Clay softener (a liquid) can be applied before baking to help smooth the lumps and finger prints in clay. Sanding after baking helps even more so when used in conjunction with the aforementioned method.

This is SO ADORABLE!!! I just love the circa 1990s family photos.😂 Next time you use polymer clay, try warming it up in your hands and kneading it for 2 to 5 minutes until it’s really soft, that should get rid of a lot of the problems you seemed to have at the beginning of the project, and it makes it so much easier to smooth.

If you want to make him more cuddly, I saw a video of someone making a little "jumpsuit" to go over the wire, stuffing it with.... stuffing, and then sewing the jumpsuit closed (so it's a little squishy body!).
