  • Make these adorable air dry clay gnomes for an easy beginner project. Use Das air dry clay for easy sculpting. You can also add a foil armature (mold) to create your gnome and save on clay. Cones also work well as a base structure if you cover them with foil first. See below for the full-length RUclips tutorial to also watch how to make a female gnome companion.

      Yes, you’re absolutely right if you plan to keep them outdoors. Thanks for bringing that up. I’ve enjoyed mine indoors, so they’ve done fine over the years.

    Hihi this looks so good how can I prevent cracking in the clay when it's drying?

    • @FirstDayofHome
      @FirstDayofHome  11 месяцев назад +1

      You’ll want to make sure the clay is moist enough when you’re sculpting it. I like to knead my clay a bit adding moisture before I start sculpting it into shape. You also want to make sure the clay isn’t too thin. Hope this helps!

      Thank you! Yes, it's acrylic paint. You can try using an acrylic varnish or perhaps Mod Podge Outdoor formula. Here's the full tutorial if you want more details: ruclips.net/video/lIfWjLuXCHY/видео.html

      @Ned-zy4wr I’m not picky. I like paint labeled indoor/outdoor for more durability, but I just use whatever colors I happen to have. There’s a full tutorial with supplies linked on my channel and linked to this video.

      Hello. Yes, it dries over time and cannot be modeled again once it dries. However, you can add water as you work to prevent it from drying out until you are finished. I have a full length video for this tutorial on my channel if you’re interested. ruclips.net/video/lIfWjLuXCHY/видео.html
