Today I'm bringing DAY 5 of the 13 Days of Halloween series with this White Pumpkin Polymer Clay sculpture. :o)
How I made my sculpture...
When I work with a polymer clay, I work on the glass surface plate I have. I find the glass to be best surface to work with the polymer clay. It's also very important to have clean hands, as the polymer clay picks absolutely everything from your hands or working surface.
I softened a night glow polymer clay with my hands. Polymer clay has to be softened, as it's not possible to work with hardened polymer clay.
Then I made a ball from an aluminium foil and wrapped the polymer clay around it. Using my hands and glass working surface, I shaped a sphere. Using various modeling tools, I shaped the pumpkin. From a tiny piece of the polymer clay, I made a stem and attached it to the pumpkin. Lastly, I scratched the pumpkin to get nice skin texture.
Then I baked the pumpkin for 30 minutes in an oven following producer's instructions.
After 30 minutes of baking, I put the pumpkin to cool on air for 15 minutes and it was finished. :o)
