Sculpting challenge, Day 141! Pony continued!

So tonight I am baking the pony! It's in the oven right now actually.

I did some smoothing and tweeking, but for the most part I had all of the sculpting done. I added a groove down the back of the head to root hair into, and a hole for the tail. Then I trussed her up so that her legs would stay in position for baking, and made up a cushion so she could lay down without squishing her giant ears. lol

Since I always have trouble with two part baking (with a short standing bake), I am trying to just bake it lying down. Hopefully this will make it so I don't have any trouble with the sculpt falling over, and I hope that the amount of cushioning I put under the body will be squishy enough to keep everything safe.

We shall see soon enough!

I took some pictures before putting it in to bake. :3

My sculpting materials!

I've had a few questions about what I use for sculpting (it's sort of a common question), so I thought I would take a picture of what I use! xD



I often use Super Sculpey, and it's what I usually use on human sculpts. I use it on animals sometimes, but I more often use Premo on them. I have Fimo and a few shades of Sculpey III that I have for jewelry, and I often mix in a bit of Fimo for colour mixes if I don't have the right shade in Premo. :3

A note on my pony sculpt! It looks like it baked just fine! I ended up baking it a bit low yesterday so I baked it a bit longer tonight to make sure it was completely baked. Then I couldn't do too much with it otherwise until it was completely cooled. I did find the doll hair that I have though! I thought I had blonde, it's actually brown. lol I don't think that's bad, it was just surprising!

I need to paint the pony tomorrow and put in the hair!
