    I’ve been casting my brains out. Getting experimental with casting in different ways. Glow in the dark, swirled colors, opaque/clear combo. I pour one color, then mix and pour another color to create colors that are in the plastic, not surface paint. Lot’s of unpainted pure plasic toys as well as a few with Black…

    Many times when I make resin toys I use Super Sculpey Polymer Clay because it is easy to fire at home in the oven. However, I really prefer making the original out of glazed ceramic so that my toy has a slick glassy look and feel. I also find real clay to have a better…
