Description First experiment with the use of liquid sculpy other than for glue. I love how this came out, and I saved the wings from epic fail ^^ Im not sure If I'll be using this method much more, but it sure was fun

The wings are made from liquid sculpy which makes them translucent and flexible with hand painted details and blue glitter veins. The body is blue glittery clay with pearl EX powder along the top.

5" from wing to wing, 3" long

Sculpy clay, liquid sculpy, acrylic paint, nail polish (blue glitter), pin

You've made a great work with this. It's really detailed and looks good. I think you should give another try to this technique cause this result was good!

Oh wow, those wings look excellent! That TLS turned out very transparent! I have used it once in awhile and mine was not nearly that clear.

The veins are painted on top, and not the bottom. I had originally messed up and put a shitload of pearl ex powder on the side I was originally gunna use so I had to improvise. I read if you bake it at 300 instead of 275 its supposed to be clearer though
