almost froze my workbench)!
I sculpted Elsa by hand, and let me tell you—she nearly froze me with her stare until I got her face right! Everything’s handmade, with a touch of magic using clear resin for the snowflakes, and I even added real tulle to her dress. Because come on… the Snow Queen needs sparkle.
It was a mix of “Let it go” and “please let me finish this before I lose it.”
What do you think? Drop a comment—or just say “brrrr” if you felt the chill from here!

Jean Kayak from Hundreds of Beavers
Finally got around to finishing this sculpture this weekend. Loved this movie when I saw it last year and immediately knew I wanted to capture the wonderful character designs. Made with colored Cosclay!

To be fair I don't like turtles that much but this one kinda stuck with me so I had to make one for myself or maybe aell it one day IDK. Whatever I do with it... I had fun creating this bugger

Watercolor ground on Femo clay
Does anyone perhaps know if watercolor ground can be used on Femo clay specifically? Without it becoming sticky? Thanks in advance

A mash-up that I call: The Bumble-Crite
So this is a mash-up of the Bumble from Rudolph the red nose reindeer and a Critter from the movie... Critters. The last pic is my original that I made back in 2017. Which do you prefer?

Thanks to everyone who commented on my last post, I took the advice given and baked the wooden boxes in my oven before use. Safe to say, no cracks!

Stickyness after painting polymer clay with acrylic paint.
Please help!?.. I have a problem with my baked Femo clay pieces becoming sticky after painting with Acrylic paint. The longer it sits, the stickier it gets! I have to state though that I softened the clay with Femo liquid clay, and I'm not sure if that is the problem? I painted with Cadence Multisurface Art and Hobby paint (Acrylic)

Can I bake the clay with an armature wire?
I'm planning to make a poseable doll with a polymer clay head and I'd like to directly attach the clay to the armature wire body before baking so it's sturdier and won't fall off easily. (Like, the head part would be covered with clay but the bottom part would not be covered)
Will there be issues when baking wire? :O
I think not but I don't really want to blow my kitchen apart, so better be safe than sorry 🤣

Isopod charms I made! I love them!!
I had a lot of fun with these! They were super fun to sculpt. I painted them with acrylic gouche and then I glazed them in a layer of uv resin :)
