Full Dragon Sculpture, Part 2. Wings, foil, and tape!

Polymer clay dragon sculpture, in progress! Now I am even MORE excited then the last video!! Putting those wings on this dragon really helped boost my confidence level.. All I had to do way try, instead of fretting. Still working to keep these video simple, learning is seeing. If you have any questions I will try my best to answer them. It is important to bulk out the armature with foil to save clay reduce complications from baking clay too thick. What happens is the thick part is usually not baked enough, OR, if you do bake it enough the thinner part (like the wings) will be over baked, resulting it possible burning or browning.. The body area will still get a lot of clay though, and I may even add last minute foil if I feel its needed. The tape is to protect the clay from the foil and the clay also sticks better to tape. Also, the seams of the foil can work apart during the claying part. Another reason I add tape.. Have you ever messed up and had to take a sculpture apart? You will have a bunch of tiny foil pieces in your clay, its a mess! Thank you all for being a part of this project, this channel, and for all the help and encouragement.. This all would be nothing without you.. Full Dragon Sculpture, Part 1. Armature wire Full Dragon Sculpture, Part 2. Wings, foil, and tape!
