Project 4

For this project you were supposed to walk for five minutes and find something natural and make something.  I walked for 45 minutes and came across this rock. I thought it  looked like a turtle shell.  I already started painting it, the right photo, when I remembered to take a picture.

I made the body out of polymer clay

I gave the "shell" about four layers of paint and airbrushed brown on the top when I was finished.  This is after the second coat

My finished project.  Don't you love that I worked so hard on the realistic shell than stuck googly eyes on him.  I am supposed to put him back and let someone else find him,but he is so cute I don't know if that is happening!
