I use a polymer clay that dosen't harden until you bake it and it is pretty reasonably priced. For the details I use clay tools and sometimes a pin. The armature is the "guts" made out of metal wire and tinfoil. dickblick.com has some reasonable polymer clay if you are interested.

Ahhh- I guessed right ^^ Does all polymere clays set in heat?

    That I don't know for sure but I would lean toward yes. Dickblick gives descriptions with each one though. I have to make another dragon! I posted Gorbash today and he is sold already. I am working on another right now.

        He was my first dragon and I sold him for 25 plus shipping. I am working on another one and he is an inch bigger so he will be 28. I like to keep the smaller works 30 or under but there is a LOT of work that goes into them. Gorbash took me 4 days to sculpt,bake and paint.

          I was just going to say that $25 is VERY reasonable. Even in New Zealand dollars, being origanal, that would convert nicely ^^ I'm almost tempeted to buy one if I hadn't just looked at my bank account O.o I gotta stop buying comics!! XD

          No seriously- in the new year, when I have money, would you sculpt me something? I'd sooooo love that ^^

                The red one has a longer neck and is actually free standing. He also has yellow eyes. He is also 4x4 in

                      Cry Yeah- I could be kicked out of my house anytime between now and Febuary- when the buy pays for the house. Apparently their house is on auction this week. If it sells, I'll be flatting by new years Sad On the brighter note, I'm moving to a 3 acre section in Kumeu- a BEAUTIFUL veiw, huge house and lots of fresh air and space Smile
