Nikki, I did try the coctail stick but I kept poking bits of clay out with the pointy end he he, need more practise! I will try another following your tips Nikki to start it off bulkier and sculpt out rather than adding loads of bits. I started with the eyes, added the nose then lips and then added cheeks etc, and tried to blend it all but it was tricky that way! I dont think Id attempt little things like Candles as Deb did, but for bigger items it adds some character to more boring accessories in the house! <BR/>Nikki, was up at 6.30 this morning, we call our youngest '6 o clock Lacey!' Were in the park by 8 o clock this morning , now back, snuggled up with coffee and danish pastries to spend a lazy day in! Thanks for the lovely comments and all have a great weekend, John and Kate xxWhittaker's Miniatureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17548993983143295938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8460526063111576797.post-53031391152071785712009-03-14T10:46:00.000+00:002009-03-14T10:46:00.000+00:00What a lovely thing to wake up to, 2 blog awards, ...What a lovely thing to wake up to, 2 blog awards, WOW!

What you have made looks fantastic and just proves all my theories about faces.<BR/>Next time you make a face start with the nose and blend in, then the rest just falls into place.<BR/>Rather than trying to add bits on to bulk out the face as you go, before you even start the nose pad out the eye area, chin and cheeks and smooth before the nose goes on. It just makes the creases and folds easier to create.<BR/>The only tool i use is a cocktail stick.<BR/>Nikki xnikkinikkinikki72https://www.blogger.com/profile/05767492628469316379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8460526063111576797.post-5802219408448653402009-03-14T09:40:00.000+00:002009-03-14T09:40:00.000+00:00Kate & John there is an award waiting for you ...Kate & John there is an award waiting for you over on my blog.<BR/>Kate well done for your first attempt with the faces. <BR/>Mini HugsDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05868240147335139452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8460526063111576797.post-23989193132000185492009-03-13T23:31:00.000+00:002009-03-13T23:31:00.000+00:00Hello yu two...I just awarded you with the Sisterh...Hello yu two...<BR/><BR/>I just awarded you with the Sisterhood Award... details on my blog...<BR/><BR/>Love your blog<BR/><BR/>JodiCreager Studioshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13614188104491419238noreply@blogger.com
