Such a calming, peaceful video. You are not just an artist, you are a therapist. The music was perfect, too. Thank you.

That foil though, that was an important bit, the lips and nose are easy... said no one ever.

Hei! How many clay did you use for this piece? btw, I'm in love with your art and keep up the great work!:]

[@tugcekarakus9716]

Oh why did u just skip the nose and eye part? How could we figure out the process?

[@jasonjarred5198]

Tuğçe Karakuş yeh kinda the hardest part!

[@sandiablo360]

lol, glad someone said something

[@tigertoxins584]

I was going to comment on that, this video kind of sucks in that regard but the facial structure part was very useful, this was my first time sculpting a face. My advice is you can do the same thing she did on the lips, put a cut in there, open it up gently and stick a round piece of clay in there as an eye, pre make it or do it in the socket at that point, it's your choice.

[@imsorryforarguingbut4555]

It was pretty obvious though-

[@TLRB86]

this is about the 9th video ive watched in a row that skips the most important parts... beyond frustrating...

[@leococo1718]

You can watch my Video to it skipped the part too but you just have to make a triangle for the nose with 2 wholes

[@hahaeunone2386]

This is really gorgeous craftsmanship. I have a problem with never ending up with a smooth surface and needing to rely on sanding to get out the jaggedness and dirt (why does my cat have to shed 24/7) it has been getting slightly better as I take more time but still a nuisance :d

[@VanPham-vl6nu]

so true !!! I personally don't like the sanding process because of the dirt that can make your work area quite messy plus it can affect your health if you don't wear mask. However, sanding will leave the surface a more finished look plus easier for painting on.

[@SomethinSweetShop]

have you looked into odorless turpentine to smooth the surface? trovarion on youtube said he uses it after a wire tool, check it out:) I personally use sanding, and chemical sanding with acetone. get a tough paintbrush dip in a bit of acetone and sand fine areas with it.

[@VanPham-vl6nu]

Aw, thank you so much for the tips! I will definitely check out the odorless turpentine one. I would prefer rubbing alcohol rather than acetone because of the smell but for sure either one work perfectly fine :)

[@xannybannany6056]

I only just got into this. I know it's late but I like replying to people. My answer is that, I think alot of people have to sand because it gives the maximum smoothness.

[@aerialtaprootanalysis6117]

what kind of polymer clay is this? Looks amazing btw!

[@creativetips97]

Nice. Wish you had showed more of the detail work. Did this had the go into the oven at some point to harden it?

[@vanilarts]

polymer clay needs to be baked in an oven to be able to harden

what is the liquid thing she applied with brush.?

[@berain8917]

Ariuntsetseg Samdan maybe that is clay softener , the creator did reply other comment that she use it for smoothed surface and clean the dust

[@crystalm4324]

Could also be ‘liquid sculpy bake and bond’ - excellent for blending joints between small pieces and smoothing intricate surfaces with a brush.

Hi! I like it. I want to try but what kind of clay did you used? And the last thing you put on the sculpture what is that? Thank you!

[@VanPham-vl6nu]

Hi Judith, I used polymer clay (Sculpey Living Doll) which become hard when you bake it. After sculpting I usually use liquid clay to smooth out the surface before baking. Hope it helps! :)

Emily Kumar depends on your clay, you might be using soft clay. Try using hard clay. I have the same problem sometimes lol I always get the wrong consistency

What was that thing you used at 3:48? Then it was baked right after right?

[@blanceatscake281]

it was baked after and I'm not sure what it was but I think its either water or rubbing alchohol cuz she said in her other vid that she uses rubbing alchohol

[@Stopinthenameoflove]

Can i bake this in a regular oven? Can you elaborate on that part?

[@VanPham-vl6nu]

Yes you can. When you buy polymer clay, there will be instructions on the package :)

[@crystalpiche4122]

but what about the foil and wire?can that go in the oven or do you have to cut the head open and re-attach before putting in the oven?

[@mimipancakez4700]

Crystal Piche No. Its fine for that to be in an oven. You know how people bake food with foil and stuff. Just dont put it in the microwave.

[@apreetybutterfly7190]

Whats the fluids u r using to make that head wet kinda look

how do you connect the head with the body and the legs, the arms?

[@radrishab4890]

Do this clay at home ?

[@VanPham-vl6nu]

I used polymer clay and the brand name is Living Doll Sculpey :D

[@taliaakkus8638]

Is there an alternative for using aluminum foil?

[@lucygray6162]

The foil is what most doll makers use. It holds the wires securely, doesn't burn, and allows you to apply the clay bit by bit without shifting. Also lightweight, considering it's strength.

[@EllePlowPlow]

It also makes it easier for the piece to bake evenly to avoid getting cracks.

Can you still put it in the oven, even with the tin foil in the middle of it?

E123 1 - yes, it’s better to put tin foil inside large pieces rather than trying to bake through a large lump of clay evenly without cracking it.

Will this clay explode if it had airbubbles

Hi Sesh, it won’t explode but definitely will leave a bad shape. Just make sure you press the clay really hard to the foil once you sculpt. Hope it helps :D

[@nataliatals7165]

Everything physical has space inside it will definitely crack if you over-bake it. Research best baking instructions for the specific clay that you buy on Google first.
