I've been wanting to post this for a while, but the blog my friend and I are running together didn't go live until yesterday. Since she and I are doing reviews on imported merchandise, I decided to make spreads out of mine. I take lots of photos using my sister's Nikon camera anyway, so the quality of each picture is great! I think it'll be great practice for me.
So here is the first one! Very simple and very clean! My article wasn't very long so I couldn't add as many pictures as I'd hoped, but practice will make perfect! Enjoy.

I seem to really like playing with super sculpey lately. I recently finished Golden Sun: Dark Dawn and loved the game. I particularly love the new designs they give each djinn because it makes them much more unique.
I decided to create Flint, the very first Venus djinn you get in the game. Actually, he's also the very first djinn you get in the original Golden Sun. I've only sculpted him so far and I definitely plan on painting him soon!
The right toe snapped off when I was taking it out of the oven, but I immediately, and carefully, glued it back on. Now it looks like it never even came off! Sadly, its tail sagged and bit and I forgot to fix it. And the bottom of it sort of got burnt, but I'll be painting over that.
Here's the original Flint
Please note that the original picture was borrowed from Creative Uncut and was not drawn by me.
I sculpted some figures during the holiday for a dear friend of mine in California. Mijumaru from Pokemon Black and White (Or Oshawott in the English version). This particular little otter took me a few days to sculpt because the head had some trouble staying on first and the decorations around the neck were...well.. questionable to the main design.
I apologize for the blurriness. My camera seems to like doing that even when I'm telling it to focus.
The second figure I made is Hans from Valkyria Chronicles (a game for Playstation 3) He was much easier than Mijumaru for some reason. I personally like how the wings came out. The ears, to my surprise, were easy after I figured out how to make the shape. I pressed a small bit of super sculpey against the side of my thumb (and nail) and I got the perfect shape!
