Second clay layer complete!

I've now got the second layer of Super Sculpey complete, and I've bulked it out a bit in the right places. There are some slight imperfections- well, not really 'slight'. Yes, my Absolem does have ten legs, but they don't quite match up perfectly. I think one is there just for support. But it doesn't matter, it's Alice in Wonderland, nothing has to make sense. He'll look fine in the end. Also, the whole construction is a little off. A real caterpillar wouldn't look like that. But I'll just keep saying it- it doesn't HAVE to make sense. It's Alice in Wonderland. Nothing ever really does, which it how I like it. Unless you look for it.

But now for the exciting part. Next, I finally get to start adding the color clay, which is really exciting and stressful, because here, I can't afford to mess up. This will be it. How it will look to everyone. No mistakes! It must be perfect, or as close as I can get! I'm gonna start with the legs, then cover the back, and work my way up, doing his head last, the most important. Then I will start on the hookah, which should be a lot easier. Wish me luck!
