The KING PIG

Let's start with the KING shall we? This is one of my favourites, and many of my friends and supporters said it is so too. What makes it so realistic? It's the:
1. color-- Add Yellow clay to Green to achieve the lime green effect. 2. The placement of the different parts of the face (eyes and ears are particularly important). You like the Bomb? Its varnished so it looks shiny.


Whether you do clay as ahobby of for business, don't forget to ENJOY it. Otherwise, it becomes a drag. Cheers!

The entire cast!!!

The Paradigm has Shifted

I just love paradigm shifts. How about Angry Pigs instead? Here's a symbolic representation of Brainy and the King pig in a reversed situation.
In order to do the smyrf figurine, mix the blue from the container with white to lighten it. The King pig is lime green so we must mix green with yellow with a ratio of 2-1. The shapes are generally. Spheres into droplets. Fot The Pig's crown, we of course use a pair of scissors :-)

How to do a Macaron tutorial

Macarons, as i have researched, are really challenging to make in real life. But the clay version of it is relatively easy! I should have uploaded this two years ago but was caught up with other projects to upload this one. Anyone who has watched my tutorial on how to make a COOKIE would most definitely know how to make a clay macaron. Macaron OR macaroon? This, i think, is a common question. However, i think i have found a good source to explain to us the difference. It's best explained in: http://www.yumsugar.com/Macarons-vs-Macaroons-8038818#comments. The Title is: "Burning Question: Is Macaron Another Spelling of Macaroon?" I quote: "A macaron specifically refers to a meringue-based cookie made with almond flour, egg whites, and granulated and powdered sugar, then filled with buttercream or fruit spread. The delicate treat has a crunchy exterior, and a weightless interior with a soft ending that's almost nougatlike in its chewiness. To add to the confusion, it's often called a French macaroon. In contrast, the word macaroon is a generic phrase that is applied to a number of small, sweet confections. Mostly, the term is equated with the the moist and dense coconut macaroon, which is composed of egg whites, sugar, and dried coconut, piped with a star-shaped tip, and often dipped in chocolate. The coconut macaroon, or congolais, as it's known in France, is frequently served during Passover because it contains no flour." Anyway: The tutorial is uploaded to Youtube.
