The bottom three pics are the pumpkins in paper form. The above pic shows what they look like once the clay has been applied.

ReplyDeleteWhat did you use to keep the shape when drying?
Hi Anon,
ReplyDeleteI stuff a huge plastic bag with newspaper, cover it with paper stripes, dry, and then carve the face with the stuffing still in it. Anything I do to the pumpkin, I do it once the face is carved while the stuffing is still in it. That way if it gets re-wet it, keeps it's shape while it dries again and you can kind of monitor what is going on inside the pumpkin. You do have to be careful that you get it to dry quickly at this point, because it can mold rather fast with plastic bag in it. I hope this answers your question. Feel free if you have anymore.
They are looking amazing. I can't wait to see the finished product. I always love to see your creations!
ReplyDeleteThe top picture looks like the creature that imprisoned Sasori...
