Spring Flower Horse – Part 3

by EvaMarie | posted in: konst | 0

It was really a very time-consuming work to create all these small flowers and place them onto the body of this horse. But now it is finally the time to make the mane and the tail. Of course they will also be created in polymer clay, and for them I will use a kind of quite simple cane.

Chunks of polymer clay in magenta, yellow and blue. — I use FIMO Professional clays in the True Colors system. That means that I can mix any hue I want out of them. Here I have cut some chunks of magenta, yellow and blue and placed them on my working table.

Sheets of polymer clay in mostly green hues. — Mixing colors in polymer clay is just like mixing water color or oil color. Here I have mixed some differens greens, and I have also some bluish, brownish, magenta and white. By rolling the clay through a pasta machine, I get these sheets of conditioned lay.

Round polymer clay cane. — I used these sheets to create a round cane.

Two polymer clay canes. — This is what the cane looks like when I have cut it in half.
