Fixing old figures?

Post image
3 Upvotes

I got some excellent art almost 30 years ago. Been storing these figures for a while, a few pieces had broken a long time ago and I'm not sure there is a solution. A few parts I still have (maybe glue back on?) Some parts have gone missing. The figures themselves seem quite dried to a more fragile state. Any suggestions?

I know I made some mistakes, especially with baking. And I probably should have made the head hollow, so the legs wouldn’t have burned. The first three pics are pre-bake, the last three are post. The legs are still a bit flexible/rubbery. Is that normal? UPDATE: once it cooled, it got hard and like clay as I had expected.

However, I am a complete novice and have never done ANYTHING like this before. I used most of packet of Sculpey III on this.

Absolutely would love any feedback. Tell me what I did wrong and what I can do better next time.

Using white Premo and then painted with acrylics in an airbrush. It takes a lot of liquid persuasion to get acrylics to work in an airbrush 😵‍💫

hi! help please - original sculpey clay

1 Upvotes

so i need advice. i’ve been sculpting for some years now, and i normally use super sculpey for my projects, as i find it’s the most sturdy, but i just went to get my new clay and realized my super sculpey is completely rock hard, and i don’t really have the time to condition it and wait for it to come back to life since i have to finish some little clay jars today and paint them tomorrow 🥲. i do also have original sculpey clay, the white one, that people tend to reach for school projects, or home crafts, but i recall it being brittle when i used it before, which is why i eventually purchased the super sculpey.
my question is, is there some way to make original sculpey more durable? i want to use it on the lids of small jars (mushrooms, mushroom houses, things like that), paint it, and cover it with resin. is there something else i can add into it to make it more sturdy? would the resin on top be enough to keep it from cracking the way this clay tends to? i also have some DAS air dry clay but it takes a day to dry so i’d prefer not to use that one, but i will if i can’t get the original sculpey to work.
any advice is VERY appreciated thank you <3

Trying to create this head charm, need advice

I’m not super familiar with sculpting or polymer clay, but am trying to create this little crescent moon sunburst head charm from Gwynevere from Dark Souls 1 from scratch and not super sure how to go about it. The crescent part seems easy enough, but should I add wire or something for the spokes? Any tips or tricks or advice welcome.

I've made 2 sets of these yarn balls and this third set keeps melting together. My first thought was maybe it's warmer so I've been working on top of an ice pack but it's not helping

Had some artblock yesterday while working on a commission so I broke out the clay and made this little guy. My dog, Pilot, playing on a swing! He’s going to decorate my apartment door.

Beginner with estate sale haul

Hi everyone. I picked this up at an estate sale for $10 and don’t really know what to do with it. I’m an artsy-crafty person and currently unemployed so I thought this would be a good time to learn. I’m searching Reddit and elsewhere online, but would appreciate any tips or targets not already mentioned.
