This is a short explanation for above mentioned workpiece. If you want to create a workpiece please follow the step-by-step instructions under courses (navigation to the left).
This creation has been made out of Fimo and Creall-therm. Both kinds of clay can be intermixed.This round polystyrene foam form was first covered in tin foil to keep the form intact and then covered in blue clay.
The paws are attached to the body using pieces of electricity cable/pins. Its neck contains a roll of tin foil. The core of the head is a little ball of tin foil covered in purple clay; this has been attached to the head using a wooden pin.

As decoration I have used two eggs, marble structure. One of them is also a support, as some of the heavier creations can fall or sag when heated.

The eyes are made of glass. They do not deform as plastic eyes do sometimes.
