  Mermaid in Hearty Air Dry Clay

  This is one of my latest creations. Using Hearty Air Dry Clay the mermaid was hand sculptured. Her hair was extruded using a Makins professional clay extruder.

  The mermaid the tail was layered with Pearlex pigment and Rub N Buff to give a shiny metallic effect. A little touch up with acrylic paint for the face.

  I think I may need to enhance the eyes a little.I used some Fimo Polymer Clay for the little sea creatures around the coral base.

  Hearty air dry clay is extremely light-weight and easy to make delicate figurines like my mermaid withot having to use armatures, It dries to a hard finish and can be tinted by adding a little dab of acrylic paint and mixed in.
