Description
Finished Wolfman,Baked Super Sculpey clay,
as you can see by the dark parts it seemed to cure much faster in the oven than previous sculptures so I actually ended up over cooking it slightly, thin areas go dark from over cooking, but its still in good condition thankfully and very hard.
The Tiny Beretta is actually quite large compared to the Wolfman, my mate calls him "Wolfy", it's a modified Beretta created just for Werewolves large hands, ironically I actually mistakenly made it too big in the sculpting process, but this explanation fits.
Took about 3-4 weeks to make.

Wow. That's just amazing.. it must have taken lots of motivation to finish it, but it totally worth it, it looks really amazingly good!
I'm really glad that the sculpture survived the cooking process, even if it was slightly overcooked.. That's probably why I sometimes like to stay with air drying clay, you would have less risk when it's finished

Thank you! glad you like him!
Yeah I'm glad too, it came out well, and the slight overcooking hasn't hurt it at all, It's been painted with Undercoat and it looks great, all the details show up more clearly, will post some pictures when I can.
Polymer clay may have risks when cooking it, but you just need to make sure you cook it at low temperatures and to watch them constantly while cooking... much like baking food.

You're very welcome- it really looks great!
Yeah, the details really came out well
Hehe, except you don't going to eat the result afterwards!

Lol, imagine someone thinking that the clay was edible, I would laugh if someone tried eating it.
heh, I hardly use the oven either... cooking isn't one of my things...
yet I still manage to cook my sculptures, you just have to make sure to check the sculptures constantly.

That would be kinda difficult to eat- it's rather hard for doing so at least
Hehe, I really dislike to cook (somehow I just have no 'cook-talent' and I always fear it might tastes bad in the end..

I'm not confident at cooking, its also something I don't really enjoy...
Clays usually have some instructions to follow, so I wouldn't worry, also you could always ask for help.

Yep, neither I do enjoy cooking- which is quite strange for woman I guess..
Yeah, I think so- probably I would first start with a test piece, before I would cook the final piece of a long work anyway- just to get sure I don't do anything wrong.

Great work. I don't think the overcooking poses a problem; it actually looks kinda cool with the gradient there. If that's not the case IRL, though, paint will cover it up nicely.

Thanks dude! I too liked the gradient on the ears etc, they kinda look like the real thing.
But now that it's painted with undercoat it looks way better, the detail just stands out amazingly now that its one color, I'll post some pictures soon, hopefully before Christmas.

What do you use as an undercoat?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cant actually remember it now, but I think it was some undercoat from a model shop.

it looks great, the overcooking can be due to be too close to the heating (source), while baking...
But if and when you paint it

Thanks so much!
Well, funny enough, I didn't realize it was too close to the top of the oven, thanks for pointing that out!
yes, that is true, hopefully I can get it painted somehow...

Well the important thing is it didn't overcook until the point it cracked 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
True...did I say it cracked? if I did, I didn't meant it that way, It has thin layers that show up, they look like cracks...or something, I actually have no Idea, they wont show up on the paint job anyway.

You didn't, I just meant lucky it didn't crack if it cooked in some parts faster than others

Oh, I see, It was lucky indeed.
