Paper Cement Clay Update - Is it Really Weatherproof for Outdoor Sculptures?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 фев 2023
- A lot of people are getting anxious to know how my experiment with the paper cement clay is working out. I put up the recipes in July, 2022, and then made the sculpture of a toad sitting on a squash leaf that you see in this video. The toad has been outside since early August, in hot sun and very cold snow. The snow melted enough for me to find him this morning, so I checked to see how he's doing.

Several people have created sculptures with the recipe, including Michele's lizard, Anthony's Frankenstein's monster, and Janice's very tall giraffe. I'm sure there are more, and we hope to hear back from them in the spring to find out how well their sculptures are holding up. I'll put links to those projects on the post that goes with this video, here: www.ultimatepapermache.com/pa...

Longtime ceramic's teacher here -- with your upcoming airdry project, since it will be on an armature that's nonabsorbent, the outside surface will dry and shrink faster than the inside touching the armature. (you probably know all this already) So you want a very long, slow dry - like in a sealed plastic box with crumpled up newspaper that's NOT touching the piece so the water in the air has somewhere to go where it's then trapped in the paper. Then change the newspaper every day for really dry paper. If there's cracking on your piece after a long dry, you can water-down your clay and brush it lightly on the piece and start the slow dry all over again -- but you would lose detail.
Great tips! I didn't know that. I'll be sure to try it.
Could a larger project be stored in a cardboard box that is changed regularly?
@@ms.construed1305 Not sure. It would depend so much on humidity, but you could try. Good luck!
@@joanbennettnyc I will… I think placing a plastic mat on a floor and covering it with a box.. I will post in5 months results.👍🏽 i could use a dehumidifier also. I’m going to make a big project and will use a mesh frame, but I will test the mix with finely cut plastic/ foam.
@@ms.construed1305 I'm thinking about using a dehumidifier as well.
Thank you, _so very much_ for posting this update. You _really_ are the absolute Queen of sculpting. Can't wait to begin my garden flower pot revitalization this spring. It's all because of your beautiful & practical clay tricks & experience sharing. Hope you all stay warm, dry, snuggly & safe my friends. 🤗💕💕💕
You are so welcome! 😊
I am so glad to see Mr. Toad has held up so well. Thanks for the early update. I was actually anticipating his results.
Me too - I'm a little surprised that he's held up so well. But now I'm getting really excited about making some outdoor sculptures. I should plant a few flowers to go with them. 😊
I did not expect to see Mr. Toad until spring. It is good to see that he has done well. I bet he appreciates a day in the warm house. He looks good. It is so cool that you are still willing to try new things and share the results with us. You put out a great disclaimer. It has been snowing here in north west Wisconsin since noon. I hope that it will not be as bad as they say.
Our snow is supposed to start tomorrow - but the weather usually goes from West to East, so I don't know why it reached you first. Maybe it's coming down from Canada? Dang - I just checked the weather report and it's supposed to get down to -17 on Thursday. My poor chickens! 😟 Stay warm!
I feel shy leaving those kind of comments, but I just wanted to say, that I love this toad sculpture. He's so cute ❤️
Thank you! 😊
I really love your sculpted toad on a leaf! He’s gorgeous!
You're such a joy to watch.
Your toad is fantastic!!!
And you are a master with eyes!
Thanks for the update. I'm glad it held up. I'm looking forward to making something for the outdoors. 👍
😊
Your frog is beautiful, it fascinates me!! everything you do, congratulations and thank you for your time...❤❤❤❤
Ma'am i just wanna say that i really respect you. Im a fairly new addition to your community 😅 but i really enjoy your vids. You always have a wholesome attitude. And as a fellow arts and craft lover, you genuinely give me inspiration to go on doing crafts. So thank you and stay well🙏❤️
Awesome!! Thank you!!
Beautiful work and helpful teaching, thanks!
😊
That toad is beautiful. I just subscribed and I can't wait to try something.
I love seeing your creations
😊
Thank you! Looking forward to trying it out!
Hope you like it! Be sure to let us know. 😊
I love this so much, thank you! ❤
You're welcome. Have fun! 😊
Wow Joni, so happy to see that the toad did so well.
Bravo
Thanks! I'm glad he made it, too. I still haven't put him back outside - we got two feet of snow, and I'm too lazy to plow through it to put Mr. Toad back on his bench. I hope your weather has been more reasonable than ours. 😊
Thank you x Great it worked will try x
Wow so amazing 👌
Thank you so much!
I just adore you!!!
😊
So cool, J! I am so happy to see he survived the winter. I'll be trying this is Upstate NY! I SO appreciate this experiment and your wonderful art! I do prefer paper mache and paper mache clay to air dry clay. Can't wait to see what you make.
I hope you'll let us know how your outdoor sculptures hold up in your state. 😊
Hurray for Mr. Toad! I would love to see you create an otter. I don't know if that's doable with the amount and type of clay you have but that's my vote.
Also thank you so much for sharing your talent with us. I watch and rewatch your videos as a way to relax and refocus. You are truly an amazing artist!
I don't have enough of the purchased air dry clay for an otter, but someone else mentioned a seal pup - now I'm thinking a seal and an otter would be really nice outside, made with the paper cement clay. Thanks for the idea - but the otter may have to wait awhile before he gets done. 😊
Absolutely no quarentee but it's nice that it has worked in Minnesota!
Agreed! I can't wait to hear back from someone who is experimenting with the recipe in a desert environment. The sun and heat can be really hard on everything, but I hope it holds up there, too. 🐸
Hi Joni, love your work! 🙏👏😍
Thanks! 😊
He looks fabulous! 👏🏻👏🏻😍 This may sound weird, but I'd like to see a character face in the stem of a mushroom/toadstool. I've used air dry clay before and sometimes it does shrink and crack, but a little slip does wonders to fill them in. ☺️
Mr Toad is still looking good! Thank you for all you share. I am thinking you could make a turtle 🐢 with the air dry clay. TYFS
That's an interesting idea! It even sounds like something that would be fun to make with the paper cement clay, so it could go outside.
@@UltimatePaperMache Yes! That would look amazing😊
I really am excited for this.
I just made your original paper mache clay with the gram weight and I'm going to make your smooth air dry clay shortly. I can't even imagine how much I'm going to enjoy working on outdoor projects.
I did have trouble mixing with my little hand mixer at the end and didn't have dough hook paddles so I'm going to be using a mixing paddle drill bit from now on. With the rate I plan on using the paper mache I really don't think I'll feel like I wasted money, and I can do double batches.
That's a great idea. The pm clay does like to crawl up my beaters, so I sometimes mix the last bit of flour in by hand - but the paddle drill would be so much easier.
i use mostly storebought paperclay (Das) for small sculptures and I got to say; it's been great so far. little to no shrinking whatsoever, and the sanding and carving of details afterwards goes incredibly smooth :>
We'd love to see some of your sculptures. You can share some photos on my blog, if you'd like: www.ultimatepapermache.com/daily-sculptors-group-page
I'm using this recipe to make centerpieces for a Senior Citizen Banquet in late June. This will be an indoor/outdoor item (can't share what it is yet) but I hope that this will work for these items...I so hope this works! Thanks for your help, Joni. I will post pictures when allowed. (my projects have to be a surprise to the banquet, so after it's over, I'll share.) Blessings!
What fun! I can't wait to see them. 😊
please do a baby opossum. they are so adorable! i made a juvenile from your papier-mâché mache but i know yours will be so much better and fun to watch!
A few weeks ago a grown-up opossum was sitting on the top of my chicken house. They have such a distinct face - it would be fun to make one. Thanks for the suggestion!. 😊
I love Mr. Toad. So glad tes holding up.
I believe the shrinkage rate is about 14% on air dry clay, if I recall correctly, but it's been years since I asked a manufacturer.
When I bought my current house it came with some sculptural yard toads, I suspect some sort of resin with fiberglass fibers in it. It had been neglected for years & had many chips out of it. I tried to fill chips with Durham's rock hard water putty , than I painted with craft paint & sealed with Rust-Oleum clear acrylic sealer . The sealer didn't hold up even the full warm season. My guess is either I didn't put on a thick enough coat. Come spring I'm going to try brushing on exterior polyurethane.
As for a project idea, how a bout a edge of flower pot or shelf creatures ( anything will do, gnome, ant, leprechaun St Patrick's.).
I forgot that St Patrick's day is coming up! A leprechaun would be a lot of fun. I'll definitely put it on my list. As for the sealer, I wonder if you got one that doesn't have a UV filter (am I using the right term?). When I tried using marine varnish in the sun it cracked within a week. If your polyurethane works better than the stuff you tried before, be sure to let us know.
Try Sculptcrete for repairs. That stuff is awesome!
I’ve made several cement paper mache garden gnomes and papercrete ladybugs. I experimented with the ladybug through our heavy rain and snowy days. I had sealed it with Minwax acrylic sealer, the paint did not hold up well. Yesterday I painted a very thin layer of resin on everybody and I think that will be my solution to preserving the paint. I’ve used tinted resin on some hypertufa pots and it has really held up well. I’m glad your frog survived, it’s so cute.
Thanks, Carol. Did you use a particular brand or type of resin? And can it be safely used inside?
@@UltimatePaperMache I just tried a new brand on Amazon, Craft Resin. I like it very much. I cannot small any odor at all, mixes easily, crystal clear and not too many bubbles (if I just apply a very thin layer with a brush I don’t worry about bubbles). Cures in 24 hours but I think they recommend that you let it fully cure for three days.
I really enjoyed your video about this new clay recipe from a while back (I only saw it a couple of weeks ago). My mind tells me I want to call this stuff 'Papercrete Clay'. I haven't had the opportunity to try this out yet as I am still perusing the second-hand stores looking for a robust mixer for making it.
It might be easier to use a paint-mixing attachment for an electric drill, if you have one. I used my really cheap mixer that I keep in the studio, and it worked OK. But it would be better to mix it up outside. The cement is a very fine powder, and it gets all over things if you aren't careful.
@@UltimatePaperMache Yeah...I've got some experience with cement. That stuff gets EVERYWHERE.
I would love to see you make a snail. I know most gardeners hate live snails, but I love snail ornaments, around my garden. Or, maybe make a mushroom. Thanks. ❤
I love this experiment. I've been following it, and I checked your channel today to find a recent update. As far as I can see, this video is the latest. So I'm curious, how is the frog doing these days?
Ooo have you made any insects recently? That'd be pretty neat to see,glad Mr toad is still in one piece,love that lil fella 💕
No insects recently. I'm not sure how to do those long legs with the air dry clay, though...
@@UltimatePaperMache hmmm I'm thinking probably have to use wire and maybe just paper and paste?,oh or maybe that DAP hole filler stuff? Or find a bug with chubby legs 😁😅
Thanks for the update for mr.toad.
I've experimented with your recipe for paper mache clay and has made a non TP clay using joint compound. It's not as strong, but it's oh so very smooth. Talc and Calcium carbonate as filler is great, you should try them. The TP pulp really helps with the structural aspect of the clay though. My approach in making the pulp is using a ratio of 1 part TP to 4 part hot water and then blitz them up. Add the PVA glue and then mix in the dry parts, while adding water bit by bit to adjust the texture .
And without preservative and storing it in an air tight container, the clay is still workable for up to 3 months. It could be longer, but since I live in Indonesia, where it's humid, mold starts to grow. Maybe some bleach or vinegar in the water might help. I've also tried replacing TP with newspaper pulp. Bad idea, it gets moldy really fast.
Looking forward to seeing your future projects!
Interesting tips - one idea for your newspaper version might be to keep it in the freezer, if you have the room.
@@UltimatePaperMacheI think the problem is the ink. I've also tried using printer ink (pigment) to tint my TP-less clay, and that too mold faster than the non inked one.
Great update. I want to make something and then leave it outside without sealing it and see what happens as well, but have to wait to buy the supplies from the local store because they only have the 100lb bag of cement at the moment. My plan is to buy buckets and break it up before loading it in my car. There is a product out there that is also based on cement that does not require sealing and can be left outside; but pound per pound would cost 30 times as much as this method. I did not mention the name on purpose as not to detract from the recipe that you have found. That product also has some kind of fibers in it which if one could find a really fine fiber material might also work in this recipe. Another air dry clay (for indoor use) that I watched a video on that looks to be really good is "Creative Paperclay for Modeling Compound" the video compared several different kinds and found that the "Creative" one to be really good in multiple categories. I had a pet turtle for 32 years so my vote would go towards some kind of turtle especially an eastern box turtle.
I wish I'd seen that review - I might have bought the wrong kind of air dry clay. But we'll soon find out. I recently bought some white Portland cement online in a smaller package. I couldn't use the big bag I bought from Lowes fast enough before it started to get little lumps in it from the humidity. I should have sealed it better, obviously, but I forgot. And I think you're talking about Pal Taya. We have some guest posts on my blog showing how it works, and it looks really nice. But the shipping and materials cost is way over my budget.
Turtles seem to be really popular this month! I will definitely put your turtle on my list. 😊
@@UltimatePaperMache You're right I was referring to Pal Tiya, and you're right it is really expensive compared to using the recipe you found. At least with the cost of using Portland cement one can buy it again if the bag goes bad as you mentioned and not cost near as much at Pal Tiya. Just as a comparison if one bought 80 lbs of Pal Tiya it would cost right under $400.00 while here where I live 100lb of cement costs around $11.00 (of course one needs the other materials but still way cheaper than Pal Tiya). I think one could put the cement in the plastic buckets they sell with a lid from the local hardware store and it would probably last a lot longer (that is what I am going to do to get the stuff home since I have to buy the 100lb bag). Pal Tiya was used on a movie set where they made a fake animal carcass and put it over a real fire pit and it lasted just fine; but I think Pal Tiya is out of range budget wise for most people. If nothing else one could use your recipe first until they get comfortable using cement and then buy some Pal Tiya. Pal Tiya uses some kind of fibers in it to make it stronger so I may have to see if something like that is available to add to the recipe you found.
@@borg9355 I think the Quikwall product (I probably spelled that wrong) uses very fine fiberglass threads to reinforce the material, because it's used in a thin layer over concrete blocks. You might be able to find some to try for your experiments. I don't know what the Pal Tiya folks use. If they would sell just the extra ingredients, and let us add it to Portland cement that we buy locally, it might be more affordable. It sure would cut down on shipping costs!
@@UltimatePaperMache That's a really good idea; but I am sure they are trying to keep everything secret. The fibers they use can be burned off after completing a project if someone wants a finished product that is smoother. So I think what they are using is some kind of cloth fibers or obviously something that can be burned off as I mentioned. Perhaps it is something that could be bought from a craft store.
Wanted to mention a product that I found through another youtube channel that might work for waterproofing concrete items call Drylok. At homedepot it run $34.98 for 1 gal. It's not clear but there is a gray color so for a stone look that would probably work really well and perhaps one might be able to paint over it.
Mr Toad is looking GOOD!
I like that! I'll put that on my list, for sure. 😊
Excited that Mr. Toad held up so well !
Have you ever done a penguin ? 🐧 Might be a fun use for the store bought stuff....?
Thanks! And the only penguins I've made are the ones in my book about sculpting animals with paper mache clay. I've been thinking about making some more, maybe some of the more colorful ones. But I don't know if I have enough store-bought clay for them. It would be a great project for the paper cement clay, though. 😊
For the air dry clay I think a bunny would be nice. And easier to compare back to the DAS for performance. Also, do you have any new mystery books out or in progress?
That's a good point about the bunny! I haven't written any new mysteries lately - they take so much time that I think I have to wait until I'm officially retired. 😊
I’m brand new at this!
Went to a paper mache class and love it but I’d love to try something for outside now!
Which clay did you use for the frog?
I used the paper cement clay recipe that you can find here: www.ultimatepapermache.com/weatherproof-paper-mache-clay
There are two recipes on that page and you'll need to scroll down a bit to find them. I used the first one, that contains drywall joint compound. Have fun!
Hi Jonni! Would be so awesome if you could make a video on how to make a pattern for a mask! 🙏🏼❤️
The patterns take an incredible amount of time to design. Why would you want to make one, instead of just making copies of your mask with a silicone mold?
I think Mr Toad needs a friend. How about an air dry turtle?
That sounds great - but toad lives outside, and the air dry clay would melt if it stayed out in the rain. I love the idea, though - I'll put it on my list of sculptures to make with the paper cement clay. Thanks for the idea. 😊
I love your creations. Would love to see a mandrake from Harry Potter to place in a clay pot.
It's been so long since I watched those movies that I had to go look them up. That would be a great project - if it could be done without violating their trademarks and copyrights. Maybe just do a search to see what real mandrake roots look like, and add a face - we couldn't get in trouble doing that. But if it's going in with a plant, it might need to be made with the paper cement clay instead of the air dry clay I bought, which isn't waterproof. I'll still put it on my list though - thanks for the idea! 😊
I remember in your earlier video that you were going to use Thompson's water seal. Did you seal it with the Thompson's first and apply the Rustolium mate finish later?
No, I didn't use any Thompson's water seal. I heard from several people who thought it was a good idea, but I didn't end up using it.
I would love to see you do a giant flemish rabbit. i have been looking for one to buy but too expensive for my pocketbook.
It's definitely on my list! It would be so much fun to make one. Maybe you could make one, and beat me to it. 😊
Thanks so much for the update! Can you tell us please if you had any feedback from anybody using this recipe in Florida? Also, can you tell us the kind of paint you used on your frog and lily pad that worked out? Thanks in advance.!😊
I don't know the answer to your first question. You can see the posts that people have submitted to my site by using "paper cement clay" in the search bar here: www.ultimatepapermache.com/
And I just used artists' acrylic paint. I just posted an update here: ruclips.net/video/FFJz28S1JoU/видео.html
Gardening season is coming up and my suggestions are a ladybug, a bumblebee or a caterpillar.
A ladybug would be fun! I've found several crawling around inside my house this week - they must think it's spring. We now have three feet of snow, so they're sadly mistaken - but they're such nice little creatures. I don't know how to make a bee's wings with clay, but the ladybug could sit on the caterpillar - I'll definitely put them on my list. 😊
They won't take much clay .. ha ha ... 😂
❤
😊
Its now almost the end of May how did our toad make out!! sooo curious???
I am looking to make a mask for the front of a bike, like a masthead. Does this method make a very heavy or more heavy piece? Thank you
If you support the paper cement clay with an armature made with crumpled foil it shouldn't get too heavy. But it will be heavier than something made with a thin layer of resin.
I use the sculpey Air-dry clay and I sculpt with it and use it for almost everything I do alot of things and it never cracks I buy it at Walmart 2.2lb for $7.00 I highly recommend it
I didn't know they made air dry clay. I really like their polymer clay, but it has to be baked. I'll look for their air dry clay next time I'm at Walmart. Thanks for the tip.
Love you work! I bought your book make animal sculptures. Work on second project so much fun. How about a squirrel or a chipmunk?
That would be fun. I did make a squirrel using epoxy clay, but it's outside so I don't really see it very often. I'll put it on my list. 😊
How about a couple ballroom dancing? A sleeping foal? A Scottish cattle calf? A sea turtle? A ladybug? Oh anything you make will be informative, inspirational, educational and amazing. Thanks again.
I'm looking into paper mache sculpture like you do because commercial products are just ridiculously too expensive, so I want to used recycled paper,cardboard, etc.
That's great. Have you seen my original recipe for paper mache clay? ruclips.net/video/1YQ6eUqcEh8/видео.htmlsi=0qxNiEuft0u1v5WL
I’d love to see a Scottish cow 😁. Pls and thank you❤️
I made a Highland cow, about 8 years ago. Is that the same thing? ruclips.net/video/blo61rAfaGM/видео.html
How heavy are these sculptures compared to full cement sculptures? Half as light? 3/4 as light? Close to full cement weight of similar size?
I have no way to know the answer to that. But 'normal' cement sculptures are not hollow. When we use this recipe, the cement is used as a layer over an armature, which doesn't weight nearly as much as concrete.
Would QUIKRETE Portland Cement work?
Or is it a different beast? 90 lb bags are the only size available. I wouldn't even be able to get it in or out of the car.
I used Type I/II - but I think any Portland cement would work. I recently ordered a much smaller bag of white Portland cement online - I accidentally left the big bag open in my garage, and it drew moisture from the air and ruined it. Those big bags are really too big for me, too.
I would love to see a Mexican tree of life sculpture. Thank you
I've never done anything like that. Where would we find some photos of something like that?
For your airdry clay project, why not a mini sparrow on a branch?
I really like that idea. I'll put it on my list. 😊
How about a spaniel dog? They are so cute with the floppy ears. I’m glad Mr Toad is looking good still.
That would be a great project. Thanks for the idea. 😊
Please give the recipe for papermache clay. Thank you from sunny South Africa.
I know this is really late, but if you haven't found it yet this is the recipe for paper mache clay: ruclips.net/video/1YQ6eUqcEh8/видео.html
Bright colored bird like a pariot
That would be fun. I haven't done that before. Thanks for the idea - I'll put it on my list. 😊
How about an elepant calf?
That would be fun - a brand new one, just born. I'll put it on my to-do list, maybe for this project, or one I do later. It's a great idea. Thanks! 😊
A seal pup would be nice, especially with their big eyes.
That would be fun! I don't know if I have enough of the air dry clay to do it justice, but I'll definitely put it on my list, to make with another material. I'm already imagining what shelf he'll live on when he's done. 😊
How is the toad holding up? Is he ok?
He's doing fine. I just posted an update: ruclips.net/video/FFJz28S1JoU/видео.html
Thanks so much for the update. That is so good to hear. & Thanks for the link@@UltimatePaperMache
I have a little dog that I’d love to see you make a model of. I have painted him numerous times but would now like to progress to a model. He is a mix but mostly a chihuahua.
Hold up... YOU _truly are_ good enough to do this yourself! Maybe, right now you haven't put in the practice? But, you absolutely CAN & SHOULD try this project on for yourself. It's just gonna take a small commitment from you, to you. With time & practice _you_ can make your fur baby for yourself! Plus, knowing your baby's personality you will be able to add those tiny & very special details that no other artist can. Imagine doing him _lifesize?!_ Omg, whatever size you wish!
Seriously, even if you don't have a single artistic sculpting bone in your body, just start out with: a written plan, a few photos of different angles, supplies you know you're gonna use, all the proper materials for creating & storing the dough & a desire to do your very best.
Now, our very 1st try of anything is often our worst work. We don't know anything yet, it's all new & we're beginners. Without realizing it, this 1st piece we make is extremely important. We must save it & lock it away somewhere safe & secure. You're gonna want to look back at this someday & see how far you've come & all the positive progress that you've made. It also reminds us of exactly how you feel right now... unsure, scared, completely outta your comfort zone & excited to learn! Don't let it get you down, don't criticize your beginner pieces, they're not supposed to be good they're learning pieces, they ARE your 1st of many practice, practice, practice pieces. Eventually, you _will_ have a version of your fur baby that you are proud of _AND,_ a very fulfilling sense of accomplishment that you _never, EVER_ thought possible from your own art before.
Any new hobby doesn't have to consume you either, simply setting yourself up at a corner of your table for just 2 hours, once a week, is usually enough. _Imagine_ the boost of pride when after you've failed in "doing the face" 15 different times? When _finally_ you get it _better_ than you ever thought possible?! What else can you accomplish if you put your mind to it?
Just remember, if or when you have a hard day at it, just come here... right HERE to this comment section & talk it out with some of us. We ALL need to start believing in ourselves more. Trying new adventures completely out of our comfort zone, for ourselves truly is the greatest way for us to grow & learn as people. 🤗💕💕💕💕 🍀
I've done a very small chihuahua, years ago. It was the inspiration for my book on tiny paper mache dogs. You can see how it was made here (that's the first post in the series): www.ultimatepapermache.com/chihuahua1
@@Digitalhunny thank you so much for your kind words. I am an artist just getting into sculpting. I paint people’s animals usually commissioned. I am working on a cat (sculpting)at the moment, decorated with all kinds of mixed media. I have done shell sculptures that have turned out pretty good but I really want to try my hand at sculpting.
@@UltimatePaperMache thank you so much I have just looked online on Amazon and found your book. I have just ordered it and look forward to reading it.
I was thinking about doing the same of my former chihuahua.
Can u do a.grinch ???
The Grinch is copyrighted, so I'm not sure how to copy it legally and put it on my channel. I know people do it, but I'm not sure how they get away with it. But you could make one. Give it a try - it would be fun. 😊
Lowe's and Home Depot both sell Concrete sealers. Just another option.
Good point - thanks. 😊
Any new updates???
I just posted an update here: ruclips.net/video/FFJz28S1JoU/видео.html
Great video!! Thank you so much! 🥰@@UltimatePaperMache
How about a turtle?
fairy house out of clay
Easter egg
If I had the patience it would be fun to do one of those really fancy Faberge eggs. I don't have that kind of patience, but an egg with sculpted designs would be fun. I'll put it on my list, for sure. Thanks for the idea. 😊
It'd be nice to see a cat or dog
Hi. I would like you to make an unicorn. I'll be very happy
Have you seen the unicorn I made with epoxy clay? ruclips.net/video/IoZZbS-Pmcc/видео.html
I don't think I have enough clay for one with those long legs, but a baby unicorn lying down might work. I'll put it on my list. 😊
Bear
whos going to give away the secret recipe!!!
It's no secret - the link is in the description. :)
I'd like to see a cat/cat face. Have you ever sculpted a cat?
I made a series about making a paper mache cat. That was quite a few years ago. But a bust of a cat would be really fun. I'll put it on my list. If you'd like to see the cat series, you can see the first one here: ruclips.net/video/XYbEm0uldbs/видео.html
Bird in a nest with eggs
That would be nice. I already have a plan for a hen sitting with a brood, but a smaller bird in a nest would be a nice way to use the new clay. I'll put it on my list. 😊
Cat on a pillow
That would be fun! I'll keep it in mind, for sure. 😊
i dont think u got any turtles, u could give it a try but prob not an outside project :)
Yes, not an outside project, if we use air dry clay. But it's still a great idea - with the paper cement clay. I did make a turtle, about 8 years ago. But I'm sure I'd do it differently if I made another one. You can see the old one here: ruclips.net/video/hrNSCNr2S5Q/видео.html
@@UltimatePaperMache ty vm :) always liked turtles a bit more then others :D
Turtles, tortoises, or terrapins. Any of these would make a fabulous sculpture--just not sea turtles. There are loads of sea turtle sculptures.
Great idea - I'll put it on my list. Several other people agree with you, and I think my toad is going to get a turtle friend, but probably made with paper cement clay instead of air dry clay instead so they can both stay outside. 😊
