I decided to remake the #castleinthesky pendant I shared a little bit ago. I wanted to see how it would turn out with the experience I’ve gotten since I made the original. I think it turned out really well. It took me forever to get a color I liked. Once I did, I finished pretty quickly. Since I already knew what I wanted to do. The clay is #premo in this one. Colored, mostly, with #alcoholink . I wanted to see if I could keep some of the translucency of the clay. I did use a little #pearlex pigment to help get the color the way I liked. I couldn’t get as dark a color as I wanted, at first. After a number of failed experiments, I started searching for info on color theory. The secret turned out to be adding purple. I added some #glowinthedark powder to try and reproduce the way the stone glows, in the movie, when it’s powers are used. I used the powder from #polyclayplay , because it has a grainier look after its mixed. The particles may be larger than the LIT and don’t mix as easily. #necrosculpt #polymerclay #jacquardproducts #jewelry #studioghibli https://www.instagram.com/p/By66cMcAQk_/?igshid=1pqqf1giw9a5t

I got an interesting result in my #turquoise mixing #experiment Using #glowinthedark powder for the green not only gives a nice color, it keeps the glow! #polyclayplay #premo #jacquardproducts #pearlex https://www.instagram.com/p/BwgQ7ebgIQA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1i58a8reylq93

Reposting this now that I found a UV light to charge up the #flourescent streaks. When I first started using it, I wasn’t real impressed with the strength of the glow. It is a LOT stronger after being charged by a #uvlight . #premo #sculpey #polyclayplay #pearlexpigment #jaquardproducts https://www.instagram.com/p/BqPSA5Cg-bE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16psh6lm0dby0

The LAST batch of translucent #premo and #pearlexpigment mixture samples. For now, at least. #jaquardproducts still makes more, but I think I’m satisfied with the 40 or so I have. For now... 😈. The last 3 aren’t pearlex, I kept the two vials of metallic powder when most of necrodad’s art supplies were being donated to the local high school. The fluorescent powder is from a site called #polyclayplay https://www.instagram.com/p/BpeJG1iBStw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zevw3z0xiy66

There’s #glowinthedark clay in this piece. This one is made of, maybe, a dozen different pieces of clay I had left over from other projects. The green streaks are translucent #premo mixed with dayglo powder from #polyclayplay. Haven’t got it as strong as I’d like, though. I included the in process pics so you can see how sanding and glaze can improve it. #polymerclay #sculpture #jewelry #pendants https://www.instagram.com/p/BoI1iy8Bhn3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2amte3hos3v7
