Description
Say hello to Heart of Winter! This little snowy dragon is a winter spirit with an aloof and icy demeanor. A true ice queen! She is a glittery, snowy white with translucent icy horns and wings, and she bears an iridescent snowflake gem on her forehead - the source of her ice-based powers. Heart of Winter also wears a black necklace inset with a sparkling ice crystal - a reminder of the long nights and icy expanses of her frozen homeland.Crafted from colored polymer clay and Swarovski crystal elements. About 3 inches long and 1.5 inches tall. Heart of Winter has already found a home, but you can still view her listing if you'd like to see some additional photos.
Snow, ice, and frost

what is the material you used for translucent horns? 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's polymer clay, just like the rest of my dragons. It comes in translucent as well as other colors. For this dragon's horns and wings, I used translucent Pardo art clay. It's the clearest of any of the translucents I've tried. Premo White Translucent is pretty good, but Pardo is undeniably clearer. I totally understand the desire for clear near-transparent sculpting material - I spent a long time trying different things, and this is the best that I've found so far.

This is amazing! I love the pose and regal sense.!
I have a question! How do you make the horns so translucent? I have an ice dragon in stock to make and I don't know how to do the translucent highlights on her.

I think pretty much every polymer clay brand offers a translucent clay, but the amount of translucency varies depending on the brand. In this case, I used translucent Pardo art clay. It is the clearest by far.
You can do a web search to find some translucency comparisons that other people have done, complete with pictures. I found them helpful!

Okay, thank you!
How does the White Translucent Premo work?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's pretty good as long as you keep it in thin pieces. If you make thick pieces with it, it turns kind of yellowy and not so clear. I recommend baking a few test pieces to see for yourself.

Okay, thank you! I might add some light blue to it.

Yes, that's translucent Pardo art clay. It's much clearer than any other brand's translucent clay. I love the stuff!
