Vegetables

(From “Fast polymer clay” bye Sue Heaser.)

The only deviation I made fromt he instructions in the book was to add small brown stalks to the parsnips and carrots. I’m not sure if this helped though. Next time though, I would use a slightly darker clay for the potatoes instead of the biege recommended in the book.

The leeks and the sweetcorn aren’t from the book (and there is a picture of the basket but no instructions). I thought I’d try them out ans see how it goes. The main mistake I made witht he leeks was that I made the area for the gradient too big. So, I had to cut it to shorten the gradient and this made the transition to white far too strong. For the sweetcorn I tried to get the same effect that Angie Scar gets in her tutorial but my green is too bright. Also, I didn’t quite get the layering right, though I’m not sure what went wrong. I’ll have to try again on that one.
