I Made More OOAK Polymer Clay Art Baby Dolls

Okay, so that's the fancy way of saying I sculpted some more clay babies!  I really enjoy working with the clay and forming a little doll, but so far, they don't really come out looking like an infant, which was my goal.  I got a new kind of clay (FIMO rather than Sculpey II) and it was nicer to work with, although it got lint covered easier/faster.  I still need to improve but I do think I got a little bit closer!  I need more work on the limbs!  I found a tutorial on how to paint the clay creations using acrylic paint (which I had) and to attach the hair with Liquid FIMO (which I also had). 

So here are the latest two clay babies:

Cody
~5½" tall, soft body, jointed



 

I broke his finger off



The limbs on the left are unpainted and the ones on the right are painted
 






Deborah
All clay body, 2½" tall. I also knit her some little accessories.

Becky these are amazing! The detail is fantastic! You should market to crisis pregnancy centers for baby (fetal) models!

The detail on Deborah is amazing... she really reminded Matt & me, too, of an unborn baby.

I like your new background! Yay for The Cutest Blog on the Block, right? :)
