Made these guys at the same time as the snow rabbit but wanted to give them their own post
[ID: Two simplified polymer clay figurines of Christmas-themed dinosaurs. The first is a white Stegosaurus with a rounded body and multicolored bulbs, like those that would appear on string lights, for its back plates. The second is a light green sauropod with a wreath around its neck. End ID.]

An update on the Bratz rescue:
She's been freed of her nail polish lingerie, very carefully!
And, per her remaining permanent marker spot, gold paint has been added, and her eyes and lips are glossed for shine.
Now, she also had only the one sad boot, and I don't have any Bratz shoes at all-- so I've gone ahead and made her some shoes out of polyclay. Happily they fit her and she can stand tall again!
Progress!
A little paint detailing--

From start to finish, here is Rynn commissioned by @/Krysiilys on Twitter! This is one of my Custom Chibi Sculptures done in polymer clay. The holes you see in her noggin are for the wires that would be put there to support her spiny crest.
Here she is with a little material on her, just to solidify the pose and direction of the final shapes. My sculptures are baked multiple times as I go.
Here I've added some muscle mass, the spines, the wires that would later become the horns, and her toes! Look at those cool raptor claws on her back feet!
I tapered the spines and horns using Cosclay so the tips would not be too fragile. I'm still learning the capabilities of the material, and here is where I found out that Cosclay does not sag under gravity like Sculpey or Fimo does! The spines of her tail and that lovely blade at the tail's end where made entirely from it, which is useful against accidental tipping and falling over.
Ears!! Also entirely made from Cosclay, they were shaped and indented before putting them on, and then later fortified and touched up with a little more clay.
I started the painting process before posting the final sculpt edit, but here you can see the details on her horns, also done up in Cosclay! Plated layers on horns are already a very delicate procedure and this took several hours despite it being so tiny a detail!
And here she is, Rynn! It was so awesome to be able to work on this character as I've looked up to Krys for a very long time as an artistic inspiration. Rynn's shapes and details were also really fun to play with! Thanks for looking and hope you enjoyed! uwu/
Commissions for these are closed right now as I have a long waitlist and I hope to make some inventory for myself and sell at conventions in town. If you'd like to empower me to not have to take commissions and be able to do this, I have a Ko-fi and reward my Tier members with first access to Shop items, free stickers, and one-time art gifts as that's what my FT job and art workload currently allows. Please consider joining if you'd like to see me make things like fan-art sculptures!

got me all this polymer clay to make clay dragons in my free time :D I haven’t done clay stuffs in sooo long I’m incredibly excited!
buuuut when ordering these I completely forgot that summer is right around the corner and it’ll probably end up being way too hot over the next couple of months, so my projects may need to wait for cooler days. I already tried to do a small test run and this stuff is way too fresh/soft in my warm hands and warm weather. still happy to have them though, been wanting to make claydragons for ages :D

I made a little vegetable marker thing so I wouldn't impale my face on the end of this metal pole...

Listen to me. Look into my eyes. Christmas pudding hedgehog.
[ID: Three photos of the same small polymer clay figurine of a hedgehog. It has a round, mostly dark brown body with a lighter face, and instead of spines, on its back it has white icing topped with a holly berry and leaves, making it resemble a classic Christmas pudding. End ID.]

Another sweet little Gem Friend, very content, shiny and very minty! 💎
For those who are wondering, these are truly ethical gems - they're made out of clay and all made by yours truly. 💚
This one and a couple of other sweeties are currently available at maidarlingdesigns.com. Will this one be your new bestie?
