Ok heres Dads first attempts at using airdry clay :)
As you can see they are 1/24th scale miners .....amazing job I think. I cant wait to see them painted .
My fisrt attempt at using 2 part resin ...quite happy with the results and its a lot less complicated than I expected it to be .
Attempts at translating jewelry making to a smaller scale....things have to be simplified a lot .
another pic of the jelly ....ha ha bloggers at it again mixing up my pictures.
Here I used "triple thick" on a watch.....as you can see the ink ran, but the strap is looking quite effective.
Rings.....
The start of a bangle.
I used an empty pill pop out to make the ring box.
This is my attempt at making a template .....the squares are 1cm .....dotted lines = fold , solid lines = cut .
Your father's creative abilities are impressive. I look forward to seeing them painted. Thank you for your template. I will try and make one.
ReplyDeleteWhat is it that makes resin so difficult to work with.?

Thanks Wyrna , I thought I had replied to this but its dissappeared ...again.
DeleteI was told resin was hard to measure acurately the 2 parts. I solved this in small scale by using syringes to measure the components.
Oooh the jewellery is SOO adorable!! Amazing work yet again! Love your dad's miners work too - A LOT of talent in your family!! Can't wait to see them painted.. and also excited to see your jewellery on display in the 'room' you are obviously creating :)
