Description Ehehehehe...so I've been testing out polymer clay over the past few months and this is what I've got so far: a simple head on a compostable knife... I'm stilling trying to figure what materials to use for this and that but I think I'm making progress.

This is a test piece so I won't finish it (the hair is only partially sculpted cuz I got lazy) but I consider it work in progress in the big picture XD I still need to figure out how to make glass eyes and find better paint (that's not toxic...XD)

If I can ever master the art of polymer clay, I'll open up for sculpture bust commissions then people can have their OC in 3D but that'll be a while from now

Wow, look at those beautifully sculpted features. And that gorgeous skin tone. Mind if I ask what paint you used for her?

Looking at your deviant art profile, I think I know what you've decided to do with your life, somewhat....and looks like it's art! I want to go to college and major in art, because that's what I'm aiming for with my life. Your artwork makes a difference in the world, what I know/think. I hope one day to become an awesome emotional artist like you, Yuumei. You inspire me. I hope your life gets better, and believe me, it will.

I love the girl's profile. 8) I mean... the way she looks from the side. That's "profile" in Finnish...
Oh, and the lips look just so natural it's almost scary. *u*

It's profile in German, too, so there's a good chance it's the same in another European language like English, too.

This is amazingly beautiful and detailed! I love the lips.
I can't ever figure out how to not squish things around when I'm working on clay. What type of tools did you use?

VampireLouise [2009-05-05 20:24:00 +0000 UTC]

The lips are a little low down i guess. But no one can really complain unless they can make something better!! Might i ask how long this took you to make?

Glass Eyes: You could either buy them pre-made, or perhaps pre-paint beads for use as eyes, and sculpt around them.

You're really skilled at making these head figurines... it's styled really nicely. I could see this kind of model being used for stop motion animation in a film

I like it. I think it's pretty. If had the kind of money it would take for that sort of commission, I would so get you to sculpt one of my OCs when you started taking commissions. As it is, though, I'm broke. *cries*

You should be super awesome coolness and mail me the practice head for free XD

anachancarolkiryuu [2009-04-18 13:53:12 +0000 UTC]

Okay! Critique Week starts today, so that is my inauguration critique!^^

First things first, the head looks good, you just need to improve on the nose and the upper lip of the mouth, and for painting the skin would be great to find some dyes, it don't matter what kind of dye is, of the colors red and yellow to do the cheeks a little bit pinkish and make the skin tone more realistic. The hair you should try making more realistic, with more details, if you want to improve. Anyways, by being a test piece, you can just try some crazy things on it, maybe it works!^^ But if you want to improve, you need to pay attention on every critique that you receive, it will be of great help!

(Sorry for my english, i don't speak very well!^^'

These are probably going to cost a good bit for quality and the fact that it's a sculpture. I hope you will offer anthro sculptures x3.

I think that the only thing I can say about this is that his left eye looks slightly off, but it's absolutely brilliant how you've managed to learn to do something like this!
