This is a short explanation for above mentioned workpiece. If you want to create a workpiece by yourself 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 white clay.
A metal form (thin lid) was covered by green clay (meadow). The egg covered in tin foil and white clay was firmly put on this layer.

The head and tail were made of tin foil first and attached to the egg before covering it with clay! The hand and paw are modelled lateron.

By adding cracks, flakes and tears it looks like the cyclops is just emerging from its egg.

Apples and flowers are added for decoration.
