It's been... 4 years since my last journal entry. (The one ranting about gloss on figurines and the enlightening Ice Resin xD) Where does that time go?
It's also been 4 years since I've had an actual summer break without classes!!! On the outside, I've become a nerdy nursing student, but on the inside I'm still an even nerdier clay-prodder who wants to hang out on dA
I think it's finally safe to say I can actively be crafting and updating my gallery again. *Dusts off Etsy page* If anyone's down for a commission or trade request with me, sure why not? My fingers are just itching to craft something, anything. I've been deprived for too long!
Ice Resin.
I feel like I should just write out my revelation in case any other polymer clay-fanatic stumbles across this.
So, as a lot of you know, I use a varnish to glaze all my projects called Varathane (polyurethane, water-based, etc. etc.) It totally beats the 'clay glazes' they sell out there, because it was meant for wood and sometimes furniture and stuff. It's very resilient and protects paint very well.
However... I've finally come to realize that Ice Resin is what it'll have to be now. (Jewelers grade.) Varathane Varnish can stain. It may accumulate dust if you're not careful (you can clean it off, but that's still annoying), and it can lose
Summer and Etsy
After a really long and tiring school year, life finally begins again for me. So yeah, this here's just a heads up for all of you waiting on my dead etsy store. It's open again :) And yes, all the usual items in my gallery will be offered - pony charms, Slendy, and probably some of the newer items as well. If you see something you want available from my gallery or a custom, just let me know and I should be able to arrange it ^^
Well now that that's settled, I'm really excited to get back into art after being forced to cut it off for school this whole semester. I did well and whatever, but studying is just so draining. I feel like these times
I want to join a contest...
(Figured I needed a new journal entry anyway, considering the last one was about reopening my etsy for two weeks...in January...)
Contests are lyke, my thing. Not because I expect to win them, but because they give me an excuse to craft wildly new things with wildly awesome designs. I love trying out OC designs, really! It gets tiring sometimes to run an etsy that's based entirely on fandoms and known characters, ya know. And oh, trivia time! Did you know that when I craft an OC for a contest, I actually send it to the host for free regardless of the winners? Like I said, I honest-to-God just want to craft something new.
Except there's a pr
The Etsy is Completely Open Again! ...For 2 Weeks!
Etsy Store | Commission Information
See the link above to go check it out! But anyway, yeah... I've been a little out of it (lazy) since I got out of school for the holidays, and suddenly I only have 2 weeks left until I'm forced to go back! But I figured I should do some good-quality sculpting while I still can! The infamous items have returned to the listings in my etsy, including the Rainbow Dash and Rarity charms. I've missed doing made-to-orders... So bring it on! :D
As I do realize how badly school kills me though, my etsy will cease to exist again once the semester starts in two weeks. Those of you interested in commissioning me befo
