OddPunks!
I have recently learned how to cast resin, taught by the multi-talented Kathy Davis...
First, I sculpt an original character in polymer clay...
...then pour a mold over the original.
When the mold rubber has set, the original sculpt comes out, and liquid resin is poured in. When the resin sets, the piece is demolded and detailed with paint and eyes, then I construct a doll.
I'm currently making OddPunks and DragonPunks.
'Punks have resin heads and feet, and the pieces are assembled on a soft body covered with faux fur, standing between 4 and 6 inches tall. I'm pretty sure they don't bite, but I'm not making any promises...
My cast resin figures are handmade, but are NOT one-of-a-kind.
The 'Punks are going up in my Etsy shop...and I'll have a couple new dolls in there, too...stay tuned!!
