Description In the next few days I shall hopefully be adding photos of my work that I took to the Peterborough Doll Show.
This piece is my favourite so I thought I would share it with you.
I quite like this sculpture just by itself ( see other pics of this piece ) but since I am a fairy artist I had to add a wee fae

It was my 1st attempt at sculpting a goldfish and I would love to create more.
This little fishie is set in resisn.

Hope you like

Great job !! At first I thought it was a real goldfish, in fact if you hadnt said it wasnt I would still think it was. AmazingΒ

ah I see that you have encountered that pesky line where the different castings meet as well... Great job though! I did mine with Koi and the resign like separated and cracked at the top for some reason. Did that happen to you as well or no?

Fairykist In reply to teh-powerness [2013-01-03 12:56:08 +0000 UTC]

lol yes Those LINES ! grrrr !!!
The resin didnt get separated, but the glass itself cracked maybe due to the expandsion ?? Hmmm alot to learn before I attempt another one. Its one of my favourite creations too.

You got cracking too?!! I got cracks too but they appeared on the top of the resin. I was so upset when it happened too I was like: "i was happy with how this was. Fully content to deal with the mistakes that were already present, and then you went and cracked!"

Why does resin have to be so difficult?

Hands down THE most incredibly lifelike sculpted fish I've EVER seen. I tried (and failed) to steal this at the Peterborough Show. You really have to see it to believe it! The way it magnifies is just BRILLIANT! You should definitely do more fishieeeees!

How did you make the fishy? out of what materials I mean? And I really love this, it's incredibly realistic.

I sculpted the fish from polymer clay.
And painted it with arcylic paints.
Glad you like !
