OMG this stuff is lumpy. Still rough--she's sandable, which is nice, and I was able to get eyes in her last night. I have not begun to ear with her ;) Here's Benny, who is all white normal sculpey. I started him while I was waiting for Tasha to dry a little, and to see how easy Sculpey was to work with compared to LaDoll. The sculpey is harder to deal raw with because any touch mars it, but I am hoping once he's cooked he'll be sandable as well. I need to go find refs for both of these, so far I have just been poking at them with a crochet hook and a letter opener without much to look at. Benny is updated now, though still not finished . At least he is NS now.

Akutenshi7 came over last Sunday and brought, among other wonderful things, No. 18 of Dollybird magazine, which is mostly in Japanese but also stuffed with easy to follow photos. So instead of climbing on a ladder and dealing with this: I sat in the kitchen with a package of Das Paperclay and made these: I was not deterred by the fact that mine looked like pretty decent asteroids for a model of the Solar System. I got out the quinacridone red and painted them with a base coat: The color helps a lot. Encouraged, I went on to make more, plus a few ship's biscuits, one moldy with Mr. Weevil: While they dry, I need to do some actual work, or scrape the driveway.
