Sculpting a Pink Fairy Armadillo Bust from Polymer Clay

Time-lapse film of sculpting and painting a Pink Fairy Armadillo. I thought about using wool as fur on this one, but ended up sculpting the fur in clay. In the video, I start from a simple aluminum foil armature and show the progress through several days of working and reworking the whole thing. There is no narration here, so relax and enjoy!

Love it! You motivated me to try harder and practice more sculpting ❤🎉. Also the idea of putting tape on foil is sooo smart ! And I need to know where to buy those tools ? Sorry I can't decide what to type 😂

[@hausofren]

The tools came from Amazon (search Stainless Steel Sculpting Tools). Thank you for your kind words...just keep sculpting and keep pushing to try new things...they don't always work out but you learn so much from the process!!!
