That is just fantastic! I would love to see more about your process. How did you get the facial details so, well, detailed? Do you have a tips page? I'm extremely new to polymer clay sculpting and am excited to try any and all techniques I can scrounge up!
> Bellina Polymer clay sculpting is fun! For me it's more trail & error. I correct things at every stage of sculpting. Before baking make sure everything is the shape you want, the ratio you want, as well as at the right position, so that even after baking you can still sand things down, smooth things up, or even add bits and pieces then re-bake.
I am a fan of realism. If you are too it is good to have a few anatomy books (with nice photos) on hand for reference. Sometimes I find drawing things out before sculpting is helpful -- an easy way to find out whether it'll work.
Tips page sounds like a good idea. I shall come up with one in the near future :D
